Chapter 11 Testing the Authenticity of the Bracelet

Chapter 11 Testing the Authenticity of the Bracelet

When Emmett found that they were about to verify the authenticity of the bracelet, he hurriedly said, "Giselle, just forget it. Florence did not mean to do so either. If we call the police, it will not only ruin her but will also damage the company's image. You can just fire her. Anyway, we have already found the bracelet."

It seemed that Emmett was helping Florence, but Florence found some underlying meanings in his words.

Emmett was afraid. He was also averting them from the most important fact and trying to divert their attention to something less important.

What was he afraid of?

Giselle coldly grunted, "Test it. I want to see how this woman will keep arguing stubbornly with her distorted facts."

When Emmett found that they were about to test it, he was so nervous that he had cold sweat on his forehead.

Heidi took a closer look at the bracelet, and Colleen impatiently asked, "Heidi, how is it?"

Giselle also said, "The bracelet is engraved with my initials and Emmett's, which are at the inner wall of the bracelet."

Heidi frowned, "I don't see any engraved letters, and this bracelet is indeed ..."

"Ms. Sawyer, your bracelet has been found."

At this moment, Hannah from the secretary department came over with an identical bracelet, "I found it in the bathroom. It fell on to the ground and was under the sink. Ms. Sawyer, take a look, is it yours?"

Giselle took a look at the bracelet and saw that it did have letters engraved on the inner side, "This is the bracelet of mine."

This also meant that Florence didn't take Giselle's bracelet.

"Heidi, can I have the bracelet back?" Florence said with a quite polite attitude.

When Colleen found that they could not prove Florence was a thief, Colleen was upset and said coldly and sarcastically, "Florence, though your boyfriend is poor, tell your boyfriend, do not buy something he couldn't afford. He is making a joke here by buying a fake bracelet"

Giselle also said disdainfully, "If it weren't for your vanity of buying an imitation one today, it wouldn't cause such a mess here. What a joke. Florence, your boyfriend is just so-so."

Once she finished her words, and before Florence spoke, Heidi suddenly said, "The bracelet in Ms. Scott's hand is real."

Heidi's words made Colleen and Giselle's expressions change, and the air was suddenly quiet.

Florence was also surprised.

This was just an imitation that was only worth a few hundred, how could it be real?

All the colleagues were dumbfounded, especially the female colleagues.

What an extraordinary boyfriend did Florence have? He was surprisingly generous at buying gifts.

This really made them jealous.

"How is it possible?" Colleen first came back to her senses. She had failed to control her emotions, and her voice was sharp, "Heidi, look more carefully. How can Florence's bracelet be real?"

Giselle also said, "There is only one Heart of the Goddess in the world, and it was bought for me by Emmett for my birthday. Besides, how can Florence afford it?"

Heidi frowned, "I am Feder's assistant. Whether the bracelet is real or not, I can tell its authenticity at a glance. Moreover, it is never possible to engrave any words on the Heart of the Goddess."

Giselle immediately looked at Emmett . At this time, Emmett was already drenched in his cold sweat due to guilt, "Giselle, I...I also have no idea about it either. I entrusted someone to buy it on my behalf. I must be cheated."

How could Emmett expect that he would run into an authentic bracelet so coincidentally while he only bought some bracelet randomly?

Giselle became irritated and smashed the bracelet into Emmett 's face, "Shame on you."

Weren't the sarcastic words she said to Florence just now a loud slap in her own face?

Giselle was eager to find a hole in the ground to hide in there. She really felt ashamed to stay here, so she turned around and stomped away.

"Giselle, Giselle." Emmett chased after her.

Colleen still didn't believe that what Florence was holding was the real bracelet.

It was the Heart of the Goddess worth $8 million, and it was the bracelet she had always wanted. She had used all her connections but still failed to buy it.

How could it have fallen into Florence's hands?

Heidi handed the bracelet back to Florence, "Ms. Scott, please keep it well. This Heart of the Goddess means eternal true love. It seems your boyfriend is very devoted to you. Wish you both happiness."

"Thank you."

Florence didn't believe it was real at all. Maybe they all made a mistake on it.

Colleen gnashed her teeth with jealousy, "Florence, how can your poor boyfriend afford to buy this bracelet? Who gave you this bracelet? And who is the new deep pocket you are fawning over recently?"

The implication was that Florence slept with someone to get it by any means necessary.

"Stop being so arrogant." Florence did not want to talk to Colleen at all, "Last night's lesson is not enough?"

Thinking about last night, Colleen became even more furious.

That was the most humiliating time in her life.

Florence packed her things and left.

Colleen was so angry that she stomped her foot, "Heidi, are you still my friend? How can you speak for the outsiders?"

Heidi knew Colleen was throwing her temper again, and she said, "I'm just sticking to the fact."

Colleen looked in the direction Florence left, and a touch of hatred flashed in her eyes.

She would never let Florence get away with it.

...

Florence didn't rush back. She went to the gift store to buy a gift for Alexander in return.

When she got out of the gift store, she ran into William unexpectedly.

William was talking to a man on the side of the road. He saw Florence, smiled, and walked over, "Ms. Scott, what a coincidence."

Florence smiled slightly, "Yes, what a coincidence. We meet again."

William glanced at the gift in Florence's hand, "A gift for Alexander?"

"He gave me a bracelet this morning. So it's a gift in return."

As Florence spoke, she glanced at an acquaintance and her face turned gloomy.

A man in his fifties walked over with four bodyguards. This person was none other than the Scott family's butler, Archer.

"Miss, Mr. Scott wants you to go back." This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Archer's tone did not show any respect to Florence.

Florence's face was cold, "I'm not going back."

"Mr. Scott heard that you have made some indecent friends and is very angry. It is better for you to go back. Otherwise, he would stop Zachary's medicine due to rage. As for the consequences, Miss, you know it very well."

It was so apparent. Florence knew that it must be Colleen provoking Lincoln.

"How dares he."

How could her father use Zachary to threaten her?

After her mother died, she had no family left in that home except Zachary.

Archer snorted coldly, "Miss, don't make it difficult for us. People of the Tyler family are waiting."

"What do you mean?"

"Mr. Scott has arranged a marriage for you. You are marrying the second young master of the Tyler family."

The second young master of the Tyler family?

"Isn't he a retard?" The one who spoke now was William, and he was a little emotional, "What is Lincoln thinking? Pushing Ms. Scott into the fire? I'm here today, and I'll see who dares to take Ms. Scott away."

Florence also didn't expect that Lincoln had arranged such a marriage for her.

Before, he wanted her to marry a cripple, and now he pushed her to a retard.

Florence was angry and disappointed, "I won't marry him. Whoever wants to marry him, just do it. And I won't go back."

"Then don't blame me." Archer sneered, "Take Ms. Scott back."

William protected Florence, "I'll see who dares."

Archer did not know William at all, and he directly asked the bodyguards he brought here to drag Florence into the car by force.

Archer knew Florence learned some fighting skills, so he brought four bodyguards. Florence's struggle was useless.

William was no match for four people. He saw Florence being dragged into the car and rushed to call his boss, "Sir, something happened. Lincoln wants to marry Ms. Scott to the Tyler family's retarded son. He brought people and took Ms. Scott back by force."

...

In the Scotts’ mansion...

As soon as Florence entered the house, she saw a lot of people sitting in the living room.

Colleen was also there, accompanying the guests.

Allison was smiling and chatting with a noble and rich woman. When she saw Florence coming, she looked so enthusiastic as they were truly mother and daughter. She took Florence's hand to introduce her to the crowd, "This is my eldest daughter, Florence. Just as I said, right? She is very beautiful."

"Very good indeed." The noblewoman nodded in satisfaction.

Colleen said, "Florrie, congratulations, your dad has chosen a great marriage for you. You are really a good match for Mr. Tyler."

Florence coldly argued back, "If you think it's great, then you can marry him."

Lincoln came down from upstairs at this time, accompanied by a middle-aged man, and that was Graham Tyler.

The two of them were talking and laughing.

Lincoln smiled, "Then it's a deal. The Tyler family can just set for the wedding date. We are all fine with it."

"Good, then I'll go back and have someone pick an auspicious date..."

"I have an opinion. I will not marry him." Florence felt very disappointed and angry, "Who says I will marry him?"

Her biased father called her back and pushed her into a disaster again.

He didn't even ask her opinion at all and just settled the marriage.

Lincoln gave Florence a glance, "This is your parents' orders and the matchmaker's persuading words, you have to right to refuse it."

"Since my mother died, you have never taken care of me. So you will never be in charge of my marriage. I will decide whom I will marry."

Lincoln became furious and yelled, "Florence, you grow to be tough now? How dare you talk to me like this? I am your father, how am I not qualified to take charge of you?"

"Am I truly your daughter?" Florence was angry, "I really want to go for a paternity test to see if I am your biological daughter. Even a fierce tiger won't eat its own cubs. There is no father like you in the whole world, since all you did is to push me into the fire..."

"Shut up!" Lincoln was so angry that he raised his hand and slapped her face, "You have to get married even if you don't want to."

The slap was so loud that Florence's face instantly turned red.

Allison and Colleen couldn't be more pleased, and they were in good mood.

At that moment, Archer got into the room in a panic, "Mr. Scott, Mrs. Scott, Mr. Logan is here."

Everyone in the living room froze.

Lincoln and Graham looked at each other with confusion.

The Logan family had already canceled the marriage, what was he doing here at this time?

Moreover, Alexander came here in person, which made Lincoln and the others even more confused.

Rumor said that Alexander rarely showed up in front of people since his face was ruined and his legs were crippled.

But even if the rumors said that this man who was in charge of the Logan family had limited years to live, nobody dared to make themselves an enemy against him.

Florence was also surprised and curious about why Alexander visited them.

Lincoln said to Florence in a stern voice, "You go upstairs first."

Lincoln was worried that Alexander came for Florence. He just settled the marriage deal with the Tyler family, so there mustn't be any accidents. Otherwise, if the company's capital chain went broken, everything would be screwed.

He could not afford to offend the Tyler family.

But he couldn't offend Logan family much more either.

At the entrance of the Scott family, lines of cars were parking there, and dozens of bodyguards got out of the car with uniform movements. They respectfully stood aside, and this scene looked quite imposing.

"How lively it is today at the Scott family."

Though he said with an indifferent tone, his words were fraught with killing intents.

Before he arrived, Florence had already felt the bitter cold air, and it seemed that the temperature in the air also suddenly dropped.

Lincoln hurried to greet him, "Mr. Logan."

Alexander was in a wheelchair, wearing a scar mask on his face. That was a special mask, which was as thin as the wings of the cicada. It attached to the human face, distorted his face, making him look very scary and hideous. It was impossible for anyone to tell his real appearance.

Easton pushed Alexander's wheelchair forward. Today, Easton did not wear a mask, so Florence naturally could not associate the person in front of her with the one from 'Silhouette'.

"Ah!" Colleen was scared by Alexander's hideous face and screamed out loudly. She did not dare to look at his face again, and she closed her eyes and hid behind Allison, "That's too scary."

It was deadly silent in the whole hall.

"Huh?" Alexander's eyes became cold. He threw a harsh stare at Colleen as if he was hurtling a dagger at her.

Lincoln was scared by Colleen's words. His legs kept trembling, "Mr. Logan, my daughter is ignorant, please forgive her. It's all my fault for not disciplining her properly."

This was the man in charge of the Logan family. Was she seeking for her own death? How dared she say that his face was too scary?

Alexander's voice was cold, "Mr. Scott, you have truly failed in disciplining your daughter. Then let me help you teach her."
