Forbidden Passion

Chapter 17 What a Hypocrite!

"Miss Fitzroy, I apologize, but I ordered this bag half a year ago. If you like it, you can pre-order and have the sales assistant put you on the waiting list," Phoebe insisted, not giving an inch. Vanessa's face expressed shock and heartbreak she pleaded with a pitiful tone, "But I really love this bag, Miss Ziegler. How about I offer double the price for you to give it to me?" "Sorry, Miss Fitzroy, this bag is priceless," Phoebe responded firmly.

Seeing her unwavering attitude, Vanessa turned to Theodore with a helpless look, gently shaking his hand. "Theodore, I really love this bag. Can you ask Miss Ziegler to transfer it to me? I won't let her suffer any losses. I can offer two or three times the price."

Theodore furrowed his brows and looked at Phoebe. "Since Vanessa likes it, just let her have it. You don't usually use this kind of bag anyway., Iit would be a waste."

Phoebe's gaze involuntarily fell on their intertwined hands, feeling a pang of discomfort in her heart. If Vanessa said she liked Theodore, would she have to give him up for her too?

"This bag is a birthday gift I prepared for my mom."

Theodore paused and glanced at the platinum bag. In the eyes of a typical man, there was not much difference between this bag and the ones his mom usually carried. They just had a few more diamonds. He said, "She already has many bags. This one won't make a difference."

Phoebe thought, could he be any more biased? Just to make Vanessa happy, he was even willing to snatch away the birthday gift she prepared for his mom.

Earlier in the morning, he had taunted her at the dining table for not caring about his mom's birthday. She thought he was so filial, but it turned out to be a double standard when facing someone he liked.

"Fine, since you don't care about your mom's feelings, I have nothing more to say. Ah Sa, ILet Miss Fitzroy have this bag," Phoebe declared calmly.

A sense of triumph flashed through Vanessa's eyes. What she wanted to snatch was not just a bag, but Theodore's concern for her. She wanted Phoebe to know that even if she
