My Husband's Been Exposed By The Media Chapter 22
Advertisement
Mary walked over quickly and looked at a watch in Mabel's hand.
This was one of the few watches that Belland usually wore. There wasn't any logo on it, but even if there was, Mary didn't know much about famous watches, so she couldn't recognize any brands.
"You must be mistaken, Mabel. This is just a watch that Belland just changed out of."
Belland had many different watches. Basically, he would wear different styles every day.
Mary thought that it was just one of Belland's quirks. Moreover, he said that the prices were very cheap, so Mary did not trouble him about it.
This piece should have been the one Belland changed out of before he went to work. Before Mary could put it away, Mabel saw it.
And Patek Philippe?
Even if Mary didn't know about famous watches, she had heard that it was a very expensive brand.
How could Belland afford it?
Mary also looked at the watch carefully. To be honest, she hadn't looked at Belland's watch carefully before. Now, looking at it carefully, she couldn't take her eyes off it.
It was an exquisite gold dial with a very exquisite pattern carved on it. There was a ten-thousand-year calendar on the dial, and there was even an accurate celestial chart inside that could clearly see the constellation arrangement.
It was a watch that was filled with a noble aura. Even though Mary did not know much about watches, she felt that this watch was well-made and expensive.
"Oh my God, it's Patek Philippe's 5173! It really is 5173!" Mabel's exclamation rose once again.
Because as her finger pressed gently on the dial, other than the time needle, the rest of the dial began to combine and transform, finally converging into a symbol that was formed from the combination of a knight's sword and the cross -- the Kaledoraba Cross!

Mabel's cheeks turned red as he said excitedly, "Look, this is the Patek Philippe's symbol, hidden in the dial. This is the signature design of 5173! Oh my God, this watch is a limited edition. It is said that Patek Philippe spent seven years to develop this watch. Tens of thousands of parts were all installed by hand. This watch is not something that can be bought with money. To be precise, it is a symbol of status!"
Mary stared at the watch in a daze, a blank expression on her face.
The first word that flashed through her mind was: Fake.
Belland must have bought a high-quality imitation.
Mabel turned to look at Mary in shock. "Do you know how much this watch costs?"
Mary shook her head.
It should be very expensive.
But even though she was mentally prepared, Mabel still revealed an amount that shocked her. "Close to 30 million dollars! Of course, even if you can come up with 30 million dollars, that doesn't mean you can't buy it."
Mary swallowed hard.
Behind her, Francis casually raised his wrist and fiddled with the dial. A slight mechanical sound rang out, and the dial of the watch on his wrist began to change. It was exactly the same as the one in Mabel's hand.
Mabel and Mary were still in shock and didn't notice his actions.
"It can't be real. How could Belland afford it?" Mary quickly regained her composure and took the watch from Mabel. Then, she opened the drawer under the coffee table.
There was a drawer full of watches.
"Look, Belland has a lot of watches like this. He loves watches very much. He wears a different watch almost every day." Mary put the watch into the drawer.
Mabel stared at the drawer, but her mouth was wide open in shock.

"Graff Diamond Charm, Jacob Billionaire Watch, Patek Philippe Ref. 1518! Oh my god, this is Jiang Shi Denton's 57,260!" Mabel mumbled in a daze, as if she was counting her family jewels.
It could be said that every watch in this drawer was something she could only dream of but could not obtain!
Any one of them would probably be worth millions!
Originally, when Mary said that the Patek Philippe 1573 was fake, Mabel had some doubts in her heart. Of course, she also thought that it was impossible for Belland to afford the real one.
However, the cost of imitating that kind of watch was so high that it was not something that an ordinary family could afford, right? Selling fake watches at such an expensive imitation price? Would anyone really do such a business?
But seeing the drawer full of expensive watches, the doubts in Mabel's heart gradually disappeared.
Even if Belland was really a hidden rich man, how rich would he have to be to be able to afford this drawer full of watches?
Mabel looked at the drawer that had been closed by Mary with a strange expression. She raised her eyebrows and sincerely suggested, "Perhaps you can suggest that Belland should be more restrained in spending money on watches. After all, even if these famous watches are all imitations, such imitations will still cost a lot of money."
"Is that so?" Mary responded in confusion. She had always thought that these were all street-level goods and were very cheap.
