In the Lap of Luxury novel (Grace and Benjamin) novel Chapter 466

"Don't do it, Ms. Green."

The assistant tried to talk Kayla out of it. But Kayla ignored her and threw the necklace on the floor.

"I don't ever want to see items like this ever again."

Everyone in the room looked at each other in bewilderment. They were all at a loss for words.

The assistant quickly crouched down and picked up the necklace.

With her head bowed, she said respectfully, "Ms. Green, if you don't like this necklace, I'll request a new one from the company. But you can't wear the one you're wearing now in public."

Kayla's expression darkened. With a scowl on her face, she crossed her arms and said haughtily, "What if I insist on wearing it?"

The assistant pursed her lips and said weakly, "I'm afraid you can't do that, Ms. Green."

"You dare defy me? Do you know what happens to people who do that?"

With her head held high, Kayla said in a cold and condescending tone, "Talk back to me again, and I'll have you fired from your position."

As soon as she said that, a woman's voice rang out. "Oh? I'd like to see who's bold enough to try that!"

Lydia walked through the crowd toward them. Tears welled up in the assistant's eyes when she saw Lydia.

She called out with a sob, "Ms. York!"

Lydia patted her on the back to comfort her. Then, she turned toward Kayla.

"It's our fault we brought the wrong piece, Ms. Green. But there's no need to make a mountain out of a molehill."

Kayla snorted irritably. She didn't think Lydia was worthy of her attention.

Initially, she had thought Lydia would be from a rich family since she had grown up with Grace. Hence, she had gotten someone to look into Lydia's background. The results were completely unexpected.
