Chapter 148 You Deserve All the Good Things in This World
Even though Frederick said the price wasn't high and told her to just wear them casually, Rebecca knew better. That ring alone was worth a fortune, let alone the entire set.
She carefully removed the necklace and ring and put them back in the jewelry box. Rebecca only kept the bracelet and earrings that she particularly loved.
While happily thanking Frederick, "Thank you for the gift!"
Wearing the complete jewelry set, Rebecca looked dazzlingly beautiful, breathtakingly gorgeous.
Wearing only the bracelet and earrings, she looked less formal but gained an air of pure, elegant beauty.
She was still so beautiful that people couldn't take their eyes off her.
Frederick called the manager over to pack up the necklace and ring to send to Pinewood Mansion, then said in a low voice, "Send the other set that Becca likes as well."
"Alright."
The manager nodded and turned back to ask Rebecca, "Would Mrs. Windsor like to try on that set you just looked at?"
She was about to say no, but then thought of something. Rebecca turned to look at Frederick, "Then wait for me a bit."
Seeing Frederick about to get up and follow, Rebecca turned back to push him away, stood on her tiptoes, and whispered in his ear, "You can't look! Some other day, I'll wear it specially for you, okay?"
Although he didn't know why it had to be another day, it was rare to see Rebecca so enthusiastic.
Frederick nodded, but his hand stayed around Rebecca's waist, "Another day—which day exactly? Give me a specific date, and I'll agree!"
"...Would I really lie to you?"
Rebecca looked helpless and said coquettishly, "The day after tomorrow, is that okay?"
Frederick was satisfied and let go.
Rebecca was gone for over half an hour before coming back.
She looked pleased, as if she really liked it.
Without even looking at the price, Frederick went straight ahead and signed the check.
Beside him, Rebecca gasped, "That jewelry set is called 'Eternity'? It's that expensive?"
A nine-figure price—forget about owning it, even after attending so many international jewelry exhibitions over the years, Rebecca had never seen anything like it.
But looking at Frederick's expression, it was as if it wasn't 1.9 billion, but 190,000.
"Yes, Mrs. Windsor."
The manager explained, "The 'Eternity' came from the ocean floor and has a history of over a hundred million years. Not counting the small diamonds set in the necklace, bracelet, and earrings, just the two large diamonds on the necklace and ring alone are 99 carats. Moreover, 'Eternity' is the work of a world-famous jewelry master. Insiders have revealed that this is probably his final masterpiece."
No wonder!
Rebecca looked anxious, turned back to look at Frederick, who had been watching her, and thanked him again, "Frederick, thank you!"
Ever since she saw that "Eternity" set today, she had been thanking him constantly.
As if it were something so far beyond her reach that owning it made her feel uneasy.
Frederick smiled, "Becca, you deserve all the beauty this world has to offer!"
Rebecca froze, her heart starting to race uncontrollably again.
In the past, only her parents called her Becca.
Dad was gone, and Mom was sick and didn't remember her anymore, so when Frederick first called her Becca, she didn't even react.
And every time he called her Becca after that, Rebecca felt that Frederick was especially gentle in that moment, as if he and she had known each other for many years, which was why he could call her that so intimately and naturally.
When that thought crossed her mind, Rebecca quickly calmed down, thinking she was reading too much into it.
The feeling of being pampered and cherished hit her full force, making her heart pound.
He was way too good at this—who could resist a Frederick like this?
