Chapter 152 Another Identity

That night, Eve came barging into the Garden of Rose. She had wanted to go to Crystaldale, but she was stopped at the gate by security because she had no business being there. She even almost broke her foot. Therefore, she had to go back to the Garden of Rose. She was not a good driver and drove a convertible on the main road, but it rained and there was traffic. She was soon soaked to the skin and her contact lenses were gone. She couldn't see the road and almost rear-ended several times. Some drivers tried to drag her out of the car and teach her a lesson, but they let her go because of her pretty face and sweet voice. Finally, she arrived at the Garden of Rose, messy and frustrated. When she entered the living room, Hailey and Ava were eating in the dining room, and Chris was there for Ava. Lily was startled by Eve's appearance. "Ms. Eve, what happened to you? Why are you such a mess?" The other three turned their heads and were also startled by Eve's appearance. Eve might clash with the weather in Poya. Every time it rained, she was unfortunate and got herself into a mess. Hailey glanced at her and asked, "Are you possessed by a poodle?" Chris and Ava looked at each other and nodded. They thought Eve looked like something and Hailey's words reminded them. It was so graphic! Eve's freshly dyed blonde hair was plastered down to her scalp and face, making her look especially like a poodle. "Hailey! How could you do that?" Eve regained her composure and angrily approached Hailey. As she approached, they saw her more clearly. Hailey said gloomily, "You look like the tomato and egg salad on the table." Eve stopped in her tracks and looked down at herself. She realized that her freshly dyed hair was dripping and that the yellow dye was

staining her red dress. Chris and Ava couldn't stop laughing. They also thought Eve looked exactly like the salad! Eve's face darkened. She came to get even with Hailey, but she was laughed at as soon as she came in. "Shut up! If it weren't for you, how would I be like this?" She pointed at Hailey angrily and yelled, "Hailey! How could you let your assistants beat up my dad? He's your uncle! God will punish you!" Hailey snorted with disdain. "God should have killed ungrateful people like you a long time ago, but you're still alive, aren't you? Calm

down. There's more to come." Eve was furious. "How dare you curse us? You're so vicious!" Ava couldn't stand it anymore. "Eve, you cursed Hailey first, okay?" "Shut up! You don't speak here!" Eve yelled at Ava. Chris frowned unhappily. "Mrs. Edwards, Ava is the third daughter of the Newman family. Why can't she speak here? You better be polite. It would be a shame if you were thrown out." Chris had worked for Hailey for so long. He had learned to say the meanest things in a gentle tone.

Eve froze and suddenly realized that she had no status in the family anymore. She couldn't even bully Ava now. She replied, "You said it. I'm Mrs. Edwards. If you bully me or my dad, I'll have my husband kill you and put Crystaldale out of business!" The other three laughed. It was the funniest joke they had ever heard. Eve asked angrily, "What are you laughing at? Aren't you afraid?" Hailey turned to look at Eve. "I think you really have the potential to be a comedian. If you get thrown out by Luca, you can come to me

and I'll put you in a comedy." Eve knew Hailey was up to no good. "Are you insulting me?" Hailey replied, "No, I'm helping you. Do you think it's easy to be a comedian? It's no easier than if you married into a rich family." Eve was sure that Hailey was insulting her. "I'm serious. If you bully me again, I'll let my husband get back at you!" Expressionless, Hailey said, "You can go back and ask Luca if he has the guts to do that. Even if he does, does he have the power? Does he listen to you?" "I..." Eve tried to retort, but Hailey squinted impatiently at her. "If you make a fuss, your wedding could be called off. What do you think Luca will do when he replaces out your dad isn't the chairman anymore? Marry you or call off the wedding?" Eve's face turned pale She could only shut up in frustration.

The day before Hailey's birthday, Owen took the time to go to Nalence, where he wanted to see Master Jade's works at the collector's before going to Poya. Il things went well, he might be able to talk to Hailey at Poya about working with Master Jade. It took Owen a long time to replace the collector, who lived in a very remote area and had moved several times. After exchanging pleasantries with the collector on behalf of Steven, Owen immediately made his intentions clear. The collector said with a smile, "They're not for sale. To tell you the truth, a lot of people have approached me recently and offered to buy Master Jade's works. Some people even offered high prices, but I just want to keep them and pass them to my descendants." Owen understood. Even though he couldn't buy the works, he could see them at least, . + 10 The collector told him to wait a moment and went to his study. After a while, he came out carefully carrying a tray with two items on it. each covered with a piece of cloth. It was clear that he cherished these two works. The atmosphere was so serious that Owen and Jose became excited. The tray was large, but both works were very small. The collector carefully lifted the cloth off the work on the left. It was carved out of white jade and was called Joan of Arc. It was, of course, the famous female general Joan of Arc. Many people had carved Joan of Arc, but this statuette had two sides, one with her as a girl and the other with her in armor. She was lively and innocent as a girl and bright and brave in armor. It looked so real that Owen even felt Joan of Arc come to life in front of him. He stared intently at the exquisite jade sculpture. The collector looked at Owen and asked with a smile, "Are you impressed by the skill of Master Jade?" Owen nodded. "Yes, and I even think she looks like a girl I know." The collector teased, "Really? She's your sweetheart, right?" Owen gave a smile and didn't say anything. He even felt possessed, or he wouldn't have thought the statuette looked like Hailey. He picked it up and found a poem inscribed on the bottom in a special script. He touched the words with his fingertips and they felt familiar. Suddenly, something went across his mind. He reached into his pocket and pulled out the rose seal. The scripts on the statuette and on the seal were exactly the same! They were definitely made by the same person! Owen's eyes widened in surprise. It was really her!
