Chapter 898 - 898: Fifty-Two Million
Why didn't the shop assistant bring out the dress sooner!Such a beautiful dress, it's such a waste to let Aurelia Shaw, that little wretch, wear it!
However, she's already boasted in front of the shop assistant, saying she'll cover the bill, now if she goes back on her word, it would be so embarrassing.
Anyway, she's the one paying. Once they're out the door, she can put the dress in her car and then have someone buy a tacky dress to send to Aurelia Shaw. Problem solved.
With her mind made up, Jovana Shaw smiles and says, "No need to try it on, sister has such a great figure, it will surely fit perfectly."
Watching Jovana Shaw's eyes almost fall onto the dress, Aurelia Shaw coldly curls her lips, "Bring it in, I'll try it on."
She turns around and enters the fitting room.
Jovana Shaw clenches her fist in hatred.
Aurelia Shaw walks out in the gown, deep blue like the starry night, diamonds of various sizes shine like a brilliant galaxy. Stunning, beautiful, her long hair like seaweed drapes down her back, her bare back reveals the pretty butterfly bones, a beauty that is mesmerizing.
Leo Campbell is momentarily captivated.
Jovana Shaw's eyes flash with jealousy, instinctively tightening her grip on Leo Campbell's arm, afraid that he might be seduced away by Aurelia Shaw, that vixen.
Sure enough, a vixen!
This dress absolutely cannot go to Aurelia Shaw!
"Leo, hurry and pay for sister's dress." Jovana Shaw pushes Leo Campbell, her tone pleasant, but a flash of calculation in her eyes goes unnoticed.
"Right, right..." Leo Campbell, dazed, takes out his credit card and hands it to the shop assistant. As the assistant reaches to take it, he remembers to ask, "How much is this dress?"
"Fifty-two million."
"What did you say?" Leo Campbell suddenly freezes, "Fif-fifty million?"
Jovana Shaw's eyes also widen, "It's just a dress, is it really that expensive? Don't think just because we don't come here often, you can exploit new customers like us."
"I would never do that," the shop assistant shakes his head fearfully, "Every dress here has a clearly marked price. Our regular customers know that the gowns here are worth what they're priced at.
This dress is particularly valuable because it was custom-made by Master Night specifically for Miss Shaw.
Every diamond on it is uncut, naturally formed with beautiful facets, this dress is also known as 'Night Sky'.
Even just these diamonds far exceed this price, but since Master Night provided the diamonds, we only charged a labor fee, which is why this is the amount."
Jovana Shaw's face looks grim.
Leo Campbell's face looks even grimmer. He wanted to play the hero in front of a beauty, but never imagined he'd have to spend this much. His monthly allowance is only twenty million.
"Mr. Campbell, I really like this dress," Aurelia Shaw sighs, then continues, "But if it's too much trouble, I'll pay for it myself, I can understand."
The woman's smile pierces his chest like a needle in mockery, Leo Campbell grits his teeth and tosses the card to the shop assistant, "If I said I'd pay, then I will. Use my card."
"Leo!" Leo Campbell falls for the beauty trap, but Jovana Shaw, she's not crazy.
Leo Campbell's money will be hers one day.
She wanted to embarrass Aurelia Shaw, to make things difficult, but she's not foolish enough to be cheated out of so much money.
"This isn't a small amount, you're spending so much on her dress, if my aunt finds out..." Jovana Shaw secretly reminds Leo Campbell.
