Chapter 580 Jenny's Extra Income
Aaron's words were clear enough, he suspected that Jenny had taken my ruby necklace
"If she really didn't know about rubies and their value, I could maybe consider whether I had any bias towards her. But unfortunately, she had done extensive research on rubies. The Star of the Sunrise was auctioned off twenty years ago and has been kept in private collections ever since. Even though it was reported on television at that time, how old was Jenny then? Her memory may not be so clear."
Olive, do you remember that the gemstone embedded in your necklace was actually a hand-cut ruby? The Star of the Sunrise is practically the pioneer of craftsmanship for all ruby jewelry
in this century. If there is any appraisal or transaction involving that necklace, both parties cannot avoid mentioning the Star of the Sunrise
This is a perspective I had never considered before
I jolted upright on the sofa, my eyes fixed on Aaron leaning against the headboard, my mind racing
Yes, when Jenny mentioned the name of Star of the Sunrise today, I was simply amazed that I actually had the legendary and valuable ruby ring in my hand. I never imagined that her living environment would be impossible to come into contact with such high-end gemstones
This has nothing to do with discrimination, it is Just a reasonable fact derived from her own stated family circumstances
Moreover, she had also implicitly agreed with my statement - given her family background, she had no clue about high-end dress fabrics, which also meant that she couldn't possibly have such accurate discernment of gemstones
Even I, who often come into contact with high-end gemstones, cannot accurately determine whether what is in front of me 1s a stone or a piece of jewelry. However, she can instantly recognize the many imitations of the Morning Star
There are only two possibilities. Either Jenny had studied this subject specifically, or she had encountered knowledge related to rubies on a particular occasion, making her very sensitive to this type of jewelry
"So you're saying that Jenny took my ruby necklace, and during the resale phase, she was
informed about the scientific knowledge related to rubies, which is why she behaved so illogically today?"
As I reminisced, when Jenny saw the ring, her astonishment and envy were completely instinctive reactions
However, at that time Aaron was discussing with me the topic of the ruby necklace, but she loudly praised the ring on my hand. Now thinking back, it is difficult to say that she did not intentionally divert the topic
And at this moment, Aaron was very satisfied with my current state of mind, which closely followed his thoughts
He nodded and then told me, "I have already sent someone to check on Jenny's family situation. Her father has become much more
restrained since he paid off his gambling debts last time, and so far he hasn't caused any major trouble again. According to Jenny's neighbors, her parents have been living well recently
Every week when she goes back, she always brings a bunch of fresh food. In addition, her father has also boasted multiple times that Jenny sends a large sum of money back home every week."
"But the last time I settled Jenny's salary was half a month ago."
I suddenly realized and looked at Aaron incredulously
Her father may not have been boasting at all, but Jenny really did send money back every week
However, the source of this money was definitely not the salary I gave her last month
Although Aaron and I didn't give her a small
amount of compensation, it wasn't enough for her to support her four family members every week

Unless Jenny had other income during this half month, but she couldn't bring it home all at once, she could only bring it to her parents in batches when she went back every week
The more I thought about it, the more I felt a chill in my heart. If Jenny's income this month really came from my ruby necklace, honestly, I don't know how to face her
Jenny has always been a hardworking and polite girl with a noble character in my heart. I am unwilling to use the word "thief" to describe her, but if she really did such a thing, I cannot convince myself to forgive her
Aaron's intuition and judgment have always been accurate, but this time, I desperately hoped that his judgment had a flaw
"I... I will be careful, Aaron. But until we uncover the truth, I hope you won't make any more probing moves towards Jenny. At least let's get through the children's first birthday party, we have plenty of time to investigate whether she has actually done anything wrong."
I approached Aaron and pondered for a while before finally expressing my thoughts to him
After all, it seems that Jenny was still very good to the children
