Chapter 1323: 610 Sincerity_1 Chapter 1323: 610 Sincerity_1 “Since Ms.
Philbert is so generous, I will respond with the same sincerity.” A soulful voice, as if it originated from the far end of the horizon, carries an unreal, dreamy feeling, lingering in the ear.”
For a moment, the entire luxurious and bustling venue seemed to become serene and tranquil.
Everyone turned to where the voice came from.
A figure slowly stepped out from the shadows.
Clouds cover the haze of the bustling world, but none of it compares to the woman’s beauty.
Her peaceful black attire made her skin as white as porcelain, like an eternal snowpile on a snow mountain, crystal clear, glowing with a cold sheen, exhaling a cold air.
Her calm and dignified steps alone made all the women in the venue feel inferior.
...
Even after a lifetime of learning aristocratic etiquette, they could not match a tenth of her elegance.
What kind of purity and alertness could have given birth to such an elegant creature.
The moment she appeared, despite not wearing a colorful garment or dazzling jewelry, she dwarfed all other lights, makeup, and flamboyant outfits.
Nichole Philbert was stunned and incredulous, “You! how come you’re so beautiful?”
The young lady smiled and replied, “You’re pretty too.”
Nichole looked dejected and shook her head in defeat, “Compared to you, I feel ugly.”
“Why do you compare yourself to me?
No two leaves in the world are the same.
If you always focus on others and don’t attempt to improve yourself, you’ll never discover how attractive you are.”
Nichole thought for a while and conceded, “You have a point.”
Granny Drake nodded in agreement with a smile.
She could hardly imagine that someone so young could possess such clear thoughts.
She learned the woman’s identity soon after she arrived at Aubree Groove.
Although she was the daughter of Pindo Rinto, Granny Drake was not unreasonable.
If Aubree was like her father, it would be a different story.
But it was clear that Aubree was not that kind of villainous person.
Buddhism says: Ignorance propels all evil deeds, and while a person may escape the consequences in this life, they will be accounted for in the future.
Nichole had a point.
Let the older generation settle their grudges, and don’t let the hatred perpetuate to the younger generation.
When will the cycle of vengeance end?
Arwin Philbert was so shocked by her appearance that he couldn’t snap out of it.
He suddenly remembered the scene at the club where Dustin Drake got beaten up.
When he rushed out, he got a glimpse of her disappearing skirt.
So it was her!
Some in the crowd recognize her face, as they frequent the internet.
After a moment of prolonged silence, a voice broke tranquility.
“Aubree, she is Aubree.”
As the crowd started to remember, those who were not from Pethkids or showed interest in the entertainment industry, naturally, wouldn’t be familiar with this name.
However, it didn’t mean they had never heard of it.
But if it didn’t impact their lives, they wouldn’t pay much attention to it.
Some questioned in confusion, “So, who’s she, a celebrity?”
Only celebrities get recognized like this, the tone filled with contempt.
Surely, celebrities are merely performers who can’t be taken seriously.
Why would young master Drake associate himself with such people?
“A celebrity?” the young man who was explaining looked at them like they were idiots.
“She is too good for being a celebrity.
She comes from the wealthiest family in Pethkids, which is vastly richer than Coral Island.
Can you imagine how prestigious it is to be the daughter of such a wealthy family?
And not to mention that she has a nephew who is very influential in Pethkids, Digby Hart.
You surely know him, right?
He’s her adoptive brother, and he gave her the Dreamy Villa as private property.”
On hearing this, people round them gasped in surprise.
“In that case, what about her being the daughter of young master Drake’s sworn enemy?”
“Hush!” The gossiping man had a mysterious look.
“You can’t just talk about that, it’s dangerous.
Just remember that Ms.
Aubree is not to be messed with.
She has the Rintos of Pethkids backing her.
She can easily crush a small family like the Callums.”
Indeed, Pethkids was a bustling and prosperous metropolis, and backward Coral Island was naturally incomparable.
At this moment, everyone looked at the beautiful young girl, not just for her unparalleled beauty, but also for her dazzling charm of wealth and power.
It seemed that owning her could lead to instant success.
This girl was the paradise of all men’s dreams.
“The young master of the Drake family is wise, he has let go of old grudges, and having this woman means he has everything. 𝔫𝖔𝔳𝔭𝔲𝔟.𝖈𝔬𝔪
It’s clear that in just three days, the Drake family will be his.”
Nicholas Drake gave the man talking a cold glance, and the person felt a frightening chill.
Without realizing, he zipped his mouth and hid behind others.
With Aubree making her appearance, no one dared to say much, only marveling at her unparalleled beauty.
“Granny Drake, during my time in Pethkids, I was harmed by a villain, but thankfully was saved by Nicholas.
If it wasn’t for him, I wouldn’t have been able to stand here in peace.
Buddhism says saving one life is a more virtuous act than building a seven-story pagoda.
Nicholas is my savior.
I am willing to do anything within my power for the sake of the Drake family in the future.”
A few light words from Aubree Groove unleashed a storm in everyone’s hearts.
A crucial piece of information was revealed in those words; Nicholas Drake was Aubree’s life-saving benefactor.
It was only fair for Aubree to help Nicholas, so does this imply that the Drakes’s most significant ally is now the Rinto family of Pethkids?
Who could challenge that now?
Granny Drake knew that Aubree deliberately announced this for everyone to hear.
She smiled and nodded, “You’re a good girl, meeting you has been Edward’s good fortune.”
“It’s getting late, and I have other affairs to attend to.
Excuse me.” Aubree left the reception.
Nichole Philbert glanced at Nicholas, and quickly followed after, “Wait…
wait for me.”
Aubree was standing outside the hotel and turned around upon hearing Nichole, smiling, “Miss Philbert, is there anything else?”
“What…
what exactly is your relationship with Edward?”
Aubree quirked an eyebrow, “What do you think, Miss Philbert?”
“Well…
Humph, I may not be as beautiful as you, nor as wealthy or influential, but I will definitely win Edward’s heart.
Don’t be so smug.”
Dallyn giggled behind her hand.
Nichole glared at her, “What are you laughing at?”
“I think you’ve misunderstood.
My lady’s relationship with Mr.
Nicholas is not what you think.
If you like him, then pursue him bravely and don’t pay attention to outside rumors.”
Nichole blinked, “Really?”
She stubbornly looked at Aubree, “I want you to tell me personally, that you have no feelings whatsoever for Edward.”
Aubree answered seriously, “Edward and I are only friends.
Nothing more.”
Nichole seemed satisfied, flying over like a cheerful butterfly, “Then, Aubree, we’re friends now too.
I was just being catty before because I was jealous.
I hope you won’t be mad at me.
I promise I won’t behave like that again.”
“Nichole.” Arwin Philbert, who had followed her out, seemed unable to look at the beautiful woman bathed in the moonlight.
“Very well, Mr.
Philbert please take Miss Nichole home.
I have other matters to attend to.
Goodbye.” Turning on her heel, she departed.
Arwin was frozen as he watched her figure gradually fade into the night, her cold and clear voice still lingering in his ears, carrying a faint, cold fragrance.
Nichole waved her hand in front of his face, “Hey, snap out of it.
She’s long gone.
Wipe your drool, all men are the same.”
Arwin was mortified, “What are you talking about?”
“I’m saying you were practically drooling over her.
Sure, Aubree is very beautiful, and any man who isn’t affected is not a man at all.
But don’t get your hopes up.
A toad dreaming of eating swan meat, keep dreaming.”
Arwin’s face turned livid with rage, “Nichole Philbert…!”
—
“Cosmo Callum?” Jobelle Callum could scarcely believe the man standing before her.
A sudden realization hit her, and she shrieked, “You betrayed my father!
You betrayed the Callums!”
In the midst of the darkness, the scar on the man’s face appeared exceptionally fierce and terrifying.
His icy tone was like a ruthless dagger, piercing Jobelle’s heart without mercy.
“I never had any emotional ties with Taran Callum.
He committed countless crimes; this is his retribution.”
“You…
you despicable coward.” Jobelle tried to attack him, but he easily stifled her throat.
In her fading gaze, she saw the murderous intent in his eyes.
At that moment, she was genuinely terrified.
Footsteps sounded from behind.
In the darkness, a clear voice shouted, “Are you planning to kill someone in front of the Mistress?”
Cosmo snorted coldly, released her throat, and flung Jobelle away.
She tumbled and landed gracelessly on the ground.
Jobelle hurriedly looked up, coming eye to eye with a pair of black leather shoes.
As someone with a deep knowledge of luxury brands, she immediately recognized them.
They were from an ancient Italian brand, handcrafted by the designer.
The only pair in the world, they symbolized understated luxury and unique identity.
