Chapter 1593 : How ironic to deceive oneself
A good-colored red-tipped crystal may not be cheaper than a ruby, but a red-tipped crystal is a red-tipped crystal, and it would be a lie to say ruby.
Shelly now better think about whether she was cheated or she cheated someone.
The necklace box was sitting on the coffee table, and Shelly glanced at Carrie in the direction of the kitchen as she opened it.
Carefully holding it in her hand, her heart went cold after just one look.
She had asked someone from The James family to buy this necklace, and it did cost a lot of money.
But if it was a ruby of this clarity, it would have cost her at least twice as much.
Shelly put the stones back as they were and closed the lid: “It’s hard to tell the difference between these two things with the naked eye, you can’t look at the inclusions alone.”
Blanca Roach raised her eyebrows slightly, but there was no point in talking about it.
When it was time for dinner, Jim Grant arrived.Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
Shelly couldn’t help but complain about him, “You’re so nice, I’m the first to arrive and you’re the last.”
“You don’t work every day, I’m busy, right?” Jim Grant rolled his eyes and didn’t give Shelly any face.
The way they get along as a couple, it always seems like they each carry a mouthful of resentment toward each other, which might be the enemy.
Shortly after Jim Grant arrived, Grandpa and Wilbert Grant came down, and when they saw so many people, Grandpa was happy: “They’re all here, what a day.”
“…” Carrie looked sheepishly at Blanca Roach and smiled as she helped him onto the couch, “Dad is joking again, it’s just that we’re all here to see you.”
Blanca Roach listened to grandpa’s words, today’s dinner together, not like his old man’s intention.
Just Shelly she said she was the first to come, Blanca Roach and combined with that so-called ruby necklace, instantly understood.
The thought of Carrie and Shelly joining forces and calling them here in the name of grandpa was ironic to Blanca Roach.
The mother-in-charge of The Grant family was bribed by a red-tipped crystal, Shelly, a jewelry design graduate, couldn’t distinguish between the two stones, and most hateful of all, their lies were full of holes and they planned to continue their deception.
“Husband, I heard that you and the owner of Bada Property have negotiated an investment?”
As the family settled down, Shelly brought up this matter.
Wilbert Grant heard the words also looked at Jim Grant, he is watching his nephew grow up, what can have the ability to have how much ability in mind, if he can pull in investment, also counted as a long way forward.
But nothing unexpected happened, Jim Grant hung his head: “Alas, no, busy.
“They said Empire Group would only talk to my brother.”
“Why? It’s not even about the people.” Shelly said.
“What do you know?” Jim Grant glared at her and smiled at Matthew Grant, “Brother, I didn’t mean anything by it, but I’m just frustrated that people don’t give me face.”
“Yeah.” Matthew Grant responded casually, which made it difficult to continue their conversation.
Shelly blinked at Carrie for help, and Carrie immediately understood, “Ah Jim, don’t be discouraged.”
“Auntie, it’s hard not to get discouraged when I’m in the shadow of my big brother.”
Jim Grant hung his head, all clear that the bottleneck he encountered was not the usual twists and turns.
“Then if it really doesn’t work out, you should stop being at Empire Group and come out and start another company, so they won’t dare to talk about Brother.”
Shelly began to come up with ideas, while Carrie, who was sitting on the side, was in agreement.
“Yeah, that’s not bad either haha.”
“Ahem.” Wilbert Grant coughed, now that Empire Group was no longer in charge of them, Carrie echoing Shelly like this would only make things difficult for Matthew Grant.
