Lucky for them, the new girl, Ms. Bennett, found the weak spot of Oscar. Who knew how much more money they would have lost otherwise!
"Is the gift ordered?" asked Hans Collins.
Julian respectfully responded, "The owner wasn't willing to sell. We've tried negotiating several times without success."
"Who's their guy?"
"They say it's someone from the McMillan family," replied Julian.
The McMillans were good buddies with the Collins. There's no way Hans Collins would risk falling out with them over a necklace worth thirty million.
He would have to pick another one.
Julian browsed the QY website again, and Hans Collins' eyes scan through the options, finally settling on a four-leaf clover necklace.
The four leaves were studded with top-grade green diamonds. It’s a shame it's only worth two and a half million. It felt like it's not expensive enough.
"That one," Hans Collins said, handing the iPad back to him. "I'm going home for dinner with my sister tonight, so try to wrap up the important stuff this afternoon."
"Sure thing," Julian selected a few more important documents and respectfully presented them to him. "Oh, by the way, boss, word's out that you're back in town. A bunch of folks want to have dinner with you in the next few days. When do you reckon,"
"Blow them off." Hans Collins felt he needs to make time to spend with his sister.
Meanwhile.
