And Elly Campbell realized it suddenly after Jeny Chapman finished admonishing George Parker.
Buying a fake inkstone purported to be from the Huizong era for ten dollars and passing it off as genuine, what was she thinking?
Even vanity should have some limits, right?
She knew Dragon Pavilion was selling the real thing, yet she had the gall to bring a fake to challenge them.
Fine, buying a fake is one thing, but to flaunt one's supposed knowledge by claiming it was used by Emperor Huizong when he invented the Slender Gold Script…
Isn't that just deliberately sabotaging her own exit strategy?
And now she's foolishly shouted out the actual amount she paid, does this "drag-along" have any brains at all?
Even if her father were inclined to help her bluff her way out of this, he simply wouldn't have the means to do so now, and he would likely drag Old Mr. Green into this mess as well.
