All Chapters of Fallen Heiress Rises to the TOP: Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

How could Julian Vanderbilt possibly give someone counterfeit gifts?Everyone knew the Vanderbilt family owned the country's largest private collection of antiques.Their vaults were filled with priceless treasures, rare artifacts, and one-of-a-kind jewelry—enough to fill dozens of museums.Which meant there was only one possible explanation.Jill narrowed his eyes and smirked as he walked toward Ariana Sterling."These jewelry pieces—and that antique vase—are almost certainly fakes you bought yourself and passed off as the real thing.""What nonsense are you talking about?" Ariana snapped, clutching the bracelet protectively to her chest. "Do you even know how to appraise antiques? This bracelet alone is worth millions."She refused to believe Julian would ever give her counterfeit gifts.Panicking, she hurriedly called him.The phone rang for a long time without an answer.Only after several mi

AJ wasn't entirely wrong, but Rue still felt a little guilty."We already agreed to buy the entire kiln. Pulling something like this now... doesn't exactly feel honorable.""Boss, you're overthinking it." AJ grinned. "If it were anyone else, sure. But this guy's different. He's J."He went on to explain.J was one of the world's most renowned antique appraisers, famous both at home and abroad. His greatest talent was spotting hidden treasures everyone else overlooked.And it wasn't just Lystra porcelain.There was another incident that the people at Aegis still hadn't forgiven.Years ago, Aegis had purchased a jade mine in southern Myanmar. Unfortunately, the expert they hired had made a disastrous mistake, causing them to sell an entire jade deposit for only five million dollars.Later, it turned out that almost every single boulder from that mine contained premium jade worth well over a million dollars.

Rue couldn't deny that Jill's news was incredibly satisfying.Still...She paused, a puzzled look crossing her face."But why would Mr. Vanderbilt do something like that? It's... really strange."Jill shrugged with a grin. "Who knows? Men from families like the Vanderbilts are impossible to read. No one can guess what's going on in his head."Then she added with obvious delight,"But look at the Sterling Family now. They're in complete disgrace, and the Vanderbilt family hasn't lifted a finger to help them. That tells me Mr. Vanderbilt never intended to get engaged to Ariana Sterling in the first place. I'd bet the whole engagement was something the Sterlings made up themselves."The two chatted and teased each other for a while.Eventually, Jill pouted in annoyance."I don't care. My birthday is exactly one month from today, and you'd better be there. If you don't show up, I'm ending this friendship!"Jill and Ru

Julian had always had an eye for exceptional talent. He had already spent a fortune trying to recruit Roux, sending countless people to invite the mysterious artist to work for him.Every single invitation had been ignored.He had no idea how to persuade someone like that.Tonight only reinforced one thing.With craftsmanship at Roux's level, money meant very little.The artist lived in complete secrecy, and even Skyvault's intelligence network had failed to uncover Roux's true identity.Winning someone like that over was probably impossible.Still...Being able to reserve two of Roux's kilns in one night was already an incredible victory.In less than an hour, the porcelain pieces from those two kilns had already been bid up to over two hundred million dollars.And the prices were still climbing.Julian looked at Rue seriously. "Is there anything you like? I'll buy it for you.""For me?"Rue

Rue stared at the photo her brother had sent her.Standing beside a maid from the Langford family, the man wore a perfectly tailored suit and carried a faint smile on his face.Those deep eyes...For some reason, they felt strangely familiar.Yet his features were far too stern, radiating an air of severity.Beneath the polished appearance, she couldn't shake the feeling that a fierce ambition lurked within him.How could this possibly be the heir raised by a top-tier wealthy family?Something about his presence felt off.Taking a deep breath, Rue quickly typed a message on her phone:[I understand Grandma's intentions and how difficult it has been for her to manage the family. If the family needs me to enter a marriage alliance, I'll agree.]After all, wasn't marriage destined to end up the same way in most cases?At the very least, family-arranged marriages involved people whose backgrounds were known and whose families were w
