Chapter 311 He Is Married
Gizem calmly questioned, “Where did such crazy people come from?”
“Who are you calling crazy?” Joanna scowled.
“You guys, of course. You randomly accused me of wearing your dress. If it were yours, why would it be hanging here?”
“I asked the shop assistant to reserve it for me!” Joanna pushed the staff member forward and snapped, “Tell her!”
The shop assistant started stammering as she did not know what to say.
She knew she could not afford to offend either party.
Gizem remarked, “Speak the truth will do. What are you afraid of?”
“That’s right. You’d better speak the truth.” Joanna glared at the shop assistant as if she was going to devour the latter.
The shop assistant was stuck in a dilemma.
“Well, to be honest…” She hesitated before continuing, “When Ms. Hurst left, she did not ask me to reserve the dress.”
Joanna glowered at the staff. “What did you just say? How dare you lie? Get me the manager!”
Feeling aggrieved, the shop assistant replied, “You definitely did not ask me to reserve it. Also, just so you’re aware, we have surveillance cameras here.”
“I bet you are only siding with her because you’ve received her money!” Flustered and exasperated, Joanna fumed, “Get me the manager! I’ll have you fired!”
The shop assistant was speechless.
This woman definitely did not ask me to reserve it!
When Levi came back and saw the confrontation, he frowned.
“What happened?” he asked in a calm tone.
“These two are accusing me of wearing their dress,” Gizem explained frigidly. “They are also demanding to speak to the manager.”
Levi’s aquamarine eyes narrowed. “Then, let’s just get the manager.”
As soon as Joanna saw Levi, her eyes shone in amazement.
Levi had the enchanting facial features of a supermodel. His body was nothing but perfect as it looked like the type that would look lean in clothes yet muscular when bare.
The man was undoubtedly the type to look majestic when he was stern.
“Go get the manager.” Levi gazed at the shop assistant calmly.
The shop assistant went to the counter to make a phone call.
“Are you her boyfriend?” Joanna asked curiously.
Levi smirked. “That’s none of your business.”
Joanna was stunned speechless.
After a moment, a woman came over in a hurry.
When she saw Levi, her expression changed drastically. “Mr. Levi!”
Levi stated blandly, “I don’t want to waste my breath, so I’ll get to the point. This dress was picked out by my woman first. Yet, this woman says it’s hers and is making a scene here.”
Gizem knitted her brows. Who’s his woman again?
The manager turned toward the shop assistant. “What’s going on?”
“Ms. Cromwell, Ms. Hurst insists that she had asked me to reserve this dress for her, but I am very sure she never said such a thing. We have surveillance cameras at the reception counter, so you will know I’m not lying after checking the footage,” the shop assistant explained nervously.
“You are indeed lying!” Joanna was practically seething.
“Since there are surveillance cameras, let’s just check the footage,” Levi remarked nonchalantly. “If there is proof that they are lying, get them to compensate for their mistake as an apology.”
The manager quickly nodded. “Of course.”
Joanna started to get nervous.
She, in fact, did not ask the shop assistant to reserve the dress.
Judging by the way the staff treated Levi, she knew that the man must be someone influential.
The shop assistant immediately went to retrieve the surveillance footage as this was the perfect opportunity to clear her name.
Joanna frostily uttered, “I’ll have you know I’m Samuel Macari’s girlfriend!”
She was sure that Samuel’s name would be enough to scare them into submission.
The manager frowned. She’s Samuel Macari’s girlfriend?
Levi asked in a distant voice, “Samuel has a girlfriend?”
“Of course! He simply doesn’t want to make our relationship public!” Joanna huffed.
“Ha!” Levi scoffed. “What a coincidence. It just so happens that I know him, so why don’t we get him to drop by for a moment?”
As he spoke, he fished out his phone.
Joanna bit her lip as her nerves were starting to show.
It was at that moment that the shop assistant exclaimed, “I found the footage!”
