Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted by Eleven Jewell

Chapter 877
Stella's friend was no other than Timothy Elrod, the boss of the secondhand store where she had bought her bag.
Timothy did not come alone; he even brought a staff member from the store with him. The two trailed behind Stella and slowly
walked into the room with the bags.
Timothy was really famous in the secondhand luxury goods market. Since many celebrities and influencers had traded with him,
the actors present immediately recognized him the moment he appeared.
'How could Stella's friend be Timothy?’ everyone wondered.
Then, they heard Stella say, ’Please help me take a look at all of these bags, Timothy."
Timothy nodded and immediately got his staff to examine them.
The two took out gloves, glasses, and various examination tools from the toolbox. Then, they started verifying the bags in the
cupboard.
After the staff member checked the bags, he handed them to Timothy, who inspected them carefully. Then, Timothy took a photo
with his tablet and wrote down their appraisal.
Everyone stared dumbfoundedly as the two systematically inspected the goods.
Yolanda regained her composure and said loudly, "What're you doing, Stella?’
Stella looked up and said, ’Didn't Bella already give me all of these bags? Since I don't have space for them in my house, I got
Timothy to help me examine them. After this, I'll just sell them to him. With the money I get from these bags, I can get a better
bag and not embarrass our team when I attend events. Isn't this what you said?’
"Since when did I say that?” Yolanda gritted her teeth in anger. She continued, "Don't you twist my words! What I meant was you
pick one out among the bags. How can this be the same as selling the bags for money?"
Stella glanced at her, "Bella has already given me her bags, so what I do with them is my own business. Why are you barking
about it when Bella hasn't even said a thing? Are you mad you didn't get any? You could ask her since you're close to her. Bella's
beautiful inside out and cares for her juniors. She'll definitely give you one.”

Yolanda turned red in anger. For a while, she could not speak.
Meanwhile, Bella also had a long face. She pursed her lips, ’Stella, you're right about me giving you the bags. However, isn't it
inappropriate for you to sell it right after?’
Stella smiled slightly, "Bella, you've already given me the goods, so whatever I do with them is appropriate. Besides, it's not my
first-time doing business with Timothy. The new owner of the last bag I sold to him loves the bag very much. She carries it to
every occasion, which is better than it collecting dust if it were with me.’
Bella's expression stiffened.
Stella was clearly referring to the Hermes bag Bella had bought from her at a high price.
'I've shot myself in the foot boasting about it in the past; I said I bought it on a proper platform. If all of these actresses find out
that it's secondhand, they'll all surely laugh at me. This is why I must swallow my anger and let Stella appraise the bags and sell
them off,' thought Bella.
The total appraisal for the forty-two bags was 699,787 dollars.
Bella's bags were of low quality. Some had gone through multiple hands; they were even the kind that did not increase in value
over time and decreased the more it was resold. The price Timothy had given Bella was already considered high.
"Tsk," Stella clicked her tongue. She mumbled quietly, ’I thought it was worth over a million."
Bella twitched her eye.
'I wish I could cut off Stella's mouth right now!’ she thought.
Timothy said, "I'll give you 700,000."
Stella shook her head.
"There's no need. Give me the exact amount," she said as she texted him her bank account number.
Timothy was really deft and quickly transferred her the money. However, he froze when Stella took out her purse from her bag.
"Ms. Jewell, may I take a look at your bag?"

"My purse?"
"No," Timothy said. "The one you're wearing."
Stella smiled
"Of course, you may,’ she said, taking off the bag and handing it to Timothy.
He put his gloves and glasses back on again. Then, he carefully took the bag with both hands and carefully examined it.
The more he examined the bag, the more serious his expression turned. A few minutes later, he looked up and said, "Ms. Jewell,
where did you buy this bag?’
"I didn't buy it; my friend gifted it to me. It's tiny and very convenient for holding my phone and keys. However, it's not that good
in terms of being waterproof. I dropped my previous one in the pool, and it cracked."
Timothy twitched his eye, "You have more than one?"
"Huh?" Stella blinked. "Can’t I have more than one?"
Timothy fell silent. After a while, he finally said, "If I'm not mistaken, Ebenezer himself designed, fully handmade, and customized
this bag, right?’
Before Stella could answer, Yolanda sneered, "You must be mistaken, Timothy. How could she afford something designed by
Ebenezer the Prodigy? Don't be ridiculous."
Ebenezer was an Italian women's handbag designer who was once a chief designer at a top luxury company. After he resigned,
he quietly retreated from the fashion industry.
However, he would occasionally accept private orders.
Regardless, he only accepted a few orders a year. Aside from the price, one could not even find him if they had some
connections.
This was why a private customized Ebenezer only existed in myths despite his popularity.
The reason was few had seen an actual one.

'A cheap, penniless person like Stella being able to afford a designer bag by Ebenezer the Prodigy? Don't be ridiculous,' thought
Yolanda.
Timothy frowned. He was a little unhappy with someone questioning his expertise.
He opened Stella's bag, revealing the metal hardware within it. Then, he pointed at the characters on it and said, "Ebenezer
leaves a string of code on every bag he makes. The first two characters represent the month and year it was made, while the
proceeding two represents the owner's birthday and zodiac."
He paused momentarily before asking Stella, "Ms. Jewell, are you a Capricorn born on the 10th of December?"
Stella was momentarily startled before she nodded.
Timothy said a little excitedly, "I knew this was one of his works! As expected, I was right."
Bella tightened her fists and looked incredibly unhappy.
