Love's Change of Heart

Chapter 249

Before Leanna could say a word, Maya glanced at a necklace on the display shelf and said, "I'll take this. I think it's not bad."

Leanna looked toward the said necklace and merely shook her head. "I don't think it suits you."

Tucking her hair behind her ear, Maya snorted. "For a person like me, I'm elegant no matter what I wear unlike some people who can only rely on gorgeous things to embellish themselves."

"If you really like that piece, I'll give it to you as a present. It's not worth much money, anyway."

Maya was unhappy upon hearing that. "Do I look like someone who's here to take advantage of you? Since I've already said I'll pay you, I'll pay you. Besides, I can tell from one look that your workshop has no business. So, you can drop the pretense that you're doing well," she said, taking out a bank card from her purse to pay.

Seeing how determined she was, Leanna raised her brows and relented. "Okay, then."

After paying the bill, Maya received a notification on her cell phone, but when she saw that only 80 dollars had been deducted from her account, she felt deeply humiliated.

Previously, Leanna had talked about hundreds of thousands loud and clear without even batting an eyelid, leading Maya to think that the items in her shop would cost thousands, if not more.

So, she didn't expect it to be that cheap!

What a despicable woman! How dare she mock me with this thing! Maya thought.

Just when she was about to blow her top, a thirty-four-year-old man walked in.

Her eyes darted over, and she quickly paced to him. "Raymond, you're finally here. I've been waiting for you for a long time."

Then, she glanced at Leanna and crossed her arms across her chest. "He's the man I'm always telling you about, the guy working in my husband's company as a manager, Raymond Ford. He's capable and smart, an outstanding man amongst thousands." And when she introduced Leanna, she pursed her lips and said, "Well, you already know about her.
