Instantly, a few women surrounded her and started a discussion.

"Yeah, it looks quite nice."

"Look at this finish. It must be very expensive!"

Patricia lowered her head and looked at her necklace while thinking about its price. All of them would definitely be very shocked if she told them how much it cost. Hence, she smiled faintly. "It's just from the marketplace, so it's nothing expensive."

As she said that, she quickly placed the necklace underneath her clothes. I must be careful not to let it slip out again next time. Otherwise, if someone who knows its worth sees it, it will definitely be taken away.

In fact, she didn't want to wear it out at all; she just wanted to keep it at home. However, Isaac wouldn't let her do that, and he even checked on her every single day. Sigh! He's the big boss, after all.

"How much is it, then?"

Cersei and Olivia were both staring at her, after which Cersei said, "Just tell us how much it is."

The two of them had their arms crossed in front of their chests, and they couldn't stop looking at Patricia's neck. They were completely drawn into her necklace.

Since they had been living their lives in high society for quite a long time, they were interested in accessories like this, and they had good taste as well. Although they couldn't tell which brand that necklace was from, its craftsmanship and pattern made it a classic item, and its worth would increase with time.

Even if it was nothing expensive, it didn't look awkward on Patricia. On the contrary, it made her look classy.

Since Patricia was being cornered by them, she eventually said, "Fifty bucks."

They probably wouldn't be interested in things that were worth only fifty, so she told them an extremely low price to stop them from pestering her.

Unexpectedly, each of them transferred a hundred to her. "We want two necklaces for each of us."

A shocked Patricia looked at her phone. They're really buying a necklace worth fifty bucks? It was really out of her expectations, and she felt distressed.

After she named the price, a few of the maids came over too. "We want it too, Miss Patricia. It must be good if both Madams like it. Doesn't it cost fifty bucks? All of us want one as well."

Instantly, Patricia was surrounded by them, and they were taking up their phones, wanting to scan her QR code to transfer the money to her. At that moment, she felt as though she had come back to the Aniston Residence for business.

Then, Adeline came over and sneered. "Are you doing business at home now, Patricia? Are you that

poor?"

When the maids heard that, they quickly moved out of the way as they were all afraid of Adeline. Even when she hadn't been pampered before, she was already arrogant at home. Now that she was getting married into the Arnold Family, she became even worse. When the maids made a little mistake, she would scold them, hit them, and chase them out right away.

She walked to Patricia's side and looked at her neck in disdain. "Aunt Cersei, Aunt Olivia, what's there that's attracting the both of you?"

Cersei and Olivia wore an awkward expression on their faces since they didn't dare go against Adeline now. Adeline didn't like Patricia, so when Patricia returned, she could only be the little miss of the Anistons.

Both of them said at the same time, "Nothing."

While they were walking away, Patricia said, "Aunt Cersei, Aunt Olivia, this necklace is the only one in the world. I'm afraid that I can't help you with it." She raised her voice on purpose to let everyone hear it so that no one would come to her, wanting to buy her necklace anymore. As for the payments she received on Venmo, she would transfer the amount back to them anyway.

At this moment, Adeline looked at her coldly and said, "Why did you come back? You're not one of the Anistons anymore. This is a family dinner within the Aniston Family, you know."

Even though Isaac was going to get engaged to Adeline soon, he wasn't in a position to participate in the family dinner. He could only wait until they were married; only then was he considered one of the Anistons. Patricia has long been kicked out of the Aniston Family, so on what grounds is she here?

She walked to Patricia's side and looked at her neck in disdain. "Aunt Cersei, Aunt Olivia, what's there that's attracting the both of you?"
