Chapter 295
Megan, who wasn’t backing down, left Jane and me wide–eyed.
When I realized what was happening, I quickly pulled Megan behind me, fearing that Mrs. Shaw might involve her.
“Come at me if you have any issues.”
“Charlotte!” Megan, undeterred, faced Mrs. Shaw and said, “Didn’t you say you didn’t want this dress? Let Bethany come out and stop trying it on.”
“What!” Mrs. Shaw sneered repeatedly, showing extreme contempt. “You’re making me laugh. You’re just a small employee. Does your boss agree with what you’re saying? Do you know how much this dress costs…”
“I can buy it!” Megan puffed out her cheeks and declared this with an air of authority.
I pretended not to hear her bragging.
Mrs. Shaw, infuriated, turned pale with rage. “Charlotte, is this also your intention?”
“If you don’t like it, that’s fine,” I said with a faint smile.
Mrs. Shaw gritted her teeth and glared at Megan. “Are you sure you can afford it? This dress costs over 1 million dollars!”
“It’s only a million dollars. Ma’am, are you very poor?” Megan looked at her in confusion. “Otherwise, why would you keep harping on about something that costs just over a million?”
“You…” Mrs. Shaw, furious and red–faced, raised her hand to slap Megan.
I tried to intervene, but someone acted faster than me.
Frank came from behind us, firmly grabbing Mrs. Shaw’s forearm, and said with a stern look, “Mrs. Shaw, what did my sister do to offend you? If you tell me, I’ll have Grandma personally educate her.
I was dumbfounded, my gaze darting between him and Megan.
The brother Megan mentioned was him?
”
Mrs. Shaw’s expression froze, looking like she was about to burst, “You… she… she is your sister? Don’t talk nonsense. I’ve never seen her in the Smith family.‘
Frank didn’t respond but instead took out his phone and made a video call.
On the other end, Madam Smith answered immediately, showing her face.
“Humph, you finally have time to give me a video call?”
Frank raised an eyebrow nonchalantly. “It’s not me, Grandma. It’s that Megan and Mrs. Shaw had a little conflict. Mrs. Shaw was about to…”
“Madam Smith!” Mrs. Shaw immediately deflated like a punctured balloon. She rushed over to hold Frank’s phone and started explaining to the old lady with soft words. “It’s all a misunderstanding. Please don’t listen to what Frank said…”

As she spoke, she moved aside.
Megan turned to Frank. “Why are you here?”
Frank, impatient, said, “Why do you think? You kept asking me for a lift, and I ended up waiting for you downstairs for ages.”
‘True siblings.‘
Suddenly, I realized that the person who had asked me to pick up Megan from the University of Jelaston was actually Megan herself.
So, the pair of women’s slippers at his home must also belong to Megan.
I looked at Frank with confusion. “I haven’t seen your sister at the Jelaston Summit.”
“She didn’t come back often before,” replied Frank, glancing at Megan.
