Chapter 7
Phoebe''s face immediately changed. She was so angry that she kept scolding Tom in her heart. If it
weren''t for the presence of outsiders, she really wanted to give Tom a big p!
"Look, even your husband said that, so don''t refuse. Let''s go and buy some jewelry. I saw a diamond
ne a while ago, and I love it. It''s not expensive, just a hundred thousand dors." Janeughed
happily.
Tom had long wanted to buy jewelry for Phoebe. They had been married for four years, but he had
never given Phoebe a fancy gift. Now that he was rich and had this opportunity, he would not let it go.
Moreover, he was also hoping to show his sincerity and save the marriage.
Phoebe was about to cry, but Jane was too enthusiastic. She couldn''t get rid of Jane at all. She had to
follow her into the jewelry store and sign. Tom was really a disaster. He still disgraced him even before
their divorce.
After Tom caught up with her, Phoebe fiercely stomped on Tom''s shoes. "Look at what you''ve done!
Can''t you let me off one time?"
Phoebe was wearing high heels, so Tom felt so painful that he bared his teeth and almost jumped up.
"Phoebe, don''t worry. I won''t embarrass you this time."
"Stop bragging." Phoebe didn''t believe him and looked disgusted.
Jane took Asher''s hand and strutted in. She said to the salesman, "Hey, do you still have the discount
you told me aboutst time?"
The salesperson said, "Yes. Two legal couples buy the same jewelry, and they can enjoy a 30%
discount. Which jewelry do you like?"
Jane smiled meaningfully and said to Phoebe, "Phoebe, I see that you are not wearing any jewelry, not
even a diamond ring. You should choose first. We are ssmates, and I''ll buy whatever you choose so
that you can save a lot of money. Is that OK? Am I kind or what?"
"To be honest, Jane, business has been bad recently, so I can''t afford such expensive jewelry," Phoebe
said this, feeling so embarrassed. The simple sentence had cost her all her strength! She was proud. It
was very difficult for her to say such a thing.
Jane burst outughing. "Oh, Phoebe, stop it. Everyone in our ss knew you were rich. You rode in a
luxurious car to school every day. If you were poor, we, the real poor people, would have no money to
eat. After all these years, your family business must be better, right?"
Every word she said pierced Phoebe''s heart like a needle, making her face gradually pale.
Asher chimed in and said, "Hey, yes. Besides, isn''t your husband rich? How can he not afford the
jewelry worth only a hundred thousand dors? Honey, how much is that diamond ne you like?"
Jane answered, "The original price is 219,800 dors and less than 170,000 dors at a discount."
"Less than 170,000 dors. That''s a bargain, actually." Asherughed.
The salespeople in the shop saw the chance of a big business and came over to tter them.
Phoebe felt so ashamed that she wished she could find a hole in the ground to hide. She had never
been so embarrassed since she was a child!
At this moment, a loud voice sounded, "170,000 dors, uh? It''s not expensive."
Everyone looked back to see who was speaking with such an arrogant tone.
It was Tom. With a smile on his face, he held Phoebe''s hand and said, "Honey, you forgot that I bought
a stock a while ago. It has risen to the limit. I made a few million this time, enough to buy dozens of
diamond nes."
Phoebe was stunned. When did Tom learn to buy stocks? Soon she realized that Tom was bragging.
Jane and Asher also didn''t believe it and felt he was pretending.
"Wow, you earned a few million. It''s amazing! Then just buy the most expensive ne!" Jane said
with a fake smile.
"No..." Phoebe hurriedly exined, but Jane didn''t give her a chance and said directly to the
salesperson, "What''s the most expensive jewelry here?"
The salesperson was even more respectful. "Madam, you are lucky. We just received a limited edition
diamond ne from the headquarters yesterday. It was designed by a famous jewelry master and
used a total of 999 diamonds, representing forever, so it was named ''Eternal Heart.''"
"Eternal Heart!" Jane eximed. "Is it the one that went viral online a while ago?"
"Yes." The salesperson looked proud. "This is a limited edition. There are only nine of them in the
world, and they are very precious. Our store only managed to get two because the boss and the
jewelry master her along well."
Jane''s eyes lit up, and she said quickly, "Take it out and show it to me."
Soon, the salesperson carefully took out two exquisite boxes. It was obvious that everyone around
them held their breath and looked forward to it.
Even Phoebe''s eyes were drawn to it. A while ago, she saw this online. It was so beautiful that she had

liked it back then.
She didn''t expect to have the chance to see the Eternal Heart with her own eyes today. She was
extremely intrigued.
When the salesperson opened the box, the Eternal Heart in it immediately appeared. It was dazzling
and beautiful. Every diamond seemed to be given life. From different angles, it showed a different
luster.
Jane came back to her senses and said to Tom, "So? Can you afford it?"
Tom didn''t answer her but asked Phoebe, "Phoebe, what do you think of it? Do you like it?"
Phoebe was still immersed in the beauty of the Eternal Heart and did note back to her senses.
She nodded hard and said, "I like it!"
Tom smiled and said, "Okay, we will take it."
Then he asked the salesperson to pack it.
The salesperson asked tentatively, "Sir, are you sure? This is a limited edition, and it is currently sold
for 2,388,800..."
Hearing the price, the customers around them eximed. A ne costs more than two million
dors. It was impossible for them to afford it. It was worth an apartment in the city center!
Tom nodded and said, "Sure, pack it up."
Suddenly, Tom thought of something and said meaningfully, "Is the Eternal Heart included in that
discount service?"
The salesman nodded in agreement.
Tom said to Jane, "Phoebe and I will buy the Eternal Heart. After you make a decision, we can pay the
bill together."
Jane and Asher''s faces turned grim. They didn''t have such arge sum of money now!
Tom said again, "Asher, Jane, you can afford this, right?"
Jane said excitedly, "Bullshit! I can''t afford it?! My husband''spany earns millions a year. It''s easy to
buy jewelry worth two million dors. On the other hand, you are all dressed in cheap clothes and can''t
even find a job. Do you really have two million dors? I don''t think you have even twenty thousand
dors!"
Anyone who bought two jewelry pieces would enjoy 30% off, which was about two million dors.
Tom would take her words seriously. He smiled and said, "I have two million, actually."
"Liar. Just pay for it, and we''ll see!" Jane''s face was full of disdain. She was sure Tom was poor.
Tom said directly to the salesperson, "Can I use a card here?"
The salesperson smiled sweetly. "Yes. But since you want to enjoy a 30% discount, you have to pay
together."
"I''m OK with it." Tom looked at Jane. "What about you? Pay the bill together?"
Asher and Jane looked at each other and thought that Tom must be bluffing. Asher said disdainfully,
"Let''s go. Do you think I am afraid?"
Then they took out their bank cards together and went to the register. Then, people heard a payment
was sessful, but the other was denied.
Asher was stunned. Sessful payment? Why? There were only tens of thousands of dors in his
ount. Could it be that the customer had transferred the money in advance? This was not good. He
needed this money to manage thepany. If he used it to buy the diamond ne, he would suffer
huge losses!
So he said in a panic, "Why is the deal made? Return the money. It''s the wrong bank card..."
