Chapter 11 Testing the Authenticity of the Bracelet
When Emmett found that they were about to verify the authenticity of the bracelet, he hurriedly said, "Giselle, just forget it. Florence did not mean to do so either. If we call the police, it will not only ruin her but will also damage the company's image. You can just fire her. Anyway, we have already found the bracelet."
It seemed that Emmett was helping Florence, but Florence found some underlying meanings in his words.
Emmett was afraid. He was also averting them from the most important fact and trying to divert their attention to something less important.
What was he afraid of?
Giselle coldly grunted, "Test it. I want to see how this woman will keep arguing stubbornly with her distorted facts."
When Emmett found that they were about to test it, he was so nervous that he had cold sweat on his forehead.
Heidi took a closer look at the bracelet, and Colleen impatiently asked, "Heidi, how is it?"
Giselle also said, "The bracelet is engraved with my initials and Emmett's, which are at the inner wall of the bracelet."
Heidi frowned, "I don't see any engraved letters, and this bracelet is indeed ..."
"Ms. Sawyer, your bracelet has been found."
At this moment, Hannah from the secretary department came over with an identical bracelet, "I found it in the bathroom. It fell on to the ground and was under the sink. Ms. Sawyer, take a look, is it yours?"
Giselle took a look at the bracelet and saw that it did have letters engraved on the inner side, "This is the bracelet of mine."
This also meant that Florence didn't take Giselle's bracelet.
"Heidi, can I have the bracelet back?" Florence said with a quite polite attitude.
When Colleen found that they could not prove Florence was a thief, Colleen was upset and said coldly and sarcastically, "Florence, though your boyfriend is poor, tell your boyfriend, do not buy something he couldn't afford. He is making a joke here by buying a fake bracelet"
Giselle also said disdainfully, "If it weren't for your vanity of buying an imitation one today, it wouldn't cause such a mess here. What a joke. Florence, your boyfriend is just so-so."
Once she finished her words, and before Florence spoke, Heidi suddenly said, "The bracelet in Ms. Scott's hand is real."
Heidi's words made Colleen and Giselle's expressions change, and the air was suddenly quiet.
Florence was also surprised.
This was just an imitation that was only worth a few hundred, how could it be real?
All the colleagues were dumbfounded, especially the female colleagues.
What an extraordinary boyfriend did Florence have? He was surprisingly generous at buying gifts.
This really made them jealous.
"How is it possible?" Colleen first came back to her senses. She had failed to control her emotions, and her voice was sharp, "Heidi, look more carefully. How can Florence's bracelet be real?"
Giselle also said, "There is only one Heart of the Goddess in the world, and it was bought for me by Emmett for my birthday. Besides, how can Florence afford it?"
Heidi frowned, "I am Feder's assistant. Whether the bracelet is real or not, I can tell its authenticity at a glance. Moreover, it is never possible to engrave any words on the Heart of the Goddess."
Giselle immediately looked at Emmett . At this time, Emmett was already drenched in his cold sweat due to guilt, "Giselle, I...I also have no idea about it either. I entrusted someone to buy it on my behalf. I must be cheated."
How could Emmett expect that he would run into an authentic bracelet so coincidentally while he only bought some bracelet randomly?
Giselle became irritated and smashed the bracelet into Emmett 's face, "Shame on you."
Weren't the sarcastic words she said to Florence just now a loud slap in her own face?
Giselle was eager to find a hole in the ground to hide in there. She really felt ashamed to stay here, so she turned around and stomped away.
"Giselle, Giselle." Emmett chased after her.
Colleen still didn't believe that what Florence was holding was the real bracelet.
It was the Heart of the Goddess worth $8 million, and it was the bracelet she had always wanted. She had used all her connections but still failed to buy it.
How could it have fallen into Florence's hands?
Heidi handed the bracelet back to Florence, "Ms. Scott, please keep it well. This Heart of the Goddess means eternal true love. It seems your boyfriend is very devoted to you. Wish you both happiness."
"Thank you."
Florence didn't believe it was real at all. Maybe they all made a mistake on it.
Colleen gnashed her teeth with jealousy, "Florence, how can your poor boyfriend afford to buy this bracelet? Who gave you this bracelet? And who is the new deep pocket you are fawning over recently?"
The implication was that Florence slept with someone to get it by any means necessary.
"Stop being so arrogant." Florence did not want to talk to Colleen at all, "Last night's lesson is not enough?"
Thinking about last night, Colleen became even more furious.
That was the most humiliating time in her life.
Florence packed her things and left.
Colleen was so angry that she stomped her foot, "Heidi, are you still my friend? How can you speak for the outsiders?"
Heidi knew Colleen was throwing her temper again, and she said, "I'm just sticking to the fact."
Colleen looked in the direction Florence left, and a touch of hatred flashed in her eyes.
She would never let Florence get away with it.
...
Florence didn't rush back. She went to the gift store to buy a gift for Alexander in return.
When she got out of the gift store, she ran into William unexpectedly.
William was talking to a man on the side of the road. He saw Florence, smiled, and walked over, "Ms. Scott, what a coincidence."
Florence smiled slightly, "Yes, what a coincidence. We meet again."
William glanced at the gift in Florence's hand, "A gift for Alexander?"
"He gave me a bracelet this morning. So it's a gift in return."
As Florence spoke, she glanced at an acquaintance and her face turned gloomy.
A man in his fifties walked over with four bodyguards. This person was none other than the Scott family's butler, Archer.
"Miss, Mr. Scott wants you to go back."
Archer's tone did not show any respect to Florence.
Florence's face was cold, "I'm not going back."
"Mr. Scott heard that you have made some indecent friends and is very angry. It is better for you to go back. Otherwise, he would stop Zachary's medicine due to rage. As for the consequences, Miss, you know it very well."
It was so apparent. Florence knew that it must be Colleen provoking Lincoln.
