Bring Your A Game

Chapter 506 Do You Understand?

Meanwhile, over at the head office of Carnegie Jewelers. At the largest shop under the Carnegie Family banner, the interior was designed decadently and luxuriously while the attendants at the counter were well-trained to have a discerning eye for who could bring them the highest commissions.

The moment Elise entered the shop, three attendants surrounded her. “Is there anything we can do for you, pretty miss?”

So outstanding was Elise’s temperament that they were certain she came from an extraordinary background and would be generous in her spending. They were dying to get a commission from her.

However, since she was here for somebody, she only looked around the shop to no avail.

Elise figured that it was better for her to use a simpler method, so she cut to the chase by asking the attendants, “Where’s Frostine Murray? Shouldn’t the designer be introducing her works in the shop at this moment? Why isn’t she here?”

The attendants exchanged looks with each other. “Is there a designer here by the last name of Murray? I don’t think so.”

There was no way Elise could have come to the wrong place.

“Are there other employees in the shop?” she asked.

“Only the logistics employees, but they don’t come to the front,” the slightly older attendant answered.

“What kind of logistics employees would a jewelry shop need?” Elise couldn’t understand.

“Oh, you know, a couple of employees to clean the shop, take out the trash, move some things, and so on.”

In fact, she was referring to the cleaners, but the phrase ‘logistics employees’ sounded better.

“Um, Miss, allow me to be blunt, but this is a jewelry shop, not a detective agency. We don’t have time to be playing such games as hide-and-seek with you here,” the youngest attendant spoke dismissively, relying on the fact that she was the best-performing employee in the shop to get away with it.
