Chapter 223

223 She was trapped

From the first time Isabella saw Joseph in the bar, she noticed that there was a square ruby ring on his left pinky. On that day, she saw rings in all colors and shapes in his cloakroom. She was quite curious why he never changed another ring. Isabella thought, ‘Does this ring mean anything?

A symbol of love?

Impossible, Angelina said that he never has a girlfriend, so how could it mean love?

Maybe it is a symbol of luck.

I heard that people who do business will believe in superstition.’

Isabella interrupted the clerk when thinking about this, “Sorry, I don’t want to buy this today. Is there any jewelry suitable for middle-aged ladies?”

The shop assistant stopped talking and looked at Isabella up and down. She frowned and said, “Please come with me.”

Isabella was led to the female jewelry area. She looked at the jewelry in the counter carefully and finally fixed her eyes on a jade green bracelet. “Could you show me this one please?”

The shop assistant glanced through Isabella again and finally noticed the Prada handbag in her hand, which belonged to Angelina. She smiled. “This bracelet costs 580,000 yuan. Be careful not to drop it.”

.....

“Alright!”

Isabella took the cushion on the counter to cover the bracelet and look at it carefully.

“Oh my. How brave you are! Although the bracelet is not very expensive, if the young lady in front of you drops it, she had no way to afford it!”

Isabella felt humiliated and saw three well-dressed girls after turning around.

They were Rosy’s best friends, who framed Isabella at her engagement party.

Dorothy, Sarah, and Sandra.

The shop assistant seemed to recognize these three girls and greeted them with a smile immediately, “Ladies, please come in. The new jewelry you want has arrived!”

Then she looked at Isabella.

People who often worked as employees in luxury goods shops were shrewd and clever, and they would recommend different levels of goods depending on the customer’s appearance.

As soon as Isabella entered, the shop assistant looked her up and down. Though Isabella was not well-dressed, she seemed to hold the latest model of Prada, and she looked at the ruby ring after entering the store, which all could tell that she had good taste.

So the shop assistant explained the meaning of the ruby ring to Isabella in detail. During the conversation, she saw that Isabella did not have any decorations on her hands. When she looked up again, there was no jewelry on Isabella’s neck or ears.

More importantly, Isabella was wearing a casual dress, which looked cheap at first glance.

At this moment, the girl said that she would buy the jewelry of a middle-aged woman rather than the ruby ring.

The shop assistant thought, ‘Well, maybe she is just a student who wants to buy a gift for his mother. I can’t get any benefits, so I’ll treat her casually.

I didn’t expect that she will be interested in a bracelet worth 580,000.’

The shop assistant looked at the Prada handbag in the girl’s hand again and felt that it should be real. “Maybe she is low-key,” the shop assistant thought. She reminded Isabella to be careful thousands of times before she took out the bracelet.

But Isabella was humiliated by those three girls.

The shop assistant thought, “How strange. She owns the latest Prada handbag but she couldn’t afford the bracelet. That’s ridiculous.”

Thus, this shrewd sales lady no longer concealed the disdain in her heart and said directly, “I’m sorry, lady. If you can’t afford the price of this bracelet, you should return it to me. If this is broken, I’m afraid both of us will get into trouble!”

Isabella was stunned as he looked at the shop assistant who changed her attitude so quickly.

But she calmed herself down quickly.

Since she was young, Rosy and her three friends had bullied and humiliated her thousands of times!

???????????????? ???????????????????????????? ???????????????????????? ???????????????????? ???????? ????????????????????-????????????.????????????

When she was in elementary school, they framed her for stealing. When she was in middle school, they read the “love letter” she gave to the school idol Lukas in public. In high school, they asked a gang of youth to block her after school and tear her skirt. Things might be worse if Jane and Lukas didn’t come to save her.

It was all because she was the child of the home wrecker, and her mother married Rosy’s father...

She was four years younger than Rosy, and Rosy had a few friends to support her. Therefore, every time there was a conflict, Isabella would undoubtedly be the loser. Even if Isabella won, Rosy would ask Carl to help her...

Therefore, Isabella had born in her mind that she’d better stay away from them since she was young.

Isabella murmured in her mind, “Then I’ll just escape from you.”

So she put down the bracelet. “Never mind, I’ll just go...”

Before she finished her words, Sarah, who was next to her, suddenly ran over. The bracelet in Isabella’s hand flew out and fell to the ground.

And it was broken.

Along with the screams of the shop assistants, the beautiful jade bracelet was split into two pieces, and Isabella’s heart seemed to be broken, too.

She thought, ‘580,000...

The bracelet I broke is worth 580,000...I can’t afford it at all.’

“She pushed me!”

“You saw it, she pushed me!” Isabella shouted and pulled the shop assistant.

“Are you telling a joke?”

Sarah covered her pink lips and laughed, “The bracelet was in your hand. Don’t frame me!”

Her twin sister Sandra agreed immediately, “That’s right, that bracelet flew out from your hand. How could you blame my sister!”

“If you didn’t push me, how could it fly out?”

“Hey! Stop arguing!” Dorothy uttered as she pressed her fingers against the counter, “The bracelet can’t be fixed up, right?”

“Yes, it becomes worthless now!” The shop assistant held the bracelet and looked upset.

“The bracelet was broken by that girl. You saw it, right? Then hurry up and deal with it,” Dorothy glanced at Isabella, “ask her to pay for the compensation or send her into jail. Anyway, we can’t wait to go shopping!”

The shop assistant said to Isabella immediately, “Lady, the price of this bracelet you just broke is 580,000. Would you like to swipe the card or...”

“I will never give you 580,000!”

Dorothy immediately retorted, “Because you can’t afford it, right?”

Isabella looked at those three girls and she knew she couldn’t escape from this issue. She turned to the shop assistant and said, “I suppose your shop has surveillance cameras, right? I want to check the surveillance records! Even if I have to pay, I will only take half of the responsibility!”
