Chapter 770
"I like this, babe! Can I get it?" Cecilia asked.
"Ok course. You’re going to wear this on our wedding day. It's about 50 million bucks, and it’s all worth
it so long as you like it. Just buy!"
Kelly grinned.
"Oh, this necklace is so pretty. It's a little expensive. About 100 million bucks!"
Soon enough, Cecilia had her eyes set upon a gorgeous necklace. It was expensive, even compared to
the other items in the shop.
"Hah. It’s not expensive at all. It's nothing. This necklace looks good. You'll definitely b e the brightest
star on the wedding day while wearing this!"
Kelly laughed.
After a while, they chose quite a few pieces of jewelry. The bill totaled to over 300 million bucks.
They paid for the jewelry, then they noticed that Fane still had not bought anything. Cecilia smiled.
"What's wrong? You're too shy to choose anything? Are you scared that we’ll laugh at you, saying that
it’s too cheap? Didn't you just win 900 million bucks from my man here? You should have quite a bit of
money on you now. Furthermore, you have your own money, so you should have about 2 billion : n
total. Yet you don’t dare to buy anything too expensive?"
Kelly went along with her and said, "Heh, don't forget, my dear Cecilia, that he just boasted about
throwing a birthday party that would rock the entire city. If he buys all this and spends hundreds of
millions, h e won't have much left. He's spending a lot of money already—reserving the hotel, stuff like
that. That's why he's just buying all these jewelry as a mere token!"
Cecilia pretended a look of realization. "Oh, that's right! I almost forgot. He won't even b e able to afford
the banquet if he isn't careful with his money. Or he won't be able to afford a lavish meal. He'll be a truly
laughing stock then!"
She paused here before continuing leisurely, "Besides, no one pays that much attention to jewelry. So
it's enough to simply buy something that's worth ten or twenty thousand!"
“That’s right. Let's go, Cecilia. He'll be too embarrassed to pick something out if we linger here. Hah.
Let’s quickly go and get out of his hair. We'll let this poor son-inlaw choose some cheap stuff for his
wife!”
Young Master Gold laughed. He came before Fane, looked down upon Fane with his head held high,
before sauntering out of the store, along with Cecilia.
After they left, Fane only noticed that the saleswoman who had been ready to bring out a few items for
him was giving him a strange look.
"So you're that son-in-law!"
She gave a bitter smile. "It's all right so long as you mean it. No need to compare yourself to those
people!”
He gave a small smile when heard this. " Don’t worry. I'm not going to compare myself to trash like
them. After all, a family like the Gold family has no right to compare themselves to me!"
"Heh. You talk big. But why don't you actually pick something out?”
The saleswoman who had sold Cecilia her jewelry gave a cold smile from the side. " They don't have
the right to compare themselves to you? It sounds as though you're richer than them. Then buy
something! I want to see what you buy!”
Fane could not be bothered with her. He turned toward the first saleswoman. "I’m going to buy the
Heart of the Abyss because my wife likes it—at least, I trust that she will like it. Besides, she's the only
woman who's beautiful enough to wear it!”
The saleswoman was speechless. She gave a wry smile. "Sir, that friend of yours said that you only
have two billion bucks on you. The Heart of the Abyss is nine billion, not 900 million! You've verified
that fact for yourself just now. More importantly, we have no intention of selling it!"novelbin
"Nine billion?"
Fane furrowed his brows. He thought about it for a while before speaking: "How about this? I'll pay 20
billion! I thought that it was worth 900 million, that's why I offered 2 billion. I never thought that I'd miss
a zero there. Then allow me to add a zero to my offer as well. I'll buy it from you for 20 billion!"
"20 billion!"
