Skylar had contacted Yulia shortly after leaving Blanc’s ward. He was on his way to join the mother and
daughter on their shopping trip. It was a rare opportunity to be able to spend time with his family on a
weekend. He did not care if Blanc was dead or alive. In fact, he only agreed to treat the old man
because Yulia and Lola had encouraged him to do so. Little did he know that he had to deal with the
Whitlock family’s mockery and ridiculous act of pulling the needles out of Blanc’s body. It was a waste
of his time and energy. Although he was sympathetic to Delilah’s situation, he did not wish to be
involved in the family feud. Hence, he decided it was best to leave the place.
When Skylar arrived at the mall, he noticed Yulia engaged in a heated discussion with two other
individuals in a branded experiential shop.
“What’s going on, Yulia?” Skylar inquired, concerned.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBefore she could reply, the young man next to her hissed, “Oh, we meet again.”
Skylar turned to look and saw it was Todrick, the man he had a disagreement with at the restaurant the
night before.
“Skylar!” Yulia took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down. However, she still felt slightly
annoyed.
Lola was relieved that help had arrived. “He’s so irritating, Daddy!” she exclaimed as she pointed to
Todrick. “Mommy saw the scarf first and she was even holding on to it. He snatched it from her and
said that woman fits the scarf better.”
Skylar finally understood that the cause of the tension was a scarf. He scoffed inwardly, isn’t it
shameless of him to fight with a woman for a scarf?
Todrick chuckled when he heard Lola’s claims. “So what if she was holding on to it? The scarf belongs
to the shop if she hasn’t paid for it. I have the right to buy it.” He then turned to the salesperson and
said, “Wrap this up for me.”
“Sir…” the salesperson said hesitantly. She was aware that Yulia had obtained the scarf first and that
Todrick’s behavior was prohibited under the store’s rules. She dared not say anything, though, for fear
of upsetting the man.
Displeased at the salesperson’s inaction, Todrick frowned and chastised, “What’s wrong? If you can’t
make the decision, get your boss to speak to me. You can also call the regional manager and ask them
who they should sell the scarf to. You can tell them that I’m the young master of the Whitlock family,
Todrick Whitlock.”
“The young master of the Whitlock family?” the salesperson said in surprise.
The people who had gathered to watch the commotion began to whisper to one another.

“Who else dares to call themselves the young master of the Whitlock family in Cloudtopia?”
“No wonder he’s so arrogant. The Four Great Families can get whatever they want, including this
scarf.”
They turned to Skylar and Yulia and gave them a pitiful look. Based on their lackluster dressing, they
deduced that the couple did not have the power nor the money to fight against someone from the
Whitlock family.
“This is just a scarf, Todrick. She did get it first so let’s not fight anymore. There’s another outlet in
Sconvia City. We can get it from there,” the woman next to Todrick spoke.
However, the man waved his hand and said haughtily, “It’s different, Amanda. When you return to
Sconvia City, you can obtain the scarf, but it’ll never be the same as a present from me, would it? I’m
the young master of the Whitlock family. I can get whatever I want in Cloudtopia. I don’t care who saw
the scarf first. As long as I want it, it shall be mine!”
