Kramer didn't quite agree with Elsa's words. "How do you know she's only interested in Jim's money?" "Because I'm a woman. You wouldn't understand." Elsa saw Bonnie take out two gift boxes. "Let's see what she gave as gifts. Judging by her shabby appearance, it probably isn't anything good." Kramer felt that Elsa's words were unreasonable. "She cspecifically to congratulate them. The thought counts more than the gift. Does it make a difference what she's giving?" "Why do you always take her side? She's the one trying to steal your future brother-in-law!" Elsa stomped her foot in frustration.

With this quality... it's probably six figures." "My goodness! A six-figure pearl necklace? This... is way too extravagant!" Elsa took a deep breath and thought, 'Wow, a six-figure pearl necklace!
