"Linden, this gift is too much. I can't accept it."
Although it was true that Becky liked Linden, she could not accept such a valuable gift unconditionally. It was fine if she did not know anything about it. However, now that she knew, she would not accept it no matter what he said.
"I got it from the Crimson Wolves. Consider it their reparations for bullying you." Linden casually explained the gemstone's origin. He did not even bother to receive the Imperial Emerald Necklace that Becky had passed him.
"The Crimson Wolves. I did not expect them to have such a valuable item. I guess they did not know its value. If they had known they had a treasure worth 400,000 gold coins in their hands, they would never have helped the Debussys attack the Crests for the sake of 50,000 gold coins."
