Chapter 7 Do You Deserve It?
Staring at Victoria's sad face, Maximilian felt quite uncomfortable, then he replied,
"That's right. The man who ordered Caesar Palace is......"
Suddenly, a bright and clear male voice sounded from aside, interrupted Maximilian's words.
"Victoria, there you are. I've been looking for you for ages."
Then a handsome young man dressing in a decent white suit ran towards them, with a large bouquet of red roses in his hands.
Travis Hart, the young master of Hart Family, was a second generation rich with personal assets over tens of millions of dollars. Currently, he ran a small company of his own, and was considered a promising young talent in H City.
Travis was a crazy suitor of Victoria. Even though Victoria had already married for years, he still sent her gifts and invitations for dinner from time to time.
However, Victoria refused him every time.
"Victoria, it's for you. I just bought it."
Travis handed the large bouquet of roses in his hand to Victoria, who smiled faintly after wiping off tears from her eyes.
"Thank you, but I can't accept it."
As she spoke, her gaze fixed on Maximilian. Had he ever sent her any flowers during the past four years?
Well, it was just a bouquet of flowers, but Maximilian had never bought any for Victoria.
Only then did Travis notice Maximilian. Immediately, his face turned ghastly and he sneered,
"Well, it is Maximilian."
How could the well-known wimp be qualified to marry Victoria, a divinely beauty?
Travis's heart was filled with hatred of Maximilian.
Maximilian furrowed his arrow brows slightly, and then glanced at Travis before saying,
"Are you sending flowers to my wife again?"
Travis tugged on his tie, and the corner of his mouth curled slightly upward as he responded with arrogance,
"What are you trying to say? I'll definitely impress Victoria one day, and you? You don't deserve to be with her."
With that, he turned around and took out a small exquisite box from his pocket like performing conjuring magic.
Then he opened the box, revealing a dazzling diamond-encrusted necklace.
"Victoria, this is the latest release of Cartier Jewelry, the Heavenly Fairy Star Diamond Collection. However, I can only afford the basic item for six hundred thousand dollars.”
“When I make more money, I'll definitely buy you the most expensive one, the Hundred Flower Fairy for thirty million dollars."
Travis said it sincerely, and stared at Maximilian with condescending eyes after he finished.
Despite Travis’s current status, he was at least able to buy the necklace for six hundred thousand dollars!
What about Maximilian? He couldn’t even afford it in his lifetime!
Victoria’s face was clouded with embarrassment, and then she said, "Travis, thank you for your kindness. I can't accept it, since it...... is so expensive."
Victoria had heard of Cartier's new diamond necklaces, the Heavenly Fairy Star Diamond Collection, especially the top-notch luxuriously-designed Hundred Flower Fairy Diamond Necklace with 207 diamonds, a cascading diamond necklace. It was of superior quality beyond question, since it is made of high quality white diamonds, most of which are pear-shaped, and set in the platinum base.
Well, all women were fond of jewelry.
The Hundred Flower Fairy Diamond Necklace had been speculated to price as high as thirty million dollars and it was just one hundred pieces per year.
Most of the people who bought this one were from rich and powerful family. What’s more, it also required some qualifications to buy it.
That was, a Silver membership with Cartier.
To gain the Silver membership, someone needed to spend 5 million dollars at Cartier!
That was no small number.
Refused by Victoria again, Travis was embarrassed and lost. Then he said, “Victoria, I...”
At this moment, Maximilian came up to hold Victoria's hand and stood in front of her before saying to Travis, "My wife doesn't need anything from anyone. If she likes this necklace, I can buy it for her."
Upon hearing Maximilian’s remarks, Travis was like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, then he exclaimed,
"What do you say? Can you afford it? Maximilian, are you kidding? Don't you know who you are? I’m afraid you can't even afford the one in my hand! It is worth six hundred thousand dollars!"
Maximilian smiled and turned to gaze at Victoria. Then he asked her in a gentle voice, "Do you like the Hundred Flower Fairy Diamond Necklace?"
Victoria was stunned, then her eyebrows raised and her hazy eyes fixed on Maximilian. Her pink lips trembled slightly before she shook her head hastily and said, "No, I don't like it. Let's go."
Nevertheless, the expression in her eyes and her hesitation had revealed her inner thoughts.
All women love diamonds and beautiful accessories.
Wearing that expensive diamond necklace could make her outstanding in the city.
It could even make her the center of attention at the mid-year banquet of the Griffiths two days later!
In this way, perhaps they could win Samuel's favor back and her core family wouldn't fall out of favor among the Griffiths.
Then, it would be possible to attain more power for Maximilian as well. Victoria thought.
Holding Victoria’s soft but cold hand, Maximilian left with a smile on her face.
Seeing the two leaving, Travis dropped the roses in his hand, and cursed furiously,
"Fuck! Maximilian, what the fuck are you proud of yourself? I will get Victoria one day, sooner or later!"
With her gaze returned to Maximilian, Victoria shook off his hand and said indifferently, "Well, he has left. You can let me go."
Maximilian giggled and said to Victoria in a serious tone,
"Victoria, wait for me. I will throw a birthday party worth remembering for you and Sissi this time."
Hearing this, Victoria’s heart palpitated, "What are you talking about? Grandpa would never approve of you going over for Sissy's birthday. Forget it! I shouldn't have been mad at you. You should go home first and I’ll go back to work."
After saying that, Victoria turned around and walked into the company with a graceful posture.
Maximilian stood in the doorway, looking at the back of Victoria, whose figure boasted with slim waist and well-toned ass. No wonder she was considered a goddess by many male.
Then he rode his electric bike to the nearby Cartier boutique.
Maximilian was going to buy the Hundred Flower Fairy Diamond Necklace for Victoria, as he had promised to give her the entire world!
Since she loved it, Maximilian would buy it for her. He could buy her anything, even the moon in the sky!
It didn't take long for Maximilian to arrive at the Cartier boutique in a nearby shopping mall.
As soon as he entered, he was immersed in the luxurious aura of the internally renowned brand.
A dazzling array of beautiful rings, bracelets and necklaces from the diamond collection, as well as the platinum collection was in display.
"Hello sir, what can I do for you?"
There came a female sales assistant in a black professional sheath dress, tall and elegant, wearing a smile on her face as she spoke.
Maximilian looked around and said, “Just look around."
"Okay, sir."
After saying that, the female sales assistant kept following Maximilian. Whenever he looked at one item, she would give him a brief introduction.
Then after over ten minutes, Maximilian didn’t say what he’d like to buy.
Other sales assistants beside frowned, and then started discussion in a low voice.
With an air of condescension, one of the sales assistant walked up to Maximilian with her arms around her chest, and asked with an unfriendly expression on her face,
"Gentleman, you've been looking around for almost twenty minutes. Do you really want to buy something? Don't make fun of Sapphire."
While speaking, the female sales assistant dragged her peer beside Maximilian, who had been watching him for ten minutes, and rebuked her,
"You are just too ignorant to realize that a guy like him cannot afford anything of our products."
Then the arrogant sales assistant sized Maximilian up and down, and then commented,
"Take a closer look! The sweatshirt and pants he's wearing are all from street stands, and his shoes are fake brand. Everything things on his whole body was worth no more than three hundred dollars in total. How can such a guy afford the luxury item in our shop? You should learn more from others in the future to be observant, got it?"
The sales assistant named Sapphire bit her red lips and glanced at Maximilian. She wanted to say something but she just nodded eventually and answered reluctantly,
"I know, Vanessa."
Maximilian looked at his clothes, and then realized that it was indeed a bit out of place in such a luxury boutique.
He smiled, and said in a careless tone,
"Excuse me, I'd like to see the Hundred Flower Fairy Diamond Necklace."
LOL! Hearing his words, the six sales assistants in the store were all dumbfounded!
“What did you say? You want to see the Hundred Flower Fairy Diamond Necklace? Sir, do you know how much that necklace costs now? Can you afford it?"
Vanessa said, her words full of disdain.
In her opinion, it was just a joke that Maximilian wanted to see the Hundred Flower Fairy Diamond Necklace!
That's a top-notch necklace that cost over 30 million dollars! There was not a single one sold yet in H City!
How can this poor guy get enough money for it?
Maximilian smiled and asked, "After all, I’m you customer. Can I have a closer look at it?"
Vanessa frowned. The company had rules, saying that they could not to drive away any customers, let alone judge their clothing and possessions at will.
Today, Vanessa had apparently violated the rules. But, in this store, no one would snitch or do anything about it.
Suddenly, a sneering voice came from the doorway, "Oops, Maximilian, how dare you come here?"
Following the sound, Maximilian saw Travis, who wore a smug and arrogant expression, walk in.
