Chapter 83
" Okay, so at what price? " Rose inquired, she was aware that the woman in front of her hated her a lot and would never be so nice as to do something for her for free.
And as expected Nancy's next words confirmed her thoughts.
" I can give it to you provided that you'll pay me two times the actual price of the set which is $3m " Nancy replied confidently.
' is this woman crazy? ' The assistant thought.
" Oh? "
" Yes. "
" Oh, let me think. " Rose crossed her hands on her chest and pretended to be in deep thoughts.
Seeing this, Nancy was already rejoicing inwardly.
She was already making plans with what she'll do with the money.
" Well, I am not interested, I'll just go for another brand. " Rose said all of a sudden, completely shocking Nancy.
" But, I... Thought you needed it urgently? " Nancy stammered a little why saying this.
" Oh, not I wanted to purchase it for someone but since it has been booked I'll go for another brand. " Rose said with a faint but mocking Smile.
Nancy clenched her fists realizing that Rose was mocking her.
" Okay. " She managed to reply with a faint smile.
The Assistant Cheered for Rose in her mind.
At that moment she became a fan of Rose.
" Let's go check out clothes from Sapphire brand. " Rose told Lucia.
" Alright, Auntie. " Lucia replied and they soon walked away from where Nancy and the assistant were.
Seeing That Rose opted to go for Sapphire brand.
The Women who initially came to the mall to purchase channel brand but couldn't as it as already been booked all decided to go for Sapphire brand which was readily available in the mall.
As Sapphire New brand of Shoes and bags was released a month ago there were lots of sets of it in the Boutique so they didn't have to worry about not getting a set.
Nancy on the other hand was burning with anger and hate.
She didn't have enough money to purchase the two sets, she was initially thinking of asking her daughter to send the remaining money to her.
As she didn't want to lose face she went to a side and began dialing her daughter's number but much to her dismay.
Her Daughter refused to pick up the call.
" That darned girl! " Nancy cursed.
Nancy then decided to swallow her pride and then spoke to the assistant who was still waiting for her.
" I have changed my mind, I'll purchase only a set of the brand. "
" Alright, ma'am. " The assistant replied respectfully but she was scoffing inwardly.
' She didn't have enough money to pay for the two sets but just wanted to show off in front of Rose Quinn, so Shameless. '
After choosing the set, Nancy went over to the counter to pay for the set.
She glared at Rose who was choosing Shoes and bags with Lucia.
The latter was asking Lucia about the design of shoes and bags she preferred when she felt Nancy's burning gaze on her but she decided to ignore it.
What's the use of Engaging in a staring contest with a paper tiger?
The Cashier requested Nancy's card and the latter brought out a silver-plated card.
The cashier nodded and then proceed to put it into the machine.
But the purchase wasn't completed due to insufficient funds in the card.
" Ma'am there isn't enough money on your card. " The cashier informed her.
" What! How is that even possible! I have got $1.5m on my card! " Nancy said angrily.
" Well, why don't you check your main balance, Ma'am? " The cashier said politely.
" Alright, wait a sec. " Nancy said as she brought out her phone and then checked the balance.
She got the shock of her life when she realized that her main balance was $500k but how Is this possible? She thought.
After all her daughter sent $1m to her account so how did this happen?
What if her daughter never sent the money and she only got a fake alert?
But her daughter would never do that right? She'll never go against her as she can destroy the latter's career with the snap of her fingers, right?
Or so she thought.
Meanwhile, seeing that everything was going as planned.
Lucia took out her cell phone which was in her small purse and then made a call.
" Hey, Little Lucia! How is it going? " The voice from the other side greeted cheerfully.
" It's going as planned, Sis. You don't have to worry much. " Lucia replied.
" That's good, Thanks for helping me, please send my regards to Miss Rose. " She said.
" Yeah, I'll. " Lucia replied as the call got disconnected.
Immediately Christiana ended the call with Lucia she switched off her phone as she was very well aware that her mom would try to call her.
And as expected, Nancy was indeed trying to call Her daughter but the latter's phone was switched off.
" What the fuck! " Nancy caused loudly completely ruining her perfect image.
" Do you have another card, Ma'am? " The cashier enquired.
" Well,... I don't.."
" Oh, I am so sorry to say, Ma'am but the purchase won't be completed if you don't pay up or if you... "
" I'll pay. " Rose's Voice rang out.
Nancy turned and saw Rose smiling at her.
She wondered when the latter got there, The latter was still choosing Stuff a while ago so how come?
" You don't have to do that, I will... "
" Oh, aren't you planning to attend a tea party tomorrow? Or do you have another plan? " Rose asked her with a knowing smile.
" How did you... " She wanted to ask Rose how she knew but she got Interrupted.
" I can get information on whatever and anybody I want as long as the person resides in Country A," Rose replied Proudly.
Seeing this, Rose instructed the Cashier, " You can Bill it on me. "
" Alright, ma'am. " The cashier replied collecting the Golden Card from Rose.
As Daniel Owned shares of the boutique he was given a golden card which was owned by Only three shareholders, The owner of The Boutique, Daniel Romero, and Adam Standford.
He handed the card over to Rose who refused it at first but accepted it after much consideration.
Soon, the transactions were done.
" See you next time, Mrs. Quinn. " Rose said to Nancy with a smirk as she along with Lucia walked out of the restaurant.
Rose didn't practically help Nancy as the $1m she spent on her was part of the money they got from the latter's husband Gregor Quinn.
So well.
Nancy who now held the bag which contained the set of Clothing was very embarrassed.
" Rose Quinn is so cool, I love her! "
" She's so innocent and loving! "
" Wait, she called her Mr. Quinn, does that mean that she's Gregor Quinn's wife? "
" I guess so, no wonder she's so arrogant. "
" But wait, I heard that Gregor Quinn is into gambling and drinking, unlike his brother who built his company from the scratch. "
" Yeah, I am so glad that Rose showed her place today. "
" Same here. "
" Though Rose ' Helped ' Nancy it only added Salt to her wound as the latter made her more of a laughing stock than she would have if she wasn't able to purchase the goods. "
Stomping her feet, Nancy walked out of the restaurant angrily.
