My Mute Bride

Chapter 324 Men Cannot Be Trusted

As soon as Jolly finished speaking, all of them in the room fell so silent that one could hear a pin drop. The veins on Ryan’s hand pulsated as he grasped the wedding dress. Even though he remained silent, his expression suggested that he was incensed. Rachel was starting to sweat upon seeing that.

In fact, Rachel wasn’t fond of Ryan either. However, in this kind of situation, they had figured out that the diamonds in the wedding dress were nothing more than hot potatoes, so there was no way he could swallow them up.

Jolly had gone overboard by saying that.

“Jolly.” Rachel took her arm. “I believe Mr. Sutton is sincerely trying to help you. You’ve got him wrong.”

“Really?” Jolly stared coldly at the man. “If he really doesn’t have any ill intentions, why doesn’t he leave an IOU?”

Rachel pursed her lips and uttered in a small voice, “You’re crossing the line…”

Ryan had offered to help them handle this wedding dress and divert Julia’s attention. Instead of thanking him, Jolly doubted his sincerity and even demanded an IOU, which was ridiculous.

What was even more inconceivable was that Ryan nodded in agreement without hesitation. “Alright. How do you want me to write it?”

Initially, Rachel thought that Jolly was just trying to enrage Ryan, but she never expected her best friend to pick up a piece of paper and a pen before passing them to Ryan. “Jot down what I’m about to say.”

Right in front of everyone’s eyes, Ryan directly took the pen and paper before sitting down.

“I, Ryan Sutton, have borrowed D Color five-carat diamonds from Jolly Carter on the Golden Cruise…” Just then, Jolly turned to look at Rachel. “Count how many diamonds there are.”

Rachel came to her senses and straightened the interlacing before doing a quick multiplication by using the grid method. “Three hundred.”

Given the grade of these diamonds, one five-carat diamond would cost somewhere between 600,000 to 2 million. Hence, the diamonds hidden within the wedding dress were worth over 100 million.
