Black Rose: Revenge Of The Callous Heiress novel Chapter 18

The moment Sophia heard footsteps coming the stairs she turned around and a gasp escaped her mouth when she saw Rose. Earlier when she entered Rose's room, she was taken aback by her beautiful face but had composed herself but seeing her now fully dressed, Sophia was unable to control herself, her eyes burning with jealousy as she stared at Rose up and down.

Rose was wearing a black spaghetti string-strap knee-length gown, a small cropped jacket, she matched her dress with a black leather platform ankle boots. She had her long hair tied up in a half up and half down ponytail, leaving a few strands falling in front of her face. Everything Rose was wearing was practically black and this black dress was the only good cloth that caught her attention among the varieties of dresses she had.

“Wow, sister, you look stunning in this black dress.” Sophia suddenly commented, quickly flashing a smile on her face.

“Let's go." Rose said when she got to where Sophia was standing and made her way to the entrance door. She acted like she hadn't noticed the jealous look in her eyes when she walked down the stairs.

‘You’ve learned a lot from your mother.’ Rose thought as she walked in front of Sophia.

The driver was already waiting outside. Seeing the two ladies coming, he hurriedly got out of the car and opened the door for them. "To Diamond bank." Sophia told the driver with a grin on her face.

Roseline had kept all her jewelry in the safe at the bank, and she was the only one who had the key, her fingerprint. The driver glanced at the two girls in the rear-view mirror, the younger one was beaming with joy while the older one was lifeless and emotionless. He sighed silently, feeling sorry for Rose, and started the engine.

When they got to the city center, Rose suddenly asked the driver to stop.

“Sister, why are we stopping here? Do you have something you want to get here?" Sophia asked, curiosity burning in her eyes.

“Follow me." Rose didn't bother to entertain her curiosity. She got out of the car and walked straight to the BlueGold Jewellery store, one of the best jewelry shops in Los Angeles. They had the trendiest styles. Every piece was designed by top designers from around the world, exquisite and extremely expensive. And only those with tremendous fortune could afford it.

The salesgirls observed their attire and knew they were potential customers. They had enough experience to tell if one could afford to buy a piece of jewelry from their store in a few seconds' time. They quickly swarmed towards the two girls with great determination to make sales.

“Welcome to our store, how can I be of assistance to you." A lady greeted them with a professional smile. She was wearing a different uniform apart from the ones the other sales ladies in the store were wearing. And Rose could guess that she was one of the high ranking staff here in this jewelry shop- probably a section Manager.

Rose looked at the woman and responded calmly to her hospitality, "Please get us the best jewelry in your shop." She requested.

Her mannerism was of elegance and grace. One could easily tell that she was from a noble and wealthy family.

On hearing that, the woman's face glowed with joy. The section Manager hurried forward and brought them the finest items.

Rose picked up a few glittering ones, before turning to look at Sophia and smiled at her. “Here, sis, pick whichever you like. We shall get you some new ones to match with your dress for the party.”

Rose was aware that her step-mum was a VIP customer at the shop, that was why she had chosen to stop at this particular jewelry shop because she could put the payment of the jewelry on her tab.
