Contract Marriage: The Replacement Groom

106 Causing trouble

“I don’t have a problem. These people are irritating. Can’t we just get them settled once and for all?” Valen frowned. St upid things like this cannot happen in Country M. River of blood would have washed over the mall already. 1

“This is Rose City, a little too lawful,” Jeslyn stated as she caressed Valen’s hair.

She knew why she was being looked down on. The reason she had a clothing store that nobody but her grandfather knew about was that she was disrespected by a salesperson who happened to be the boss’ side chick.

Angered that the girl wasn’t fired after all the insult and disrespect, Jeslyn bought the company, went to the slum, and took in a person whom the problem of the world had broken, thinking Rita wouldn’t be greedy because she was once betrayed by a friend and understood how much it hurt.

She could have done a similar thing to this salesperson right now. But she had no money. Jeslyn sighed.

The other saleslady couldn’t object because Joan was the senior salesperson in the store. Going against her would mean getting fired. Not wanting such trouble upon herself, she handed the card back to Jeslyn, bowed to her, and left.”

“Miss Youan, please can I have your card now?… You are right on time, the company just established a 30% discount rule on every cloth a customer buys. I can see you bought a lot and also saved yourself a lot of money.” She smiled.

“No, no, no, please don’t bother about the discount. I’m not shopping for the discount.” Youan smiled shyly.

“Miss Youan is so generous.” Joan chuckled.
