Chapter 11
Gavin spoke in a relaxed and carefree voice.
“Could you please wrap this dress up for me now?”
What he said sounded as if what had just happened didn’t have anything to do with him.
Because of Gavin’s sudden voice, the group of people finally came back to their senses.
Of course, the clerks hadn’t said anything yet, but Claire had started yelling hysterically at this time.
“You asshole! You dare to beat me? And you dare to beat my people?
“I won’t let you walk out of Aurora Plaza safe and sound!”
As she spoke, she took out her mobile phone from her handbag and made a phone call, which was
quickly answered by
someone.
In the next second, Claire stopped her previous high and sharp voice. At this time, she spoke in a soft
and waxy voice instead. of shouting into the phone with a loud cry.
“Isaac, tell me. Where are you now?
“I was bullied by others. Someone was bullying me at Aurora Plaza.”
Apparently, there was an anxious voice on the phone while Claire was still nodding.
“Yes, it’s in Aurora Plaza. Isaac, please bring more people here. This guy seems to be good at fighting.
My bodyguards are all
useless.”
Gavin seemed to turn a deaf ear and a blind eye to Claire’s call for help. He didn’t give it a damn.
He spoke to the clerk in the clothing store again.
“By the way, could you please wrap up this dress for me now?”
Hearing Gavin’s words, the clerk in the shop had a surprised expression.
At this time, the clerk, who was like a lackey in front of Claire, came over and spoke to Gavin.
“Boy, the disaster is imminent now, so why do you still care about this dress?
“Don’t forget. You have offended Claire, who will just send you to hell.”
Just as the clerk finished speaking, a low roar of a middle-aged man came over.
“Shut up!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHearing this voice, everyone turned their attention to that man.
This was a middle-aged man wearing a crisp suit with black-rimmed glasses on his face. He walked
over while tightly frowning.
The clerks in this clothing store were stunned before immediately standing respectfully and speaking to
the middle-aged
man.
“Hello, Mr. White.”
The clerk who warned and provoked Gavin just now looked extremely nervous and spoke immediately.
“Mr. White, this is the guy. This guy beat Claire and tried to rob her.”
Suddenly, the sound of a slap came.
The middle-aged man, who seemed to be the store manager, raised his palm, gave the clerk a big slap,
and frowned and shouted in a low voice.
“Do you think I didn’t see it?”
The clerk who was slapped on the face immediately shut up and covered his injured face in an
aggrieved manner, not daring to say anything.
The middle-aged man then spoke to the other clerks in a majestical tone.
“How many times have I told you? Don’t judge a book by its cover. Every customer who enters our
store is a god. Is this what you did to him?”
The store manager’s remarks indeed sounded quite upright.
He turned his head to face Gavin, bowed slightly, and spoke.
“Sir, I’m very sorry to have caused you so much trouble..
“I am the manager of this store. My name is Peter White.
“I saw the whole process of what happened in the surveillance video. You entered our store first and
took a fancy to this dress. There was something wrong with the way my employees handled it. I
apologize to you.”
With a few nods, Gavin was quite satisfied with the store manager’s attitude and words and said to
him.
“It’s okay. Don’t worry. By the way, could you please wrap this up for me now?”
After Peter heard Gavin’s voice, a flash of embarrassment flashed in his eyes.
He had taught his employees not to judge books by their appearance, but he didn’t think Gavin could
afford the dress, which was priced at 17,760 dollars.
After all, Gavin’s clothes were neat but very old. Moreover, the clothes of the girl behind him looked like
a beggar’s clothes, so he didn’t think Gavin could really afford them.
But he didn’t know how to say these words directly, so he instead offered a suggestion.
“Sir, I advise you to leave as soon as possible. I am saying this just for your personal safety’s sake.
“The person Claire called for help is the son of the richest man in Greenwald. Most people can’t afford
to offend him. So please…
“Peter! What do you mean by that?” At this time, the sharp voice of Claire, who had left the store
before, sounded again.
Sitting on the ground, she pointed frantically at Peter’s back and shouted hysterically.
“I am a VIP customer of your store! I was beaten in your store, but you were helping the one who
bullied me! What do you
mean?”
After hearing what Claire had said, Peter frowned slightly, turned his head, and looked at Claire.
“Claire, I know about your character pretty well. These clerks of mine may be afraid of the Dawson
family, but I’m not.
“How about this? I’ll ask my boss to come out and have a chat with your father. Do you agree?”
“You…” After hearing Peter’s voice, Claire gritted her teeth but didn’t say another word.
Obviously, the identity of the boss behind Peter indicated that this boss was not a simple one.
At this time, looking at Claire, who had stopped shouting, Peter turned his head again toward Gavin.
“Sir, it is probably not too late to go through the back door now.”
Seeing Peter’s attitude and way of doing things, Gavin was very satisfied and felt that there was
nothing wrong with allowing Peter to make some money from him.
He asked Peter again, “Could you please wrap this dress up for me now?”
“I… Looking at Gavin’s confidence in his eyes, Peter, on the other hand, felt a little unconfident.
Suddenly, Claire, who had made a big fuss there before, screamed loudly again as if she had got
something else on Gavin.
“Wrap the dress up!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Peter, do as he said! Wrap the dress up for him!
“I want to know where these two poor country bumpkins got the money to afford these clothes!
“Boy, let me tell you! If you can’t afford it, kneel down before me, kowtow, and call me grandma!
“You…
Hearing what she said, Zoe, who had always been dissatisfied with Claire, couldn’t suppress her anger
and spoke out.
“If my brother can afford it, you kneel down, kowtow, and call my brother grandpa!”
Zoe said this out of anger. She didn’t know if her brother had any money either, so after saying that,
she regretted it a little.
But Claire answered her immediately without hesitation.
“No problem. Do you really think your brother, who is good for nothing, can come up with so much
money?”
Seeing that things had come to this point, Peter had no choice but to call one of his clerks over.
“Now, wrap up this dress up for him and take this gentleman to check out.”
After saying that, a clerk immediately ran over and spoke respectfully to Gavin.
“Sir, do you want to pay in cash or by card?”
At this time, Gavin took out a black bank card from his pocket, which even Peter did not see clearly,
and handed it to the clerk before speaking.
“There is no password.”
“Got it.” After taking the card over, the clerk turned around and ran to the cashier.
About a minúte later, the clerk ran back with an embarrassed look on her face and spoke to Peter.
“Mr. White, the transaction failed. It seems that there is not enough money in the card.”
Upon hearing that, Claire, who was sitting on the ground, gave out a wave of exaggerated laughter, like
a shrew.
She was even laughing while patting her thigh very hard.
“There is not enough money in the card?
“What a damn joke!
Just go on, boy! Just buy it! Let me see how competent you are!
“Now, kneel down before me, kowtow, and call me grandma!”
