NovelEnglishChapter 144 Bracing herself against the privileges of tenure and a passing rapport with the manager, Una Immediately tattled, not giving Dinah a chance to speak.
Of course, the manager wasn’t about to reprimand a long-standing employee for the sake of a newbie, so he said, “Dinah, this isn’t your concern anymore. Ms. Yeager, I'm terribly sorry for this debacle. Lethave Una give you a 5% discount as an apology. Una, please reprint the contract for Ms. Yeager.” A glint of triumph flickered in Una’s eyes as she smiled and said, “Right away, boss.” Dinah felt deeply wronged. As a newcomer desperate to keep her job, she was powerless. Anthea looked up, her eyes narrowing, “Manager Conn, right? This isn’t how you treat people, is it? Aren't we all on the steam here? I've been impressed with Dinah’s service. In fact, if it wasn’t for her, | wouldn't consider buying this place at all!” With that, Anthea spun on her heel and left.
Dinah was stunned, looking up at Anthea with immense gratitude in her eyes.
Most customers would have turned a blind eye.
After all, it wasn’t their loss, especially with a 5% discount in the offing! But Anthea had stood up for Dinah, a mere employee! Ms. Yeager was kind-hearted, Dinah thought..
The manager, breaking into a sweat, quickly followed Anthea, bowing and apologizing, “Ms. Yeager, don’t be upset. This was wrong of us. Dinah, chere!” Dinah hurried over, “Ms. Yeager?” Anthea finally looked appeased.
Una was dumbstruck with mixed feelings. She hadn't expected Anthea to make such a stand.

That $200,000 was supposed to be hers! That bitch Dinah.
If only she had known Anthea was here to buy the place, not to cause trouble, she would never have allowed Dinah to serve her.
“Sir...” Una looked at Manager Conn, hoping he’d speak up for her.
But customer service was paramount.
Manager Conn glared, “Zip it!” If Anthea complained to his superiors, his own job would be on the line.
At the sight of the manager's reaction, Una was green with regret, as if she had died inside.
But it was too late for regrets. She could only watch as Dinah walked away with her. $200,000.
Back at the Yeager family.
Anthea called Carole and Nanson into the living room once they were home.
She announced two serious matters that she had bought a shop and had acquired the courier company where Nanson worked.
“Mom, whenever you have time, we can get someone to refurbish it, and then it’s ready for business. Here's the purchase contract. Uncle Nanson, here’s the acquisition contract for your company. Tomorrow, you'll go to the headquarters for the handover with the previous chairman. You're the new legal representative.” Carole and Nanson were shell-shocked.
They couldn't believe what they were hearing was real.
Carole was the first to snap out of it, “Ann, where did you get all this money? Did the Morris family give it to you? We can’t keep it! Send it back right away!” These acquisitions couldn't have been cheap.
Besides the Morris family, where else could Anthea have gotten such a large sum? Nanson also cto his senses, “Yes, send it back! Ann, we may be poor, but we have our pride. I'll go with you!”

Anthea replied with a smile, “Don't worry. This money has nothing to do with the Morris family I made it all by playing the stock . | had a great run a few days ago. The stocks | picked all hit the upper limit, so | made a good sum.” Anthea had to use stock trading as an excuse.
Otherwise, there was no explanation.
She couldn't claim to be a tech mogul, which would be even less believable to Carole and Nanson.
Especially since Anthea had grown up in the lap of luxury with the Morris family and was well-versed in finance, it was normal for her to play the stocks.
“Is that really true?” Carole asked.
Anthea nodded, “It's true! | was switched at birth with Rebecca. The Morris family would rather sê me dead than give me a dime. The night | returned, they even hadsign a
severance agreement! This money is really my own.” She wasn't lying. The Morris family despised her. Back in her previous life, they were the ones who set her up for disastert
