Diana’s pov
“What did you say?” my maid yelled, “We have already got the highest bid and hammered that bracelet!”
I told my maid to step back and go to the staff myself, “You should not sell it to anybody, with or without our acknowledge.”
“The other party is the Alpha of the Dark Moon pack. What can we do? Besides, this is all my boss’s request. I’m just an employee, it’s useless for you to get angry at me.” The staff member looked embarrassed and muttered in a low voice, “You guys It’s better to go to Alpha Nathan to negotiate…”
“you –
The maid rushed up and wanted to argue with the staff.
I grabbed her arm.
“Miss?”
I took a deep breath and suppressed the anger in my heart.
“I am here to get my bracelet, not to pursue responsibility. He is right. The most important thing right now is to find Nathan.”
I turned around and left with the maid.
Avia doesn’t really like that pearl bracelet at all, I could see it a week ago at the banquet.
She saw me wanting it, so she made Nathan buy it for her.
She did all this just to get back at me.
I’m worried that she would just throw the bracelet away or break it.
Just before we got out of the door, I heard the staff gossiping about me in a taunting
voice –
“Fortunately, the bracelet was bought by Alpha Nathan. If it were really left to Diana, she wouldn’t be able to come up with 400 million.”
“How do you say this?”
“Didn’t you listen to what the previous guests said? Diana had to buy that bracelet because she was jealous of Avia. It was all Alpha Marc’s money! Do you think Alpha Marc would really go crazy and let Diana spend 400 million to buy it? Do you want to
buy that bracelet? If Alpha Nathan hadn’t helped us out, this bracelet would have been a waste of time and was passed!”
“Huh? This Diana is too hateful! She is jealous of Avia, but she wants to drag everyone to waste time with her!”
“That’s right! Fortunately, our boss has the foresight.”
“By the way, Alpha Nathan is too kind to Avia! Eight hundred million, just to buy her a pearl bracelet… I’m so jealous!”
“That’s not true, I also heard…”
The words of the two people broke into my ears word by word.
I stopped and turned my head to stare at them coldly.
The two of them were stunned for a moment and then calmed down.
“So you heard it. So what? Do you dare to complain to Alpha Marc? Being jealous of her ex– husband’s current date in public is a disgrace to Blade Moon Pack!”
The other staff pulled his sleeve and whispered in a not–so–low voice, “Hmph! So what if she tells Alpha Marc? She will probably only get scolded by Alpha Marc!”
I had no intention of making them pay back what I lost.
But they obviously didn’t appreciate it.
In this case, why should I bother saving their face?
I stared at them and smiled slightly.
“If I remember correctly, your boss, the organizer of this auction, is Jack Chappel?”
“So what?”
“Nothing, just want to make sure I got the name right.”
1 put away my smile and said expressionlessly
“Notice the city, Jack Chappel’s company can declare bankruptcy early tomorrow morning.”
“Yes.” The maid immediately took out the phone and dialed a number.
In less than a minute, the maid told me that the matter had been settled.
Immediately, the blood on the faces of the two staff members completely faded.
One of the staff members reacted but still refused to believe it. He swallowed and said, “You, you said bankruptcy? Who do you think you are? Let me tell you! Our company is one of the top 500 companies in the world! You
“Then just wait and see.”
I sneered and left the backstage.
The maid quickly found the hotel where Nathan was staying.
After getting out of the car, I went straight to the penthouse floor.
I knocked on the door patiently, telling myself repeatedly to stay calm.
There was a ‘click‘ sound.
The door opened.
It was Avia.
At this time, she was wearing a pair of s*xy pink silk pajama dresses that exposed a large area of her skin. She was leaning against the door frame with her hair half wet and looking at me with a proud look.
It’s hard not to think about what she just done with Nathan.
“I knew you would come.” She raised her lips, “How about it? I told you, Nathan will definitely settle that pearl bracelet for me. You lose.”
“I’m not interested in fighting with you. It’s not a win–lose situation.” I said coldly, “I want to see Nathan.”
“It’s not convenient for him to see you now. Just tell me if you have anything to do,”
The nerve in my forehead jumped.
What do you mean it’s not convenient to see me?
I subconsciously glanced into the room.
Avia immediately stood up straight and blocked my sight.
“I said, just tell me if you have anything to say.” She stared at me warily.
I withdrew my gaze and said as calmly as possible, “I’ll get my bracelet back.”
“Your bracelet?” Avia sneered, “Are you not mistaken, Diana? This bracelet belongs to me now. Nathan spent a total of 800 million to buy it for me! If you want it so much, you might as well go find a man to buy it for you! But no one is willing to spend 800 million for you.”
Avia’s laughter became louder and louder, and she seemed to particularly enjoy the pleasure of suppressing me at this moment.
I clenched my fists.
However, no matter how disgusting her behavior was, her words were not wrong.
If the auction firm sold the bracelet to Nathan with a price of 800 million, technically it does not belong to me now.
I can only endure it.
“That’s it.” I calmed down my emotions and said, “You make a price. No matter how much it is, I just want to get this bracelet back.”
“Are you kidding me?” Avia chuckled, her eyes full of showoff, “Do you think what I want is money? Nathan would be willing to buy the Whitehouse for me no matter how expensive it is. Your money means nothing to me.
“Then what do you want? Anything that you can give me the bracelet?” I had no choice but to ask.
Perhaps it was my attitude of enduring it that aroused Avia’s interest, and Avia looked me up and down.
“Now I’m suddenly curious about why you must get this bracelet. Why don’t you tell me your reasons? I might be willing to consider it.”
I gritted my teeth and said, “This pearl bracelet is a legacy of my mother. I beg you to resell it to me.”
Avia was stunned for a moment.
Immediately, she took out the pearl bracelet from her pocket and looked around.
“You said this is your mother’s legacy?” She was slightly surprised. “Right.”
I nodded, hope rising in my heart. If she has any sense of humanity
“You should have said it earlier.” Avia blinked, “Well, since it is your mother’s
legacy then I will
—)
legacy, then I will…”
Avia said as she handed the bracelet to me.
I breathed a sigh of relief and reached out to pick it up.
However, just when I was about to touch the bracelet, Avia suddenly smiled brigh
at me.
Immediately afterward, the bracelet slipped from her palm and fell to the ground with a “pop” sound.
I had to immediately bend down to pick it up.
But Avia moved quicker and stepped on the pearl bracelet. Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
“Don’t-” I yelled urgently, falling to the ground because I missed the opportunity and my knees hit the marble floor hard.
Avia suddenly laughed out scarily loud, with a look of successful mischief on her face.
Looking at my embarrassed posture, she said, “Then you will never get it back, yo miserable b*tch!”
