The boss was confused but a thought soon flashed across his head. Consequently, he nodded and then shook his head. “Madam, it is something good, but it’s not worth much. It’s a fake. Why don’t I take this for one hundred thousand dollars?”
The boss knew that the bangle would sell for at least 100 million in the market.
“What? Only a hundred thousand?”
When Martha heard him, she snatched the bangle back and shook her head. “I’m not selling it anymore. My husband told me that it’s worth at least a few hundred thousand. You’re lying to me!”
The boss hurriedly explained after hearing her words, “Madam, I came all the way here. There’s no reasoning for me to lie to you. It is indeed a fake and only cost a hundred thousand bucks. If you don’t believe me, you can ask other people. If anyone offers you a higher price, I, Mo Dunbar, will pay you twice the price they offer you!”
Having said that, Mo pretended to get up and leave.
He was the head of the industry. Therefore, he only needed to let the word out and no one would offer her a price higher than his.
That way, he would only make a profit and not suffer any loss.
When Martha saw that he was about to leave, she started to panic. Thus, she grabbed him and said, “Go higher. A hundred thousand is too little.”
Mo smirked with a pleased look on his face and sat back down. Taking the bangle and looking at it again, he said, “Madam, I think you’re an honest woman. So, I’ll give you 150 thousand for this. If you say yes, I’ll go get the cash for you right now.”
Martha initially wanted to turn down his offer after hearing the amount. However, after figuring that the bangle indeed only cost that much, she was hesitant to do so.
Mo was not in a hurry and merely took a sip of his tea.
“What’s it going to be, madam? You only have one chance.” Mo tried to entice Martha.
Martha gritted her teeth and said after bracing herself, “Alright, 150 thousand!”
Mo was ecstatic. He was able to buy a glassy jade bangle worth 100 million with just 150 thousand. He was going to be rich!
All of a sudden!
Bang!
The door was kicked open violently. As a result, the two of them in the room were taken aback and immediately began to feel extremely nervous.
Martha snatched the bangle back from Mo’s hand. She was worried that it was a robber!
However, when Martha saw who it was, she became enraged. She pointed at Philip who was walking over toward her coldly and shrieked, “Do you want to die? Who asked you to kick the door? Why are you back, you sniveling good-for-nothing? Didn’t I tell you that you’re not allowed to be in the house? Get out now!”
Philip was becoming gutsier and gutsier. He was at the point where he dared to kick the door open!
Did he want to die?
Mo jumped up out of shock. Seeing the man approaching them, he complained silently inside his heart and asked Martha, “Madam, who is this? Do you want me to kick him out?”
Martha said viciously, “He’s my son-in-law. He’s just a good-for-nothing. Ignore him.”
Mo came to a realization, and a smirk appeared on his face. He said, “Oh, it’s just a good-for-nothing. I thought it was someone else.”
Having finished speaking, the two were about to go out.
However, Philip blocked the door as coldness radiated from his body. His eyes were red and flames of anger could be seen flickering in his eyes. He stared at the jade bangle on Martha’s wrist and said in a deep voice, “Take that thing off!”
An uncontrollable flame could be seen in Philip’s eyes. He looked like a ferocious beast.
After Martha said that, she took out her phone and called Wynn. Then, she slapped her thigh and bawled, “Wynnie, come home quick! Philip is going to kill me!”
Wynn was busy working overtime in her office when she received Martha’s call. Thus, she felt extremely annoyed.
There was trouble once more.
“Alright, I’ll come home now.”
Wynn felt helpless as she grabbed her coat and rushed home.
On the other hand, Philip looked nonchalant. His eyes were glued on Martha who was making a scene while sitting on the floor. He said coldly, “I’ll say it again, take it off!”
Afterward, he began to approach Martha slowly as coldness enveloped his body.
The fire in his eyes was burning even brighter than the fire in a furnace.
Martha was beyond petrified. She only bullied naive and well-behaved people. Hence, she had not expected this piece of trash to be so out of the ordinary that day, taking it as far as to slap her!
How arrogant!
He was undisciplined and out of control!
If she did not teach him a lesson, how would she continue to be his mother-in-law? How would she manipulate this good-for-nothing?
In the midst of her anger, Martha removed the bangle. She had the urge to throw it toward the wall but suddenly had an idea as she yelled, “Take it off, take it off, take it off! Don’t you want this? I’ll smash it so no one can have it!”
