Mollie instinctively took a step back and clutched her bag tightly.
The bag was a crocodile leather Hermès, worth millions.
Darien stepped forward and reached out to snatch it!
Mollie immediately exclaimed, "This is mine!"
Darien froze for a moment.
Ellie chuckled and said, "Yours? Everyone shared in today's dine-and-dash. If you can't cover the cost, none of you will leave here tonight!"
As soon as she said this, Mollie finally let go, allowing Darien to hand the bag over to the manager.
Manager: "This bag has depreciation value; I'll count it as a million. You're still over a hundred thousand short!"
Darien glanced at the diamond hair clip on Mollie's head—the branded clip he had Ellie buy for her last year for her birthday…
How ridiculous.
There were hardly any truly valuable items, which is why Mollie carried them all with her.
Before Ellie could speak again, Darien immediately stepped forward and yanked the clip off!
