Capítulo 33: Chapter 22 Family Dinner 3
"This is the Akoya cultured pearl 6.5_7.5mm, silver, length 50cm!" he kept the first necklace on the table. "It's worth $6,800!" He added. "Next!" Tom said, "this is another Akoya cultured pearl, 6.5_5.7mm, colour silver, length 50cm. And it is worth $8,200!" Raymond brought another one out.
I loved all the pearls he brought out but Carie and Tom we're not satisfied by what they saw. I don't know if they wanted to buy the entire New York before they become satisfied. "Don't you have anything else? Is this all you've got?" Carie asked. "Raymond get the finest pearl in the store!" Berverly ordered with a smile.
In few minutes Raymond walked out with six other employees, they were holding a tray covered with black rags in their hands. "This is our newest product, shipped from Japan few weeks ago!" A one of the employees opened the first tray. It's the Mikimoto's twelveth edition worth $11.5 million!" She said.
I gulped at her words as a cold sweat went down my back. I took a glance at Carie whose expression never changed. Is she deaf or did she not here the amount they just called. "The next!" I heard Carie say, at this point I felt like I was paralyzed. What is Alex going to do to me? Should I leave this shop?, But if I do wouldn't it be embarrassing?.
Wouldn't it have been better if we picked the first set? Different questions ran through my head all at once. I could already feel my body vibrating. "Well this one is worth €25million!" Berv said with a smile as she looked at my facial expression. The more Carie asked for more the higher the prices get, I felt like dieing right now, how do I pay Alex this amount of money back?.
________________
After everything we finally got the jewelry with nothing less than €50million, for I and Carie. We walked back into the car and the chauffeur drove off. "Don't you think it's a bit to much?" I said to carie. "What?" She asked "The jeweries?" I said perturbed. "That's not a problem, you just don't know how rich your husband is do you?" She smiled.
"Alex wears gross diamonds, how much do you think they are worth?" She asked. "Hmm!" I was totally a novice when it came to this stuff's. "They're worth billions of dollars, so don't get scared he would not notice at all!" Even if Carie had encouraged me not to be scared, I was still very perturbed about this. She doesn't stay with Alex in the same room, I do. I know what that heartless man is capable of, I mean if he could lock me up for a week in a room what else could he not do.
We got to another store, this time it was a boutique for clothes and shoes, the clothes there were really expensive, but I still bought them anyway. Who wouldn't when you have a friend who insist on making your life a living hell.
