Chapter 749 Yeah, I’m That Generous
“I’m here as a consumer, Miss Celina, and you trying to drive your own customer out of the store is a terrible idea.” As Tom was speaking, he stood up and fastened the buttons on his suit; neither his voice nor his movement showed a hint of distress.
“Do I look like I give a sh*t!? As the boss, I have the final say here, and I demand you to leave now. I will call security on you if you refuse!” Seeing how nonchalant Tom was, Celina was so agitated that she looked as if she could kill someone.
As though he was unfazed by her ferocious emotions, Tom, who was quite dissatisfied with her attitude, pointed at the card in her hand. “At least return the card to me. I hope you ain’t trying to rob me in broad daylight?” Hearing that, Celina glanced down, and it was only then did she realize what she had been holding all this time—Tom’s credit card. She threw it back at him, as if it was disgusting. “I don’t give a sh*t about your card. Just f*ck off!”
He placed the card back in his pocket and symbolically patted his clothes. “A word of advice for you—the way you’re acting toward people from the same profession is going against your own advantage. Ever heard of ‘harmony brings wealth’?”
“You’re just a dog raised by Elise! How dare you speak to me this way?! Shameless of you! Leave by yourself or else, don’t blame me for asking the guards to throw you out!” Celina crossed her arms in front of her chest, acting arrogantly.
Regardless of how well-mannered Tom usually was, he was no longer capable of being the chivalrous guy, especially after being humiliated by Celina in front of everyone. He squinted his eyes and provoked her solemnly, “Oh, so you assume that I’m a spy and you want to kick me out now? How many spies from our side do you think have ‘infiltrated’ your store today? You can chase me out, but you won’t be able to throw them all out! Even without me, Alexis will still be able to purchase all your cheap jewelry today!”
Celina got startled when she heard that, and she subconsciously looked around at the group of customers craning their necks trying to figure out what was going on—all of them suddenly looked so suspicious.
Just then, an assistant approached Celina and whispered to her, “Boss, the one at counter number two seems to be wearing the Alexis uniform. Also, I vaguely remember seeing that one at counter twelve when I went to Alexis to spy on them!”
What the assistant said ignited the rage in Celina—she could no longer contain her anger. “Guards!” The bodyguards, who were guarding outside and heard their boss shouting, quickly made their way through the crowd and reached where she was standing. “Yes, Boss?”
Pointing at the two individuals the assistant identified, Celina lost all her cool at this point. “Throw that man and that woman out!” She would not mind killing the spies herself, so merely kicking them out was already considered the utmost restraint.
After the bodyguards received the order, they walked toward the two individuals aggressively. The man was still cooperative as he left without putting up much fight. It was not the same story with the woman, though, as she got offended at the approaching human wall.
“Which one of you lowly beings dare to touch me?! We’re here as genuine consumers, and yet you treat us like trash?! We demand to speak to your manager! Just call the police already!”
It turned out that the woman came to Saunders Jewelry with her friends and family, and they were all very upset about being kicked out without any reason. The store fell into instant chaos with them quarreling and yelling at the bodyguards, and other customers watching a real-life drama. Seeing that his plan to create chaos was successful, Tom gloated over the whole situation. “Oh no, what chaos. You must be busy now trying to figure out how to calm the situation. I swear I won’t be a bother anymore.” Without waiting for a response, Tom turned around and left the store.
The customers were still yelling in the distance, and they were so loud that it was giving Celina a headache. She rubbed her temples, but she could not be bothered with whatever was happening—she was satisfied so long as she kicked out the spies Elise sent to her store.
