42: Chapter 42 – Robin’s weird revenge

Chapter 42 – Robin’s weird revenge

Robin used the opportunity to stare at Sabrina's neck after stepping out of the elevator to allow others to go in and come out. The blue diamond was a rare kind and he knew it was expensive.1

"How much are you selling it for?" 

He asked seriously. Since Sabrina had not taken any money for her alimony, he could buy it for Zayla, so Sabrina would get some commission from it.

"How much do you want to buy?" 

Sabrina asked in return, Robin frowned, feeling like she wanted to mock him. Since he had a fair knowledge of jewelry, he decided to test her knowledge and ability.

"500k."

Sabrina laughed and said, "The guy is broke." Then she turned to Martin and said, "Martin, let's get out of here."

Zayla frowned and Robin was greatly annoyed. His ex-wife, who knew he was a billionaire, called him broke. Before Sabrina took a step with Martin, Robin said,

"2 million."

Making a 500k profit was cool but for someone like Robin who was trying to be stingy, Sabrina decided not to sell it. Wrapping her arm around Martin, she said, 

"Martin, what are you waiting for?"

"5 million," 

Zayla yelled before the pair took a step. Sabrina halted and turned around, amazed by Zayla's stupidity. She smiled and asked,

"Did you say something?"

Zayla was a little nervous, seeing that Robin was upset but this was her chance to prove to Sabrina that she was very important to Robin. Besides, the girl from the ring store had tricked her and she meant to deal with her later. 

Right now, she had to cover the shame of the fake diamond ring she was wearing.

"Ehhm…." She stammered before letting out, "My fiancé will buy me the necklace for 5 million."

Sabrina looked around and saw Lizzy with Devin from the distance. She said instantly, 

"Lizzy, please package this for her." She turned around and Lizzy came to remove it from her neck to put it back in the jewelry box. 

Lizzy turned to Robin, asking, "Mr. Jewel, your card please?"

Robin shook his head before fishing out his card from his suit pocket and giving it to her. Zayla was so happy when the card was swiped successfully. After the jewelry box was handed over to Zayla, she opened it, beckoning Robin to put it on for her. 

Robin did so while he cautioned, 

"Be careful with bargains next time, Zayla, that necklace is only worth 2 million or less."

Zayla frowned sadly, feeling cheated, whereas Sabrina returned Robin's card and said, 

"You see, Mr. Jewel, the original price of the necklace is 1.5 million but the price you put on it is the value you give to your woman. Do you mean that she isn't worth it?"

Robin was shaking with anger, whereas Zayla was very embarrassed. Did it mean that she was not worth it?

Sabrina did not wait for an answer before disappearing into the elevator where Lizzy and Martin joined her. Lizzy placed another necklace on her neck, gave her a thumbs up and said, 

"Good one there, I knew you had it in you."

After coming back from the washroom, the Borough president had arrived and the atmosphere was exhilarating. The music had changed and a lot more guests had arrived. 

When Sabrina walked in with Martin, she indeed captured everyone's attention.

"Isn't that Mr. Jewel's ex-wife, she looks stunning."

"Yes, even more stunning than his new fiancé and she has a new boyfriend too."

"The man is so lucky to have her. God, she's like a goddess from a mystical book."

As Zayla heard people's comments concerning Sabrina, she was virtually upset. She was the one with Robin and yet, no one said anything good about her. They kept giving all the compliments to his ex-wife.

"Have you seen that necklace? It must be very expensive."

"Yes, I think her new boyfriend spoils her by buying her expensive things and bringing her out. The dress is also gorgeous. Mr. Jewel never flaunted his ex-wife in public."

As Robin heard the gossips, his eyes darkened imperceptibly. Sabrina was now wearing a red diamond. No matter the color of diamond she wore, it matched her dress perfectly because it was black.

"And now our guest of honor, Mr. Robin Jewel," 

The MC asked Robin to accompany the Borough President and his family to cut the cake. There was a loud applause after the cake cutting was done.

"Thank you, Mr. Jewel for coming. I know you are a very busy man so this means a lot to me." Mr. Bright, the Borough President said. 

Daniel had also arrived but seeing that woman he saw the last time with Sabrina's ex-boyfriend, he tried distancing himself from the woman he brought along and had not gone to see Robin.

"It's a pleasure, Mr. Bright," Robin smiled and said before the Borough President went on to say, 

"My wife is blown away by the necklace your ex-wife is wearing. Can you convince her to sell it? I can see that your mistress is wearing a similar one."

Zayla smiled bitterly to be addressed as a mistress instead of fiancé and she expected Robin to correct the elderly man. To her dismay, he only casually said,

"Sabrina is into the sale of jewelry so there's no doubt she will sell it. Don't worry, I will call her over." 

Robin left Zayla, walked over to where Sabrina was talking to some businessmen, most probably, trying to sell the necklace and said, 

"You are coming with me."

"No, she's not," Martin refused when Robin said, 

"She said it herself that she sells jewelry. Bright wants to buy one for his wife." 

Without waiting for any of their responses, he grabbed Sabrina tightly by the arm and began to walk with her as if they were a perfect couple.

Martin's teeth were grinding badly, he could feel that Robin was trying to get back at him for what he said in front of the media but did not care. After selling the jewelry, he will keep Sabrina from Robin.

As Robin walked with Sabrina, he felt a sense of warmth and comfort like he never felt before. He saw a waitress carrying wine, picked two glasses and offered one to her, saying, 

"Here you go, your so-called boyfriend did not bother to get you a drink." 

Sabrina tensed instantly. How was she going to refuse without giving herself away?
