“Yeah, you’re a big star. I’m sure he won’t forget about you. You’re just too humble, Jenny,” one of
Jenny’s fans chimed in.
Another added, “Yeah, no one could be that forgetful! I would remember you for the rest of my life if it
was me!”
The young women surrounding them were devoted fans of Jenny. They believed she was simply being
modest when they saw her conflicted expression.
“See? Everyone thinks you’re just lacking confidence… Ah, no, they think you’re humble. I’m just going
to make a quick call, Miss Jenny. It won’t be a big deal.” Pearl smiled brightly.
Jenny gnashed her teeth and didn’t dare to say anything more.

drowsiness, he still looked handsome.
“What’s wrong, Miss Pearl?”
Jenny had been hoping it might be her contact, but she was disappointed when she saw Wayne’s face.
“Do you have Rupert’s Heart with you?” Pearl asked.
Wayne sipped some water to wake himself up. “Yeah, why?”
“There’s a woman here who claims you sold her the watch. Can you verify if it’s her?” Pearl turned her
phone’s camera toward Jenny as she spoke.
Wayne observed Jenny’s awkward smile and immediately frowned. “Who is this woman? I never sell
the watches I collect. You know that, right?”
“Okay, can you show us that watch?” Pearl wanted to make sure no one would accuse her of lying.
Things would get worse if Jenny tried to fool others and slander her.
“Okay.” Although Wayne was puzzled, he took out the watch from his collection cabinet.
Everyone was thunderstruck the moment he opened the box. The watch gleamed with an
extraordinary luster, emitting a faint blue glow, and had a ruby embedded in the center. It was even
more dazzling than the one Jenny had given Dustan.
“Alright, I’m going back to bed,” Wayne said, waving before hanging up.
“Eh?” Seeing Jenny’s displeased expression, Pearl asked in confusion, “Where did you get that watch
from, Miss Jenny?”
Jenny stammered, “I… I did buy it from someone, and I spent a few tens of millions. But I didn’t
expect…”
“Yeah, it’s not important whether you bought a counterfeit item or not,” Pearl interjected. “What’s

important is whether you knowingly bought a counterfeit item. That’s the most disgraceful part!” She
wore a wicked grin. “Why do you look so upset, Miss Jenny? Are you going to faint? Well, it might be
for the best. You won’t have to worry about what others think.”
“Of course not. I’m willing-“Jenny was about to faint, but Pearl’s words left her at a loss. If she fainted,
she’d fall right into Pearl’s trap.
“You’re willing to apologize, right? You’re a public figure, and it wouldn’t look good if the media exposed
this.” It looked like Pearl was reminding Jenny, but she was reminding the reporters nearby that they
could make a big story out of the incident.
Immediately, the reporters caught on, raising their cameras to snap photos and take notes.
“Go ahead and apologize before the media gets hold of it,” Pearl urged Jenny with a fake smile.
Resigned to her fate, Jenny hung her head and began sobbing pitifully. “I’m sorry. I didn’t knowingly
buy a counterfeit item. I just wanted to give Mister Dustan a surprise…”
