Chapter 214: Chapter 214: Could it not be a high-quality imitation?

Chapter 214

Anyway, she had been using computers since she was a child, influenced by her brother. She learned to write program designs and little games when she was in the 6th grade, so she was already familiar with it.

It wasn’t difficult at all.

She thought for a moment and asked Raine Nolan, "Raine, do Anders Spence and Cherry Foster often come to your house to do homework?"

Raine’s expression changed slightly, and then she said, "They come occasionally, why?"

Mia Nolan pursed her lips slightly, suppressing a bit of excitement in her heart, and said, "Nothing, I just noticed you all get along well, so I casually asked. I thought that if I suddenly went to your house and encountered them, it might be a bit awkward."

"Oh, you’re worried about that. Don’t worry, they’re both nice people. Besides, they’ve both been busy with their own things recently and won’t be coming to my house for now."

The light in Mia’s eyes suddenly dimmed.

"I see..."

She had thought she would be able to meet them.

In Affiliated High School, everyone looked up to the Fosters, Spences, and Collinses, especially the Foster siblings, who were always the targets of people wanting to get close to them.

These three big families and the two families from Orlando controlled the economic lifelines of Grearon. Led by Robert Foster, these siblings would definitely inherit the family business.

Becoming friends with them could save one from ten years of hard work.

This was probably a common understanding in many people’s minds.

Robert Foster had never been close to any girl, and there had never been any romantic rumors about him. She didn’t have the courage to approach him actively.

Among these people, the easiest one to approach seemed to be Raine Nolan.

That’s why she had tried to invite Raine to her birthday party and also invited Anders Spence and Cherry Foster in passing.

At that time, Raine didn’t even give her a glance and refused her instantly with the excuse of being busy.

At that time, they were in the same class, and many people were watching, which made her feel embarrassed.

No matter how much she wanted to climb up the social ladder, she also had her self-esteem. After that incident, she never tried to approach Raine with a warm face again.

She never expected that things would turn out like this today.

While her thoughts were running wild, Raine suddenly said, "There’s a question I’ve always wanted to ask you."

Mia looked serious, "What’s the question?"

Raine seemed casual, "Actually, it’s not a big issue. I just heard from other classmates that your family is ordinary. Are you just intentionally keeping a low profile?"

Mia was confused, "Intentionally low-key? No, our family is actually quite ordinary."

Her voice was timid for the last few words, and she turned her eyes away unnaturally.

"Then it’s weird. An ordinary family can’t afford such expensive earrings."

Mia became even more puzzled, "What are you talking about?"

Raine said, "Oh, I mean, when Ms. Pearce came to our class, I happened to notice the earrings she was wearing. They were a pair of Auspicious East Pearls. If I’m not mistaken, they were the ones that were auctioned at the big auction held at the Grand Resplendence Hotel a while ago. I went with my parents and wanted to bid for them, but someone else bought them. The price, I think, was 30 million? I don’t remember clearly."

She laughed.

Mia showed a trace of embarrassment, looked away, and said, "No, it’s just... Someone gave them to my mother as a gift. They’re just high-quality replicas."

"High-quality replicas?" Raine chuckled, "Who told you they’re replicas? They’re genuine. Besides, that item isn’t a top-of-the-line brand item, so it’s not usually replicated. It’s a high-end accessory that only the old emperor and empress could wear in the old days, unique in the world. If someone wanted to make a replica, they would need to have some historical and cultural background. Normally, people wouldn’t know about such a thing."
