Actually no, save few exceptions, like maybe something crafted by a master jeweler, You can never recoup 100% of what was spent on a piece of jewelry. I think it's like when buying it jewelers will evaluate it as the sum of its parts, not the piece as a whole. The craftsmanship is lost, again unless it's some artist or similar

girl needs to be guarded, the difference between their world is pretty marked. there are 2 scenarios, she gives in, they have their time together and then he changes his mind or finds it easy to follow his grandfather's wishes, she ends up alone and jilted. They get together it's fine, but who will get the flack for the boss-employee relationship? Who will be labeled a stairclimber using her body? Cut her some slack.
the younger brother and the girl he likes remind me of My Little Monster... anybody else?
