Chapter 31 Rosa Martin Was Bullied
Chapter 31 Rosa Martin Was Bullied
"We haven’t been hanging out together for a long time. The last time the three of us went to shopping
together, it was more than six months ago. I thought that we wouldn't get together again, who knows
that we'd come together again."
"Yes. Since something happened with Mrs. Martin’s family, we rarely go for shopping. Recalled the
moments that we agreed to go for shopping every Wednesday, Friday and Sunday. It's been more than
half a year since we went out together!"
The people who were talking were two charming women. Although they were already in their forties,
they were very well-maintained and looked like thirty years old. Rosa and the two women were good
friends. Since Rosa's family had an accident, they hadn’t sought for Rosa.
First, they were afraid that Rosa would borrow money from them. Second, they scared that they would
be downgraded if they went out with Rosa.
Rosa used to be the one they always praised, but now everything was different.
“Rosa, your daughter is really outstanding, to be able to cooperate with Mr. Fraser, the richest man in
the Southwest Region. It is enviable.
“This is called as a wise goose never lays a tame egg.”
Both of them complimented Emily, then Rosa said modestly, "Sophia, Alana, both of you are too kind."
"Hey! By the way, Rosa, the emerald jade on your neck is beautiful, it must be several million." Sophia
said as she looked at the emerald jade around Rosa’s neck.
Rosa said, “This is a gift from my son-in-law.”
“Your son-in-law is so nice. At first, he was even said by the K City citizens as a live-in son-in-law.”
They chatted and walked to the entrance of Jade Pavilion, a famous jewelry shop in K City. It was not
as big as Archibald Elliott’s Dorsett Jewelry Store, but it’s still considered a well-known brand in K City. This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
A product sold was at least several tens of thousands.
“Let’s go in and take a look. I feel my bracelet is a little outdated.
Three of them walked into the Jade Pavilion, Alana and Sophia were looking at those products happily.
While Rosa just took a look on those products, even though she liked it, she dared not say it.
As she didn’t have much money with her right now.
Meantime, the sales manager of Jade pavilion suddenly approached to Rosa and asked, “Madam, can
you please take off the emerald jade from your neck and let us have a look?”
Rosa asked incredulously, “Why do you want to see it?”
The sales manager smiled and said, “Can you take it off and let us have a look? I think that it’s a fine
jade. I just want to see its purity.
Meanwhile, Sophia and Alana both came over. Rosa smiled and took off the emerald jade from her
neck.
After the sales manager took it and studied it for a while, he came to ask Rosa while holding the
emerald jade, “Madam, may I ask where did you buy this jade?”
The sales manager’s tone was blunt and with a questioning look.
Rosa smiled and said, “It was given to me by my son-in-law.”
“Then may I ask where did your son-in-law buy it?” The sales manager asked aggressively.
Rosa shook her head and said, “I, I don’t know.”
“It’s okay. Please wait a moment. I’ll call our boss to come.” The sales manager held the emerald jade
and dialed the boss’s number.
“Hey, Rosa. What’s going on?” Sophia asked in disbelief.
Rosa shook her head and said, “I don’t know, either.”
After a while, the boss of Jade Pavilion, Mr. Ellie Henderson came. He had several hundred million
Yuan of estate. He had a prosperous man look and he was considered as a significant rich man in K
City.
After he took the emerald jade and studied it for a while, he said, “Yes, this is the one. No matter the
purity or the quality, it’s the same. This is it. Definitely.”
“Is this yours?” Ellie was holding the emerald jade while asking Rosa.
Rosa nodded her head and said, “Yes, my son-in-law gave it to me. Is there any problem, Mr.
Henderson?”
“Humph!” Ellie said coldly, “Do you know that how much this emerald jade costs?”
Rosa hesitated for a moment and said, “Maybe several hundred thousand!”
“Several hundred thousand!” Ellie muttered unconsciously.
“Madam Martin, with your current situation, I don’t think you have that much money to buy this emerald
jade.” Ellie said coldly. Of course, he knew Rosa, who used to be a regular customer here.
“Mr. Henderson, what do you mean by that?” Rosa asked as she was puzzled.
Ellie said, “The selling price of this emerald jade in my place here is 10 million Yuan! Few days ago, I
lost a piece of emerald jade which is the same as this one. Do you think that with you or your son-in-
law current situation can afford to buy a 10 million Yuan jade?”
Ellie’s words shocked Rosa. 10 million Yuan! It’s unbelievable.
If this emerald jade worth 10 million Yuan, then Andrew really couldn’t afford to buy it.
There was no need for others to remind her. She was clear about it.
Andrew went to be a soldier for 5 years, so how come he could get the 10 million Yuan. If he really had
10 million Yuan, would he still be staying in that small place with her daughter, sleeping on the sofa
every day?
“Rosa, Mr. Henderson is right. Your son-in-law is just a retired soldier. How come he has so much
money?” Sophia said with a contemptuous look at Rosa.
Alana also shook her head and said, “ I never thought of your son-in-law is that kind of person!”
Rosa felt ashamed. She was poor but she didn’t expect that Andrew would steal a jade.
To be caught on the spot and in front of her friends made her feel so embarrassed.
“Rosa, I’ll now bring you to the police station. How dare you stole from Jade Pavilion.” Ellie grabbed
Rosa’s arm which instantly caused many people gathered around.
On the other side, the company meeting.
Brain Martin, Eden Martin, Hairs Martin and the company’s executives all stayed in the meeting room
for a meeting.
And of course, Emily was also among them, she sat closest to Brain.
Many executives saw Emily. Although Emily was Brian’s granddaughter, she did the most difficult and
tiring work in the company. It was unfathomable that she was now sitting in the meeting room.
Brian took a deep breath and said, "There is an important thing to announce in today’s meeting."
"Wait!" Just as he spoke, Mario rushed into the meeting room.
As soon as Brian saw Mario, he immediately frowned and said, "What are you doing here? Get the hell
out of here."
Mario was not allowed to attend the meeting. He used to sit in on previous meeting.
"Mario, hurry up and get out!" Eden showed a fierce glance towards Mario.
Mario said with a thieving smile, "Grandpa, I have something very important to tell you, and this matter
is also very necessary to be said in front of all the executives and directors."
"Don't give me any nonsense, get out!" Brian scolded.
However, Mario didn’t bother and resolutely pointed at Emily and said, "I want to report that Emily has
misappropriated the company's property without permission."
