Chapter 1118
Beatrix couldn't hold herself back anymore. She walked up to Charlotte and yelled, “Armand and Genevieve are already dead, Charlotte!”
Charlotte was stunned.
Beatrix chuckled frostily. “So what if you're close with Genevieve? So what if your boyfriend is influential? This is Jadeborough!”
With that, Beatrix poked Charlotte and added, “You'd better don't be so full of yourself in Jadeborough...”
Charlotte waited till Beatrix had her fun before touching her own collarbone. Suddenly, the necklace Charlotte was wearing unbuckled and dropped to the floor.
The pendant on the necklace was a butterfly, and the colored gemstones on the wings of the butterfly dropped out.
Charlotte picked the necklace up and scolded, “You can talk all you want, but why did you have to pull my necklace? This necklace is a collector's edition, and it's worth over two hundred thousand! How are you going to compensate me?”
“Have some shame, Charlotte!” Beatrix fumed. “I poked at you just now. I didn't pull your necklace.”
“How could it break if you didn't pull it?” Charlotte responded.
“I saw your hands—■”
“What? Are you trying to say that I've broken it myself?” Charlotte interrupted Beatrix's speech. “Are you a lunatic, or am I the crazy one? It's so expensive that I don't even bear to wear it often.”
Charlotte then looked at the necklace in her hands with her teary eyes and said, “This is a birthday present from my dad...”
“Hey, Charlotte—” Beatrix wanted to unleash her wrath at Charlotte, but she remembered who was backing Charlotte up. In the end, she had to swallow her rage and back off. “I'm done talking to you!”
“Hey! Stop right there.” Charlotte grabbed Beatrix and prevented her from leaving. “Pay for my necklace.”
Beatrix's blood started boiling and she yelled, “Let go of me!”
While they were arguing, other customers in the store gathered around them to see what was the commotion about.
“Everyone, look at her. She broke my necklace and didn't want to pay for it.” Charlotte was sobbing when she said, “This is a birthday present from my father.”
