Loving You In Secret novel Chapter 1047

Moreover, they had been deceiving Old Madam Harrison all along, which made Vicky feel guilty. It felt like she was taking advantage of this opportunity to redefine her relationship with Elijah.

With these thoughts in mind, Vicky did not argue and lowered her gaze, before taking the bracelet she was wearing off. "Grandma, please, I should return this bracelet to you..."

Old Madam Harrison pushed the bracelet back. "A gift given away should not be taken back. From the moment I offered you this bracelet, it became your possession."

"Grandma, this bracelet is a precious heirloom of the Harrisons. I can't accept it."

Old Madam Harrison smiled. "When I said it was a family heirloom, it was just to let Elijah know that you are the granddaughter-in-law I have chosen, and that he shouldn't treat you casually. This is a gift from me to you, regardless of the situation... you should accept it."

Vicky became even more hesitant about accepting it upon hearing her words. "Even if this bracelet isn't a family heirloom, it's still invaluable," Vicky said, looking at Old Madam Harrison. "Perhaps we can sell it to get through this difficult time."

"Silly child." Old Madam Harrison sighed softly. "Since the Harrisons have reached the point of mortgaging the old mansion, even if this bracelet could be sold for a billion, it wouldn't be enough to save us from this crisis."

Vicky fell silent.

To ordinary people, a billion was an astronomical number, but for a noble family that was going through bankruptcy, a billion dollars might not even cover the debt they now owed.

Old Madam Harrison looked around and said with sorrow, "Vicky, there is no need to refuse. Perhaps this is the only good thing I can leave behind in this world."

Vicky felt a lump in her throat, and it became even harder to refuse the bracelet.

Old Madam Harrison was right. If the Harrison family really reached the point of bankruptcy, everything in the old mansion would be sold and mortgaged, leaving nothing behind.

...

Vicky only had a few belongings with her as she was just temporarily staying at the Harrisons' house, so she managed to pack everything swiftly.
