Chapter 4423

Author: Lord Leaf
After saying that, she hung up the phone, stepped in front of Elaine, and smiled as she said, “Madam, come. Let me help you try it on.”

Elaine nodded and put on the necklace with the salesgirl’s help. After that, she kept looking in the mirror.

The price-performance ratio of the jewelry from this big brand was really thin. The 18K gold chain was not worth a lot of money, and the pendant made of broken diamonds also did not cost much. When it was put together, it was estimated that a fraction of the price was already enough to cover it.

However, what Elaine valued was not the price-performance ratio, but the reputation-to-price ratio.

The so-called price-performance ratio was the ratio between product performance and price. For the same price, the better the performance would naturally be better.

As for the reputation-to-price ratio, it was the ratio between the reputation and the price of the product. At the same price, the higher the reputation, the more important it was. Even i

    The salesgirl’s sentence that stated that Elaine was the top amongst the noblewomen overwhelmed Elaine immediately.She felt that the salesgirl’s words had a kind of chemical energy which could produce a large amount of dopamine that would rush straight to her head through a chemical reaction with her eardrum. Simply put, it made her lose her sense. This feeling was like a young man who had just learned to smoke and had grabbed his uncle’s dry tobacco pouch and taken a big puff of it.It not only went up to his head, but it also made him feel a little dizzy.Elaine was so happy that she could not even close her mouth. She looked at the salesgirl, and the more Elaine looked at her, the more she liked her. Hannah was indeed very good at patronizing her, and they had obviously been sisters-in-law for decades. Hannah could also praise her whenever she wanted to.However, if Elaine were to really compare the salesgirl in front of her with Hannah, Hannah would definitely lose out.

    However, when Elaine thought of how the salesgirl had already set up the atmosphere, wouldn’t she be unable to live up to the title as the ‘top amongst the noblewomen’ if she were to say that she could not afford it? Just as Elaine was feeling uneasy, the salesgirl placed the treasure of the store in front of her.Elaine looked down at the price tag and suddenly exclaimed, “Oh, my God! Seven, eight, eight, eight... Seven, followed by six eights with no decimal points... This is f*cking 7.88 million dollars!”The salesgirl in front of her took the necklace out, looked at Elaine, and then looked at the necklace before she shook her head and said, “Madam, I suddenly feel that this necklace is somewhat dull in front of you.”Elaine was about to cry.‘A necklace that is nearly eight million dollars also looks somewhat dull in front of an old lady like me?! Do you think that I’m as bright as the sun?!’Hannah, who was behind her, was also shocked and blurted out, “This necklace is too

    Hannah, who was aside, had already exclaimed in shock before Elaine responded. She blurted out, “I remember that there have never been any discounts in your brand before. How can it suddenly be eighty thousand dollars cheaper?!”The salesgirl smiled and said, “Madam, you’re right. We never offer discounts in our store. Today is the only exception, and it is only for today!”Elaine was also moved.A brand that had never given any discount was now directly cheaper by eighty thousand dollars. This was a huge bargain!As the saying goes, it would be stupid if she did not take advantage of a bargain.If she did not buy this necklace, she would wake up with regrets at night. So, she quietly turned on her cell phone and glanced at her account balance in her bank app. She had three hundred and sixty-two thousand dollars left in her bank account.In the few days that Charlie and Claire were gone, not only did she spend eighty thousand dollars in the beauty salon for a super VIP member

    The salesgirl said, “The cashback is 20%. Didn’t you buy this necklace for three hundred and sixty thousand dollars? We will refund 20% of the money to you after the transaction, which is seventy-two thousand dollars.”“Oh, my God...” Elaine blurted out, “Wouldn’t that mean that I would be able to buy this necklace, that is worth more than four hundred and eighty thousand dollars, for less than three hundred thousand dollars after I participate in these various activities?!”“Yes!” The salesgirl held the calculator for a while and said, “The actual price will be only two hundred and eighty-eight thousand dollars, which is two hundred thousand dollars cheaper!”Elaine was extremely happy. Two hundred thousand dollars cheaper! Wasn’t this a great bargain for nothing?!Just as Elaine was feeling excited, the salesgirl said, “By the way, you can come to the store to participate in the lottery at about 1.00 pm or 2.00 pm after you buy the necklace. The lottery is free, and the highest

    Even though she had no tears, Elaine really felt like crying when she heard this.However, in order to maintain her status as the top amongst the noblewomen, she could only clench her teeth and bear with it.After all, she thought to herself, ‘I cannot argue with this salesgirl for the arrival time of the seventy thousand dollars. After all, she was quite good to me and gave me so many discounts...’‘What’s more, it’s not that they are not going to return the seventy thousand dollars back to me. It’s just the normal procedure, so how can I have a fallout with them over this? Wouldn’t it be a little too unreasonable of me, then?’As Elaine thought of this, she could not help but sigh as she thought to herself, ‘The main thing is that I only have more than two thousand dollars in my bank card now, and it will only be enough to last me for a few days...’After making up her mind, Elaine did not continue talking about this issue. Instead, she pretended to laugh and casually said to th

    Elaine kept thinking about the lottery after she was done eating.She did not expect to win the 1.2 million grand prize. She would be satisfied as long as she could win any prize at all.After eating, Elaine and Hannah returned to Harbour City again.At this time, the manager of the jewelry store had already received the lottery tickets that Jasmine had sent over.This batch of lottery tickets had been made by a printing house working overtime this morning, and the lottery tickets still smelled strongly of ink. When Elaine walked into the store with Hannah, the salesgirl from the morning hurriedly rushed over to greet her as she smiled and said, “Madam, you’re here! Please come with me to our store manager’s office!”As she spoke, she lowered her voice deliberately and said to Elaine, “Madam, our lottery today is only limited to high-end customers like you. Ordinary customers in the store are not entitled to it, so let’s keep a low profile and not let them find out about it.”E

    Elaine’s heart was beating rapidly when she saw the words ‘grand prize’.After Hannah heard what Elaine said, she hurriedly leaned forward and looked down.As soon as she looked, she could clearly see the words ‘grand prize’ written clearly on the prize redemption area.At this moment, Hannah felt so depressed that she really felt like dying.‘I really cannot understand why that d*mned b*tch, Elaine, could have such f*cking good luck?!’‘She drew the grand prize as soon as she reached out her hand! Is she still a f*cking human being?’‘Seeing that d*mned b*tch, Elaine, winning 1.2 million dollars makes me feel even more uncomfortable than if I were to lose 1.2 million dollars myself!’Elaine was already rejoicing at this time, and she hurriedly asked the store manager, “What exactly is the grand prize?”The store manager hurriedly said, “Go ahead and scratch the prize! The prize is written below, but you won’t know what it is until you scratch it off.”Elaine muttered, “It’d b

    After that, he reminded her, “By the way, Madam, I will let you know when our finance department can pay your cashback to you.”The store manager’s words undoubtedly reminded Elaine.He made Elaine realize that she was out of money!‘I only have more than two thousand dollars left now. If I’m going to use this amount of money to live through the remaining half a month, I will only be able to scrimp on food and clothing. I can only buy groceries and cook at home every day or eat cheap takeouts at home...’‘Besides that, even if I were to drive the Rolls-Royce out every day for a leisurely stroll, I’m afraid that I might not be able to fill up gasoline for the car...’‘In contrast, if I were to go to the United States at this time, I can go and join my daughter-in-law and son-in-law! I can drink and eat good food with Charlie, and I can also have a good time in the United States! Wouldn’t that be better than eating soup in Thompson First, then?’‘Moreover, I can completely excuse m

    Bitterness swelled in Elaine's heart as she really didn't think that Matilda was doing so well for herself.The fact that Matilda was worth millions alone made her far superior.At the same time, she was also rejoicing that she had never actually met Matilda. If Matilda asked how she was doing directly, how would she respond?In the end, Matilda was no Hannah Queen.Elaine would actually feel accomplished if she compared herself to Hannah.On the other hand, Matilda eclipsed Elaine in every way—she was more beautiful, kind, smart, and knowledgeable. Even her figure left Elaine dead in the water!It was as pointless as comparing a hen to a peacock!Whenever she thought of her, she could comfort herself that she had stolen her man even if she couldn't measure up in any way.But now, Jacob was completely insignificant to Matilda while Elaine still treated Jacob like a trophy.Even as a sense of inferiority seized her, Charlie sighed. "Come on, you should understand where Jacob is

    "Exactly!"Charlie agreed, striking the metal while it was hot. "To be honest, the years Matilda spent in the States would be wasted if she was actually still interested!" "She's a Wall Street veteran who'd definitely have met so many successful men! Why would she be interested in a loser like Jacbo Wilson? It's not like she returned from the States after thirty years to help the poor, don't you agree?"Charlie then finished with a sigh. "The way I see it? You're the only one who'd be interested in him."Jacob heard that from behind the wall and was left absolutely fuming and humiliated.He was the only one who knew that Matilda had come back for him—even if she was worth millions now.However, he just didn't have the spine to divorce Elaine and get together with Matilda.He presumed that it was no rush and that he could just give Elaine the silent treatment—who knew, she might just give in and ask for a divorce herself, and then, he would have no issues getting together with M

    "Her real lover?!" Elaine exclaimed in shock. "What are you talking about?"Charlie put on a serious face as she said, "Matilda came back to Oskia for her one true love, who is now her fiance. His name is Yolden Hart, a top economist who's now a lecturer at Aurous Hill University, who was invited all the way from the States. He's a professional manager and used to work in Wall Street, so he'd be qualified to be a CEO in any Fortune 500 company…""Professional manager?" Elaine pouted. "That still means he's a wage slave!"Charlie laughed. "Don't underestimate professional managers now. Just look at Apple Inc.'s CEO—the man earns around a hundred million USD per year, and that's over seven hundred million in Oskian dollars!"Elaine was left gaping, unable to imagine how a wage slave could earn so much.At the same time, Charlie continued, "To be fair, Professor Hart wouldn't earn that much, but 50 million per year is still no sweat for him. Do you get the amount of money we're talki

    Elaine appeared taken aback, and she promptly demanded, "You've met Matilda too?!"It was only then that Claire realized she had let the cat out of the bag, and she suddenly didn't know what to say. "Oh… Uh… Mom… I, uh… didn't?"Nonetheless, Elaine was suddenly pressing her menacingly, "If you've never met her, how would you know she's a serious person?!"As Claire stayed silent, Elaine broke down in tears. "No… You're lying to me too! Aren't you?!"While Claire was left at a loss of how she should salvage this mess, Charlie suddenly entered and said, "Claire didn't—but I did.""What?!" Elaine was left staring at Charlie, stunned.Still, she soon demanded, "Y-You've met Matilda?! Did Jacob take you with him to see her?""Yes," Charlie admitted, nodding.Elaine snapped right then, and she bellowed, "Then why didn't you tell me?! To think that I've always done right by you, treating you like my own son, but you wouldn't tell me that Jacob is cheating on me! Y-You disappoint me!"

    Jacob certainly left Charlie speechless—the man might get kicked out of the house, but he was more worried about his car.Sighing in exasperation, he told Jacob, "Look, if it fails, I won't be able to get you a nice place, let alone leave the Cullinan with you."Jacob blurted out, "But why—""Don't forget—I'm still living in this house even if you're gone!" Charlie explained, his expression dead serious. "If I let you have a nice place and the Cullinan, God knows how terrible a grudge your wife would hold against me. I need to have a sense of self-preservation too!""If I got you a rundown apartment, I could at least defend myself even if she gets upset about that. I mean, I can't let you sleep in the streets, can I? Claire and I would be guilty of abandoning our elders."Seeing the serious look on Charlie's face, Jacob breathed a long sigh as he clapped him on the shoulder, groaning mournfully, "Oh, I get it. I wouldn't want to upset Elaine if I were in your shoes too…"Charlie

    Charlie sighed. "I told you it'd blow up, Dad, but you had to doubt me.""I wasn't doubting you," Jacob promptly defended himself. "I thought I might catch a lucky break—"Charlie cut him short, "Fair enough. Then, how are you going to handle this? I can try to stop Mom from going to that wedding and prevent her from getting in the hall even if she went, but what's going to happen to the both of you? Do you want a divorce or do you want to stay with her?"The light in Jacob's faded as he shrugged and sighed. "If I could divorce her, I would've—and I would be living happily with Matilda now. What company would I have if I did it now? Do you think Elaine would let me stay in Thompson First, with that attitude of hers?""In the end, I'd be chased out without a place to stay, and I can't suffer the humiliation of moving back with my mom and brother, can I? Hell, they might not even take me back!""So, that's a no?" Charlie pressed.Jacob smiled wryly. "At my age, even if I could, I w

    Hearing that Elaine was threatening suicide, Claire exclaimed urgently, "Take me to her now!"The traffic police officer quickly nodded. "Come on!"As the traffic police officer quickly led Claire to Elaine, Charlie arrived just then and gave chase after leaving the luggage by the entrance.Stopping them, he asked, "Excuse me, officer—where's the gentleman who came with Madam Parker? May I see him?""And who are you?" The traffic police officer asked."I'm his son-in-law," Charlier replied. "I was thinking that while my wife talks to her mom, I can talk to my father-in-law, make peace, and take them both home.""Oh, that'd be great!"The traffic police officer exclaimed and quickly beckoned at a colleague, "Come over. Take this gentleman to Jacob Wilson!""Okay!" The other traffic police officer was also quite enthusiastic.Charlie entered the room where Jacob was first, immediately seeing a disfigured Jacob taking deep puffs of his cigarette.Another traffic police officer w

    Charlie frowned in thought for a while, before saying, "Well, there is a plan, but I can't vouch for the chances. I also need you to cooperate with me and not let anything slip, or everything will go to waste. Can you do that?""I can!" Claire nodded, determined, before quickly asking, "So? What's the plan?""Well, it's not specific," Charlie replied. "We just have to improvise as we go along. Let's just head in for now!"-They left the airport and took a cab to the traffic police's headquarters. Just as she entered, they saw their Cullinan parked outside.Charlie sent Claire in first while he carried her luggage before following.Meanwhile, Elaine was wailing in her room, "I've been married to him for years! Suffering so much pain and humiliation, only for him to hook up with an old flame behind my back! Is it wrong if I struck out?"The traffic police officer was on the verge of a breakdown, but he still said patiently, "Ma'am, I've told you many times—what he did was wrong

    Claire wasn't all that experienced in love and hence didn't know how a person caught in a love triangle would think or why they would experience such terrible mood swings.Still, Charlie's explanation gave her a general idea, and she sighed, "Actually, Dad looked really bad when Matilda came back. He was so obsessed with her that he didn't care if Mom was alive—even bringing her home for dinner. I'd be seething if I was Mom."Charlie sighed in exasperation. "Well, let's not loiter about. Let's go to the traffic police station.""Yeah!" Claire nodded, before holding his arm, "If they're there, that means they're safe, and they won't be fighting with those officers around. So, let's not head over so quickly."Charlie raised a brow. "What are you getting at?"Claire sighed, clearly troubled. "We have to think—how are we going to alleviate this crisis? If it's really as you say and Mom has mostly guessed it right, this fight might just be the start. At best, that fight on the highway
