"A VIP?" Dakota mocked. "Someone like her? Just tell me how much this emerald costs."

The old shop manager replied, "This emerald belongs to Ms. Jenkins, and it's not for sale. Even if she didn't want it, we wouldn't sell it." "Running a business but refusing to sell?" Dakota shot back. "Well, I insist on buying it today. Is Luxe Luster going to sell it to me or not?" Isabelle picked up her things and prepared to leave.

She told Dakota, "Luxe Luster has no right to sell it because this emerald was mine to begin with."

"By the way, this shop used to be mine, too."

A while ago, she returned the shop to the owner.

The old shop manager and the shopkeeper exchanged glances, feeling both puzzled and deeply respectful.

None of the VIP guests on the list were extraordinary people.

Dakota laughed as if she'd heard a great joke. She taunted, "Are you saying this shop is yours? Aren't you bold enough to claim that? Did you hear what she just said?" The old shop manager ignored Dakota.

"Tell your boss to blacklist her. Since she increased the price of that emerald by 750 thousand, make sure she pays for it," Isabelle said. Not wanting to waste time, she walked out of the shop. The old shop manager responded, "Understood, have a good day."

Dakota shouted at the back and said, "Who do you think you are? What

right do you have?"

The old shop manager calmly replied, "She has that right."

He turned to the shopkeeper and instructed, "Help the customer pack the emerald."

He didn't even address Dakota respectfully.

Dakota barked, "You dare to offend my family? Luxe Luster must be looking to close down."

The old shop manager said with a smile, "I'm afraid your family doesn't have the power to shut us down."

"How dare you!"

Dakota's mother pulled her aside and whispered, "The owner of Luxe Luster is very mysterious and has significant backing. Don't offend him.”

He turned back to the guests with a friendly smile and greeted them, "Mr. Sullivan, long time no see. I'm glad you could make it.

"Just your presence is enough; there is no need for gifts."

"Hello, Mr. Magnus," greeted Bella, who followed her father closely.

Magnus said with a smile, "Hello, how have your grades been lately?"

Bella grumbled, "Why do you and my dad always ask about my grades. instead of my health or happiness?"

Magnus chuckled and asked, "So, are you happy?"

Bella grinned. "It's your birthday today; of course I'm happy."

Magnus said, "Next time, don't bet with others so carelessly."

Bella struggled with her response.

Maverik affectionately patted his daughter's head and said, "Go replace your sister and your friends. I saw the Holmes kid at the entrance. I'll chat with Principal Burton." "Okay," Bella thought to herself. I'm not going to hang out with that annoying Danny.

She had just walked a few steps when she saw that James had arrived. Belle was ready to greet him.

James asked Magnus, "Grandpa, did you invite Isabella?"

Magnus patted James's arm and whispered, "You have to carry yourself properly. Make sure you seize the opportunity and treat Isabella well."

When James mentioned Isabella, Bella's smile faded. She turned away with a huff.

dispirited as his grandfather pulled him out of the car.

With hands in his pockets, Danny suddenly spotted a top-tier black sports car at the end of a line of luxury cars.

His legs moved on their own towards the car.

"Fuck! Is this for real? A Koenigsegg One:1?" Danny exclaimed.

Danny moved close to the car and almost pressed his face against it. He circled the car in awe and almost drooled.

Kennedy walked briskly with his cane, catching up with him. He scolded, "Quit with those swear words, you rascal! Watch your language! Always spouting nonsense. Someday you'll end up with a rotten mouth."

Kennedy gave Danny a couple of swift whacks on the legs.

Danny was used to this. He barely felt the pain. His eyes were glued to the car, itching to climb on it.

"Grandpa, this is the car I told you about-the one you didn't get me last time!" He looked around. "Whose car is this? This is awesome!"

Kennedy looked at his grandson and fumed. "All you care about is cars! Can't you be more like your sister and give me some peace? Get inside. now, or I'll throw you under this car."
