Chapter 365 - Pick It Up!
The Abandoned Husband Dominates
The teddy bear was shining bright like a diamond in the eyes of the shopkeeper as well as the crowd!
If it were on other occasions elsewhere, Jordan might not get such a big reaction after taking out the teddy bear. After all, not everyone recognized it.
Besides, it had nothing to do with money but a niche field of interest.
For example, the wealthiest person in the world may not be able to guess how much a pair of Travis Scott x Air Jordan 1 shoes are worth.
He might guess that it was only worth a couple of hundreds of dollars.
It was the same for the teddy bear. Those who didnât know much may guess that it cost a few thousands of dollars or so at most.
However, the staff here were not ordinary people but sales assistants of the worldâs most expensive toy store. They naturally had the best understanding of the world of luxury toys.
The waitress was shocked. âIs⦠Is this the collaboration piece created by Steiff and Louis Vuitton? Itâs the most expensive teddy bear in the world, right?â
When Chloe saw the teddy bear, she immediately grabbed it with joy. âAh, a teddy bear that has clothes on!â
Lauren too, could not help but reach out and touch the LV clothes that the teddy bear was wearing. When she touched it, Lauren instantly felt the exquisite workmanship.
As the top beauty in DC, Lauren naturally knew the workmanship of Louis Vuitton very well because she had used many of their products.
The other staff members gathered around them and asked, âReally? Is it the teddy bear thatâs worth more than 2 million dollars?ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Two million dollars!
Hearing this price, Chris immediately looked embarrassed!
He had bought so many gifts in this store, but they only added up to more than $200,000!
It was nothing compared to Jordanâs two-million-dollar gift!
Feeling humiliated, Chris immediately snatched the teddy bear from Chloeâs hand and took a look at it before exclaiming, âThis is a counterfeit!â
After saying that, he threw it into the distance. The teddy bear that was worth more than two million dollars was thrown to the ground by Chris!
âChris Hank, you must have a death wish! Pick the teddy bear up immediately!â Jordan hollered in exasperation.
âIâll pick it up, Iâll pick it up!â
The service staff immediately said.
However, Jordan rebuked, âNone of you pick it up. I want him to pick it up himself!â
However, Chris retorted fearlessly, âWhy should I pick up a counterfeit that costs a few hundred or even a few dozens of dollars?â
Jordan said furiously, âWhat makes you so sure that itâs counterfeit? Can you tell the difference?â
Chris said, âI canât, but I know you donât even have the money for a cab fare. Youâre just a security officer who definitely canât afford a gift of over two million dollars!â
Lauren interjected at this moment, âMaybe itâs a gift that Jordan bought a long time ago.â
Chris thought about it and said, âNo, his assets have been frozen. Itâs impossible for him to bring this out. This must be a counterfeit. If itâs authentic, he would have sold it for money instead of giving it to Chloe.â
âSeriously, Chloe is my daughter. How can I possibly sell her gift for money!?!â
âChris really likes to project his shortcomings on others!â
Jordan said furiously, âIâll count to three. Pick up the teddy bear, otherwise, donât blame me for laying a hand on you!â
Chris also clenched his fist and retorted, âCome on, win the fight and go to jail. Lose the fight and go to the hospital. I can accept either of the results, but you canât!â
Lauren did not want the two of them to fight and thus said to Chris, âChris, youâre at fault, for this matter. How can you throw away the gift Jordan gave to Chloe? You have to go pick it up.â
Facing Laurenâs overbearingness, Chris said, âUnless that is a real teddy bear worth more than two million, why should I bend down for a counterfeit?â
Lauren looked at the service staff and asked, âCan you verify the authenticity of that toy?â
Lauren believed Jordan wouldnât lie, so she requested them to inspect the toy and verify its authenticity.
The waitress shook her head and said, âOur store manager often travels around the world and has seen a lot of luxury goods. She can definitely distinguish it. She will be here soon. Why donât you wait for a while?â
After about ten minutes, a woman in her thirties, who was wearing delicate light makeup and a suit, stepped forward.
She was decked out in designer labels, and she was obviously wealthy. Besides, she had quite a domineering gait, which made her feel like a queen.
âWhere is Jamie Steele?â
The woman asked the service staff as soon as she entered.
âHeâs that gentleman in the black jacket,â the service staff answered as he pointed at Jordanâs back.
The woman walked over quickly and smacked Jordan on his head before he could even turn around.
âYou heartless jerk. Iâm surprised youâre here!â
Jordan turned around with some surprise and saw a mature and charming middle-aged woman, only to be bewildered.
âYouâre Miss Monroe?â
Jordan asked.
Miss Monroe was stunned for a while when she saw Jordan. âWho are you? Why do you have Jamieâs Super Diamond membership card?â
Jordan explained, âOh, Jamie is my brother.â
A smile immediately appeared on Miss Monroeâs charming face and she said, âOh, so youâre Jamieâs brother. That jerk keeps bragging about being the most handsome one compared to his brothers, but heâs obviously not as handsome as you!â
Jordan was a little embarrassed and he could see that this graceful Miss Monroe should have an unusual relationship with Jamie.
Jordan said, âMiss Monroe, youâre here in time. Iâd like to ask you to verify whether the teddy bear I bought is authentic or not.â
Miss Monroe saw the teddy bear that was placed on the ground and immediately scurried over with some heartache.
âHey, this teddy bear is the collaborative product between Steiff and Louis Vuitton, right? This is worth more than two million dollars. Whatâs wrong with you people? Are you going to let a customerâs item thatâs worth more than 2 million dollars stay on the ground? Donât you know how to pick it up!?â
Jordan said, âDonât blame them. I told them not to pick it up. Please confirm if it is authentic.â
Miss Monroe touched the LV fabric, carefully scrutinized the workmanship of the teddy bear, and then said, âItâs 100% authentic. Iâve been to Steiff. This teddy bear is produced by their company.â
Jordan nodded and said, âOkay, thank you, Miss Monroe. You can put the teddy bear down.â
âDo I put it on the ground?â Miss Monroe asked in confusion.
âYes.â Jordan affirmed, pointed at Chris and then at the teddy bear. âPick up the teddy bear!â
Chris naturally did not want to do such a lowly thing in front of so many people!
He could only blame it on the fact that his subordinates didnât follow him in. Otherwise, he could have made them do it.
Seeing how hesitant Chris was, Jordan said, âIf you donât want to pick it up, thatâs fine. You threw something thatâs worth over two million dollars onto the ground and dirtied the clothes of the teddy bear. It wonât be overboard for me to charge you 200,000 dollars for damages, right?â
âIâll give you two choices.. You either give me 200,000 dollars in cash or go pick the toy up!â
