Chapter 286
Laura furtively followed Janelle.
Janelle and Camden were whispering something.

Camden said, “I have asked them to turn off the surveillance video. It’s just in time for you to go there. Remember, that woman’s gift box is black. Don’t make a mistake.”
Janelle nodded, looking for a suitable time to enter the gift room.
Laura suddenly had an idea, went back to Xander, and grabbed his phone.
Xander looked at her, feeling confused.
She smiled awkwardly. “I need a phone in the restroom. I’m not happy without it.”
Really? That was a weird habit.
He said indifferently, “The password is 878512.”
Laura nodded and sneaked into the gift room with a phone bigger than her two hands.
The table was piled with presents.
She walked to the Blade’s gift and hesitated for a moment. She then took off the bracelet on her wrist and exchanged it with the ancient landscape painting inside.
As far as she knew, people in TV series would steal or destroy the things of the female lead and then tell the one that the female lead wanted to please that the female lead gave an empty gift or a bad one.
Then the female lead would be misunderstood.
Laura hated seeing that scene.
Therefore, the first step to protect a female lead was to save her gift.
Laura put the bracelet in the gift box. Suddenly, she heard the sound of the door opening outside and curled up behind the curtains decisively.
Janelle came in cautiously.
Seeing this, Laura was overjoyed.
Wow! She bet right!
They just want to destroy Blade’s gift.
She curled up behind the curtains, carefully placed the painting on the ground, and then unlocked Xander’s phone. Then she found the camera and took a video as evidence.

Janelle had found the black box and inside it was a very, very delicate Swarovski necklace.
“That’s it?” She snorted. “She gave this kind of thing as a birthday gift? My dog has a better chain than this.”
Well, she managed to hurt Laura’s feelings.
Laura secretly took out her phone and took photos of Janelle.
Janelle didn’t look carefully, just threw the bracelet on the ground and jumped up to trample it.
She stepped on it and shouted, “You want to throw orange juice on me? You two bad people. I’ll punish you.
“Crush you to death! I’ll crush you to death! I’ll crush you to death! I’ll crush you to death!”
Laura was so shocked that her eyes almost fell out.
Was there a possibility that the real bad guys were not her and Blade, but Janelle and Cassidy?
Laura pouted in anger and watched her bracelet break, but she couldn’t save it.
Janelle was relieved, fixed her hair, put the bracelet back on, and left comfortably.
It was done without a hitch.
There was no pause.
Laura bit her lips in anger, turned the camera back to herself, and said seriously, “Guys, what we just saw is outrageous. Janelle’s mother and father betrayed my mother, and now they even instigate their daughter to destroy my mother’s gift. What kind of behavior is this? Let’s wait and see!”
After saying that, she saved the video and took a glance at it again.
Good. The video was a little shaky, but she did an excellent job.
What Janelle said and what she did were all recorded.
Laura smiled confidently, so she slid the album.
Next to the video was a photo of her and Xander.
Laura was stunned.
The photo was the day she and Xander attended a variety show.
She smiled happily at Xander.
Xander looked down at her.
The photo was filtered and looked gentle and harmonious, just like a family in love.
She was in a trance.

Did he keep this?
Shouldn’t he have hated her back then?

Without thinking too much, Laura took back the phone and sneaked out of the gift room. She put the landscape painting in her small bag and walked to Xander.
At this time, Xander’s sofa was surrounded by children.
A crowd of boys and girls talked around him.
Xander crossed his legs, with one hand against his temple. He glanced at these children carelessly but kept a polite smile on his face.
Janelle sat beside him, her eyes full of enthusiasm. “Big brother, you look really good–looking. Your name is Xander? What does your family do?
The child beside her blamed Janelle, “Janelle, don’t you know Xander? Their family is involved in many fields. His mother is a real estate giant. His uncle is the principal of Skyline Academy. His second uncle is Robert Yale and his third uncle runs Hestrya’s largest media company.”
Janelle was surprised. “Really, Xander? Is your family really that powerful? How much pocket money do you have a month?”
A trace of disgust appeared in Xander’s eyes.
She became more and more excited. “20,000 dollars? 40,000 dollars? 60,000 dollars?”
The other girls pulled her and said, “How come? I heard that Mr. Smith is generous. His pocket money a month is far more than that. You can’t spend all the money, right?”
Xander nodded politely. “Well, I like investing.”
The boy was surprised. “Can you invest now?”
He nodded. “I borrowed it from my parents, but I got a lot of benefits.”
Janelle was speechless.
Investment?
That was what adults do!
He had already invested at such a young age.
He must have made a lot of money,
But her pocket money was only 2,000 dollars a month.
If Xander could be her brother, she would buy a lot of beautiful school bags every month. She could choose any good–looking skirts and limited–edition shoes at will.

She could have as many sweets as she wanted.
It would be a small piece of cake to get all the fancy things.
Janelle became more and more excited, approaching Xander a little closer.
Xander frowned and suddenly noticed Laura outside the crowd.

All their attention was on Xander. Following his eyes, they saw Laura standing opposite them in a daze.
She was already dumbfounded.
Because she didn’t expect her brother to be so popular.
And she didn’t expect him to be so gentle in front of outsiders.
He had a dark face when he saw her for the first time.
Now he looked like a normal person.
But in the eyes of everyone, Laura looked stupid and silly with dark hair and thick black–rimmed glasses.
She was holding a phone that didn’t match the size of her palm, which made her a bumpkin.
Xander breathed a sigh of relief and said, “This is my…”
Janelle interrupted, “Why are you here? Are you here to please Xander?”
Did this girl know what she was talking about?
