The CEO's Empathy Pregnancy Pains
Chapter 146 The Power of the Bracelet

Emily chimed in, "This ring's design is something else. The detailed patterns around the diamond make it look like a blooming flower, giving off a stunning glow."

"Ms. Blair, I bet when you first designed this ring, you wanted to highlight its delicate craftsmanship and luxurious details from every angle. And later on, you probably thought about how the luster would change, which is super thoughtful." Sophia was totally caught off guard by Emily's detailed analysis. She spoke so smoothly, like she had really studied these jewels closely.

"What do you mean?" Penelope's design philosophy matched perfectly with Emily's comments, and she immediately smiled appreciatively at her.

Emily continued, "This ring shines brilliantly whether it's in sunlight or under these lights. Women love shiny things like this. The original pattern design looks like flowing starlight, and when mixed with colors, it becomes even more mesmerizing and irresistible."

Emily's smooth talk left Sophia in awe. She suddenly felt like she was in a tough spot, especially after having boasted in front of Penelope. And now, Michael was also glancing over from time to time! Giving up didn't seem right, but neither did sticking around.

Just as Sophia was feeling lost, Penelope turned to her and said, "Mrs. Smith is done speaking, now it's your turn, Miss Brown."

The difference in Penelope's tone when addressing Emily and Sophia was clear. But this only fired up Sophia's competitive spirit.

Alright then! Wasn't this just about evaluating jewelry? Anyone could say nice things! Since Emily praised the ring so much, she'd praise something else! After all, people loved hearing compliments!

"Mrs. Watson, Emily has already praised this ring, so I don't have much to add. Your design skills are top-notch, which we all can see... Why don't we look at something else? I really like every piece of your design here!" Sophia was great at saying empty words that sounded nice but meant nothing.

Emily, listening on the side, couldn't help but roll her eyes. Sophia's act might fool inexperienced young people, and maybe even Michael, who had feelings for her. But for someone as experienced as Penelope, Sophia's tricks were just not good enough.

Penelope saw through it instantly. And so, another dramatic scene unfolded.

Penelope quickly led the two half-sisters to another table, where a bracelet was displayed. The bracelet's design was unique and full of mystery and fantasy.

This time, Sophia wasn't going to let Emily say all the good things first. But in her eagerness to impress, Sophia completely missed the fact that Emily's so-called compliments were actually very professional. And she was just copying. Sophia gushed, "Mrs. Watson, this bracelet is stunning! The color, the design-it's so rare to see something like this on the market. These patterns are just gorgeous. Making such a delicate bracelet must have taken a lot of time. Mrs. Watson, you are truly amazing!"

Penelope had heard such flattery countless times. She smiled wryly, instantly realizing that Sophia was just a pretty face with no substance.

"Emily, what do you think?" Penelope turned to Emily, who was carefully examining the bracelet, unable to take her eyes off it.

"Ms. Blair, this bracelet is made of top-quality platinum, presenting a brilliant silver-white color. You also engraved intricate patterns on the surface of the bracelet, but I see..." Emily hesitated. She hadn't finished speaking, giving Sophia an opening.

Sophia quickly stepped in front of Emily, saying excitedly, "What did you see, Emily? If I remember correctly, aren't you a bit nearsighted? It's normal for your eyes to not see these clearly! It's okay! Why don't you go take a rest? I'll stay with Mrs. Watson. I..."

Sophia hadn't finished speaking, and Emily didn't retort, but Penelope stepped in, pulling Emily to her side and saying coldly, "Miss Brown, Emily is absolutely right, and she explained every detail very thoroughly. But you, saying this bracelet is novel and beautiful-those are the most common characteristics. Anyone with eyes can see that. What you said is equivalent to saying nothing. So, why don't you step down first? I think you don't need to waste time here." Penelope's words were decisive and clear, but she didn't say them too loudly, giving Sophia some dignity.

Sophia was left speechless and had to retreat in embarrassment.

Despite this, Emily didn't feel any sense of relief. As long as Sophia was at this banquet, it meant her identity was recognized by everyone, especially Michael.

Michael still cared about their relationship. Because of this, everyone would secretly laugh at her, Emily, the so-called "Mrs. Smith".

"Emily, what are you thinking?" Penelope's words interrupted Emily's thoughts.

She came back to her senses, seeing Penelope raising an eyebrow at her and then pointing to the beautiful bracelet. "Always remember, don't waste your energy on people and things that are not worth it. Focus your attention on appreciating beautiful things. Didn't you just ask me what patterns are engraved on this bracelet?"

Emily nodded, now completely captivated by Penelope's charm.

Penelope continued, "They are mysterious runes. I specifically had someone investigate and study them in advance. But no one has asked me this question before; you are the first, which shows you observe very carefully. The initial idea of designing it was that it contains endless power, perfectly matching the wearer. Isn't that great?"

Hearing this, Emily was greatly shocked. She never thought that an ordinary bracelet could contain such profound meaning, showing how much effort and dedication the designer had put into it.
