NovelBookChapter 185
Instantly, a few women surrounded her and started a discussion.
"Yeah, it looks quite nice."
"Look at this finish. It must be very expensive!"
Patricia lowered her head and looked at her necklace while thinking about its price. All of them would
definitely be very shocked if she told them how much it cost. Hence, she smiled faintly. "It's just from
the marketplace, so it's nothing expensive."
As she said that, she quickly placed the necklace underneath her clothes. I must be careful not to let it
slip out again next time. Otherwise, if someone who knows its worth sees it, it will definitely be taken
away.
In fact, she didn't want to wear it out at all; she just wanted to keep it at home. However, Isaac wouldn't
let her do that, and he even checked on her every single day. Sigh! He's the big boss, after all.
"How much is it, then?"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtCersei and Olivia were both staring at her, after which Cersei said, "Just tell us how much it is."
The two of them had their arms crossed in front of their chests, and they couldn't stop looking at
Patricia's neck. They were completely drawn into her necklace.
Since they had been living their lives in high society for quite a long time, they were interested in
accessories like this, and they had good taste as well. Although they couldn't tell which brand that
necklace was from, its craftsmanship and pattern made it a classic item, and its worth would increase
with time.
Even if it was nothing expensive, it didn't look awkward on Patricia. On the contrary, it made her look
classy.
Since Patricia was being cornered by them, she eventually said, "Fifty bucks."
They probably wouldn't be interested in things that were worth only fifty, so she told them an extremely
low price to stop them from pestering her.
Unexpectedly, each of them transferred a hundred to her. "We want two necklaces for each of us."
A shocked Patricia looked at her phone. They're really buying a necklace worth fifty bucks? It was
really out of her expectations, and she felt distressed.
After she named the price, a few of the maids came over too. "We want it too, Miss Patricia. It must be
good if both Madams like it. Doesn't it cost fifty bucks? All of us want one as well."
Instantly, Patricia was surrounded by them, and they were taking up their phones, wanting to scan her
QR code to transfer the money to her. At that moment, she felt as though she had come back to the
Aniston Residence for business.
Then, Adeline came over and sneered. "Are you doing business at home now, Patricia? Are you that
poor?"
When the maids heard that, they quickly moved out of the way as they were all afraid of Adeline. Even
when she hadn't been pampered before, she was already arrogant at home. Now that she was getting
married into the Arnold Family, she became even worse. When the maids made a little mistake, she
would scold them, hit them, and chase them out right away.
She walked to Patricia's side and looked at her neck in disdain. "Aunt Cersei, Aunt Olivia, what's there
that's attracting the both of you?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmCersei and Olivia wore an awkward expression on their faces since they didn't dare go against Adeline
now. Adeline didn't like Patricia, so when Patricia returned, she could only be the little miss of the
Anistons.
Both of them said at the same time, "Nothing."
While they were walking away, Patricia said, "Aunt Cersei, Aunt Olivia, this necklace is the only one in
the world. I'm afraid that I can't help you with it." She raised her voice on purpose to let everyone hear it
so that no one would come to her, wanting to buy her necklace anymore. As for the payments she
received on Venmo, she would transfer the amount back to them anyway.
At this moment, Adeline looked at her coldly and said, "Why did you come back? You're not one of the
Anistons anymore. This is a family dinner within the Aniston Family, you know."
Even though Isaac was going to get engaged to Adeline soon, he wasn't in a position to participate in
the family dinner. He could only wait until they were married; only then was he considered one of the
Anistons. Patricia has long been kicked out of the Aniston Family, so on what grounds is she here?
She walked to Patricia's side and looked at her neck in disdain. "Aunt Cersei, Aunt Olivia, what's there
that's attracting the both of you?"
