Divorce Has Never Felt This Good Chapter 23
Divorce Has Never Felt This Good
After throwing the check, Becky turned around and said to Jessie, âLetâs go.â
Jessie nodded. Before leaving, she glanced at Denise and wrinkled her nose in disgust. âIs she out of her mind?â
Becky shrugged. âWho knows?â
âHer bracelet is worth less than four hundred thousand dollars. Did she seriously think that you couldnât afford it?â Jessie snorted.
The voices of the two were neither loud nor low, but Denise heard them clearly.
Denise couldnât control herself anymore. âStop, Becky!â
As she shouted, she started to chase after Becky. But before she could take two steps, Rory grabbed her by the wrist.
Denise was so angry that when she was forcibly stopped, she turned around to curse her captor. But when her eyes met Roryâs, she instantly stiffened. âRory...â
âDonât you feel ashamed of yourself yet? Enough!â
Denise and her friends had falsely accused Becky of sneaking in with a stolen invitation. When that failed, they accused Becky of stealing Deniseâs bracelet.
But instead of explaining herself, Becky simply ripped Deniseâs bracelet and paid for it. This action was enough to prove that she didnât give a damn about the bracelet.
Just then, someone in the crowd gasped, âOh, my God! Beckyâs earringsâarenât they from the Bay Pearl series?â
âMaybe they are fake. The Bay Pearl series is only sold as a set that costs over thirty million dollars.â
âThey donât look fake. Look, the bracelet on her wrist matches the earrings! Itâs a set! Oh, my God! Iâve been wanting the Bay Pearl series since forever, but I canât afford it...â
It was known to all in these rich circles that the Bay Pearl series was made of natural pearls and diamonds from Harry Winston Diamond Corp. Usually, only royalty could afford this luxury, and these pieces were normally reserved for princesses. It was said that each set of jewelry, which included a diamond necklace, a ring, earrings, and a bracelet, was sold at a price of no less than thirty million dollars. Each item wouldnât be sold separately. There were only three such sets of such jewelry in the world, and they were all sold out.
As the crowd broke into discussion, all eyes were on the bracelet and earrings Becky was wearing.
All the people present were of high status, and they were used to luxurious lives. Thus, it was easy for them to see that the jewelry pieces that Becky was wearing were all made of diamonds and pearls, the quality of which could be observed under bright light.
The party was held in a big, brightly-lit banquet hall. Beckyâs earrings glittered under the lighting, the pearls looking pristine and smooth. Even if they were mere imitations, they were of good quality. The people in the crowd reasoned that her jewelry alone couldnât have cost less than a million dollars.
âBeckyâs wearing at least a million dollarsâ worth of jewelry, right? So why would she try to steal a measly bracelet?â
âExactly! Oh, and have you seen her dress before? It looks very similar to that of Toto, donât you think? Iâve never seen such a dress on the market. It mustâve been customized. I had something similar made in Toto on my birthday last year. It cost me over three hundred thousand dollars!â
âInteresting. Denise claimed that Becky wanted to steal her bracelet, but that doesnât make any sense!â
Denise wanted to defend herself, but when she heard those discussions, she felt as though she was slapped in the faceâagain.
Gritting her teeth, she stared in the direction Becky left.
She would have her revenge sooner or later!
