my god, the first wristwatch! This is absolutely priceless!”

“I think I’ve heard about this. This watch was worth 20 million dollars 50 years ago. Its value now is unimaginable.”

“Wouldn’t its current value be even higher?”

The guests buzzed with excitement and amazement.

Yvonne’s icy expression melted away. Putting on a broad smile, she stepped forward and took the watch from Matthew.

Then, she opened the gift box Quinn had given her. She took out the bracelet and placed it on the table, then gently put the wristwatch into the gift box.

“This is too precious. It must be kept safe.”

Martin was equally excited. This watch was worth more than his entire fortune.

After carefully storing the watch, Yvonne offered a glass of wine to Matthew. “Matthew, have some wine. Make sure you eat plenty today. There’s no need to be shy. Consider this your home.”

Her enthusiasm was a stark contrast to her earlier demeanor.

Rachel sighed in relief. Fortunately, they hadn’t been embarrassed. Her curiosity about Matthew deepened as she gazed at him.

She got lost in her thoughts. Just how many secrets did he have?

Quinn’s expression changed. He had wanted to humiliate Matthew but had ended up giving him the limelight. Looking at the bracelet on the table, he felt his face burn with embarrassment and rage.

He almost went crazy.

He cleared his throat and said loudly, “Rachel, I don’t know where your boyfriend got that watch, but I’ve heard some unpleasant things about his background.

“Don’t blame me for meddling in your affairs. I care for you, so I did some investigating.”

Rachel was angry. She glared at Quinn. “What are you trying to do? This is my mom’s birthday party. Don’t you dare try anything!”

The guests sensed some hidden scandal and became even more curious about Matthew’s identity.

How could someone who possessed such a valuable antique watch have a tarnished background?

Yvonne had been basking in the glory brought by Matthew’s extravagant gift. Upon hearing Quinn’s insinuations, she became angry.

“Quinn, it’s my birthday today. Stop talking nonsense. Your mother died early, so no one is here to control you. I’ll do it on behalf of her today!” NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.

Quinn’s face contorted in rage. “Aunt Yvonne, I’m doing this for Rachel’s sake. She lacks experience and has poor judgment. I’m afraid she’s being deceived. You probably don’t know Matthew’s true identity. I’ve done my research. He’s an ex–convict and a recent divorcee.”

His words made the entire room fall silent. Everyone looked at Matthew in disbelief.

An ex–convict? A divorcee?

Rachel was the renowned Ice Beauty in Khoitwood. Many wealthy heirs were interested in her, so why had she chosen this man?

The wine glass in Yvonne’s hand fell to the ground and shattered, spilling wine everywhere.

Her smile froze, and disappointment filled her eyes.

Martin slammed the table angrily and stood up. “Quinn, have you had too much to drink? What nonsense are you spouting?

He couldn’t believe that it was true. How could Rachel choose a divorced ex–convict?

Martin wasn’t the only one, all the guests found it hard to believe.

Quinn raised his phone. “I have detailed information on Matthew, from his birth to his imprisonment. All the information is verified. Rachel clearly lacks experience and judgment!”
