Chapter 658: Chapter 658
Serena’s laugh was laced with fury. "Do you all have any idea? My spending alone is a hundred—maybe even a thousand times—what your average customer shells out."
"Yes, we have considered this. Please leave as soon as possible," came the unwavering reply.
The sales associates neatly arranged her thirty-some shopping bags at the entrance, a silent signal that her patronage was no longer desired.
Fuming and humiliated, Serena snapped, "Fetch your manager! Is this how a top-tier brand treats its VIP clients?"
"I’m sorry, but you’ve been blacklisted by our store. And yes, this comes straight from the manager," the salesperson said.
"What did you say?" Serena’s face turned a shade of thunder.
"This way, please," the sales team said in unison, bowing slightly with a gesture that suggested she exit the premises.
Enraged beyond belief, Serena could barely contain herself. "It seems your brand doesn’t value its VIPs. Fine! I’ll take my complaint to your superiors and see if they also turn away from good business!"
"Even a complaint to our headquarters won’t change a thing. Please, leave."
With that, Serena stormed out, her heels clicking sharply against the floor.
Once she was gone, the manager turned to Guti. "You too—get out!"
"Manager! If you don’t stop your blabbering and upset Mrs. Griffith further, we’ll all suffer the consequences! Now go!"
Tears in her eyes, Guti cast a longing look towards the second floor, wishing Mrs. Griffith would show mercy.
She had no idea the plainly dressed girl downstairs was Mrs. Griffith’s own niece.
If she had known, she wouldn’t have dared to cross her—not for all the money in the world.
As Guti left in tears, the manager sternly warned the rest, "Keep your eyes open from now on. Don’t cross someone without knowing who they are! If this happens again, the fallout will be much worse!"
"Yes, Manager," they chorused.
The manager, having scolded staff, hurried upstairs to find Eunice and explain.
"My apologies for disturbing your shopping, ladies. The ignorant lady from before has been escorted out. She’s on our blacklist and will never set foot here again. Also, the sales associate—Guti—who offended Miss Rose has been dismissed. The two dresses that caught your eye, please consider them a gift from our store. I hope you and the young miss can forgive the unpleasantness caused by those uncouth individuals."
Eunice, still browsing the racks, asked languidly without glancing up, "Does the Griffith family need these two dresses?"
"Of course not, ma’am. The whole world knows of your family’s wealth. The dresses are a token of our sincerest apologies for the discomfort you’ve experienced in our establishment. As the manager, the guilt weighs heavily on me."
"It seems our discomfort isn’t a grave concern in your eyes."
The manager, taken aback and troubled by the implication, hastily offered, "Furthermore, from now on, when you or the young miss shop here, you will receive an additional 20% discount on top of the membership price!"
It was practically selling at cost.
They had no choice. Offending someone of such stature had already cost them dearly.
"What was she wearing?" Eunice asked casually, picking out a particularly stylish dress from the display. "What did she look like?"
The manager, realizing whom Eunice referred to, described promptly, "She was in a pink CNL suit with a white beret, and had long, wavy brown hair."
Eunice gracefully fished her phone out of her purse and dialed Gordon with a languid air of casual indifference.
"Put the word out. If anyone on Style Plaza dares to sell anything to a person in a pink CNL suit, sporting a white beret and brown, wavy locks, they can kiss their spot in this zip code goodbye."
The store manager’s eyes widened in alarm, frantically signaling the sales associates downstairs with a flurry of gestures to shut the shop immediately. The last thing they needed was another clueless customer inciting Eunice’s ire.
After finishing her call and having her selected outfits brought to her, Eunice descended the staircase with an air of unrivaled elegance. She had the kind of presence that always turned heads, dressed to the nines in a way that only a lady of her stature and wealth could pull off.
A sales associate led the way, clearing a path for her.
Approaching Rosemary, Eunice smiled warmly. "Rose, these are the pieces I picked out for you. Do you like them?"
The manager, eager to please, pushed the chosen outfits toward Rosemary and said respectfully, "Miss, everything’s here. Your aunt really spoils you, picking out so many lovely items in one go."
Rosemary hadn’t expected her aunt’s taste to be so impeccable. Every garment was exactly to her liking and had a unique flair. Her lips curled up in delight. "They’re all gorgeous. I love them."
"That’s great. Why don’t you try them on? I bet they’ll look even better on you," Eunice beamed, before turning to the store manager. "Remember, if your brand does well, don’t forget my niece’s part in it."
After all, her darling niece was like a walking billboard, offering free promotion wherever she went.
"Of course, we’ll never forget Miss Rose’s contribution," the manager replied with a deferential smile.
Just then, sales associate Lucy approached, carrying several shopping bags. "Ma’am, these are the items Miss Rose chose, all paid for. She said they’re a gift for you."
Eunice was touched that her beloved niece had spent time downstairs picking out clothes for her. Her smile grew even more radiant. "I’ll try them on as well." Her eyes softened with affection as she looked at Rosemary.
The surrounding sales staff were stunned. They had never seen the usually commanding and aristocratic lady show such tenderness.
Meanwhile...
Serena had called Martin’s guys to load her thirty-some shopping bags into the car. After recomposing herself, she resumed her shopping spree, planning to settle scores with Rosemary later!
But when she reached the entrance of a top-tier designer boutique, the sales associate was about to close the door.
"Why are you closing now?" Serena asked, perplexed, as she stepped forward, eager to browse.
The boutique was known for its luxury handbags, and there was a new model released that day she had her eye on for ages. If she didn’t buy it now, it would be gone!
"Apologies, we’re expecting a VIP shortly," the sales associate explained politely.
At the mention of "VIP," Serena scoffed in derision. "What level of spender qualifies as a VIP in your books? I might have more clout than your so-called VIP—able to bring in more sales and profit for your store."
Who the VIP was remained to be seen!
The sales associate let out a small chuckle. "Miss, this VIP’s status is such that even if she doesn’t buy a single thing, she’s still a VIP in our store—always."
Serena’s expression soured. "Are you talking about Rosemary?"
The sales associate seemed not to recognize the name. "I’m sorry, I don’t know whom you’re referring to."
"Then who else could this VIP be?" Serena questioned, still puzzled.
