Chapter 149
Applause erupted.
The next item to go on auction was still from Taylor Jewelry. After a few items, the highest price for jewelry from Taylor was $263,000,000, far more than any other item.
The screen showed a peacock blue necklace next.
When Kennedy saw it, he nervously looked toward Maisie. Helios, who seemed to have noticed his
gaze, looked toward Maisie through the corner of his eyes too.
Seller: Willow Vanderbilt
The crowd booed and whispered among themselves. The sellers here were either well-known companies or famous jewelry designers. Willow was a name that many did not recognize.

Only a few people had followed the ‘drama’ on Twitter and learned about her fiasco with Ms. Santiago.
However, the item on the screen was pretty unique.
The peacock blue necklace had a brilliant teardrop-shaped sapphire. The melee blue diamonds on the tail of the peacock were a beautiful addition.
This item was ‘Peacock’s Pride’ that Maisie had designed.
Too bad Willow just copied the design from Maisie’s sketch but didn’t know that the main stone should be tanzanite, which would bring it to a new level.
Willow was secretly delighted in the Blossom Room. Her heart was filled with excitement as she
saw the price on the screen increase.
Larissa turned and looked at her. “This is your design?”
Willow smiled and nodded. “Yes.”
But wait, after the next item was shown on the screen, there was confusion in the crowd, and the discussion was even louder.
“Isn’t this the same item?”
“What is happening? Are they auctioning two of the same item? That’s just robbery.”
Larissa looked at Willow, reserved. “What is this?”
Willow feigned ignorance. “I have no idea. I think my design has been plagiarized.”
She thought that this would be the end of Maisie!
However, when it was shown that the seller for this ‘Peacock’s Pride’ was Zora, everyone was astonished.
The international jewelry designer Zora’s design was the same as the new designer Willow Vanderbilt!?
The crew scurried to check if something had gone wrong with the computer, but the diagnostics showed that it wasn’t an error.
