Resurrecting the Genius Within

Chapter 186 Dakota Sullivan

“This piece is mine,” a woman announced as she walked through the door.

The shopkeeper looked up and greeted her with a nod. “Ms. Sullivan, please have a seat.”

Dakota strode over and declared, “I want that emerald you’re holding.”

She then noticed Isabelle’s tone turning hostile. “We meet again. What a coincidence.”

Ms. Sullivan?

Among the prominent families in Taragon, the Sullivans were the only ones

who could make that claim. This woman was likely Bella’s cousin, the one who was almost getting engaged to George.

Isabelle glanced up at her, giving her a casual once–over.

She didn’t recognise her face, but from her voice and attitude, it wasn’t hard to guess that this was the same unfortunate woman she had outbid at the auction last time.

Small world.

The shopkeeper smiled politely. “This emerald is currently being considered by this customer, Ms. Sullivan. Please wait a moment.”

Dakota sneered mockingly, “She’s looking at it? Can she even afford it?” The shopkeeper glanced at Isabelle, then back at Dakota, hesitating.

Ms. Jenkins is a VIP. Boss has personally instructed her to give her special treatment. How could she have trouble affording it?

“Dakota, mind your manners,” a woman said as she entered the shop.
