Riches in Disguise novel Chapter 260

If Felicia were still around, I could pick a few gifts for her.

I picked up a bracelet and imagined how it would look on Felicia, but then I shook my head gently.

This one was too cheap and low-quality. It didn't suit her at all. She should be wearing jewels and diamonds, not this small trinket.

"Hey, William. Do you like this one?"

Isabelle suddenly leaned over.

Seeing the bracelet in my hand, she laughed. "If you like it, you can keep it. I'll buy it for you as a token of appreciation for all the help you've given today."

"No thanks. I don't like it."

I immediately put it down.

To my surprise, she picked it up again and personally fastened it around my wrist. "William, you don't have to be embarrassed! It's not expensive at all. It's just over a hundred dollars. I don't mind buying it for you.

"Besides, you helped Charlotte and me so much today. We must show our gratitude. Just wear it, okay?"

This... This was clearly a bracelet for a woman. What would I do with it?

I was speechless.

But I couldn't keep refusing when I saw the sincere look in Isabelle's eyes. After thinking about it, I finally accepted it.

"Thank you then."

I told myself to pretend that I liked it. Otherwise, Isabelle would feel bad and uncomfortable.

Seeing me accept the bracelet, Charlotte snorted in disdain. "Why didn't you just say you liked it from the beginning? A grown man acting all coy. It's disgusting!"

"Charlotte, what are you saying?"

My heart suddenly raced. "Keep her there. Don't let her leave. I'll be right there!"

I hung up and immediately turned to Isabelle. "Isabelle, something urgent came up. I need to leave for a bit, but I'll return soon. Can I leave your things somewhere safe for now?"

"Okay, sure. Just put them in the car."

She handed me her car keys. Without explaining further, I rushed to the parking lot, stuffed the things into the car, and headed straight for Silence upstairs.

However, as I rushed in and searched for Felicia, I unexpectedly ran into Lina. I froze.

The store manager gave me a knowing look and subtly pointed toward Lina.

It suddenly dawned on me. It turned out that the friend the store manager mentioned was actually Lina.

A crushing disappointment hit me, and I almost collapsed from its weight.
