There was no way she would remember anything from when she was six . But she did . Melanie smiled , clearly enjoying Winona's reaction . " Looks like you remember too . It's funny . " " I ... " Winona tried to speak , but Melanie ignored her and turned to Estelle . " You could've just stayed quiet . Why stick your face in front of me ? " Estelle's eyes were filled with tears . " Melanie , I know you're upset , but ... " Melanie cut her off . " If you want to know if it's real , just get it checked . It's simple . " She looked around the room . " But I guess you idiots wouldn't bother . " The room fell silent . Everyone looked offended . Before anyone could react , Melanie smirked , " But I'm in a good mood . I'll do the test for you .

Menu Estelle had claimed the necklace she gave Melanie was a rare exception . She had to beg Master Lily for a long time before Master Lily agreed to sell it . Such an amazing person actually knew Melanie . And it looked like they were pretty close . Melanie glanced at the Rasmussen family , smirking , " Someone gave me a necklace and said you designed it . " Master Lily paused . " What ? Melanie , I'm mad now ! I custom - made everything you're wearing ! And now someone else is giving you a necklace ? " Hearing this , everyone looked at Melanie .

How did a girl raised by a female escort know Master Lily ? And why was Master Lily so nice to her and custom - made everything for her ? The Rasmussen family was green with envy . Why couldn't something like that happen to them ? " Don't be mad , " Melanie cooed . " The Rasmussen family's adopted daughter gave it to me . A ten - dollar necklace from a street stall . She said it was your design . I just wanted you to check it . " Master Lily stood up , furious . " A scam ? Seriously ? Turn the camera .

" Estelle had tears in her eyes , looking all soft and fragile . If it were a guy , he would've felt really bad right now . Master Lily didn't buy it . " You bitch . What are you up to ? " Estelle's legs went weak , and she cried as she explained , " I didn't know the necklace was fake . I asked my friend to buy it for me . " She turned to Melanie , trying to grab her hand . Melanie stepped aside . " Dirty . " Her tone was completely different from when she spoke to Master Lily . 09:26 AD Kelly Support genuine reading POTE I the princess of the Mafia empire now hides like a trou des View now 1.4 % < Chapter 3 Menu Estelle choked back tears . " Melanie , I'm sorry . I should've checked . It was all a misunderstanding . Let me give you another necklace , okay ? " Before Melanie could respond , Estelle added , " Since you know Master Lily , maybe ask her to design one for you . I'll pay for it . " Master Lily scoffed , " Who do you think you are ? Lanie doesn't need you to buy her anything . If she wanted a necklace , I'd send her a whole carload . " Estelle was left speechless . So was the Rasmussen family . They couldn't believe their ears . Others tried hard to beg for one design from Master Lily . Melanie could get a whole carload ? What kind of background did Melanie have ? " Lanie , turn the camera back . That crying face is bad luck , " Master Lily said , annoyed . Melanie flipped the camera again . Master Lily looked at her pretty face , thinking with a smile , " Much better . People really do need beauty in their lives . " " Tell that girl with the cakey foundation that she'll get my lawyer's letter within two hours.830 thousand dollars in damages . I'll even let you keep it as your allowance , " said Master Lily . Master Lily was clearly furious . She usually talked to Melanie for hours . This time , she hung up in under a minute .
