Chapter 878

Practically everyone in the fashion industry knew the social status of a private customized Ebenezer among luxury goods.

‘A custom-made Ebenezer is worth even more than all the bags in my house. Scratch that; the value of this bag cannot even be measured with money. It’s a one-and-only fashion item that has an enormous collection value. If Stella’s bag is genuine, I practically embarrassed myself by shamelessly boasting about giving her the bags,’

she thought.

Meanwhile, Yolanda was still shouting.

“Can’t the code be faked? Nine out of ten of Ebenezer the Prodigy’s bags online are fake. Who knows if hers is a realistic imitation?”

Timothy frowned and said lowly, “Madam Fenley, you bought that Cartier bracelet on your wrist from Mrs. Fell, didn’t you?”

Yolanda was taken aback. She covered her bracelet out of reflex and said with a slightly flustered expression, “What nonsense are you spouting? My bracelet is brand new!”

“Only two pieces of this model were sold in Rivera; one is with Ms. Moore, while Mrs.

Fell bought the other. Mrs. Fell’s family has been facing some problems with their flow of funds, so they’ve sold quite some things to me. I appraised this bracelet of hers at 260,000 dollars. However, she thought this was not a good price, so she didn’t sell it.

Judging from the color of this bracelet, she must have refurbished and sold it. She must’ve asked for 300,000 dollars or more, right?” he said as he grabbed Yolanda’s wrist.

Then, he looked at it up and down and said, “It does look better after being refurbished. However, it’s harder to sell a bracelet at a higher price once it’s been refurbished.”

His words implied Yolanda had gotten ripped off.

At first, Yolanda remained stubborn. However, the more she listened to Timothy, the more she paled.

This was because Timothy’s words had hit the mark. She bought the bracelet from Mrs. Fell for 300,000.

‘Back then, Mrs. Fell told me she wanted 350,000, but I thought it was too expensive.

After persuading her for a week, she finally budged and sold it to me for 300,000.

However, we traded in private instead of appraising it on a platform. I thought Mrs. Fell didn’t want to pay the intermediary fees at the time. I sneered at her miserly actions and thought a rich woman like her was merely a cheapskate. Looking back now, she didn’t do so because she wanted to save money but because she was worried the appraiser would discern something! I thought I had gotten a steal, but who would’ve known I had gotten massively ripped off?’ thought Yolanda.

Yolanda was so furious that she was practically fuming. So, she did not have the time to defend Bella.

Timothy had a tactful character. Most people who traded with him were from the fashion industry or celebrities; he usually treated everyone with respect as long as they did not offend him.

For instance, he saw Bella the moment he entered. Even though he knew she had bought the bag from Stella, he did not expose her. This was because that was his rule of conduct. However, Timothy was angry with the way Yolanda continuously questioned his expertise.
