Second pregnancy, sixth child: The beloved mom's disguise has been exposed again.

Chapter 94 officially announces the pursuit of Bella.

Upon hearing this, the people around her all showed disdain, feeling ashamed of Ning Yao's behavior.

These women mostly came from noble ducal families, considered themselves more cultured than commoners, looked down on others, and were used to presenting themselves as superior.

"Miss Bella comes from a commoner background, which makes sense. In the eyes of ordinary people, survival is much more important than life. They wouldn't understand what collectible value is..."

"If she knew that Miss Shanna's gem necklace was worth at least three billion, she'd probably be so shocked her jaw would drop to the floor, right?"

"I heard that she recently rented a mall membership and went on a shopping spree, buying a whole bunch of luxury goods."

These comments are clearly directed at Ning Yao. Didn't she sell a piece of imperial green jade at the jade gambling convention just two days ago?

These women's statements undoubtedly defined her as a tasteless and short-sighted nouveau riche.

Ning Yao smiled, but did not defend herself.

Shanna walked up to Ning Yao, raised an eyebrow at the gemstone brooch on her dress, her provocation obvious.

"Miss Bella, your brooch is quite beautiful. I'll offer three times the price to buy it. Would you be willing?"

Robert gave her this brooch; Ning Yao didn't know its price, and even if she did, she wouldn't sell it to Shanna.

Seeing that Ning Yao didn't react, Shanna snorted and continued, "I'll offer ten times that, or you can name your price."

"Miss Shanna has already agreed to give you ten times the price, Miss Bella, don't try to ask for too much."

"Exactly, it's just an orange diamond, how much is it worth? You'd be laughing all the way to the bank if it were worth ten times the price."

Immediately, people around echoed Shanna's words, urging Ning Yao to sell the gemstone brooch to Shanna.

Chairman Xu was also invited to Bruce's party. He spotted Ning Yao from afar, strode over, and greeted her.

Chairman Xu is a highly respected figure in Country Y, and many noble young men and women recognize him. In particular, his appearance as Mr. Bruce's VIP guest makes him even more prominent.

Shanna spoke to Chairman Xu before Ning Yao could, and continued, "Chairman Xu, could you please help me estimate the value of Miss Bella's gemstone brooch? I'm planning to buy it for ten times the price. Could you give me a price estimate?"

"Oh? You're planning to offer ten times the price?" Chairman Xu became interested and immediately looked at the gemstone brooch on Ning Yao's body.

Seeing that Chairman Xu was interested, Ning Yao readily took off the brooch and put it in Chairman Xu's hand.

Chairman Xu knew that Ning Yao was a capable person, and her gemstone brooch must be something extraordinary.

He examined the pale orange gemstone brooch in his hand for a long time, and then his expression suddenly changed.

President Xu turned to look at Ning Yao, his eyes burning with undisguised emotion, and his voice trembled slightly.

“Miss Bella, this… could this be the long-lost Paraiba yellow gem?”

"Parai?" Shanna didn't understand what Chairman Xu was saying and asked in confusion.

"Yes, the color of this gem is quite special, extremely rare. I have never seen such a high-purity orange gem. Apart from the Parai topaz mentioned in history, I cannot think of any other gem that can compare to it..."

Chairman Xu was an avid collector of gemstones, and upon seeing such a fine piece, he immediately looked at Ning Yao with excitement.

"Miss Bella, is this really a Parai topaz?"

Ning Yao didn't want to hide it from Chairman Xu. Seeing his eagerness to know, she casually replied, "I just thought it was pretty and used it to match this dress. As for whether it's a Parai yellow gemstone, I don't know."

The jewelry was a gift from Robert. Of course, Ning Yao also had someone go to the store to buy and pay for it, so it was already considered her property.

Orange gemstones are indeed rare, but she thought they were beautiful and would go well with her dress, so she pinned them to her chest.

"Are you really going to buy it for ten times the price?" Chairman Xu carefully handed the gemstone brooch back to Ning Yao, then turned to ask Shanna.

Shanna had no idea how valuable the yellow gemstone was. She frowned and asked suspiciously, "Yeah, how much is this thing worth?"

"It's priceless and there's no market for it. Leaders of many countries are interested in this gem. Even with the lowest budget, it would cost tens of billions."

"Before his death, the Prime Minister of Country K said that he was willing to spend 200 million just to see this legendary yellow gemstone once."

Upon hearing Chairman Xu's words, all the nobles present froze on the spot, instinctively gasping for breath.

What kind of treasure-level stone could make someone spend 200 million just to see it once?

"What?!" Shanna was completely shocked by Chairman Xu's words. The offer of ten times the price had already been made, and she was now completely unable to back down.

Bruce was also drawn to the commotion on Ning Yao's end and came over with his guests to see what was going on. When he heard what Chairman Xu said, he was filled with disbelief.

Bruce was deeply shocked, and his gaze toward Ning Yao gradually became one of infatuation.

Beautiful Miss Bella, you really know how to surprise people!

Duke Argyll's men noticed Ning Yao's location and immediately reached out to grab her and take her to the Duke.

Ning Yao is the culprit who caused Miss Clarisse to lose a leg, and they must arrest her according to the Duke's orders.

Bruce was displeased and gave his men a signal to immediately stop Duke Argyll's subordinates.

When Duke Argyll's subordinates saw that Bruce was going to protect Ning Yao, they immediately threatened, "Mr. Bruce, are you going to ruin the marriage alliance between our two families for the sake of a powerless woman?"

Bruce hesitated. He had recently run into some trouble and it was really inconvenient to make things too ugly with Duke Argyll at the moment.

Bruce's phone suddenly vibrated. He picked it up and glanced at it. His eyes lit up instantly, his attitude became firm, and his steady voice was resounding.

"I'm sorry, Miss Bella is my honored guest, and I will never allow anyone to lay a hand on my guest at my party."

"Everyone loves beauty. I like Miss Bella, and I'm willing to divorce Clarice for her."

"Miss Bella, from now on I will officially pursue you. Please consider carefully whether you want to be my wife."

Duke Argyll's subordinates looked extremely grim. Bruce was so openly pursuing a woman who had cut off his wife's leg; it was clear he was going against their family.

Bruce's ex-girlfriends, who were watching the spectacle, were also shocked, silently tightening their nails and rubbing their skirts into wrinkles.

They had never received such favor from Bruce. Let alone openly pursuing him, even getting Bruce to divorce Clarice and be together in secret was a pipe dream they wouldn't even dare to dream of.

But now all these extravagant hopes have actually come true for an ordinary woman. How can they not be jealous?
