Chapter 34
Stephanie sneered at Mrs. Klein and Katherine, but she didn't say anything.
The store manager walked over to Mrs. Klein and Katherine with a forced smile, saying coldly, "I'm sorry, but we just received a notice from the head office. From today onwards, our store will never sell anything to the Klein family. Please leave now, and we will cancel your VIP memberships as well."
Mrs. Klein's face changed immediately, and she shouted, "On what grounds?"
Katherine didn't look happy either and asked, "Why are you doing this?"
"Sorry, I can't tell you. Please leave."
Mrs. Klein was so angry she could hardly breathe.
This person from the Ingram family was willing to go to such lengths to help this little bitch!
Katherine walked over to Stephanie with a cold face and said, "Ms. Bishop, is this all you've got? Weren't you going to buy this store? Well, go on! Who do you think you're going to provoke with these despicable tactics?"
Stephanie laughed with a smug face, "Of course, I'm trying to provoke you, Ms. Klein! Just look at your expression, it seems like I've succeeded!"
"Bitch!"
"Who are you calling a bitch?!"
"Katherine, let's go!" Mrs. Klein walked over, trying to calm Katherine down.
Katherine shrugged off Mrs. Klein's hand angrily, "Mom, I'm not leaving until we settle this!"NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.
Mrs. Klein knew what was going on - Stephanie was currently the favored plaything of the Ingram family's young master. He was of course happy to stand up for her.
If that guy was so protective of Stephanie, there was nothing she could do for the time being.
So she sternly said, "Katherine! Listen to me, I'll explain it all later. Just come with me for now!"
Katherine reluctantly left with Mrs. Klein, giving Stephanie a hateful glare as she did.
Stephanie, however, couldn't care
less. She happily took Marilyn shopping for clothes inside the store. Since Sebastian was so generous, there was no reason not to tak@advantage of it. Most of the clothes in the store were more suited for her mom's age, so she took the opportunity to pick some nice ones for her.
Marilyn, however, kept trying to refuse the offer, saying, "Steph, this doesn't feel right..."
Before Stephanie could say anything, the store manager chimed in with a smile, "Please feel free to choose, Mrs. Bishop! The head office has instructed us to treat you as a VIP from now on. You don't have to pay for any items you pick."
Right now, the manager just wanted
Mrs. Bishop to be satisfied and
choose some clothes to make up for the near-disaster. When he first received the call from the mall management, he was terrified.
Urban Emporium wanted to gel.
immediately terminate the contract with their store and was even willing to pay a penalty just to kick them out.
The incident had now reached the head office, but fortunately, the boss acted quickly and through his connections, found out the real story from the secretary of Skyline Corporation's president. They instructed the store to handle the
situation carefully and ensure Mrs.
Bishop left satisfied.
If they couldn't satisfy Mrs. Bishop's demands, the situation wouldn't just affect this one store - it would involve the entire company.
With Urban Emporium stores all over the country, eviction from every mall would likely lead to bankruptcy in a short period.
"Mom, don't overthink it - just consider it as your future son-in-law showing love and care to you."
