True Tycoon Her Empire, Her Rules

Chapter 154

The first time, it was Winnie who asked Mae, while they were examining the so–called “ruby bracelet” during the live broadcast, if that was the only one.

Mae had insisted it was the sole piece.

The second time, Winnie noticed the dark aura thickening between Mae’s brows and questioned where she had been.

Mae played dumb, feigning ignorance.

Now, it was the third time.

Seeing the confused expressions on everyone’s faces, Winnie didn’t beat around the bush anymore. Right in front of the live streaming camera, she blurted out, “Yesterday, Mae, the bag you found didn’t just have one ‘ruby bracelet.‘ It contained a pair.”

Her tone was so certain that it left little room for doubt.

The moment the words left her mouth, the guests and the crew, including Bagot, all turned to Mae with shock written all over their faces.

Even the audience in front of their screens were stunned.

“What? A pair of ruby bracelets? Is it what I think it is?”

“I remember now. Yesterday, Winnie did ask her if there was only one. Mae said there was just that one, so what’s going on now? Did she lie? Did she hide one for herself?”

“No, why? What’s so bad about finding a pair that she couldn’t share?”

Viewers were perplexed, and soon enough, some savvy netizen commented,

“Why else? Obviously, she showed off one and kept the other for herself.”

“That’s impossible. Mae isn’t lacking in funds, and why would she hide a measly bracelet?”

“I own a jewelry store, and judging by the craftsmanship and weight, that bracelet is worth at least fifty grand.”

“Fifty thousand? Mae earns millions just from endorsements. Fifty grand is like a bottle of her skincare product. How could she care about that kind of money?”

Ever heard the saying ‘the richer you are, the stingier you get‘? Why else do you think there are so many tax–evading celebs?

“Just because Winnie says so, you believe her? Mae is not that kind of person.”
