The appraiser looked troubled, “Miss, the style is correct, anil it’s a high quality replica, but when Glima, the desigurt, creates stamp mcbaded in the design.”

The appraiser spoke rapidly, and Leah’s face turned pale instantly
How could this bet
She really spent over a hundred thousand to buy it through a proxy!
But the more shocking revelation was yet to come,
“Miss Jenkins’s dress is genume, created by designer Glima, and it’s from the latest minimalist collection; I found the stamp,”
The appraiser looked towards Anna, clearly envious, “Miss Jenkins, how did you manage to obtain this? It’s not only worth millions on the market, but it’s also nearly impossible to acquire!”
Leah
Only Arthur remained composed, gazing at Anna and growing increasingly curious and interested.
“But unfortunately, it’s damaged.”
Anna raised an eyebrow, looking at the pale–faced Leah. Her previous arrogance had disappeared, replaced by a defeated and subdued demeanor, making her unrecognizable.
“However, even in its damaged state, it’s still a work by designer Glima, extremely difficult to acquire, a real pity!”
The appraiser sighed repeatedly.
“Have you got your answer? Can you compensate now?” Anna squinted her exquisite eyes. “Don’t worry, I won’t go by the inflated price; fifty thousand will suffice.”
Leah was close to te

Anna folded her slender and fair hands across her chest, hamming lightly. “What’s owed must be paid, not a penny less.”
Leal reached out and pinched Laura.
She didn’t expect Anna to be so assertive. This Anna was entirely different from the one she knew before!
“Anna. I know you’re angry right now. Let me apologize first. Hut we’re all friends after all, and we shouldn’t escalate this matter…

Anna coldly interrupted her. With a sardonic smile, she said, “Do you think your apology is worth fifty thousand, or is our relationship worth fifty

Laura hadn’t expected Anna

Her pupils contracted suddenly, and she didn’t know what to say.
She felt extremely uncomfortable and nervous.
She never expected Anna to be so adept at handling confrontations!
But Arthur showed no reaction at all, just playing with his lips with a hint of amusement.
“Since you can’t speak, let’s go with the money then. I’ll do a good deed.”
Anna emphasized the words “good deed heavily, “Considering Miss Parker here spent a hundred thousand on a high quality replica, she should compensate forty thousand for this dress. Any lower, and I won’t accept it.”
Leah stamped her foot in frustration.

“Alright, Laura is so straightforward. Here’s my account I

Anna quickly wrote down her account number. “I hope Miss Jenkins can be prompt; I don’t want to involve a lawyer in pursuing this.”
Laura,
She felt like she was suffering from internal injuries from Anna’s words!
“And thank you, Mr. Reynolds, for being a witness in your busy schedule.” Anna expressed her gratitude to Arthur before elegantly leaving the appraisal center in her high heels.
This was the first time she had crossed swords with Laura since returning to the United States
It felt great.
A complete victory!
Laura’s gaze gradually turned sinister. This was not the Anna she knew at all!
“Laura, thank you so much. I could have compensated the money, but I never expected Anna to be like this, faking her death and using this matter to embarrass us!”
Leah looked very grateful.
if she had
Thinking about what had just happened, Laura tightened her grip on her hand, feeling a surge of anger when she saw Leah looking as if gained an advantage.
If it weren’t for Arthur watching nearby, would she have helped this foolish girl?
Dream on!
On the other side.
Anna arrived at the amusement park
and found Mason and Jeremy happily riding the merry go round under the guidance of Caleb.
She couldn’t hide the sunile on her li
lips.
Jeremy couldn’t either: Arthur had never seen such a smile on his face.
He glanced at Anna, and his lips unconsciously curled up.

“Mommy
After the merry–go–round ride, Mason, holding Jeremy’s hand, ran over to Anna and Arthur. The two children tightly held onto Anna’s dress.
“Momuny, you’re finally here! And you’re with this Uncle, are you on a date?”
Mason blinked at Anna, heavily implying something.
“Silly, it’s obvious that Mommy left us behind and went on a date, Caleb chimed in, unfazed. He could sense that his Arthur was quite interested in
Anna.
“Hey. Mommy, how did your clothes get torn on a date?”
Mason pointed at the button on Anna’s clothes, which had been cut by the bag, furrowing his brow
Caleb
was shocked. Her clothes were torn?
When had his Arthur become so barbaric? Could it be that after all these years of being a lone wolf, he had suddenly fallen for a girl and become a bi savage?
Caleb was truly astonished!
“Arthur, even if you’re going on a date, you can’t ruin a girl’s clothes like this. This, this is unacceptable!
He couldn’t help but feel like he was about to have a sister in law.
