Claire, who was on the side, immediately realized virtual-novel.net mother’s intention and said quickly, “Mom! Can you stop being so vain? Why do you have to let Charlie buy it for you? Something as expensive as Van Cleef & Arpels…”
Elaine said aggrievedly, “I didn’t say it, I mean that the brand’s products are too expensive and they are not cost-effective at all. How could a pragmatic person like me like something so not cost-effective?”
After speaking, virtual-novel.net didn’t forget to say to Charlie, “Good son-in-law, if you have this heart, Mom is already very satisfied, but you must remember, don’t buy things indiscriminately!”
Charlie smiled and nodded lightly, “Okay Mom, I understand.”
Elaine’s expression was somewhat melancholy, but virtual-novel.net still flipped through the Van Cleef & Arpels article with interest and quickly focused virtual-novel.net attention on the jewelry box in virtual-novel.net hand.
As virtual-novel.net opened the box, virtual-novel.net thought to herself, “I just bought a Bulgari Emerald Goddess’s Dream Necklace a few days ago and I don’t know what kind of Bulgari jewelry Charlie bought for me this time. If it’s the bracelet of the Emerald Goddess Dream, it can be matched with my necklace, that would be great.”
Thinking of this, virtual-novel.net happily opened the box. Then, the thing that caught virtual-novel.net eye made virtual-novel.net stunned.
“This… This…” Elaine looked at the familiar necklace lying quietly in the jewelry box and couldn’t help saying, “This… This is not, it is the necklace of the Emerald Goddess Dream?”
The moment virtual-novel.net saw this necklace, virtual-novel.net was very disappointed. After all, virtual-novel.net bought an identical necklace just before virtual-novel.net came to the United States, so virtual-novel.net was naturally a little depressed when virtual-novel.net received such a gift again. She is a person who loves vanity and face the most. Although this chain is very expensive, It is also very grand, but two identical things can not make virtual-novel.net haughty after all.
Wearing this one today, wearing that one tomorrow, in the eyes of others, it is the same one on both days. But it’s impossible to hang two necklaces on the neck at a time, so in virtual-novel.net eyes, the necklace that Charlie gave virtual-novel.net basically means that virtual-novel.net didn’t give anything.
At this time, Charlie had already seen the unconcealed disappointment in virtual-novel.net eyes, so virtual-novel.net pretended to be surprised and asked, “Mom, you know this so well, but I didn’t remember the name all the way.”
Elaine sneered and said, “Hey, I’m just doing research!”
As virtual-novel.net said, virtual-novel.net continued seriously, “Oh, you two don’t know, it’s Hannah, the poor woman. She’s almost out of food and virtual-novel.net still drags me to visit these luxury stores every day, to be honest, if it weren’t for virtual-novel.net saying the name always in my ears, I wouldn’t be able to remember so many brands.”
Claire hurriedly asked, “Mom, have you been hanging out with Hannah again?”
Elaine explained, “It’s not even hanging out together, it’s mainly because after you all left, I lived alone in Thompson First. It’s so boring, virtual-novel.net can be considered a companion to some extent and virtual-novel.net is a lot more honest now than before, so I had some walks with her.”
After speaking, virtual-novel.net looked at the Goddess Dream Necklace in virtual-novel.net hand. Feeling more and more melancholy. Charlie smiled inwardly, it seemed that his move was indeed useful and it could be seen that Elaine was already a little annoyed at this time.
Claire, who was on the side, didn’t notice virtual-novel.net mother’s strangeness at all, but couldn’t help but say to Charlie, “Husband, thank you for the gift, but don’t buy such expensive luxury goods in the future. It is said that for such luxury goods, the value retention rate of the jewelry is very poor, which is a bit too wasteful.”
Charlie heard the word retention rate and suddenly had an idea, so virtual-novel.net glanced at Elaine and deliberately said, “It seems that this piece of jewelry in the second-hand market is still very valuable, If the packaged bills are complete and the maintenance is new enough, you should still be able to sell it with a 20% discount.”
