Chapter 3

Judith opened the gift box and there was only a plain chain inside and the only diamond was pitifully small.

She suddenly remembered that Maddie's circle of friends had posted a message that Steven spent 100 million to buy her a rare diamond necklace from the famous jewelry shop in town.

Judith weighed the necklace in her hand,without revealing any disappointment.

She put on the necklace with a smile and said softly,"Thank you."

Steven was surprised by her reaction,but soon figured out that no matter what he gave,Judith would be grateful.

He walked into the venue first,holding Maddie's waist and chatting with everyone.

Judith,who came alone,naturally became the target of everyone's flattery.

"Steven and Maddie are such a perfect match.They grew up together.It would be great if they could be together!"

"If someone hadn't taken advantage of Maddie's medical treatment abroad,they would have had a child."

"I don't know how she got into William's party.As the rumors say,Mr.Wilson is always flattering wherever he goes."

Judith didn't want to be a stepping stone for everyone to praise Maddie.She walked to the balcony and was about to take a breath when a familiar voice came from behind her.

"Miss Corliss,long time no see.Why are you here alone?"

Judith looked back and saw Maddie wearing a high-end dress and walking towards her with a smile.She was wearing the diamond necklace that she posted on her social media.

Judith hurriedly shifted her gaze and quickly adjusted herself,"I came here to get some fresh air because I'm bored.You look beautiful today and the necklace suits you very well."

Maddie smiled and touched the necklace on her neck,her tone full of pride,"Thank you,this is a gift from Steven.When I was a child,he said that when he grew up,he would buy me the most beautiful necklace in the world.I didn't expect that he would still remember it."

She took a step forward,"I heard that he also bought it for Miss Corliss.Is it the one on your neck?"

She stared at Judith calmly,trying to find any anger and jealousy on her face.

But Judith always had a decent smile on her face and continued to praise,"The necklace suits you very well.It really looks good on young people."

Maddie was stunned for a moment and didn't know how to speak.She originally wanted to see Judith angry and lost,but Judith's words left her speechless.A trace of ruthlessness flashed across Maddie's eyes.

When Judith left sideways,she suddenly grabbed her arm and said,"Miss Corliss,I still have something to say to you.Don't leave in a hurry."

The soft and slender hands touched Judith's skin,as if a sticky poisonous snake was entangled.Judith wanted to break free reflexively,but suddenly Maddie screamed.

With Judith,the two fell to the champagne tower beside them.The broken glass shards pierced her skin,making her gasp.The sound here attracted everyone's attention.

Seeing Maddie fall,Steven hurried over.Because he was too anxious,he didn't notice that he bumped into Judith who was struggling to get up.

She was already in pain all over her body and her body lost weight and fell backwards while staggering.The broken glass shards pierced deeply into her palm and blood instantly flowed down.

Maddie's eyes were blurred with tears.She leaned pitifully in Steven's arms and choked up,"Steven,I don't know which words offended Miss Corliss..."

After that,she carefully glanced at Judith,"But I don't think she did it on purpose.I guess she was just angry for a moment."

Steven looked at Judith with eyes that seemed to be icy.

"I didn't..."Judith explained palely.

If eyes could kill,she would have been cut into pieces by now.Steven didn't believe her and Judith should have known it long ago.

After a long silence,Maddie spoke again,with grievance in her voice,"Steven,is it because the necklace you gave me is more expensive than Miss Corliss's that she pushed mine?In that case,I'll give it to her."

After that,she pretended to take it off.

Steven picked up Maddie distressedly,looked at her bleeding arm and stopped her,saying,"No!You must go to the hospital right now."

He didn't even look at the embarrassed Judith,but just said coldly when passing by her,"I'll come to settle with you later."

After the farce,Judith didn't want to stay any longer.There was no taxi nearby,so she could only walk back with her sticky dress.

Suddenly,a familiar car stopped in front of her.
