Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest)
Chapter 1986

After that, the sales assistant directly shifted her gaze back to her phone.

This ring cost one million.

Who in this small city could afford it?

Moreover, Georgie Clementine was dressed casually that day. She didn't look like she could possibly afford the ring.

Georgie instantly felt appalled by the staff's attitude, knowing exactly what she was thinking.

She couldn't be bothered to argue with someone like this, so she turned around and walked up to another jewelry store, browsing casually.

The sales assistant at this store smiled at her. "Are you looking for a ring?"

"I'm only casually browsing," Georgie said while she perused over the display area.

The pieces that came into sight were relatively cheaper, but the designs also seemed ordinary to Georgie.

Nothing stood out to her.

When the sales assistant from the previous store heard what she said, she immediately rolled her eyes at Georgie.

She then looked at the sales assistant in front of Georgie and mouthed the words 'a poor woman who only wants to look'. Georgie hadn't noticed this, but the sales assistant in front of her did. She smiled and began recommending accessories to her. "Miss, I think this design suits you very well. Have a look," the girl suggested, pointing at a two-carat diamond ring with a clean design.

It had very good craftsmanship, despite the plain design.

Georgie shook her head and continued browsing until her gaze unintentionally landed on a necklace that cost 200,000.

The simple necklace hung around the neck of a black mannequin.

The necklace had a straightforward platinum chain and a crown-shaped diamond pendant.

There were three approximately two-carat diamonds on the three pointy sections of the crown, while the rest of the necklace had smaller pieces of diamonds embedded as embellishments.

With excellent craftsmanship, the necklace glistened brightly.

It would be nice to wear it now and then.

Georgie casually pointed at the necklace. "I'd like to have a closer look, please."

The sales assistant glanced inquisitively at her before retrieving the necklace for a closer inspection.

When the previous sales assistant from the other shop saw this, she discreetly rolled her eyes at Georgie again.

'Something's wrong with this

woman. She clearly can't afford it, but she still wants to look at it,' she thought, assuming that this was a classic case of someone who only tried on goods but could never afford to buy them.

Soon, the sales assistant in front of Georgie put on a pair of silk gloves and carefully retrieved the necklace before helping to put it around her neck.

Georgie smiled and looked at her reflection in the mirror.

The necklace's length was just right where the crown rested directly above her collar bones, glistening brightly as she wore it.

"I'll take this one," Georgie announced, glancing at the staff, who was visibly shocked to hear that.

She didn't expect her to buy the most expensive necklace in the store so decisively.

This necklace had been on display for a year, but nobody ever bought it.

Honestly, the sales assistant was only doing her job by serving Georgie.
