章節 136: Chapter 135 Days to the wedding 16
We walked across the different jeweries placed at the counter, they were all so beautiful and it was hard to choose any. "So Avery....!" "Why talking to me, we usually don't talk!" She said cutting my words as she walked further leaving me behind. I rolled my eyes at her action, she should be happy I needed something from her. Why would I waste my time talking to Avery?
Alex's family are just so impossible. "It doesn't mean we can't talk now!" "So what do we have to talk about? Listen... Hazel, I know you're trying so hard to get aquainted with me b....!"
"That's not it!" I had to stop her. "Just why are you guys acting st......?" "I think the jewelry on this counter would suit you perfectly!" Francois said. We almost forgot our personal shopper came with us for a minute then. His words distracted us from our conversation and we went ahead to see the jewelries he talked about.
I know Avery doesn't dislike me much, she's just not the type that gets aquainted to people especially strangers easily. Besides everyone's not meant to like you. "I think this one would suit you better Mrs Wilson!" The sales associate helped us bring the necklace out. For some reason I wished Carie was here, If she was then my shopping would never be boring.
"You can give that to Hazel, cheap things look good on cheap people!" She said sternly as she walked in further. I had to give a reassuring smile to the men who stared at me awkwardly. I should have known not to get close to her in the first place, I decided to shop myself from now on.
Mother and grandma got out of the room they got into with Aunt Nina behind them. The smiles on their face was already evident enough that they had a great time with her. "Have you decided on any jewery yet dear?" Mother held my shoulder tenderly as she asked. "No!" I said with a slight smile.
"Nina let's get your finest jewelry, as stated, my daughter doesn't like anything here!" Mother said immediately. "Is that so, I knew she had good taste for good things!" Nina said with a smile and I smiled back noticing the glare from Grandma. I ignored her, making a deal with them not to taunt or insult me, is making them build some kind of grudge towards me which I think is more dangerous than speaking up.
We followed Nina into the executive office to relax while the diamond is being presented to us, Francois followed suit too. I wonder why we have to get personal shopper when we can just shop things for ourselves. The jewelries were presented to us, and we picked the ones we liked.
Since I got married to Alex, I've had really expensive jewelries worth more than two billion dollars. Which I didn't think was possible. Each person's brought out their card to pay, but when I brought out the black card Alex gave me, they placed their cards back in their purse quickly.
"My daughter in-law would be more than delighted to pay our bills!" Grandma said with a smile. This was the first time I was seeing her smile like this and somewhere within I was happy.
Her smile made me accept to her request without thinking twice. Carrie had told me before that Alex cares less about his bank status and that I could shop however I wanted to. With that thought, I quickly gave Aunt Nina the black card and she just swiped it into the machine without it being denied.
Curiosity peeked through me and I was forced to ask how much each necklace was worth. "Aunt Nina, please how much are each necklace worth?" I asked nonchalantly with an expectation of hearing from a hundred and fifty million - two hundred million. But what I heard paralyzed me.
"Each are worth 500 - 600 million dollars, so approximately it should be 2 - 2.5billion dollars!" She said casually and I gulped. The last time Carrie said Alex wouldn't notice was 50 million, this time it's in billions. I almost had a heart attack right there.
"If the money is too much for my granddaughter I could just pay!" Grandma's words were not helping at all. I just fell into her trap without thinking about it. What do I do if Alex finds out about this? What if he increases my debt how do I pay two billion? I was scared and anxious about his reaction.
