INFINITE MONEY - I Will Buy Everything

Chapter 340: Chapter 340 - Caught ?



Diana carefully looked at the necklace in her hand and admired its beauty. Looking at it made her smile quite a lot but after some time she became awfully quiet.

Her eyes seemed to fill with water as she quietly wept by herself while looking at the necklace. The necklace reminded her of her little brother who she did not know how well he was.

Even if they talked with letters, talking in real life and in letters was a different matter. Most of all it pained her to know that he would sent so much of jewelry to her but she couldn't give out anything because it might get caught by her maids.

She slowly wept until a knock resounded from the door as she heard a mature voice, "Diana? Are you there? I want to talk to you about something?"

Diana immediately froze up as she realized the voice belonged to her mother. She immediately replied out of fear, "Coming mother!" Then ran to the closet and quickly threw the necklace at one corner before shutting it close.

Diana then looked around for anything that was out of order and saw the letter and immediately burned it away with a spell and threw it in one corner of the room as it turned to ash.

Then she ran towards the door before she had a glimpse of herself and stopped. She looked at her disheveled face and her mascara which was out of order because of her crying and tried to fix it.

"Diana!" Her mother called out.

"Just one moment mother." She said and did her best to hid away the sadness that was on her face and went towards the door. She held the door handle and took a deep breath before having a smile on her face and opening the door.

A woman with identical features as Diana but a bit mature stood before the door and looked at her daughter with a coy smile as she asked, "What's the matter? What seems to have got you in such a good mood?"

"Hmm? What do you mean?"

"I was talking about the smile on your face."

"Huh?" Diana blurted before understanding that she may have spread her smile a little too much than usual.

"Oh!... I was just a bit too happy to see you, I guess." She said with an even larger smile.

"Is that so?" Her mother said and kept looking at her as Diana also kept smiling awkwardly.

A few moments passed before she said, "Are you going to let me in or still want to keep smiling like that?"

"Oh!" Diana said and jumped back a step as Charlotte walked in. Charlotte looked around the room as her eyes scrutinized every little detail as her daughter followed her every move.

She looked at the bed and then at the veranda and many other places as Diana asked, "Sooo… What brings you by?"

"Well I just finished doing a charity event and felt like I wanted to spend some time with you."

"Right after you just finished a charity event?" Diana asked as she felt something vain.

"Yes, I am…," Charlotte looked back at her daughter with a bright face, "Why is that a problem?"

"No no no, I was just curious that's all." Diana quickly said and Charlotte's smile brightened even more, "Wonderful"

"But looking at your room," She did another take, "Were you doing something here?... Did I come at a bad time?"

"No no…," Diana shook her head vibrantly, "You didn't come at a bad time and I definitely wasn't doing anything."

"Is that so?" Charlotte said as her looked at Diana's trying to find some sort of false in them. But Diana held on as she said, "Oh Yeah."

The stare on went for a moment before Charlotte turned around and Diana finally felt relieved as she gave a large sigh while lowering her posture.

"Are you free right now?"

"huh?… yes."

"Then get ready."

"Hmm?" Diana felt troubled, "Get ready for what?"

"For a big family dinner." Charlotte said with a large smile, "Your grandfather is here."

Diana's eyes widened a lot as she asked in a happy tone, "Grandpa's here?"

"Hmm and he wants to meet with all of us and talk about his adventures." Charlotte said and went towards the closet as Diana quickly stepped in front of her and said, "Wha- what is it?"

"What are you doing? Move… I need to pick up a good dress for you to wear for the family dinner." Charlotte said and moved her daughter aside while looking at all the clothes.

Diana was sweating quite a lot as she looked at her mother looking around the closet and prayed that the necklace wouldn't be found by her. She finally gave a sigh of relief as her mother took off a dress and threw it toward her.

"Wear this."

Diana took the dress and looked at her mother who stood there.

"Well go on."

Diana brows wrinkled as she gave a huff before moving towards the bathroom and quickly changing her dress there. Diana got out of the bathroom, wearing the blue dress with some pearls embedded as her mother gave a satisfying nod.

"You look good in that dress."

"Thanks."

"Wear this too." She said and threw a necklace at Diana who caught it and froze as she realized it was the same necklace that William had gifted her.

She didn't know what to do but she couldn't think about it as her mother came in front of her, "Well quickly wear it."

Diana looked at her mother's face but didn't find any anger nor faults so she thought nothing of it and turned around to wear the necklace. It must have been her fear of being caught or the sweat she had on her palms that made it difficult to wear the necklace as she failed each time.

"Give it to me." Charlotte took the necklace and helped her daughter wear it as she smiled, "That necklace looks absolutely perfect on you."

Diana felt quite good hearing that as the necklace indeed looked great on her and it made her miss William even more.

"Hmm… did I get you that necklace or… was it someone else?"

Diana hearing her mother's question stammered, "A-Ahh… you didn't but it."

"I bought it with a friend when I went out with her… for shopping."

"Oh, What for?"

"Well… I liked it quite a lot so I thought of buying it." Diana said, "How is it?"

"Hmm…" Charlotte thought as Diana's palm nervously clicked themselves, "It certainly seems beautiful on you." Then kissed her daughter's head, "And whatever my daughter likes, she can buy. No questions asked."

Diana smiled hearing that as Charlotte asked, "Diana… baby, You're not hiding something from me, are you?"

The sudden question threw Diana out of her mind as she said, "Wh- what are you talking about mother? Why would I hide something from you?"

"Well… I know that you wouldn't but," Charlotte looked at her daughter from the mirror view and said, "You would tell me if something happened right?"

"…Of course."

Charlotte smiled as she moved back with her daughter, "Let's go then."

Diana nodded with a distant thought as they walked out of the room.

Diana didn't noticed it but, the ash from the letter from before was now gone.
