Chapter 827 Bringing Disaster Upon Yourself
Georgia picked up the gift box and turned it over in her hands.
When Efren saw that, he stepped forward and asked, “What’s wrong? Do you like this box?”
“No, I remember seeing this box before.”
Georgia actually remembered that when she and Isidra were
choosing cufflinks in the jewelry store last time, the pair of diamond cufflinks that Isidra chose was wrapped in the same box as this.
“All gift boxes look roughly the same,” Efren said.
“No, this one is different.” What Georgia meant was the ribbon
tied on the top of the gift box.
This gift box was initially adorned with a sapphire blue ribbon,
but Isidra said the ribbon did not look luxurious enough for this box, so she especially bought a smog blue ribbon for hundreds of
dollars to redecorate it.
And the decorative ribbon on the gift box in Georgia’s hands now
was exactly the same smog blue ribbon.
Furthermore, her sixth sense also told her that Isidra was the one
who brought this gift.
But when Isidra was choosing the pair of diamond cufflinks at that time, she looked so serious, as if she wanted to choose a gift for
her fiancé.
Yet this gift now appeared in Georgia’s uncle’s birthday gifts drop
zone.
Georgia abruptly thought of something, then she immediately tore off the ribbon and opened the gift box.
Just as she expected, what lay inside was the pair of diamond
cufflinks that Isidra had chosen before!
“Why are you unwrapping your uncle’s present?” Efren asked casually when he saw Georgia unwrapping the gift box.
After all, in a family like the Hansen family, anyone could receive tons of valuable gifts on their birthdays.
They wouldn’t take these gifts seriously at all, and would even occasionally donate them as gifts for charity activities.
So if Georgia really liked it and opened all of Byron’s presents, Byron would surely say nothing.
But soon, Efren noticed that Georgia’s face was as white as a
sheet.
He instantly didn’t care whether there were any familiar people around and hurriedly grabbed Georgia’s shoulders, asking,
“What’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?”
Georgia was still staring at the pair of cufflinks in her hands
absentmindedly. “I’m not feeling unwell. It’s just that… I seem to have brought disaster upon myself.”
Before this, she still wondered why Isidra stayed so shamelessly in the Hansen Mansion for so long when Isidra obviously didn’t like
her.
It was certainly not to save on hotel fees while staying in New
York!
Was it because of the tranquil and comfortable environment
around the Hansen Mansion? Or to have more chances to see
Cora, the person who saved her life?
But now, Georgia realized that she was totally mistaken!
It turned out that Isidra was only targeting Byron from the very
beginning!
It was no wonder Isidra also whined to eat supper when she
saw Byron eating supper, as she had always frowned upon the
mention of supper before.
It was also no wonder Isidra suddenly became interested in visiting the jewelry store after Georgia mentioned Byron’s birthday, as she was so unwilling to go with Georgia before.
The more Georgia thought about it, the more disgusted she felt, and the more she felt so sorry for Cora.
On the other hand, Efren was totally clueless. “Bringing disaster upon yourself? What do you mean?”
At this time, the emcee was announcing the start of the birthday banquet.
Efren could only say, “Honey, let’s go in first, okay? You can tell
me in detail later.”
He vowed not to easily let go of whoever dared to scare his
sweetheart like this.
But Georgia said, “I have to talk to Aunt Cora first. You can go
inside with Martin first. I’ll be there soon.”
“Georgia…”
Efren wanted to persuade her, but Georgia had shaken off his
hand and walked toward the backstage of the banquet.
