"Grandpa Phillip, Grandma Shirley, you guys have some coffee." Arabella handed the coffee to Phillip, then passed the water cup to Shirley, her tone soft. "Since Miss Enid insists on me explaining, I'll tell her and clear up her doubts."
Seeing Arabella's attitude, Shirley was all smiles. "Good, you two have a good talk then. We adults won't interfere."
When Enid heard that Shirley wouldn't interfere, she was even more delighted. "Then please, Ms. Bella, explain in detail. We're all ears."
Arabella looked at her, her tone casual. "The reason I can tell this chess set is a fake is because I have the real one!"
With that, everyone was dumbfounded.
This girl's got some nerve, lying so openly in front of so many people?
They all knew how valuable this chess set was.
They all knew about the previous collector, Mr. Eugene, his rotten temper, his arrogance. Even if Shirley herself offered to buy it at a high price, he might disagree.
Arabella was just a young girl. What abilities did she have, and what resources, to make Mr. Eugene sell the chess set to her?
Enid looked at Arabella, her eyes full of disdain. "Do you know how much this chess set costs?"
Looking at her clothes, none of them branded, it was apparent she couldn't afford this chess set!
"My chess set can't be fake! If you say you have the real one, bring it out for everyone to see!"
