I smiled faintly. "I didn't bring my card with me, and I never use online payment methods. Sorry, I can't help you. Maybe it's a sign you shouldn't buy it."

Carla looked reluctant. I gave a discreet nod to the store manager. He gave a knowing smirk, his eyes saying, "Why pretend to be generous if you can't foot the bill?"

With a sigh, Carla pulled out her card. "What's the holdup? Bring the card machine over here!"

This jewelry store was one of my businesses. Once she completed the payment, my account got a €400,000 boost!

Even after purchasing the jewelry, Carla seemed uneasy. Right in front of me, she called Itzel. "Aunt Itzel, Riley just got me a €400,000 necklace, but I had to pay upfront. She said she'll reimburse me."

It was laughable. Buying her own necklace and then expecting me to cover it. Truly shameless.
