Chapter 780 Paper Can&##x27;t Wrap Fire

The plum blossoms were in full bloom in December. In the plum garden in the north suburb of Dragon
City, the plum blossoms were blooming brightly.

Mrs. Rose liked flowers, so Essie invited her and Irene to the plum garden to enjoy the flowers. It was
not weekend, so it was very quiet here and there were not many tourists.

The air was filled with the fragrance of roses, which was refreshing.

Mrs. Rose took a deep breath and smiled, "It's so beautiful here."

Irene kept taking photos with the camera. In fact, she didn't mean to appreciate the flowers. She just
hoped that Zac could come quickly and play with them.

"Sister in law, when will cousin come?"

"He'll be here as soon as the meeting is over," Essie said with a smile.

On the gravel path in front of the plum garden, two familiar figures walked over leisurely.

"Oh, it's my aunt and sister-in-law Laura. They are also here." Irene waved at them and said, "Aunt,
sister-in-law Laura..."

When Mrs. Rose saw Mary, an unnatural look flashed across her face. She reached out to flick the
short hair near her ear to relieve her uneasiness.

"What a coincidence! You are here too!" Looking at Essie, Leila said with a fake smile.

"Since we are all here to enjoy the plum blossoms, why don't you join us? Cousin will come here later,"
Irene said with a smile.

"Okay, let's have afternoon tea together later." Mary nodded.



The five people strolled around the plum garden together. After Zac came, they went to the British style
afternoon tea house.

"I like the almond muffin cakes here very much. They taste better than what I ate in London," Irene said
with a smile.

"The pastry master here is Michelin five star. The cakes here are delicious," Leila said.

Mrs. Rose picked up the teacup and took a sip of the black tea. The watch on her wrist was exposed
from her sleeve.

Mary saw it at a glance, her body trembling with fear.

Wasn't this the watch sent by Albert? How could Mrs. Rose's wear it on her wrist? Did he give it to her?

It turned out that the mistress she had investigated was with her!

She had thought that Mrs. Rose would be safe after she completely lost her memory. It seemed that
she had underestimated her enemy!

Zac also saw it, but he didn't show it on his face.

Mary took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down. Then she forced a smile and said,
"Charlotte, your watch is so beautiful. When did you buy it?"

"Irene gave it to me." Mrs. Rose smiled.

"Yes, I gave it to my mother." Irene nodded.

"Really?" The smile at the corners of Mary's mouth gradually became insidious. "Where did you buy it?"

"I asked a friend to buy it for me," Irene said while eating, in case her lie was exposed.



"This is a custom-made Patek Philippe watch. It is usually only sold at an auction and is invaluable.
Where does your friend come from? It's so amazing that you can buy a watch worth tens of millions of
dollars at any time." Mary stared at her coldly, with a sense of trial in her eyes.

Irene trembled slightly, frightened by her expression. It seemed that her uncle didn't tell her when he
gave the watch to her. Now that she knew it, she was very angry. Did she want to take the watch back?

This watch was so beautiful that she liked it very much. She could wear it when her mother didn't wear
it. She didn't want to return it at all.

Mrs. Rose was shocked when she heard Mary's words. She turned to Irene and asked, "Is this watch
so expensive?"

"No, I didn't. My Aunt must have made a mistake. It's only worth a little more than twenty of thousand
dollars." Irene pursed her lips. She had made up her mind not to admit it.

'Auntie is so mean. It is only a watch, yet, she becomes so fierce. The Rong family is the richest family.
It's possible for her to purchase Patek Philippe, let alone a watch.' Her mother was her sister. Wasn't it
normal to give her a watch? No wonder her uncle asked her to keep it a secret. He probably knew that
her aunt was narrow-minded and afraid that she would not be willing to give, so he did not tell her!

Leila had sensed something. She learned from the gossip in the Rong Mansion that her mother-in-law
was suspecting that her father-in-law had an affair recently because of a watch. Was this the watch
worn by Mrs. Rose?

Zac was still drinking tea expressionlessly, as if he didn't care about their conversation at all.

With a calm look on her face, Essie picked up a piece of muffin, smeared it with blueberry sauce and
took a bite. She knew that paper could not wrap fire, and this watch would be seen by Mary sooner or
later.



Mary sneered. She didn't expect that Irene would help her mother lie to her. If she didn't expose it
today, she wouldn't be Mary!

"Irene, I like this watch very much. How about you contact your friend and order one for me?"

"Auntie, you have so many watches. You don't need them, do you?" Irene smiled awkwardly.

"I just like it and want to buy one. Contact him now." Then she took out her phone and put it in front of
her.

"I didn't bring his business card," Irene said in a hurry. Mary's aggressiveness made her a little
breathless.

"You didn't bring it with you, or you didn't have it at all?" Mary snorted and looked very serious.

Seeing the displeasure on her face, Mrs. Rose quickly said, "Sister, if you really like it, I'll ask Irene to
contact her friend for you after we go back."

Mary rolled her eyes at her and thought, 'Mother and daughter are really acting like there is such a
thing.' When she was about to break up with them, Essie's voice came from the side, "Mommy, I didn't
expect you to like this watch so much. Irene forgot to bring the business card, but I have saved the
phone number. How about I call her for you?"

Mary turned to look at her, and a surprised look flashed through her eyes. "You have?"

"Yes. Last time when my aunt came to see Dawny, I saw her watch and liked it very much. So I asked
Irene for a phone call and bought a watch to wear." As she spoke, Essie pulled up her sleeve and
showed her watch, which was the same as Mrs. Rose's.

Zac looked at the watch, and a sharp cold light flashed through his eyes.



With a weird smile on her face, Leila said, "Essie, really? Irene bought a fake Patek Philippe watch,
and you also bought one? You are the young hostess of the Rong family. If others know that you wear
fake goods, won't you disgrace our Rong family? "

"Sister in law, this is not an ordinary copycat. It's a delicate imitation. Except for the different parts
inside, we can't tell whether it's true or not from its appearance," Essie said seriously.

At this moment, Irene breathed a sigh of relief in her heart. No matter how stupid she was, she could
see that Essie was helping her out.

Although it was a shame to buy a fake, especially in front of Zac, Essie admitted that she had bought it.
It didn't matter since she was more embarrassed than her.

But why did Essie have the same watch? Was there two pieces of watch and her uncle secretly gave
her one without telling her?

Mary was confused. Did she make a mistake? Irene just happened to buy a fake watch for Mrs. Rose?

While she was thinking, the voice of Essie came again, "After all, it's illegal to make fake products. That
person doesn't accept the order casually, and he needs to be introduced by an acquaintance. Mommy,
if you really like it, I'll call him now."

Mary curled her lips and said, "Forget about the fake. It will disgrace our Rong family. You should wear
less in the future. Don't disgrace Zac."

"Okay." Essie nodded.

Mrs. Rose didn't think it was a big deal. As long as it was a gift from her daughter, even if it was a fake
one, it was still very precious to her.



Back to the Rong Mansion, Zac leaned against the sofa in his room and looked at Essie with deep and
sharp eyes.

"Idiot, didn't you say that you would stay neutral and not get involved in daddy's matter?"

"I'm not involved." Essie opened her eyes and looked back at him with innocent and confused eyes.
She entered the standard posture of pretending to be innocent.

"Oh?" Zac raised his thick eyebrows slightly, and his deep cold eyes flashed with sharp coldness, as if
he could see through all the secrets in her heart at a glance.

Essie quickly lowered her eyes and covered her possibly leaking pupils with her thick eyelashes to
prevent him from peeping.

However, this small action quietly betrayed her. Zac had already known the subtle expression on her
face when she lied to him. As long as she revealed an unnatural expression, he would know it.

He crossed his hands on the back of his head and said slowly, "Honey, I really admire your ability to
deceive others. This time you are looking for the same shop as the one who made the Purple Love for
you last time, aren't you?"

No way. He had already guessed it? Was it really good to be so shrewd and wise?

"You didn't drink today. How could you say something that I don't understand?" She continued to play
dumb. As long as there was still room for her to hide, she had to grit her teeth and pretend. She
couldn't easily confess.

"It's the first time that the Patek Philippe platinum sapphire watch with the star moon rotating wheel has
appeared at the Zurich auction. It hasn't been exposed to the media since it was bid by my father. How
did you fake it?" Zac's voice was light, but his tone was more powerful than lead.



Essie walked to the bar counter, poured a small glass of rose red wine, gently shook it for two times,
and took a sip. "He has his own way. Maybe his girlfriend is a translator. She is at the Zurich auction. If
she take a photo and send it to him, he can make it."

"A translator?" With a mocking smile at the corners of his mouth, Zac said, "You've been watching TV
series recently. Do you use the information from it to the current situation now?"

"It doesn't matter whether you believe it or not." Essie walked to the lounge chair and sat down, tasting
the red wine in her hand intently, pretending that she didn't want to talk to him anymore.

But Zac wouldn't let her go easily. He walked over, grabbed the glass in her hand, and drank up the
rest of the wine. "The one you wear is indeed fake, but the one aunt wore is real. It's from my father."

"You're so thinking too much. It's Irene who gave me that piece. Since you have a pair of sharp eyes,
you should know that I'm not lying," Essie tried her best to keep calm and said slowly.
