GoodReadAs she said, she stopped and looked at Julie, "I heard that Mr. Woods has been busy attracting investment recently. | thought that Mr. Woods might need the help of our company. But look at you, Miss Woods, you could buy a purse worthy of a one hundred and twenty thousand dollars without any hesitation. Maybe your family is not short of money at the moment. Actually, I'm kind of a worrywart." What Scarlett said really touched a raw nerve of Julie. Julie's family was facing a particularly difficult ti n recent months. Centel had been losing money for several months because of poor cash flow.
Julie used to have a credit card with a limit of five million. But since last month, this card had been declined, and so had her monthly pocket money.
It was not easy to maintain decency in the upper-class circle. People from the upper classes of course had to wear the clothes and hair accessories of the season. They should have a few such suits keep up appearances.
Otherwise, when they wore out-of-season clothes every day, it was obvious to know that they were short of money.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtA one hundred and twenty thousand purse was not much for Julie. She would have bought several purses at that price every month in the old days.
But now it was not the sas in the past. She asked the man for the money for the purse.
Hearing such a blunt mockery from Scarlett, Julie's face turned pale in an instant.
But Ethen had warned her that Scarlett was not easy t o mess with, because Scarlett had a connection with Suny of MoCorporation.
"Scarlett, that's very nice of you. I'll tell my father about it." Julie couldn't refuse Scarlett directly and she could only show a smile with her.
Scarlett raised her eyebrow and said, "Oh, sorry, | guess it's none of my business." Scarlett said and glanced at Katherine, who was standing by her, "Katherine, let's go." "Yes, Miss Reed." Seeing they were about leaving, Julie wanted to say more and to chase Scarlett. The friend next to her pulled her, "You are stupid! She didn't want to help your family, she just wanted to laugh at you! Don't worry, | have asked my brother to contact Mr. Lynch o f the YetLeague." In just six months after YetLeague went public last year, its market value doubled and Justin's fortune broke three billion.
Before the company went public, its annual earnings were good. Almost all the large enterprises in Juanton City had good connections with Raymond. Those who were willing to invest money to the Wood family didn't want to offend Raymond, and those who dared t o offend Raymond couldn't bid for Centel.
Centel was now completely a hot potato until now.
So Ethen had interested in Justin and wanted to sell Centel to him. So that he could keep sof his shares and not go bankrupt.
When Julie heard her friend said so, she didn't didn't catch up with Scarlett.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe knew that Scarlett was just being sarcastic. In Julie's case, she had to swallow her pride.
Wendy knew the current situation of the Wood family. Although what Scarlett said was hard to hear, it was also true.
She looked at Julie's new bag and said, "By the way, Julie, who bought you this purse?" Wendy knew clearly whether Julie had the money to buy this expensive bag.
Julie's face froze when she heard her words, but she soon kept calm, "A friend." "A male friend? Wow, he's so generous! It looks like he likes you so much!" Julie didn't want to continue the topic at all and found another topic to move on to.
Boyfriend? If the man was her boyfriend, she didn't have to lose t o Scarlett.
But Julie was afraid to tell the truth. She was just a dirty hwrecker.
