We are the Ugly Ducklings compare to her.
Did we just mock her for being a materialistic and foolish woman?
How idiotic of us!
A myriad of emotions flooded Emily at once. She was shocked, curious, and also touched.
She had no idea who this man was and why did he help her, but she enjoyed being revered by everyone inside the
shop.
Emily went along with Julian and pretended to be his girlfriend. With a coquettish voice, she whined, “Darling, please
don’t buy this store. This coat is the only thing I like here. We’ll just pay for it.”
Julian seemed stumped. “But their boss is going to gift this store to us. Why won’t you accept it? If we say no, the
boss will grovel at our feet until we accept it.”
Huh?
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtEmily was perplexed by his words.
Julian glared at the salesperson. “Why haven’t you called your boss?”
The salesperson was utterly terrified and only regained her senses upon hearing Julian’s demand. She immediately
left to contact the owner.
Soon, she returned with a middle-aged man who had a potbelly. He was indeed the owner of this store.
“Which one of you want to buy over my store by force? Step forward now!” he shouted angrily the moment he
stepped into the store.
Julian replied icily. “It’s me.”
Once the owner spotted Julian, his body trembled in fear. It was as if he was prey who had just met its predator.
Oh dear, why is this big shot here?
That’s Julian Thisleton of the royal Thisletons! In ancient times, he could be a prince, next in line to the throne!
Horror overwhelmed him as he got on his knees in front of Julian subconsciously.
“Mr. Thisleton, welcome here! I apologize for the delay.”
Julian sneered, “Did you just say that I don’t have the right to buy over your store?”
The owner refuted at once. “Of course not, Mr. Thisleton. You can have this store if you like it. There is no need for
you to buy it from me.”
“I-I’ll draw up the transferal agreement now.”
As the owner spoke, he glanced at his assistant, who promptly took his hint and started drawing up a transferal
agreement.
The crowd was astonished at the drastic turn of the events because they knew the owner of this store was a
capable man who had considerable influence in the military.
However, he was currently kneeling before this young man and even gifted this store to him for free!
This young man must be extremely powerful. But why did his girlfriend come shopping here? This place simply has
nothing much to offer her.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSoon, the owner’s assistant finished drawing up the transferal agreement.
The owner handed the transferal agreement to Julian, who then stuffed it in Emily’s hands.
“Darling, sign here. This store belongs to you now.”
With trembling hands, Emily signed her name on the transferal agreement.
She was once an office worker with a monthly salary of six thousand, but now she had turned into a wealthy lady
and the owner of this designer store.
In the blink of an eye, she had the privilege of becoming someone wealthy.
Emily felt so blissful.
After signing the agreement, she rolled it up and knocked it on the head of a salesperson.
“I wanted to inspect the store in disguise, but you thought I am a materialistic and poor woman.”
“Well, people like you won’t do well in the service industry,” she concluded.
The bunch of salespeople burst into tears and got on their knees while sobbing.
“Miss, it’s all our fault. Please forgive us!”
“We’ll never repeat our mistake.”
Emily glanced at the customers. “Which of you said that I have insulted the reputation of socialites?”
