A Love Forgotten (Arianna and Elijah) novel Chapter 68

Chapter 68 

The next morning, as soon as we woke up, Teri and I started discussing our next steps. Teri suggested we start by dealing with the personal belongings I’d taken from Elijah’s villa. 

“Let’s turn them into cash!” she exclaimed, outlining her plan on a piece of paper. 

*First, we have the high–end items–those alone are worth millions. We’ll sell them on reputable luxury. resale platforms. Then, there’s the valuable jewelry and accessories, followed by the more affordable luxury pieces.” 

She tapped the paper confidently. “Even with a conservative estimate, you could easily earn at least 20 million dollars from everything!” 

She grinned widely. “With 20 million dollars in the bank, you’d earn a significant amount in interest every. 

year. 

You’re on the verge of striking it rich!” 

I didn’t fully grasp the details since my parents never really taught me about money managemen… However, I understood Teri’s point and quickly responded, “Let’s get started then!” 

Teri quickly reached out to the largest luxury resale store in Halton City to inform them that we had a substantial collection of high–end items for sale. 

They agreed to take the items and assured us they would offer competitive prices, given their strong reputation. 

After dinner, Teri and I loaded the car with designer handbags and watches, and she confidently drove us to the city’s largest luxury resale store. 

About half an hour later, we reached the luxury resale store. It was massive, featuring an impressive array of second–hand high–end items. 

As soon as we stepped inside, we were overwhelmed by the sheer volume of items on display. This wasn’t just the largest luxury resale platform–it was the biggest luxury resale store around. 

Being naturally drawn to shiny, beautiful things, we quickly found ourselves distracted. 

“This bag is such a great deal! It retails for 23 thousand dollars, but it’s only eight thousand dollars here! I’m really tempted…” 

“Hold on, isn’t this the classic Hermes model? I heard the accessories alone can cost 200 thousand dollars! But here, it’s only marked up by 50 thousand dollars.” 

I pulled Teri aside. “Let’s not forget why we’re here. We need to stay focused on our task.” 

Teri wiped away her non–existent drool and sat up straight, eagerly awaiting the appraiser’s valuation. 

The appraiser, clearly accustomed to situations like this, smiled and said, “Ladies, feel free to browse our collection after we finish the valuation. We guarantee all the items are authentic, and we have like–new second–hand items that can save you a lot of money.” 

I quickly shook my head. “No need. We’re just here to sell these items.” 

The appraiser smiled and continued the valuation. After a thorough assessment, he finally quoted a total price of 3.53 million dollars.
