“Wow! This is a small gift? I saw a smaller jade necklace in a jewelry store a few days ago. It costs tens of thousands. This one looks even better.” A girl’s eyes lit up as she looked at the jade necklace.
“So expensive, Mr. Shaw. It must cost more than 100, 000 yuan!” A man exclaimed.
“Mr. Shaw, it seems that you are proposing to Dayanara,” Another beautiful girl said with a wry expression.
Facing Blake’s courtesy, Dayanara was unhappy.
“Dayanara, I just want to express my affection. I have no other intention,” Blake said gracefully with a smile.
“Dayanara, just accept the gift.”
“Yeah, I’m so jealous of you. Mr. Shaw, why didn’t you send me a necklace?”
“As far as I recall, Mr. Shaw used to be persistent in pursuing Dayanara back in high school.”
The group of girls all had a wry expression and started jeering.
The corners of Blake’s lips curled into a successful smile. This was what he wanted.
“Blake, thank you for your kindness, but I won’t accept your gift,” Dayanara said seriously.
“Dayanara, let me put it on for you. At least give it a try. As a jewelry designer, you like this necklace, right?” Blake smiled as he slowly picked up the necklace and walked towards Dayanara.
He looked at Dayanara’s delicate skin, and his eyes revealed a trace of greed.
Back in high school, he had always yearned for Dayanara, who was the most beautiful girl in their school, but all his pursuits had failed.
He would not let go of any chance to pursue Dayanara.
Dayanara felt extremely uncomfortable, but because everyone present was her high school classmates, it was not good for her to get angry.
Blake was forcing her to accept the gift.
“Dayanara said she didn’t want your gift. Don’t you understand?”
Alberto stood up and reached out to block Blake. He looked expressionlessly at Blake.
“Assistant Alberto, what do you mean?” Blake frowned and looked coldly at Alberto.
“I’m giving a gift to your director. How dare a little assistant try to stop me?” Blake said arrogantly and angrily, “How dare you? It’s your honor to be in this private room. I’m Dayanara’s high school classmate. What’s your status? Why are you here to make decisions for Dayanara?”
As the general manager of Sunrise Construction Company, he had a company with tens of millions of assets in his hands, so he was of higher social class.
Not to mention that his father was also a big shot in the construction industry in Auton. He had a very rich family.
He thought that he was at least a handsome rich man, and he deserved to be the partner of a woman from the Mcconnells.
He didn’t even dread Dayanara, the director of the Mcconnell Group.
How dare this assistant retort. He was reckless.
“I’m Dayanara’s husband. Keep this defective necklace to yourself,” Alberto said indifferently.
“What! You are Dayanara’s husband?”
“I heard that the Mcconnells got a useless son-in-law. Could it be him? No wonder that people said he was useless. He is working as an assistant for Dayanara now.”
“So, he is the famous useless son-in-law of the Mcconnells. How dare he follow Dayanara as an assistant?”
All of a sudden, the people in the private room heckled and mocked Alberto mercilessly. Obviously, they had all heard about Alberto being the Mcconnells’ son-in-law.
Blake was shocked for a moment. Then a look of extreme disdain appeared on his face.
“So, you are the famous Alberto. I heard that you lived on the Mcconnells sin you got married with Dayanara. You’ve really disgraced us men!” Blake sneered, “So, Alberto, are you jealous? You can’t afford the expensive jade necklace, and you don’t want others to buy it for Dayanara?”
The people in the private room all mocked Alberto and came to Blake’s defense.
After all, Blake was the richest one of their high school classmates. To them, he was a young and promising rich man. Being friend with him may bring some benefits to them.
Alberto shook his head and said, “This jade necklace of is covered with a layer of chemicals. It is just a piece of jade of inferior quality inside the layer. The maximum price of it is two to three thousand yuan. You said that it cost you more than a hundred thousand yuan. That’s ridiculous.”
When Blake opened the gift box, Alberto could already tell that this jade necklace was a defective product. It was shoddily produced and sold in high price. It was covered with a refined layer and looked like a top-grade jade. But in fact, it was a common item on the market.
Originally, he didn’t intend to expose it, but Blake was actually so shameless.
It was fine if he wanted to pursue Dayanara in front of him. After all, he was confident with himself. But Blake actually wanted to touch Dayanara. He even took out a piece of inferior product to show off here and mock him.
“What did you say? You said my necklace was defective?” Blake’s eyes panicked for a moment. Then he became furious and berated Alberto crazily.
“You are so devious. The jade necklace cost me 130, 000 yuan. You can’t afford it yourself, so you want to frame me,” Blake said angrily. He looked at Dayanara with a regretful expression, “Dayanara, it’s such a pity that you marry such a despicable and shameless man. This kind of person will make you lose face and cause you to suffer for the rest of your life.”
“That’s right! Listen to what Alberto said. This person is so devious! He couldn’t afford the jade as Mr. Shaw did, so he just framed Mr. Shaw.”
“Mr. Shaw is a millionaire. Can’t he afford a high-grade jade necklace? Alberto was not only useless, but sinister. How disgusting he is!”
The two men who ridiculed Alberto seemed to be the lapdogs of Blake.
“Alberto, stop embarrassing Dayanara. I told you to stop talking nonsense. You are not only useless but making a fool of yourself,” Crystal said with an expression of hatred. She was also blaming Alberto.
Alberto’s gaze was cold as he glanced at Crystal.
Crystal wanted to teach him a lesson, but when she met Alberto’s sharp gaze, she couldn’t help but shut her mouth, feeling fearful.
Alberto seemed to be different today.
The door of the private room was suddenly kicked open.
A fierce young man with tattooed arms carried a skinny man and walked in with a furious expression.
“Who is his friend? Damn it, he was totally drunk and dared to pour wine on my face,” The man said fiercely, “who has brought him here? Step out now!”
