Even though she had no tears, Elaine really felt like crying when she heard this.
However, in order to maintain her status as the top amongst the noblewomen, she could only clench her teeth and bear with it.
After all, she thought to herself, 'I cannot argue with this salesgirl for the arrival time of the seventy thousand dollars. After all, she was quite good to me and gave me so many discounts...'
'What's more, it’s not that they are not going to return the seventy thousand dollars back to me. It's just the normal procedure, so how can I have a fallout with them over this? Wouldn't it be a little too unreasonable of me, then?’
As Elaine thought of this, she could not help but sigh as she thought to herself, 'The main thing is that I only have more than two thousand dollars in my bank card now, and it will only be enough to last me for a few days...'
After making up her mind, Elaine did not continue talking about this issue. Instead, she pretended to laugh and casually said to the salesgirl, "It's okay! I’ll go back and redeem some pocket money first, then.”
The salesgirl nodded and said, "Don’t forget to come to the store for the lottery at around 1.00 pm or 2.00 pm!"
"Okay!" Elaine smiled and said, "I'll try to win your grand prize at that time!"
The salesgirl laughed and said, "I'm sure you'll be able to!"
Elaine nodded, put her necklace away, and said to Hannah, "Hannah, let’s go."
Hannah was so envious that she simply answered absentmindedly and followed Elaine out of the store.
As soon as they went out, Hannah could not help but say, "Elaine, you’re really lucky to have been able to get such a good bargain! There is really no one who can get a bargain that is two hundred thousand dollars cheaper!"
Elaine was also very happy, and she smiled as she said, "To be honest with you, I feel that my luck has been getting better and better ever since I started to draw a clear line with the Wilson family."
Hannah sighed and said, "When will I ever be able to draw a clear line with this family, especially with that d*mned old lady? I'm annoyed to death when I see her every day now!"
Elaine laughed as she said, "Why are you even bothered about her? She doesn't have many years left to live, anyway.”
