Silly Bride

Chapter 312

a contemptuous smirk playing about her lips, she cast a peek at Lucas. “Oh, I get it now. You two must be a couple—a couple of paupers. You want to speak up for her, don’t you? Why don’t you pay for those two dresses that caught her eye, then? But I should remind you that they each cost more than a hundred thousand, and they don’t go well with flats, just so you know. Pfft. Some people can be so pretentious. They rather hog the good stuff despite knowing that it’ll be wasted on them,” she said, her tone cynical.Lucas only found the woman’s words humorous. He stared at the latter as if she were some clown. “Don’t you know that even if we were to throw them away, they still wouldn’t fit you? Feeling jealous is your only way out.”With that said, Lucas wrapped his arm around Winnie’s shoulders and continued with a mischievous grin, “Darling, I’m thinking of buying you every single piece of clothing in this shop. What say you? If you think those flats of yours would look out of place, we could always let our wolfhound wear them.”Wolfhound? Only he could come up with an idea like that at a time like this. Winnie sneaked a peek at Lucas on that note.With a tinge of disdain in her eyes, she pulled away Lucas’ hand from her shoulders.In all seriousness, she refuted, “Your suggestion sounds really good. Even so, I don’t think it would be necessary for you to pick up the tab. I can do it myself.”“Tsk.” The woman standing opposite them unwittingly rolled her eyes. “Excuse me. I understand it’s not a crime to show off, but please, you guys should at least try to tamp it down a little. Do you really have what it takes to buy everything that is in this shop? What a joke.”Winnie couldn’t be bothered by those sardonic comments. A glance was all she gave to the woman. Following that, Winnie waved at one of the salespeople and demanded, “Bring me your store manager.”Truth be told, the salespeople had already caught sight of the commotion that had been going on. Still, none of them had chosen to step in because things hadn’t gone out of hand yet.Looking at Winnie who wasn’t clad in branded clothes, the salespeople had zero knowledge of Winnie’s identity. On the flip side, they could easily recognize the other bad-tempered woman, who was none other than Shania Hamilton. Shania was a starlet who had made quite a name for herself after debuting in a web series. Before shooting to stardom, she had always been a nobody; after becoming famous, she, however, began to behave like a stuck-up snob despite not making it to the B-list.Although she was well-known for having a terrible temper, Lady Luck smiled at her and granted her a wealthy sponsor. Because of that, the vast majority of people wouldn’t dare to mess with her.Alas, no one would have ever expected her to trigger an argument with another customer. What made matters worse was that the other party didn’t even know who Shania was, let alone exercise forbearance toward the latter.Putting the ruckus aside, it was a scene so gratifying for one to witness firsthand how the poser Shania was being snapped at.As the salespeople enjoyed the drama, they eventually summoned the store manager over.Without further ado, Winnie fished out a nationwide limited edition Centurion Card then and there.“I’m getting all the ladies’ wear you have for today. Oh, right. The only exception would be that piece on that woman over there because it’s been stained.”Seeing Winnie’s card, the store manager went wide-eyed with her mouth agape, but she still accepted the card.Considering that the store manager had a knack for distinguishing a person’s status, she instantly put forward an inquiry. “Sorry to intrude, miss, but are you Ms. Vivian Speiser, if I may ask?”Winnie was taken aback to have
