Chapter 1465
All this while, Vanessa had never believed that her piece was the real Ocean Star. What Yvette offered her was completely beyond her expectation. "Miss Spencer, are you really going to buy this necklace at this price? Aren't you afraid that you'll suffer losses?"
Yvette said, "What's wrong? You don't feel like selling it?"
In fact, Vanessa was a little reluctant to sell this necklace. After all, it was her favorite among the gifts Julien had given her. However, thinking about Lawrie who was in the hospital, she had no choice but to sell it. She said, "It's not that I don't want to sell it, I just don't want you to lose money."

It was worth more than one hundred million dollars but not only Vanessa was willing to sell it at such a low price, she was actually worried that Yvette would get the short end of the stick. Was she stupid, or did she not know how rich Julien was? Could it be that she did not believe that the gifts Julien had given her were actually something?
Yvette added, "I've been in this industry for so many years now, I know what I'm doing. As for you, do you really want to sell it to me for 300,000 dollars? Aren't you afraid that you will be on the losing side instead?"
Vanessa asked in reply, "Am I?"
Yvette did not know how to answer her.
How was she supposed to answer this question?
She couldn't be saying that she had secretly informed the actual buyer of this necklace, could she?
Vanessa added, "Miss Spencer, could you please quote a price for the other items as well?"
Yvette said, "Miss Love, can I ask you something irrelevant? But of course, I'm just asking, you can choose not to answer."
Vanessa asked, "What is it, Miss Spencer?"
Yvette said, "To tell you the truth, these jewelry and evening gowns are high- end products. They are definitely worth more than the price I've offered you, but you're still willing to sell them off. May I ask if you're in need of money? Why do you need so much money?"
Since Yvette was just an outsider, Vanessa thought that she had nothing to hide from her, so she said, "I need money to pay for a child's medical treatment." "A child's treatment?" Yvette tone ascended.
"Miss Love, you look so young but you have a kid already?"
Whose child was it?
Could it be that Vanessa and Julien had secretly given birth to the next successor of the Kyle family?
Vanessa did not want to lie, but when she saw Yvette's expression, she was afraid that this matter would get exposed. She quickly covered up. "No, not my child. It's my best friend's son. They really need the money for the treatment, so I'm just trying to help them as much as I can."
Yvette patted her chest and said, "That's right. It's impossible that you have a child. You definitely scared me, Miss Love."
Vanessa did not understand. "But why do you think that it's impossible for me to have a child though?"
"Because you're Young Master Julien's fiancee, aren't you? I don't think Young Master Julien would ever marry a woman who has a child, right?"
Yvette thought so in her heart, but what she said to Vanessa was completely different. She said, "Because you look like you're in your early twenties at most. You don't look like someone who has a child at all."
Vanessa did not want to talk about her personal matters anymore, so she tried to change the subject, "Miss Spencer, could you please take a look at these jewelleries and dresses, and see how much they are worth?"
"Okay, I'll quote a price for you now." Then, Yvette began to put forward a quotation for each of the items that Vanessa had brought over.
Although the rest were not as expensive as Ocean Star, the cheapest item was still worth at least a million. The total came to at least ten million dollars, but Yvette had only paid a million for everything. Even so, Vanessa seemed like she was quite satisfied with the offer.
Vanessa had been saving for two years now and barely even had a million in her bank account. Now that she had easily gotten a million by selling these items, how could she not be happy? This million could easily support her and Lawrie for quite some time.
After receiving the bank transfer notification, Vanessa walked out of the store with a brisk pace.
She looked up at the sky. It was a clear and sunny day, just like how she was feeling at that moment.
It was true that, in the end, things will mend. God would not be that cruel to shut all the way out. As the saying goes, when God closes the door, He opens a window.
The moment Vanessa thought that she finally had the money to pay for Lawrie's treatment, she was so happy that she could not help but show it on her face. The corners of her red lips were curved into a bright smile.
Vanessa's naturally good features made her smile look even brighter than the sun.
She made a cheering gesture and cheered herself up. "Keep it up, Vanessa Love. All the bad things will eventually come to an end. Everything will definitely get better."
Needless to say, Vanessa did not know that the man in the car not far away was observing her every move.
It had been a long time since he had ever seen her smiling like this. It seemed like only money could make her happy from the bottom of her heart.
To Vanessa, the mighty Julien Glover Kyle, was nothing compared to that sum of money. After watching Vanessa leave, Julien got off the car and walked towards Yvette's store.
Yvette was surprised by his presence, but she immediately realized that he was not here for her but because of Vanessa, who had just left. At that instant, the smile on Yvette's face became slightly stiff as she said, "Hey, Julien, what brings you here?"
Julien glimpsed across the store and asked, "Where's the stuff?"
Yvette knew exactly why Julien was here. He was so frank and didn't even bother to greet her, so Yvette was a little dejected. "It's such a trivial matter, so you could have asked your assistant to handle it, or I'll just get someone to send them over to you. You need not have come all the way here to collect them yourself."
Julien said, "How much did she get?"
Yvette said, "She sold everything to me for one million dollars."
Julien did not make any comment in regard to the price, but asked again, "Did she tell you why she needed the money?"
Yvette said, "If you want to know, why don't you ask her yourself? Even if you don't ask her, you have all the connections, don't you? I'm sure you'll be able to find it out in less than thirty minutes."
Julien pricked up his brows. "I'm asking you."
If Julien wanted to look into it, he would have done it a long time ago. However, he thought that if he liked her, he should give her freedom and respect her personal space. It would be disrespectful to do a background check on her. However, he had failed to realize that what he had done was even more hurtful than just being disrespectful.
While Yvette was asking her employees to pack up the items that Vanessa had just sold to her, she said, "She said that she had a friend and her son was sick, so she was trying to help them out financially. I don't know whether it's true. I didn't ask much about it."
A friend's son?
Julien immediately thought of the little boy who called him a big bad guy on the phone.
Vanessa did talk about the little boy too.
Could it be that she was not at home the night before because she was taking care of that ill child?
If that was the case, why didn't she make it clear to him? If she had told him, he would surely give her the money to help the child.
Only a foolish woman would carry everything on her shoulders and not ask any help from anyone.
