Zoe Campbell's face darkens, her voice sharp: “20 million dollars?” What the hell! Are these bags really worth that much? The store manager's face remains smiling: “It’s 2,100,000 dollars, Miss Campbell is from the Lokio Campbell family, I'm sure you can afford it. If you don’t have the money with you, someone can bring it to you, and you can wait here. We'll prepare some coffee and pastries for you.” Zoe's face turns even more somber.
She snorts arrogantly, “What a load of crap! You're asking me for 20 million dollars for these shitty bags? Do you take me for a fool?! This is a rip-off! Fine, | won't argue with you! Let's go!” With that, she turns to leave.
Xaviera Evans stops her with an indifferent look, giving her an official smile, “Miss Campbell, our shop specializes in luxury items, made of the most precious materials. The prices are clearly marked on these bags. Perhaps you didn’t look closely. If... you feel that it's unaffordable, you can return them.” Zoe is only a daughter from an offshoot of the Campbell family. She finds it difficult to spend 20 million dollars all at once.
She yells in anger, “You guys are ripping me off!” “Miss Campbell, you're misunderstanding.” Xaviera blinks. “All the bags have prices clearly marked. If you find them expensive, you don’t have to buy them. We won't insist. But as a Campbell daughter, if you want to take the bags without paying, how is that different from robbery?” “Miss Campbell, you've accused me of ripping you off, but that’s slander. You had your bodyguards clear the area, so our store could focus on serving you. Based on our usual sales volume, at least 3,000,000 dollars would have been earned during the time the area was cleared.” “And because you drove away our customers, we need to compensate and appease them. That will also require some funds. The total amount for these would be more than 1,000,000 dollars.” “I've taken on these two expenses and didn’t ask Miss Campbell to pay. Yet, you accuse me of ripping you off? If Miss Campbell really thinks so, | won't put up with it any more. the hope you'll pay i Tosses!” Xenia Jaak can’t help but laugh.

20 The store manager quickly calculates the losses and then reports: “Miss, the losses incurred by the customers you drove away are roughly estimated to be 3,700,000 dollars. The compensation paid to customers in the form of discount cards and gifts is 1,300,000 dollars. In total, that's exactly Miss Campbell Doesn't Pay When Shopping 5,000,000 dollars. If we add the previous 2,100,000 dollars, it comes to 2,600,000 dollars” “What? You're asking for more money? Pay up, or I'll see you in court!” Zoe, furious, fumes at the numbers: “I am a Miss Campbell, but dare you stop me? It's your honor to have me in your store!” “If people learn that Miss Campbell favors your bags, they will definitely follow suit. I'm advertising for your store. Don’t be ungrateful, asking me for money. | think you've gone crazy with poverty!” Zoe pushes Xaviera and strides towards the exit.
Xaviera’s eyes darken, “Since Miss Campbell is unwilling to pay, let's call the police. If the news gets out, Miss Campbell will become infamous. The Campbell Company has invested in the development of a tourist project. If everyone knows Miss Campbell doesn’t pay for her things, | wonder if they would still patronize the Campbell Company?” “You!” Zoe roars: “You dare disgrace the Campbell name! I... It’s your honor that I’m willing to take things from your store, but... You're threatening me, are you? If | smash this damn store, will you believe me?” “You dare threaten me? I'll make you pay dearly!” Xaviera looks helpless, “Alright then. If that’s the case, Ill just have to seek help from the police. The bags you've taken are worth more than 20 million dollars. When this issue blows up, the Campbell family’s loss won't be just over 20 million dollars. It could be 200 million dollars, or even more.” Zoe's face turns ugly, her teeth clenched.
Suddenly- “Miss Evans, Zoe has been quite rude and ungrateful, | apologize on her behalf.”
