Chapter 318: Fake Earrings

Nora was sitting alone at Table Five, watching Sean at Table Three. The bar counter and a partition partially blocked her view, but she could still observe their situation.

Nora had ordered a simple Americano coffee but had ignored the menu provided by the server, who was waiting nearby.

Unfortunately, Nora ignored the server, but sipped her coffee with elegance.

She had been wondering why Sean’s recent spending was so much, and it turned out there was a gold-digger who had been swindling him for his money.

Nora had seen this girl before. She seemed to be a school belle from the high school section, and her pictures were easy to find on the school forums.

Rumor had it that her family was dirt poor, with a deceased father and an ailing mother. They made their living by dealing in second-hand bags and knockoff luxury items.

She had a sister, who, apparently, had attended Akloit College’s high school, but had met an untimely demise five years ago.

What good could come from a girl with such a background? She was only with Sean because she of the Lawrence family’s wealth, and his younger brother was easier to deceive, right? Nora roughly calculated the cost of the food and red wine they had ordered; it was at least fifty thousand dollars. However, her mom had given Sean only twenty thousand in the morning. Where did he get the remaining thirty thousand?

As she pondered this, two female servers passing by were quietly discussing the situation at Sean’s table.
