Okay, yes, immediately." The sales lady quickly nodded and carried the gowns to the counter.
Bethany looked at her and said, "Looks like her commission would be sizeable this time.”
Bent rubbed his chin and mumbled,"All thanks to you.”
"No, the credit goes to Ms. Downey just gave her a nudge." Bethany stroked her hair and said with satisfaction.
On hearing what they said, Helena finally realized what was happening and then glared at Bethany, "Take me for a fool? You intentionally made me do it?"
Bethany waved her hand and asked,“Ms. Downey was just impulsive and liked to compete with me. If you did not, then I could not have fooled you. Isn't it?"
"You..." Helena gritted her teeth.
Bethany smiled and then said,"Let's go, Bent. We'll buy the gown at another store. This store had practically been emptied by Ms. Downey."
"Okay." Bent agreed and walked out.
He paused beside Helena, lowered his spectacles, and glared sinisterly at her for several seconds. When her face was noticeably pale, he pushed up his spectacles and then went after Bethany.
They went to another shop for the evening gown.
This time Bethany managed to buy a gown of her choice without Helena's interference. Thereafter, Bent brought Bethany to a jewelry store to buy something to complement the gown.
However, just as they were choosing,Bent left after he received a call. Bethany was left alone in the store.
It was a good thing that Bent left.
At least she need not keep up her guard against him.
"Mr. Meyer, isn't that Ms. Quest?"Gael said to zayn when he saw Bethany from outside the jewelry store.
Zayn stopped and looked in the the direction that Gael pointed, and he truly saw Bethany.
Bethany was standing in front of the counter, holding a blue diamond necklace in her hand, and was trying it around her neck.
Seemingly not too satisfied with the necklace, she shook her head, put it back into the velvet tray, and pointed to another one through the glass.
"Those pieces of jewelry should go with evening dresses. They are not for daily wearing. So is she going to some kind of party? ” Gael speculated.
A faint flash flickered in Zayn's eyes. “I remember that this store has a set of Firefox, right?”
"Yes!" Gael nodded. "The main diamond of the set is a rare blood diamond. Its color is red-black. Nobody can manage it. So it has not been sold out yet, and is now kept in the safe as the treasure of the store.”
"Then do you think she can manage it? Zayn looked at Bethany's beautiful face and asked in a light voice.
Gael understood something and swallowed. "Mr. Meyer, do you want to give....”
“Just answer my question," Zayn interrupted him unhappily.
Gael was sure that Zayn just wanted to give Heart of Firefox to Bethany.
So he thought about it seriously and then said, "Ms. Quest has a beautiful and aggressive face, just like Firefox, So I think she can manage it.”
“That's good. You go and inform the store manager to get the Firefox and let her try it”. Zayn raised his chin slightly and ordered Gael.
Gael nodded but still could not help but ask, "Mr. Meyer, can I know why you give her Firefox? You do not fall for her, do you?"
Zayn withdrew his gaze back from Bethany. "After the Oceania show is over, the clothing company will no longer be part of the general headquarters. As the biggest helper,nshe should get her share of the reward."
"Although she should be rewarded, she should get money, not jewelry. Besides this, the show has not begun, huh?" Gael muttered.
Zayn looked at him coldly. Gael did not dare to speak. He touched his nose tip and immediately went to do as he was told.
Soon Firefox was personally delivered to Bethany by the store manager, who also helped her wear it.”
After seeing her wear it, Zayn felt that her whole temperament was different. She looked more like a queen on high.
The red blood-dripping Firefox did not cover her beauty, and she did not steal the dazzle of the firefox.
Both she and Firefox were clearly becoming each other.
“Mr. Meyer, it's done." Gael returned to Zayn's side.
Zayn ignored him and only stared at Bethany who was looking in the mirror.
Seeing this, Gael also looked over.
After seeing Bethany, he said in amazement, "I was right. Ms. Quest can manage Firefox."
"All right. Let's go." Zayn withdrew his gaze. "Go get the things you bought for Jessie. She is still waiting.”
"Okay!" Gael replied.
In the jewelry store, Bethanyncarefully took off the necklace around her neck and put it into the tray.
The store manager smiled and asked her, "What do you think, Miss?"
"It's beautiful," Bethany said with heartfelt admiration. It was the first time she had seen such a big blood diamond.
A friend of her teacher, who was a jewelry collector also had a blood diamond, but it was not this red and not this big.
"It's good that you like it, Miss. I will Wrap it up for you” Saying that, the the store manager was about to pick up the tray and go to the cashier to pack it up.
Bethany hurriedly stopped her."Wait. I did not say I wanted it. It's so expensive, so how can I afford it?"
She was quite satisfied that she could try it, but she never thought she would have it.
The manager still kept her smile. "A gentleman has bought Firefox and he has given it to you. So...”
"To me?" Bethany pointed at herself in dismay. "Who is it?".A few faces flashed through her mind.
The manager replied, "It's a the gentleman whose surname is Meyer."
"Meyer? Bethany blinked her eyes.
"Bent Meyer ?"
The store manager did not respond to her and went to pack the diamond with the tray.
A few moments later, Bethany carried a bag and walked out of the jewelry store. She was both happy and in a daze.
She still could not believe that the blood diamond necklace worth tens of millions of dollars belonged to her now!
However, she did not plan to take it.
So she would return it to Bent after the birthday party.
Thinking about this, she exhaled slightly and left the mall.

A few days later, Bent's birthday came.
Since the party was held in the evening, Bethany left her condominium earlier and went to a hotel to change.
When she arrived, many people had already come to the party.She took a cursory glance and found that she did not know anyone. So, she took a glass of wine and walked towards the corner, waiting for the party to start.
After waiting for about ten minutes, she suddenly saw a person. Being a little surprised, she got up and walked towards the man. "Mr. Tennessee"
When the man heard her voice, he ended his conversation with the others and turned around.
"It's you, Ms.Quest "Yes. I did not expect to see you here, Mr. Tennessee." Bethany smiled and extended her hand to him.
He shook her hand. "Yes, I did not expect it either. When did you come back?”
“I Have has been back for almost a month,” she said.
He nodded. "By the way, how is your teacher's health?"
"Same as always. But when I returned, he especially told me that if I saw you, l should ask you to give him the chessboard you lost to him." She looked at him with a seeming smile.
He instantly smiled a bit awkwardly "Ha, next time for sure. Next time for sure"
“Okay, then I will tell my teacher later." She covered her lips and laughed.
Alfred Tennessee was the chairman of the Tennessee Group. He liked to play Golf, just like her teacher. So he and her teacher became friends between generations.
Just when she and Alfred were talking happily, a loving voice came.
"Bethany, you know Mr. Tennessee "
Edward walked over with a glass of wine.
When Bethany saw him, her smile faded. Alfred noticed that she did not welcome the visitor. So he raised his eyebrows. "Ms. Bethany, who is he?"
Before Bethany could answer, Edward took the initiative to say, "I am Danica's father. Hello, Mr. Tennessee "
He extended his hand towards Alfred.But he ignored it.
Edward was a bit embarrassed. But soon he put his hand down and looked at Bethany in a seemingly angry manner. “Bethany, since you know Mr. Tennessee, why don't you tell me more”
", what would you like to know about him that you still haven't known? Moreover, I'm not working as a journalist in your company, Mr. Medina, so why are you looking for me?” Bethany was given a lot of goosebumps by his tone of voice.
She knew that Edward was deliberately acting like a doting person because she knew Alfred.
“I am not looking for you. I am looking for Mr. Tennessee " Edward turnedhis gaze to Alfred and smiled very warmly. "Mr. Tennessee, here is my business card."
He handed over his business card with both hands.
Mr. Tennessee took it. "Chairman of the Medina Group?”
"Yes." Edward nodded his head. Alfred casually dropped the business card into his pocket. "What do you want?"
"Mr. Tennessee, here is the thing. You also know the difficulties my company has been having lately.."
"You want me to finance you?”
Since things came to this point, Alfred understood his intention.
"Yes." Edward nodded.
Edward spent a good deal of money to get the birthday invitation of the Meyer family's eldest son. He did this to look for other companies in charge of financing for help at the party.
Although the Medina Group was saved, there was no longer much cash to keep it running. If this situation continued for long, the Medina Group would still go bankrupt. So he had to cheekily find connections everywhere.
"Mr. Medina, I remember that your daughter seems to be the fiancée of Mr. Meyer, right? If you have such a powerful son-in-law, why don't you ask him for help?" Alfred then thought of something else and looked at Bethany in surprise.
"Ms. Medina is your daughter, so isn't she Mr. Meyer's fiancée?”
"Yes..." Edward admitted with a smile, while secretly giving Bethany a look.
Alfred was known to love his wife and children. He did not like people who had mistresses and illegitimate children.
