Chapter 716
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone turned to look at Elizabeth.
Alexander squeezed through the crowd, frowned at her, and listened to what she had just said.
Magnolia looked at her with even more astonishment. How could she possibly have it?
'Tears of Snow' was currently just a design draft, and Kennedy hadn't said it was sold.
Blair suddenly laughed twice.
The atmosphere became a bit tense, and everyone kept their mouths shut, adopting a wait-and-see attitude.
Only Blair's laughter grew increasingly arrogant.
Natalia even tugged at Elizabeth's arm, warning her not to speak carelessly, especially about Kennedy's new work.
"Who are you trying to fool? If Kennedy's 'Tears of Snow' was sold, the design forum would have announced it. But Kennedy hasn't posted anything!" Blair pointed at Elizabeth. "So, you're lying!"
"Because we're still finalizing the contract, but Kennedy has already confirmed the sale to me." Elizabeth tilted her head, exuding an aura of wealth.
"It's impossible!" Blair declared confidently.
The onlookers also chimed in, "Indeed, we haven't heard anything. Elizabeth, if you don't have it, just admit it. No need to elevate your status over this."
"Exactly, if you don't have it, it's no big deal!"
"We're destined not to reach Kennedy's level. I think OpulentCrest Jewelry is pretty good too." Someone laughed, mocking themselves while praising OpulentCrest Jewelry.
Led by Natalia, everyone doubted that Elizabeth had 'Tears of Snow'.
The more they spoke, the harsher their words became, even telling Elizabeth, "Your parents aren't pretentious people. How did you become so vain?"
Elizabeth's face turned cold.
Natalia suddenly seemed to remember something. She looked up at her and quietly asked, "Could it be a billion dollars last time I accidently saw? Did you buy it?"
She recalled Elizabeth's chat record from that day at the hospital.
Alexander heard Natalia's words, and a complex look flashed in his eyes.
As Kennedy had also quoted him a billion dollars.
But when he agreed, Kennedy stopped responding to his messages.
So it turned out that it was sold.
No wonder when he said he would give Elizabeth Kennedy's comeback piece, she was so calm for she had actually bought it.
Alexander chuckled bitterly, shaking his head with a complicated expression. He seemed to have forgotten that Elizabeth was no longer the girl who used to follow him around, hoping he would buy her this and that.
Back then, even when she asked him for things, she could still support herself. She just wanted to feel what it was like for him to buy her things.
Now, she truly didn't need it.
She was the socialite of the Percy Family, and Declan had only one daughter, naturally giving her all the money to spend as she pleased. As long as she was happy, it was worth it.
A billion dollars to make Elizabeth happy, Declan was more than willing to do so.
After all, his love for Elizabeth was well-known.
Blair listened to Elizabeth and Natalia's conversation, her expression trembling.
"Who can prove it's a billion dollars just because you say so?" Blair scoffed.
Everyone nodded in agreement, starting to point fingers at Elizabeth again.
"It's just a set of jewelry. Even if it's Kennedy's, it's not worth a billion dollars, right?"
"You really know how to sell yourself as a rich person. A billion dollars. How can you even say that?"
"If someone can prove that Kennedy's comeback piece is really a billion dollars, I'll do anything Elizabeth asks!"
Alexander then looked up. It was a young man in his twenties, probably a rich kid from some family.
What a shame to make a promise like that.
Alexander pursed his lips and stepped forward to the center of the crowd.
Everyone was somewhat apprehensive when they saw Alexander.
They all thought he was going to help Elizabeth out of this situation, and it would be brushed off.
But they realized he was there to confirm the truth.
"Kennedy's comeback piece is indeed priced at a billion dollars. Elizabeth did not exaggerate." Alexander's gaze swept over the man who had just made a promise.
The man's face changed instantly. "It's impossible!"
