Chapter 267 This Is a Fake, It Crumbles With Just a Pinch

In Kiera's eyes, whether it was her grandfather or cousin Henry, they had all given Lachlan face several times. They even helped him out a few times! But this guy had been extremely disrespectful towards the Ward family during their last encounter. How could Kiera not have any objections towards Lachlan? Especially since the Ward family had helped this jerk out several times before, leaving her feeling very unfair. This time around, she seemed to have found an opportunity to make up for it by using Lachlan as a shield against the fat man. Jude Smith, also known as Mr. Smith the fat guy, saw Kiera walking with another man and his eyes flashed with jealousy and resentment.

"Kiera, my family sent me here to take care of business in Kreanford so I thought I'd come visit your Grandpa and you in Edoland too. Hehe..."

Jude chuckled.

"I'm doing fine; there's no need for you to go through any trouble on my account."

"Have you eaten yet? My boyfriend and I are taking two kids out for dinner so why don't we eat together?" Kiera asked nonchalantly.

Upon hearing this suggestion from Kiera, Jude's gaze turned even darker with jealousy towards Lachlan.

"What did you say? Is he your boyfriend?" Jude pointed at Lachlan and asked incredulously.

"Yes! And my grandpa introduced us!" Kiera said while smiling sweetly at Lachlan as if she were flirting with him.

Lachlan hesitated for a moment but eventually decided to play along by being her shield once since he felt guilty about what happened last time between him and the Ward family.

"Hello there! I'm Kiera's boyfriend - Lachlan!" He extended his hand towards Jude while introducing himself politely

"Screw off! Who do you think you are?"

"Just because of that attitude of yours, you think that makes you worthy enough of being with Kiera? Kid, who is your father? Speak up!!" Jude directly hit Lachlan's hand away, gritted his teeth while cursing. Hearing these words, Lachlan's expression turned cold immediately, "If I am not worthy enough, then how can a pig like yourself be qualified?"

"What did you say?! You dare insult me by calling me pig?"

Upon hearing these words, Jude got angry, his face shaking uncontrollably due to anger. He shouted furiously, "Listen carefully kid, I am Jude Smith from the Smith family in lylonio. If anyone knows what is good for them, they will leave now. Otherwise even if we are in Kreanford, I can still kill ya. Do ya believe me?"

Upon hearing this, Lachlan laughed out loud. "I don't believe you! Why don't you try and take me down?"

Jude heard this and glared at Lachlan for a moment. But he realized that he didn't bring any bodyguards with him today, and he seemed to have no fear of him. He ultimately decided not to resort to violence. Despite his size, Jude wasn't good at fighting people, nor did he usually need to use his own hands in such situations as a wealthy young man. "Kid, I don't have time for you right now. Let's just see what happens!" After snorting coldly at Lachlan's words, Jude decided not to confront him directly but instead shifted his focus onto Kiera.

The next second, he pulled out an exquisitely crafted box and knelt down on one knee in front of Kiera after opening it up. The jewelry box was made with great attention to detail and even crafted from platinum! Inside the box lay a platinum necklace with a sparkling blue sapphire at its end that shone like a dreamy light! Anyone who looked at it would feel as if they were being drawn into the gemstone itself. Many women in the restaurant couldn't take their eyes off of this beautiful piece of jewelry.

"Kiera," said Jude affectionately while holding up the necklace towards her face, "This gemstone necklace represents my feelings for you! I bought it during an auction in Akuth specifically for you when I came here. Please accept it..."

To be honest, given his appearance alone, playing such tricks like kneeling down on one knee was really cringe-worthy; however, many women present couldn't help but wish they were Kiera instead because of how much attention this wealthy young man had attracted by giving away such an exquisite piece of jewelry.

"Wow! What a beautiful gemstone!"

"If someone proposed marriage using this gemstone necklace on me, then I would definitely say yes!"

"Yes indeed! Even if there is no dowry involved, I would still marry him!"

"Get lost! This gemstone necklace is obviously worth quite some money so naturally there wouldn't be any dowry involved."

The diners inside the restaurant, especially women, spoke back-and-forth about what they saw before them; even Kiera herself was attracted by the beauty of this particular item momentarily. However, she shook her head after considering everything, "Mr. Smith, please put it away. It's too valuable. I can't accept something like that."

Hearing these words caused Jude's eyes flicker with disappointment, "Kiera, only someone as divine as yourself could match up against something like 'the heart-of-the-sea' pendant... If you won't accept, ther all I can do is throw it away!"

A look of speechlessness crossed over Kiera's pretty face, "Then go ahead and throw it away!"

Jude's tone faltered as he looked at Kiera, who remained indifferent. He stood up with a hint of annoyance and said, "Kiera, if we can be together, it would be good for you and your family! Whether or not the Ward family can return to lylonio depends on you!"

Kiera's expression turned completely cold upon hearing this. "Mr. Smith, who I am with is my own business and has nothing to do with my family. You don't need to pressure me like this; it's useless."

"And besides, I already have someone I like. Thank you for your misguided love," she added as she turned towards Lachlan with a smile that seemed to suggest she was deeply in love.

Jude gritted his teeth and pointed at Lachlan. "This guy? What do you see in him?"

He then provocatively looked at Lachlan and said, "Kid, have you seen this necklace? It cost me five million euros from Akuth auction house. What about you? What have you given Kiera? Don't tell me that you're just a gold digger?"

Upon hearing Jude's words, Lachlan broke out into sweat thinking how accurate he was about him being a gold digger initially but eventually becoming more independent.

Lachlan raised an eyebrow as he looked at the necklace in Jude's hand before bursting into laughter.

"Fatty, you're dressed up all stylishly, pretending to be some big shot from lylonio. Just using a fake necklace to deceive people, huh?"

Jude froze for a moment before gritting his teeth again saying, "What did you say? Fake?! Are you trying to insult me because maybe deep down inside yourself you know that even if it's fake its still worth more than what your poor ass could ever afford?"

Everyone else in the restaurant stared suspiciously and mockingly towards Lachlan after hearing Jude's words.

"That's right! This guy can't afford anything so he tries belittling others!"

"What trash!"

"How could such a beautiful woman fall for him?"

"Anyone knows how valuable this gemstone necklace is!"

However, Lachlan remained calm despite everyone else's ridicule, "Of course it's fake! It wouldn't even take much effort on my part since its so low quality compared real ones!"

Hearing this statement, Jude burst into laughter thinking that no one would believe such an absurd claim, "What did you say?! You think that by crushing one blue sapphire stone will prove anything?" "Come on then! If your really capable of doing so, then show us!"

"If you indeed crush it, I'll change my last name!"

The other people in the restaurant also let out a chorus of hisses. Who didn't know that diamonds were the hardest substance in the world? How could they be crushed by hand?
