Chapter 256
Frederick walked around the counter and his attention was caught by the earrings section. In his memories, Alicia seldom wore jewelry. Even if she occasionally wore one, she would only wear earrings.
At the same time, he also thought of the teardrop earrings that Hannah had accidentally taken. Subconsciously, he wanted to choose a pair of earrings that fitted Alicia’s name, making it special.
After scanning around, Frederick felt that they were almost all the same. The promoter at the side seemed to have realized it and started introducing products to him
"Sir, do you want to buy earrings? We have many limited customized designs that you can choose from. The pre-order period is one week; if you have a style you like, you can also design it by yourself. We will have a professional designer to help you refine and adjust to make it convenient for molding and processing but the cost would be slightly higher!"
As he was speaking, the promoter pointed to the counter on one side. "Sir, this is the album!"
Frederick then proceeded to walk over to the exquisite- looking book with all kinds of earrings designs. At a glance, Frederick chose a pair of small tassel-style earrings with five droplets hanging underneath. As there was a picture of a model wearing it. he could better grasp how it would look like on Alicia. The earrings were beautiful and simple, not extravagant at all. It looked beautiful on the model as it sparkled.
Most importantly, the hidden meaning of this pair of earrings was: "The thought of loving you all the time”. He hoped that the love between both of them could also be like this. They would always think about each other, beyond distance, life and death
"Sir, even though this earring is not big. there are more diamonds on it. Plus, it is designed by a master in designing, therefore the cost will be slightly higher!"
The promoter said while tapping the calculator.
"The total cost will be 280,000 dollars. We provide free cleaning and warranty for life, and it will be delivered within seven to ten days. The deposit will be 150,000. If you are unsatisfied with the order and we got into a dispute in returning it. you will have to pay 10,000 dollars for a violation of the contract. Besides, this is a customized colored diamond design, hence we have pink, blue, and yellow diamonds. The prices are different according to each color."
Frederick looked at the color in the picture and shook his head. "It's okay, I want this."
White was the easiest to pair with daily clothes. The color suited Alicia's hair and it was timeless. He disliked those overly ostentatious ones! As he spoke, he had already taken out his card
"Okay, Sir, please wait a moment, I'll print out the receipt right away!"
After paying, signing. and taking the receipt, Frederick's mood became a lot better. When he went out, he was still thinking that he must be careful this time and not repeat the mistake he made last time
As Frederick thought about how happy Alicia would be as she received the earrings, his mood immediately improved. As he exited the shop and headed to the parking lot, he didn’t notice the familiar figure beside the window. As soon as he disappeared into a corner of the streets, Danica entered the shop. She immediately headed to the earrings section and looked at the album.
"Welcome, how can I help you, Miss?" As the promoter was still writing down the bill number and making a note of it. the album was still open. Danica immediately noticed the earrings.
Although she had been looking from a distance and didn't know which pair Frederick had bought, there were only four pairs of earrings displayed on that page.
Danica replied with a smile. "I want to buy a pair of earrings!"Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
"Miss, the earring counter is on the left. These are all pre-customized designs. It will take seven to fifteen days for you to pick up the product! They are basically limited editions and the total amount of them will not exceed 100 pairs!"
"Okay! I will have a look at these!” Danica pointed at the album and flipped through the pages before returning to the same page. "These seem nice.”
She took a glance and chose a very gorgeous pair of earrings-a long pair of earrings with full diamond embellishments. It looked beautiful

"Hmm, this looks good! iss, you have a great taste. This is the main hit of this year’s trending style. Many actresses have worn similar styles, mostly asymmetrical shapes! Our model hag Symmetrical style N earrings with adjusted length, Ss Su ablefor stage and offstage->

It is very suitable for a beautiful and fashionable lady like you! The price is only about 600,000 dollars, the same price as your bag."
After glancing at her bag that was only worth 200,000 dollars in her hand, Danica still felt delighted. At least, this promoter was quite knowledgeable and knew how to make the customer happy.
However, six hundred thousand was indeed too much for her. Most importantly, she wasn't sure which one Frederick had bought, therefore she asked, "These seem nice too, how much are they?" As she asked for the prices for all of them, she realized that the one she liked was the most luxurious and expensive one.
Subconsciously, she felt that Frederick would buy this too. At the same time, she also felt that she had good taste. She touched her hair and spoke deliberately.
"Each one is very beautiful, it's such a tough choice. I seem to like all of them very much but I can’t buy all of them! Do you have any recommendations? Which one has better sales?"
The promoter saw that she was hesitant and had asked about the prices, thus he immediately realized that she was worried about the prices. He quickly showed her two other designs.
"The prices of these two models are similar, both are about 300,000 dollars and the priceperformance ratio is relatively higher. A gentleman just ordered this ane. Look, my order has just been submitted.”
Seeing that Frederick had actually bought the second cheapest one, Danica felt terrible. She should be happy that she had to spend less but she still felt inexplicably uncomfortable.
Danica gritted her teeth but still kept smiling.
"I also like this one very much, it seems that this one is more suitable for daily life! Then, I will take this too! Can you give me an express order? My friend's birthday is coming
soon and I'm going to the party. hence I need to wear it on that day. Can you make it in three days? It’s fine if I have to pay more.” "Uh... Wait a minute, let me ask about it for you!"
The promoter turned around to make a phone call, and then came back.
"
iss, you areévery lucky. It happens that our designer i is here and we can make it mare quickly. Four days => should berfine but it costs 10 ,0Q0-" dollars for the extra fees. I will help out rush them more so that they'll make it in three days."

These were all just normal tactics and Danica didn't expose them. "Okay, then I will take this."
"Miss, which color do you want? There are several colors available for diamonds. For each color, the registration code is different and the price will vary. I will check the specific price for you once you have selected the color."
Upon hearing this, Danica was annoyed. Why was this so troublesome? "Which color is more popular?”
"The most common color, white diamond. The gentleman earlier on also ordered the white ones! Actually, I think pink diamonds are more feminine and more special but the pink diamonds are twice as expensive!”
n fact, Danicaglmost requested the pink ones beéause she felt that these earxings were too ordinary. Dependifig on how they were worry and ceaisidering the length of the earrings, even short hair would most ikely cover the earrings. If $6, what Was the point of wearing earrings?
Upon hearing this, she felt another surge of anger in her heart. However, she still smiled as she agreed, "Okay, I'll take the white one then!"
As Danica walked out, her face immediately darkened.
