One Night Surprise Novel

Chapter 157 Can They Be Contacted

“This one.” Gale looked around and pointed at the largest diamond in the middle. “This one will do.”

Just by looking at the eyes of the onlooking salesgirls, one could tell that the value of that diamond was astronomical. The store manager had been working in the shop for a long time. Thus, she managed to remain calm as she asked, “Do you have any specific requirements? Or, if you’ve prepared a design, you can hand it to us.”

“I don’t have many requirements. I only need it to be unique, and it needs to suit her temperament.”

“What kind of temperament does she have?” A salesgirl asked tentatively.

Closing his eyes, he pondered over it for a moment before blurting out, “Hot and spicy.”

The corner of the salesgirl’s mouth twitched slightly. Then, she turned to Alexander with a pleading look. Alexander frowned and shifted his gaze away with a cold expression. “I don’t know him.”

Gale acted like he didn’t hear anything as he said to the store manager, “I can give you several of her pictures. You can ask your designer to create a few designs based on her pictures until I’m satisfied with one of the designs.”

Gale glanced at Alexander. “I’m done. Don’t you have something you want to do?”

“Yes.” Alexander handed a photo to the store manager. “Can you make a necklace with this design?”

It was a photo of a pendant inlaid with an exquisite jade on a twisted silver necklace. The necklace sparkled brilliantly.

“This design?” The store manager was slightly taken aback.

“Isn’t this the necklace you were preparing to give to Mikayla six years ago?” Gale craned his neck to take a look at the picture and exclaimed in surprise. “Wasn’t it lost? Are you making a new one? For whom?”
