King's Awakening

This…

Upon hearing Betty the sales associate’s words, a bitter look also appeared on Sherry Jones’ face.

She silently pulled White Mitchell’s hand, signaling him to leave.

But, White Mitchell stood unmoving as if he was filled with stubborn determination and showed no signs of leaving.

He was curious to see to what extent this sales associate could escalate the situation today.

Seeing White Mitchell’s unmoving stand, a flash of anger quickly painted Betty’s face.

She had seen her fair share of rude customers, but even she hadn’t met someone like this. She had made her stance clear. Was she really going to have to call security to throw them out?

This was utterly outrageous!

“Sir, dragging this out won’t get you anywhere. It would indeed be quite pointless if I were to call security now, wouldn’t it?” Betty coldly remarked.

In response, White Mitchell let out a cold laugh, undeterred. He simply pulled Sherry along and confidently sat down on the nearby couch.

“You!”

The sight left Betty, the sales associate, almost fuming with rage. She couldn’t believe the audacity and thick-skinned nature of the man. It was as if he was inviting public humiliation!

“Alright, since you…” Just as Betty was about to speak, Red, the first sales associate who had attended to White Mitchell, hurriedly came over.

Out of sympathy, she wanted to help White Mitchell and Sherry, but due to Betty’s position, she did not dare to openly assist. Thus, she suggested, “Betty, cool down, maybe you could leave them to me.

Why don’t you tend to Mr. Bright and his group first? Otherwise, if the service to Mr. Bright is found lacking, I’m afraid we wouldn’t be able to answer to Rose when she returns.”

Upon hearing this, Betty reluctantly nodded. She gave White Mitchell a hateful glare, then quickly put on an obsequious smile and returned to Jacob Bright’s side.

“Mr. Bright, Miss Jones, why don’t we head to the VIP room? My colleague will handle them soon, and we won’t have to waste our time on individuals like these,” Betty said in an ingratiating tone.

Upon hearing this, Snowden Jones threw a provocative glance at Sherry Jones and then, showing off, held hands with Jacob Bright, walking into the VIP room with a triumphant face.

Upon seeing this, Betty heaved a sigh of relief while still reminding Red, “Red, get them out of here quickly!

If they end up annoying the valued customers, I’ll hold you responsible!”

Red reluctantly nodded, with a forced smile on her face. This left a bitter taste in her mouth.

After arranging these matters, Betty quickly headed deeper into the bridal store, subsequently carrying the diamond-studded wedding dress into the VIP room.

Only when Betty was out of sight did Red breathe a sigh of relief. Her heart had been pounding non-stop as she had said those words just now.

She knew very well that if Betty had figured out that she was deliberately helping White Mitchell, she may have lost her job over it.

After catching a breath of relief, Red approached White Mitchell and Sherry. Upon her arrival, Sherry expressed her gratitude.

Red politely smiled and responded, “No problem, it’s no big deal. Betty always behaves like this. She’s the boss’s favourite, so she may have said things that offended you.

But it’s all good now. You guys can leave before Betty comes back to give you more trouble.”

Sherry nodded in agreement and was about to pull White Mitchell to leave. However, White Mitchell remained unmoved and calmly said, “We appreciate your kindness.

But, we really are here to pick a wedding dress. We won’t leave until we find one.”

This…

Upon hearing this, Red was taken aback. What did he mean by that? Had her attempts to help been in vain?

Had her good intentions gone to waste?

She had done her best to smooth things over, and yet he was still being so stubborn?

Thinking about this, Red couldn’t help but say, “Sir, there’s really no need to waste so much money out of spite.

I’m also a wage earner, and I understand your difficulties. I know how important money is. The wedding gowns in our shop are indeed not something ordinary people can afford.

You should probably leave. Turn left when you go out, and walk straight to the end. There’s a bridal shop there. Their prices may be more suitable for you.”

“Brother, why don’t…” Sherry Jones stopped trying to persuade when she heard this, but White Mitchell raised his voice confidently, “No need, we stay here!”

Hearing this, Sherry Jones a strain of bitterness showed on her face as she was confused why White Mitchell insisted on staying here.

But she knew, White wasn’t the kind of person who would go beyond his means. His insistence on staying here indicated that there must be another reason.

Thinking of this, Sherry Jones said apologetically to the saleswoman Red, “Sorry, we’ll take a look ourselves. If you’re busy, you can go ahead.”

Sigh…

Seeing the firm attitude of White Mitchell, the saleswoman Red sighed helplessly. Why do people insist on saving face and torturing themselves?

Meanwhile, in the VIP room, as soon as saleswoman Betty presented the diamond-studded wedding gown in front of Snowden Jones, Snowden couldn’t take her eyes off it.

This wedding gown fulfilled all a woman’s fantasy about wedding dresses!

Luxurious yet elegant, simple yet grand, and it would perfectly accentuate one’s figure.

The only flaw lied in its waistline – it was a bit too narrow for her. It was snug on her now.

The bodice was okay, it could be padded if it lacked volume. That wouldn’t be a problem.

Thinking of this, Snowden Jones decided on starting to lose weight. She must wear this wedding gown!

But Jacob Bright, standing beside her, shuddered uncontrollably when he saw the plethora of diamonds adorning the gown.

With his discerning eye, he could naturally tell that the diamonds on the gown were real.

However, because of that, he felt a tinge of unease. The gown must be highly expensive, had the naive little saleswoman brought out the most valuable treasure of the store?

Thinking of this, Jacob Bright hastily asked the price of the gown.

The answer was a price that made people speechless.

One thousand dollars!

A single diamond on it might worth more than that.

At first, Jacob Bright thought saleswoman Red was joking, but she was very serious and even said that the store manager specifically instructed her.

“The manager specifically instructed you!?” Jacob Bright was a bit taken aback.

But at this moment, Snowden Jones looked at Jacob Bright adoringly, “Jacob, you’re amazing! This is clearly the manager showing respect to you by merely charging something symbolic like an afternoon tea fee.

You are truly great. I feel so lucky being with you. I love you, Jacob.”

Her admiring words floated Jacob’s ego up and he cast aside the doubts in his mind at once.

At this moment, he also felt his prestige was so significant, allowing the other party to give face and sell such an expensive wedding gown to him for only a thousand dollars.

Afterwards, Jacob Bright generously sent ten thousand dollars directly, “Use the extra to treat everyone to afternoon tea.”

With that, Jacob Bright left the VIP room with Snowden Jones, holding the well-packed gown, in a very triumphant manner.

But they didn’t expect, White Mitchell and Sherry Jones were still in the bridal shop!

Immediately, Snowden Jones couldn’t help but take out the wedding gown, and said to Sherry Jones showing off, “You guys haven’t left yet? Did you pick for so long and still didn’t find a gown you can afford?

Ha… Well, with the little money you have in your hands, it’s hard for you to even buy a diamond from my gown.

See this? This is the diamond-studded wedding gown Jacob bought for me. It has nine hundred and ninety-nine diamonds on it. This gown, you will never be able to afford it even you work hard all your life!”
