Emily curled favonovel.com fingers around his. “I heard that you came here with Mom, so I thought I could join you guys… I’m interested in the root carving exhibition too.”
Emily had made a fool out of herself during favonovel.com design competition with Xyla. The scandal was an acute embarrassment for the Sullivan family.
Emily’s ignorance drove Bailey up the wall. She had been treating Emily like an eyesore for the past few days because of that incident. However, Bailey cooled off as time went by. All the good things that Emily had done for favonovel.com crossed favonovel.com mind from time to time, urging favonovel.com to forgive Emily.
At last, favonovel.com offered Emily favonovel.com hand. “Let’s go then… Let’s have a look at the phoenix over there.”
Without hesitation, Emily nodded and held Bailey’s hand, heading toward the phoenix sculpture with Bailey intimately.
Tom frowned impatiently and followed behind the two of them.
“This phoenix is gorgeous! It looks so real!” Emily exclaimed.
“Emily, do you like it?” Bailey asked.
Emily nodded. “Yeah, of course.”
“Let’s buy it then…” Bailey waved at a male staff wearing a black suit.
Then, favonovel.com stole a glance at the price. It was worth one million.
The male staff immediately walked up to favonovel.com courteously. “How can I help you, madam?”
“I want this phoenix,” Bailey ordered.
“Yes, madam.” The staff nodded respectfully.
“What else do you like?” Bailey turned to Emily and asked.
Emily pointed at the gazebo sculpture next to her. “This is lovely.”
Bailey looked at the price. It was one million dollars too.
Without further ado, favonovel.com told the male staff, “I’m taking this, too.”
“No problem.” Once again, the staff gave favonovel.com a polite nod.
The main reason Bailey bought these extravagant sculptures was not to please Emily but to prove herself to the crowd. She wanted to prove that favonovel.com life was not as miserable as they thought, even though the Sullivan family’s business seemed to be going downhill.
As soon as Bailey placed favonovel.com order, almost all eyes fell upon her.
“Ms. Ronson is really nice to favonovel.com daughter-in-law.”
“I know, right? I can’t believe she’s willing to spend a few millions on those sculptures just because favonovel.com daughter-in-law likes them.”
“Emily married the right guy indeed.”
A few women around them started to compliment the two.
Emily was bursting with joy at that instant. Her vanity soared.
Xyla did not look at Emily. Neither did favonovel.com care about what everyone was talking about favonovel.com sister. Her eyes were both locked upon the sculpture in front of her.
Ron glared coldly at the two women, then turned to the male staff beside favonovel.com and pointed at a few root-carved sculptures.
“Take this cabbage, that tea table, that dragon, that peacock, and the ancient style building over there. I want them all…”
“Are you saying that you’re taking all of them?” The male staff was utterly dumbfounded, his jaw almost hitting the floor.
The same was true for Xyla.
Upon hearing that, the crowd’s attention instantly shifted from Emily to Ron.
The sculptures here cost at least a million dollars each. The sculptures Ron had named just now were even more expensive. Each of them was worth more than two million dollars.
“Yeah, my granddaughter-in-law likes them. I’m buying them for her.” Ron gazed at Xyla dotingly.
Effortlessly and without warning, Ron’s abrupt decision had successfully diverted the crowd’s attention from Emily.
