At that moment The saleslady’s heart raced with excitement. Finally, justice was about to be served. She couldn't believe the so-called elites thought they could walk around, throwing insults and acting superior just because they had platinum cards. But today, they would learn that money alone didn’t make them untouchable.She turned to Jason with a polite but eager expression. “Do you still want to see the dress, sir?”Jason gave her a calm nod. “Bring it in.”Immediately her smile widened. “Please, follow me.”The moment she spoke, the atmosphere in the store shifted. Whispers floated through the air as customers turned their attention toward them. Even the arrogant ones, who had been loud just moments ago, found themselves trailing behind with cautious steps.The group walked deeper into the luxurious shopping mall, passing section after section of designer clothes, jewelry, and accessories. The air smelled of expensive perfumes, and the soft music playing overhead only added to

At that moment Hazel’s cousin erupted into laughter, clutching his stomach as if this was the funniest thing he had ever witnessed.“Hazel!” he called out between laughs, shaking his head. “How exactly are you going to pay five million dollars?” He wiped a tear from the corner of his eye before smirking. “Your dad’s whole house isn’t even worth five million dollars!”The statement sent another wave of murmurs through the crowd. People whispered among themselves, some chuckling, some shaking their heads in amusement.Then Hazel clenched her fists.This was humiliating.She shot a glare at her cousin, but she wasn’t done. “Even if you were really part of the Parker family,” she continued, voice dripping with mockery, “you wouldn’t dare spend five million on a single piece of clothing.”More laughter followed.Hazel turned to Jason, eyes burning with frustration.“Jason,” she hissed. “That dress is five million dollars.” She gestured toward it as if she still couldn’t believe what she wa

The moment the staff member returned with the mop and bucket, something unexpected happened.The main entrance swung open with force.The air in the room shifted as the manager stormed in, his polished shoes clicking against the marble floor.Behind him, a group of men in black suits followed, their presence exuding silent authority.The laughter, the taunts, the amusement—everything died instantly.The manager’s sharp voice cut through the silence like a blade.“What the hell is going on here?!”The command boomed, making even the security guards flinch.All eyes darted to the saleslady.She stood frozen for a moment, her heart pounding.Why was the manager here?This was supposed to be her moment. She had planned everything perfectly—she was going to handle this situation flawlessly and then report to the manager afterward.If she had executed everything smoothly, the owners of DF Shopping Mall would hear about her.They would praise her.Maybe even promote her.But now—the manager

Jason shook his head. “Nope. My friend doesn’t like strangers.”Hazel frowned but didn’t push.The Rolls-Royce glided smoothly through the city streets until they reached their destination—Summer’s father’s house.The place was simple but well-kept, a reflection of the man who lived there.Inside, Summer was tending to her father, adjusting his blankets and making sure he was comfortable.The moment she saw them, her brows furrowed.“What took you so long?” she demanded, arms crossed.Hazel, still half-drained from the ordeal, let out a deep sigh.“You won’t believe what we just went through,” she muttered.She then launched into the full story, sparing no details.Summer’s eyes widened. Her mouth opened, closed, then opened again.“You’re telling me,” she said slowly, “that Jason—Jason—just casually threw down five million dollars for a dress?!”Hazel nodded.Summer glanced at Jason, who looked completely unfazed.“I don’t even know why I’m still surprised,” she muttered under her br

At that moment Jason leaned back in his chair, his expression calm, almost amused.“How much are you willing to pay for me to return the dress?”The CEO studied him for a moment, then smirked.“I’ll give you two million dollars.”Jason raised an eyebrow. “Two million?”She nodded. “You’ve already taken all the praise for buying it. Giving you the full amount would be a loss for me.”At that moment Jason exhaled lightly, as if he found the situation ridiculous.Then, he shook his head. “That won’t work for me.”The woman arched a brow. “Oh? And why not?”Jason’s gaze didn’t waver. “Because if people see that the dress is back in the store in less than a day,” he said smoothly, “then I’d be the biggest loser of them all.”His tone was calm, but firm.The CEO’s smirk faltered slightly.Jason continued, his voice dropping just a notch lower. “If you really want the dress back, give me ten million dollars, and I’ll hand it over.”The scene went silent.For a moment, there was nothing but
