Chapter 50

Suddenly, the expressions on both Jeanette and Anthony's face changed subtly at the same time.

Suddenly, the expressions on both Jeanette and Anthony's face changed subtly at the same time.

Furthermore, Anthony was even more frightened that Zoe would find out that he was cheating on her. In a fit of panic, he tried to comprehend the situation in front of him. Logically speaking, Leanna couldn't have known Jeanette. But if so, how did she know her last name is Boulogne?

Feeling puzzled, Anthony tried to look at Leanna. However, he saw a trace of warning in her gaze when he met her eyes again.

Like a greased lightning, he reacted swiftly and said to Jeanette, "Look! They're calling for you to go over and have fun with them. Sorry, I have to accompany my girlfriend."

Upon hearing that, Jeanette retracted her gaze. "Do you think you're all that great just because you have a partner?" As soon as she spoke those words, she moved her feet and left.

Once Jeanette left, Anthony immediately went to cheer Zoe up. "Baby, don't be angry. That's just her nature. She likes joking around with us. But it's also my fault for not introducing you clearly."

Pulling his hand off her, Zoe said, "Why should I be angry? Alright, that's enough. Don't worry about me. Just go and accompany your friends."

"They can keep themselves company, so why should they deserve my company? You're my girlfriend, so of course I'll accompany you." Then, Anthony whispered something in Zoe's ear before dragging her outside. After taking a few steps, Zoe turned around and said, "Nana, wait for me for a while. I'll be right back."

"Okay."

Not long after they left, Jeanette appeared next to Leanna again. Holding two glasses of wine, she said, "I'm really sorry. In order to express my apology, I'll drink a glass as a forfeit."

However, Leanna said, "I don't drink."

Feeling embarrassed, Jeanette sheepishly withdrew her hand. "I heard Anthony say that you're a jewelry designer. In that case, you should be quite awesome. How about you design a piece of jewelry for me? Then, I'll help you spread the word to my friends and let them take care of your business."

Upon hearing that, Leanna smiled. "Sure. The privately customized jewelry starts at 200,000. Miss Boulogne, you can pay the deposit now if you want to."

Upon hearing that, Jeanette widened her eyes, and her facial expression took a drastic turn. "200,000?!"

Following her shock, she involuntarily condemned Leanna in her heart. She's not even a renowned jewelry designer! I thought the most she would charge was 10,000 to 20,000, but she's actually charging 200,000!

Looking at Jeanette's shocked face, Leanna said in a very friendly tone, "Oh, 200,000 is just the design fee. It doesn't include the price for the jewelry materials yet."

As Jeanette held the wine glass, there was an obvious change in her attitude. Suddenly, she wasn't as enthusiastic as earlier, and she said perfunctorily, "In that case… I will think about it."
