Lost Me, Gained Regret (Jane and Bryant Ferguson) novel Chapter 287

Was she for real? How kind she was to me?

Her display of generosity couldn't fool me, not after the heart-to-heart she had with Bryant in the hospital room. I remembered every word.

Susan seemed to eat it up, giving her a disapproving tap on the head, "My dear, why is your heart so set on Bryant?"

Dorothy smiled obediently, "He's such a catch. Some people don't appreciate what they have, but I do."

She was mocking me.

I found it amusing but had no desire to get tangled in her web. I wanted to cut to the chase and asked again, "So, can you tell me what you want now?"

"Make it luxurious!"

She commanded, laying out her most important requirement, then added, "I want loads of diamonds, real sparklers, with a collar lined with top-tier pearls. It must look expensive at first glance. Oh, and rubies, I adore red..."

By the end, I was almost overwhelmed.

Diamonds, pearls, rubies.

She wasn't asking for a dress; she was asking for a jewelry box.

I couldn't tell if she genuinely liked that style or was just making things difficult on purpose.

I pursed my lips, trying to keep it professional, "Ms. Myers, that might be a bit too much. It's hard to highlight anything when..."

Dorothy scoffed, "Jane, are you jealous?"

I was speechless.

Her attitude was one of spoiled superiority, "Jealous that I can have a dress with a seven-figure budget? Must sting, huh? Too bad! You weren't born into this, without great parents, and now a divorcee..."

She was crazy!
