Carly couldn't believe her eyes as she stared at the necklace on the marble shelf. To get a better look, she took a few steps closer.The pendant had an old-fashioned design with detailed carvings that gave a strong historical vibe.It was obvious that this pendant was extremely valuable. It wasn't something just anyone could afford.Even though Carly grew up in wealth and luxury, she hardly ever saw jewelry of such exceptional quality.Even in the Turner family, she realized that only a few, or maybe only her father, could afford such an exquisite piece.Carly wondered whether Natasha was capable of splurging on something so extravagant.And what puzzled her even more was Natasha's apparent nonchalance, leaving the expensive necklace unguarded on the shelf. Natasha was seemingly unconcerned about the risk of theft.It just didn't make sense to Carly. Her face tightened with unease as she cautiously approached the pendant.She wondered if this pendant didn't belong to Natasha,

Natasha couldn't believe someone had locked the door on purpose. Her brows furrowed as she sensed trouble brewing.She pressed her lips together and immediately began searching for her phone.Austin was about to arrive, and she agreed to attend this event today solely to see him. She had to get to the venue as soon as possible.Natasha furrowed her brows as she searched through her bag for her phone.But after thoroughly rummaging through her handbag, she realized her phone was nowhere to be found.Natasha felt a sinking feeling in her chest.She quickened her pace. Her phone remained elusive even after turning her bag upside down and even laying out her wool blanket on the table.Where on earth could her phone be?Natasha was baffled. She was sure she had put it in her bag.Could someone have taken it?Could someone have not only taken her phone but also locked the changing room's door to keep her from contacting anyone outside and trapping her here?Natasha felt a surge of

"Is that so?" Austin's eyebrows shot up in surprise before a skeptical expression took over. "No way."He couldn't fathom Serranoa coffee being available anywhere else but the Sullivan family's place."It's real. I've seen it myself," Zion affirmed.But Austin wasn't buying it. Shaking his hand dismissively, he said, "Nah, you must have been mistaken."Austin was so sure because Serranoa coffee had strict growing conditions. Across the nation, suitable cultivation areas were scarce.There was simply no way for anyone to successfully cultivate it outside of Topola's Herb Valley.Seeing Austin still doubting him, Zion couldn't help but smile.Giving Austin an encouraging pat on the shoulder, he declared, "I'm telling you, I didn't make a mistake! The coffee looked just like Serranoa coffee. My eyesight is too good for me to have been mistaken!"Zion was no stranger to the world. Even though he hadn't had any Serranoa coffee himself, he had definitely come across it before.Austi

Zion's choice of words was highly inappropriate, even verging on offensive.Yet, the bodyguard across from him appeared unperturbed. He responded with a simple "Okay" before obediently stepping back.Austin was left looking completely confused and surprised.He missed the whole whispered conversation between Zion and the bodyguard, so all he saw was Zion suddenly getting all fired up for no apparent reason.Zion's demeanor and behavior came off as incredibly crude.All of this left Austin taken aback, especially considering Daniel's earlier description of the event's host as a cultured individual with an interest in pharmaceutical research.This was part of why Austin had agreed to attend.There would usually be a sense of mutual respect among intellectuals.But now, this man hardly seemed like a cultured person at all. He was more like a market fishmonger with his gestures and talk.Austin couldn't help but wonder if Daniel was playing a trick on him. The idea of his own son

Daniel was worried about Natasha because she wasn't answering the phone.He looked puzzled but didn't give up and pressed the call button again.He thought Natasha might be busy, so she didn't hear her phone ringing.However, like just now, the phone rang for a long time, but there was no answer.Then, a robotic female voice was heard saying, "Hello, the number you've dialed is currently unavailable."This time, Daniel suddenly noticed something in the content of the robotic female's speech. It said that Natasha's phone was currently unavailable.This meant it wasn't just a matter of Natasha not hearing her phone ring.Daniel couldn't help wondering if something had happened to Natasha.As soon as the thought crossed his mind, he immediately dismissed it.It was impossible. This was a formal medical conference. The security was extremely tight.Furthermore, only wealthy families from Topola were invited to the banquet. So, there definitely wouldn't be wrongdoers here.Daniel
