Miss Nobody Is Taking A Backfire novel Chapter 18

After the meeting, Shirley began to plan to sell her property. First of all, she asked someone to estimate the price of several houses, and they were sold out in less than a day.

In fact, Shirley's property was not only about the houses. Her father had given her mother a lot of jewelry before, and they were all treasures from the auction. But at the same time, it was also her father's love for her mom.

Shirley had seen the jewelry one by one. When her mother was alive, except for attending some large-scale events, she had put other jewelry in the safe box. Since her mother had passed away, only her father had occasionally opened the safe box to look at the jewelry to miss his wife.

When Shirley opened the safe, she saw the neatly arranged jewelry, on which there was a card recording the time, but the years were different. Shirley guessed that it might be their wedding anniversary. She couldn't help thinking of her parents. In fact, she lived in an ordinary family. Her parents were not important people, so their life was very simple. However, Shirley could always find love from the way they looked at each other. It was not the reckless love when they were young, but the deep and strong love after years.

Therefore, when Shirley saw those jewelry, she felt a sense of familiarity for no reason. If she hadn't been in such a predicament, she wouldn't have sold them for the rest of her life.

Shirley handed them over to an auction house. She swore to herself that she would buy them back when she got through the difficulty.

After so many setbacks and setbacks, the funds were finally solved and everything was ready. The start day was just around the corner, but the biggest concern in Shirley's mind was that Karla would make trouble again that day.

As expected, Karla had been waiting for Shirley at the filming site for a long time. This time, Shirley knew that she couldn't avoid it, so she'd better fight back face to face, so that she could live a peaceful life in the following few days.

Today, Karla was still wearing her favorite white dress and a pink Chanel coat. If these were worn by other girls, Shirley would think that it was a symbol of purity and innocence. But she knew Karla's true face, so Shirley felt that the white color was probably stained by her.

On the other hand, Shirley was dressed in a simple sportswear. After all, she was not here to show off, but to work.

Shirley saw that Karla had been waiting there for a long time with her arms crossed over her chest. Instead of dodging, Shirley walked straight to her. Seeing that Shirley didn't ignore her and instead walked towards her, Karla was a little confused. Normally, Shirley didn't want to get involved with her, so she took off her sunglasses.

The two stood face to face. Although Karla wore ten-centimeter high-heeled shoes, she was still not as tall as Shirley who wore sneakers.

"How are you going? I'm afraid you will have a hard time these days. " With a smile at the corners of her mouth, Karla looked at Shirley with arrogance and complacency in her eyes. If those men saw her like this, would they still treat her as a goddess?

"Yes, thanks to you. I have been busy these days in vain." If it weren't for the news that Karla had taken part in a new drama, the investors wouldn't have withdrawn their investment all of a sudden, and she wouldn't have come to the stage of selling her property. Looking at Karla's face, Shirley really wanted to slap her in the face. She hoped that she could restrain herself and not irritate her.

"I heard that you sold all your property and sold all the jewelry your father gave to your mother. What a pity. By the way, look what's this." Karla raised her white wrist. There was a bracelet on it, which was very eye-catching. The beads on the bracelet were all precious emeralds, and there was a circle of broken diamonds around each gem, which was very luxurious and precious. And this bracelet was one of the jewelry that she had sent to the auction.

Shirley was shocked and grabbed her wrist. Her eyes were full of anger. "Why is it here? ?"

Karla broke free from her grip at once. Because Shirley held her too tightly, there was a red mark on her arm. Just then, Karla saw Samuel not far behind Shirley.

Samuel had heard that Shirley's new drama was on today and he came to visit her. But he didn't expect to meet the two of them. Since they were too far away, he couldn't hear the conversation between Shirley and Karla clearly. It was exactly because Karla saw Samuel that she said something to irritate Shirley.

"Of course I bought it. Damon bought it for me. Your father has a good taste and it suits me well." Karla held her wrist in front of Shirley on purpose to show her the bracelet.
