When Love Comes Late -
Chapter 1010
Before she could finish her words, Leslie excitedly cut in, “Oh, Stella, you’re so generous! When do we leave?”
“Actually, my husband issued the invitations a few days ago.
If you received one, you’re more than welcome to join,” Stella said calmly.
“It’s a significant event for us.
We’ve been very selective with the invitations.
I hope you understand.
”
Stella’s words peeled away Leslie’s facade of friendliness, leaving her visibly embarrassed and irritated.
As Leslie reached out, possibly to retort, there was a sudden sound of something breaking.
The bracelet she was wearing slipped off her wrist and hit the floor, the diamond coming loose and scattering.
The expensive bracelet had fallen to the floor because it wasn’t properly fastened.
The sudden accident left Leslie flustered and at a loss for words.
Her stunned reaction gave Miley the perfect opportunity to mock her.
“Wow, you must be incredibly wealthy to just toss around such a pricey bracelet.
How lavish!”
Leslie’s face turned pale as she stumbled over her words.
“No… I didn’t mean to…”
Miley pressed on, not letting up, “What are you trying to say? Are you trying to deny it?”
The saleslady, alerted by the commotion, hurried over.
Upon seeing the damaged bracelet, her expression turned to one of concern.
“This is quite serious.
”
“You should settle the compensation with the store,” Miley suggested, feigning helpfulness.
The saleslady, maintaining her professionalism, offered, “Miss, would you like to pay for the damages by card? We offer a free repair for the diamond at our shop.
”
Though unspoken, it was clear that the bracelet wouldn’t be the same after repair.
Overwhelmed with frustration and embarrassment, Leslie trembled with anger.
Stella, disinterested in the unfolding drama, turned her attention to another sales assistant.
“Please wrap up the jewelry I’ve selected.
”
She then motioned for Miley to leave with her.
“Why leave so soon?” Miley protested, intrigued by the scene.
“Remember how conceited she was earlier? It’s not often we get to see her in such a predicament.
Let’s wait a bit.
