Third Person’s POV

SFI Coins

During the holiday season, many people bought jewelry as gifts, so the jewelry business was booming.

When the carriage stopped outside the Golden Jewelry Store, Priscilla was surprised to see the store crowded.

The year–end promotion with discounted jewelry on the first floor had drawn large crowds.

Priscilla wondered why business was so good when she’d been told otherwise.

Before she could get out to check, Adelaide said, “Susan, go ask if they have gem–embedded gold bracelets. I’ll buy a few if they do.”

“Why not go in yourself?” Priscilla asked.

Adelaide, in formal wear, didn’t want to draw attention. She replied, “It’s too crowded. I don’t want to ruin my new dress.”

Priscilla agreed it was too risky for her to go in with all those people.

So she sent Susan.

Susan got off the carriage at the store. Priscilla watched her squeeze through the crowd, struggling to reach the display cases to ask the staff.

After some difficulty, Susan managed to ask, “Do you have gold bracelets with gemstones?”

The young clerk glanced up and loudly replied, “They’re sold out on the first floor. They’re being sold on the second floor, but they’re out of stock now. We’ve restocked several times this year, but they’re all sold out. If you want to buy, you can place an order on the second floor. They’re expected to arrive in February next year.”

“Place an order? And wait until next February?”

Susan slowly backed out and headed upstairs.

The second floor was elegantly decorated, with eight or nine display cases. Each had cushioned chairs, and every customer was attended to by a dedicated staff member.

On the other side, over ten people waited, sitting on chairs, enjoying snacks and coffee, warmed by the fireplace.

The customers were dressed in finery, but their jewelry was understated. They appe wealthy merchant families rather than noble ones.

Susan spotted a customer wearing several golden bracelets and asked the clerk to pack them up for her.

Although the design was trendy, it still paled in comparison to the Royal Jewelry Store’s offerings.

A clerk approached and Susan inquired, “Do you have any gemstone–embedded bracelets?”

“Wow, what a coincidence! They’re all sold out! Would you like to place an order?” the clerk replied.

“Your business is booming, isn’t it?” Susan asked.

After Susan parted ways with Priscilla, her thoughts became clear. “When I came the other day, there were also many customers. Could it be that the popular styles are all out of stock now?”

“You’re right! As for our business, apart from the Royal Jewelry Store, none in the city can match us, the clerk said proudly.

He sized up Susan’s attire and demeanor, then added, “You see, besides the gemstone–embedded bracelet, our other styles are quite good too. We have a wide variety, but many are currently out of stock and will have to wait for restocking next year.”

Susan glanced at the items in the display cabinet, her face showing dissatisfaction. “Forget it, I’ll have the lady come and pick them out herself tomorrow,” she said before leaving.

Back at the carriage, she reported to Adelaide, “Luna Adelaide, the gemstone–embedded bracelet is sold out.”

Adelaide acknowledged, “This type of gemstone–embedded bracelet is a design from the Royal Jewelry Store. The Golden Jewelry Store copied their style but still managed to sell it well.”

“Sold well? Then the financial statements sent at the end of the year must look good,” Priscilla remarked with evident delight.

However, Susan was worried–the clerk had said their business had been thriving, second only to the Royal Jewelry Store in the entire city.

Seeing Priscilla’s pleased expression, she decided to keep quiet for the time being and wait until Wanda delivered the financial statements- which were due to arrive in the next couple of days.

Having witnessed Madison’s despicable behavior today, Susan couldn’t help but wonder if Madison and her daughter had been deceiving Priscilla all along. Surely they weren’t that despicable?

She glanced at Adelaide, who appeared confident, as if she already knew something.
