Chapter 480: Another Piece of Mandarin Duck Stone
Both of them lost in their own thoughts, the atmosphere in the car suddenly became too quiet, and no one spoke.
After half a moment, Angela Reid came back to her senses and glanced at Emily Walker beside her.
“By the way, you mentioned your little brother earlier? Your biological brother?” Even though she had little hope, Angela couldn’t help wanting to know more about Emily.
Emily dried her hair roughly with the small handkerchief, though it couldn’t be completely dried. She wiped it a few times and prepared to return the handkerchief to Angela.
As she reached out her hand, she realized the handkerchief was completely dirty and felt embarrassed to return it, so she withdrew her hand.
“Yes, he’s 18 years old and just started university,” Emily answered casually, not noticing Angela’s deliberate probing, thinking it was just a casual question.
Upon hearing this, Angela nodded and went on to ask, “How about you? How old are you?”
“Twenty, almost twenty-one,” Emily looked at the handkerchief, thinking she should wash it and return it to her later when she had the opportunity.
Although it was just a small handkerchief, in wealthy families like theirs, even small items could be priceless, right?
Hearing Emily’s answer, Angela was taken aback.
Almost twenty-one, same as her Charlotte Walker.
As the conversation went on, Emily suddenly realized that Angela seemed to be interested in her personal questions, remembering that she had also asked her some personal questions previously.
“Madam Walker, you seem to be very interested in these questions about me?” She asked tentatively, although it was a bit blunt, every time Angela asked such questions, Emily couldn’t help but be curious.
When asked, Angela paused for a moment.
After a long silence, she took something out of her bag.
It was a delicate golden box. Angela took it out and handed it to Emily, then opened it, revealing a mandarin duck pendant identical to the one around Baron Stuart’s neck.
When Emily saw it, she was clearly surprised. If not for the different string attached, she would have thought this was the one around Baron Stuart’s neck.
“This is…” She stared at Angela in amazement, wondering why she had a mandarin duck pendant just like hers.
Angela looked at her and smiled slightly, “Doesn’t it look very similar to Baron Stuart’s?”
Emily nodded, “Not just similar, but exactly the same.”
She had thought her pendant was one of a kind, but Angela also had one.
Looking at her, Angela asked, “Is the one Baron Stuart has yours?”
Emily nodded, “Yes, because…because of some reasons, I gave it to him.”
Actually, Baron Stuart had taken it by force!
Hearing this, Angela felt a little thrill in her heart and looked at her with bright eyes, “Where did you get your pendant?”
Emily was taken aback and couldn’t help but wonder.
She wouldn’t be trying to claim that her pendant was once hers and she wanted it back, would she?
With this thought, Emily looked at Angela warily, “It’s from my parents, you could say it’s a family heirloom!”
Fearing that Angela would claim the item belonged to her family, Emily couldn’t help but exaggerate a bit.
Regarding her cautious reaction, Angela paused for a moment before laughing, “I didn’t mean anything else.”
