Chapter 75 - A Legendary Ring

18 hours earlier, New York City.

"Good evening Ms. Rochester, it's a pleasure to finally meet you." A woman in her thirties smiles widely to a girl who also replied to her with the same wide smile.

"Pleasure is all mine, Mrs. Johnson." Sarah deliberately hugs her and brush her cheek with the woman who is very famous in reality show among the richest family all around the world. It'll look more natural to act friendly with her.

"Did I came too soon?" She holding both of her hands while peeking behind the girl back for a moment. She only saw Sarah and Mrs. Barbara who's greet her at the entrance foyer of the main mansion of Wayne.

"Oh, no no... I'm sorry if the house is a bit quite. I told them to not interrupting our interview session today. After all, my family's quite busy these days... that's why, you know." Barbara reply to Elle Johnson who put on a smile on her face after hearing her explanation. It looks like she doesn't buy what she just told her.

"I see..so, should we start our interview session right now?" She asked while turning her body to the crew, signaling them to get ready in position.

"Sure, Mrs. Johnson." Sarah then leads them all to the main living hall. It is a gathering hall where all the Wayne family usually gather around at each festive season and holidays. It was so vast with a lot of antique and rare collection displayed on the hall's walls. It probably cost a couple of hundred thousand dollars. There's also a lineage picture of Wayne's leader through the generation.

The last leader's frame belongs to the only woman who succeeds to sit on the throne. It was none other than Madam Victoria. The hall also decorates with beautiful and big majestic pillars inside the building and it was really amazing.

Even this hall is quite big and luxurious, it's also quite comfy and feels like at home. Elle was amazed by the unique decorations and the floor plan of this building. Even from the outside, the mansion just looks like the European concept manor, but the inside and the back was totally mind-blowing.

"You have such a nice house." She honestly compliments the owner of the house.

Feeling bashful, Barbara smile and says "Thank you." Feeling no shame at all thinking that this mansion is her property and she already planned to take over this house in a few more years ahead.

Elle only looked at them both, "Can I record this?" She tries to fishing the shameless woman who declared this mansion is hers.

"Sure, go ahead. We have more at the other side of the mansion that you should explore and shows to the world..uh, I mean.. Experiencing the view from inside of my mansion." She immediately adjusting her statement to not sound like she just wanna brag about her fortune.

"Sure, Mrs. Barbara..um, but we take step by step first. Do you need to put on makeup first, Mrs. Barbara?" Elle asked while looking at both sides of her face, indicating that she needs to put more makeup to cover up her wrinkles.

Touches both of her cheek, she says "Oh, do I must to?" She chuckles and signals her own butler to bring her makeup tools.

Elle nods her head while putting on a plastic smile before she sat down on the single luxurious sofa in the hall. All of the crew setting up the equipment and give a question script to her. Rehearsal for a minute before they start the interview session.

...

"Start in three! Two! One!" The cameraman gives a signal to his men with an 'action' board.

Clik.

"Good evening everyone and now you're with me Elle Johnson in the segment of 'Wonderful Wedding!' to interviewing a couple which is assumed as a match from heaven and gonna held a grand wedding of this year! Here welcoming Ms. Sarah Rochester and her future mother-in-law, Mrs. Barbara Wayne!" The camera change focus on both of the woman who sits gracefully like a real princess and queen. A pair of harmony in-laws which will make many people turn jealousy seeing how compatible they were.

Smiling lovely while hugging Barbara's shoulder before she leans her head softly on it, she makes a cute face with adorable sparkling eyes. "Thank you for coming here today, Elle. I'm very lucky today that I feel like I'm the luckiest girl in the world right now. It's like my dream come true and my fiance is the best man I ever had in my whole life."

"Ooh... I'm flattered that you feeling that way. I'm sure you're a lucky girl to have a perfect man such as a handsome Mr. Raymond's as your fiance. Speaking of which, I don't see the man in question though.."

Sarah giggled and place her hand on Elle's hand, looking at her with a girly look. "My fiance currently working in another country, however, he asked me to says hello to everyone. He said how he wishes to accompany me for the interview today, but I politely refuse him. I want him to put his career first and I glad that I can support him, you know.." she just bluffing about Raymond which is not true at all.

"Wow..you're such an amazing fiance. Most of the girls like when her man put them first over everything, but look at you, girl! You deserve applause for being a very considerate partner. Now I know why he fell head over heels for you!" Elle clapping her hand which makes Sarah's put her hand on her chest and smile like she was very touched by the treatment she gets.

Elle's eyes stare at her big diamond ring which looks more than a couple of billions of dollars. She then makes a gasps sound and softly touched Sarah's hand "Oh my Lord, is that a glamorous ring which is passed down by the generation of Wayne family? The last time I saw it when I was younger, Madam Victoria wore it in the front newspaper when she got engaged with Marquess Williams Wayne. Ah~ it such a legendary ring."

Sarah cupped her face with her hands and turn around to look at Barbara. Showing an act like she wasn't aware of that ring priceless amount and was so shocked after Elle said that.

Barbara nods her head while caressing Sarah's arm. "Raymond said that he wanted to surprise you by giving the heirloom ring to the person whom he loves so much. And we as a family member of Wayne do not object his choice at all. You were always his love no matter what."

With that being said, Sarah hugs Barbara's with a few tears on the corner of her eyes. Very splendid acts from the two which they successfully convinced everyone who watches the shows.
