Kassidy let out a derisive snort directed at Loraine, instructing the servant to bring forth a delicate
jewelry box. With careful precision she opened it and revealed its contents.
A crowd swarmed around, intrigued by the sight.

Laying before them was an astonishingly refined brooch.
The enormous sapphire at the center was encircled by twelve dazzling diamonds. The golden base
exuded elegance and nobility, while the rare three-dimensional crescent moon shape added a unique
and captivating beauty. The brooch sparkled brightly, its surface pristine and flawless.
With a lifted chin, Kassidy turned to Loraine. “Feast your eyes on this priceless piece. You may be
affluent, but such a treasure is a rare sight.”
To those unfamiliar with jewelry, it would appear as if the brooch was a recently crafted piece, brand
new and freshly designed.
Loraine, though, refrained from touching the brooch. After a careful examination, she voiced her
judgment.
“Victorian era antique, isn’t it?”
Expecting Loraine to embarrass herself, Kassidy was caught off guard by her comment.

She hadn’t predicted Loraine’s insightful observation. Spot on, first try!
Despite her initial reluctance, she was left with no choice but to admit, “Yes!”
Perhaps Loraine merely got lucky with her guess
Kassidy sought solace within herself and proudly showcased her brooch to everyone around, basking
in the attention it garnered.
“This is a unique piece made for Queen Victoria, named the Blue Moon.
When the prince presented the Blue Moon to the queen, she donned this very brooch on her wedding
day…”
Kassidy’s recounting stirred envy in the crowd. Someone curiously inquired, “Did Queen Victoria truly
wear this piece?”
Arrogantly, Kassidy confirmed with a nod, “Indeed!”
Loraine initially nodded along with Kassidy’s narration. However, upon hearing the claim, Loraine
couldn’t help but furrow her brows.
“Though the brooch is a masterpiece, it certainly isn’t Queen
Victoria’s Blue Moon,” she asserted.
Her statement ignited a sudden tumult among the crowd, who looked at
Kassidy with strange expressions.
Nothing was more shameful for an antique collector than passing off a counterfeit as authentic!
