Chapter 577 Have You Encountered a Scam?
Ulysses patted her hand, "Hmm, I'm here."
He then looked at Charlotte, "What did you just say? My girlfriend's purse is fake? What makes you say that?"
Charlotte felt a bit uncomfortable seeing his unfriendly tone and cold gaze.
It wasn't sadness, just a sense of disparity.
After all, Ulysses had confessed to her before.
How long has it been, and he already likes another girl, looking at her so coldly.
She angrily said, "What makes me say that? Her purse is fake, everyone knows it, why can't I say it!"
Ulysses directly said, "This purse can be verified at the store; it's not fake. I don't know where you heard such things to embarrass my girlfriend, but I'm telling you today, don't say such things again."
Before Charlotte could say anything, Isadora laughed.
She had seen many people selling fake goods, all claiming to offer ten times the compensation for fakes and supporting store verification.
Actually, those selling fakes just said that, and buyers just listened.
Real purses cost tens of thousands of dollars, fake ones cost a few hundred dollars, who didn't know it was fake?
So when she heard Ulysses say that, Isadora wanted to laugh.
Ulysses couldn't help but look at her. "What's so funny?"
Isadora didn't care about the question, she said, "Nothing, let's go."
Ulysses naturally followed her, "Okay, what do you want to eat?"
Seeing them act as if no one else were around, Charlotte felt even more uncomfortable for some reason.
She raised her voice, "I heard that purse was bought by you for Isadora. If you don't have money, don't pretend to be rich, buying a fake purse and claiming it's real! Isn't that embarrassing!"
Isadora was immediately displeased. "Who are you talking about? Can you look at yourself before talking about others? What? Can you afford it? You can't even afford it, so why are you talking about others?"
Charlotte's face turned red with anger. "I can't afford it, but I didn't buy a fake one!"
Ulysses frowned, "I said, it's not fake!"
Charlotte sneered, "You believe the lies others tell you?"
Ulysses said, "How could it be a lie? This purse was bought by my family..."
Isadora said, "Forget it, let's not talk about this, why bother with her, let's go!"
But Charlotte continued, "What, running away because you can't win the argument? Isadora, you know it's embarrassing, right? Buying a fake purse and not daring to admit it."
"I said, the purse is not fake." Ulysses was getting impatient. "Why are you like this?"
Before Charlotte could speak, Isadora said, "Can we not discuss this issue?"
Ulysses said, "But she's wrong."
"Whether she's right or wrong, what does it have to do with us? She's just jealous, who cares!"
Charlotte was furious, "Fake is fake, what am I jealous of! He can't even afford a purse, what am I jealous of? Am I crazy to be jealous!"
"I think you are crazy!" Isadora retorted, "So what if it's fake! I like fake ones! What business is it of yours!"
Ulysses pulled her aside, "It's not fake, it's real."
Isadora said, "Whatever!"
"Of course, it's whatever to you!" Charlotte said, "Because you don't care if the purse is real or fake. But Ulysses, isn't this meaningless? It's obviously fake, we all know it's fake, why do you keep insisting it's real? Is it fun?"
Ulysses still didn't understand what was going on.
He didn't want to explain anymore, he took out his phone and called Nicole, "Grandma, can you give me the after-sales number for the purse you bought?"
Hearing him call his grandma, the classmates around couldn't help but laugh.
So the purse was bought by Ulysses' grandma?
The old lady must have been scammed!
Thinking of an old person buying a luxury purse, everyone couldn't help but laugh at the imagined scene.
But Nicole seriously gave Ulysses a number.
Ulysses ignored the laughter around him, called the number, and explained the situation.
The other side asked for basic information and quickly said, "Do you want to come to the store, or do you need us to come to you?"
Ulysses asked, "Can you come to the school?"
The other side gave a positive answer.
Ulysses hung up, "You want a result? Fine, if you have the patience, wait for half an hour."
"Are they really coming?"
"What's wrong with Ulysses? What call did he make?"
"I just saw, he called the number on the brand's official website!"
"So, he really doesn't know the purse is fake?"
"If they really come, won't he be humiliated?"
Isadora also heard the discussions around.
She didn't care if the purse was real or fake, but she definitely didn't want Ulysses to be laughed at by so many people.
She said, "The purse was bought by your grandma, it's a token of her affection, it doesn't need to be verified."
"It needs to be." Ulysses said, "My grandma's affection can't be misunderstood or underestimated."
Charlotte sneered, "Fine, it's after school anyway, we'll wait, let's see if you still insist when they come!"
Isadora pulled him aside and whispered, "Why do you have to do this? I know your grandma's affection, that's enough."
Ulysses said, "I asked my grandma to help buy the purse for you. Sheknows it's for you, I can't let them say it's fake and make you uncomfortable."
Isadora thought for a moment and confessed, "Actually, I told them the purse is fake."
Ulysses was shocked, "Why?"
"Sorry." Isadora said, "Actually, I don't care if it's real or fake, I... I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said that to others."
"But, why?"
Isadora closed her eyes, "Because I know, you can't afford it! Do you know how much this purse costs?"
"I really don't know." Ulysses said, "Because my grandma paid for it, I haven't asked her."
"This purse costs three to four hundred thousand dollars, and you can't buy it domestically."
"I know, that's why my grandma bought it abroad."
Isadora opened her eyes. "Your grandma bought it abroad?"
"Yes." Ulysses nodded, "Because you can't buy it domestically, so my grandma asked someone to buy it abroad. Not just for you, she also bought one for my aunt and my dad's wife."
Isadora was shocked, "Bought three?"
She couldn't even get one, and Ulysses' grandma bought three at once?
So, did she encounter a scam organization?
No, it was hundreds of thousands of dollars, three would be over a million dollars, how was that possible?
Isadora still didn't suspect if Ulysses' family was rich.
The verification staff arrived faster than everyone expected.
They didn't know that Nicole was a high-level VIP customer, a big client the brand needed to maintain.
So when there was a problem with her purchase, they naturally came quickly.
They were dressed in uniform work clothes, carrying professional verification tools.
