Chapter 249 Ocean

"Oh, there's nothing wrong with that.” The store clerk was intrigued by Janet's question. Perhapsrealizing that she had been a little unkind now looking at Janet's ring, she waved her hands infarewell and smiled. “I'm really sorry for looking at her ring now, ma'am. I should not have done it.I've only seen pictures of this ring before. It's the first time I've seen him in real life. It's reallyfascinating.”

Janet frowned. She couldn't understand what the store clerk was saying:

“This is just a fake blue diamond ring. Why is she so curious about this? she imagined.

Noticing the confusion on Janet's face, the store clerk asked hesitantly, “Don’t you know the originof that ring, ma'am?”

Janet looked at Ethan subconsciously. It was he who gave her the ring. She didn't think there wasany interesting backstory about a

fake ring.

So she shook her head and said, “I don't.”

Suddenly, Ethan pretended to cough.

“Ethan, are you okay? Does your throat hurt?” Janet was worried about him, so she patted him onthe back and handed him a glass of water. “Why are you suddenly coughing?” she asked. “He wasfine now,’ she thought.

The store clerk noticed that Ethan had been coughing since she started talking. She wanted toplease him, so she said, "We have some cough medicine in the store. Want some, sir?

Ethan waved his hand, picked up the glass of water from the table and took a sip.

He was winking at the store clerk and even faked several coughs, but she still didn't seem to get hishint.

The woman wasn't Ethan's employee, so she probably couldn't take hints from him.

Also, Ethan couldn't say anything to her in front of Janet, so he was getting more and more anxiousThe store clerk took one look at Janet's ring again and adjusted her tone. “Her blue diamond ring iscalled “Ocean’. It is the most expensive and famous jewel in the history of our brand. It has anextensive history and high value. I heard someone bought it at a high price a long time ago. I neverimagined that I would see the owner of the ring here today. Since you have it, you must be a veryimportant customer,” the store clerk explained respectfully. Hearing this, Janet was stunned. After amoment's hesitation, she shyly asked, “Are you sure this isn't just a hoax?"

She couldn't believe the blue diamond on her ring was the real “Ocean” the store clerk had just toldher about. "How could Ethan pay the real? They were poor!’ she thought to herself.

Also, Janet had seen several fakes that Ethan had received from his friends. Because of thedevelopment of counterfeiting technology, it was difficult to tell that they were fakes.

But to his surprise, the store clerk shook her head and smiled. “Lady, you must be kidding. I havebeen in this job for years and I know the most famous product of our brand very well. I'm more thansure your ring is the real deal. If you don't believe me, go ahead and fine a professional jewelryappraiser to check this for you.” After hearing the explanation, Janet was stunned. The store clerkseemed so sure the blue diamond in her ring was real. Thinking about Ethan's strange behavior; hisstrange wink and sudden cough; his eyes widened in shock. She turned her head to look at Ethan asa mountain of questions piled up in her head. «
