When the saleswoman heard the conversation between Mrs. Harper and Xyla, she finally realized that they were trying to humiliate Sophia. All of a sudden, she could feel her nerves tingling as she was afraid that Sophia would cause a scene if she was enraged.
She knew that Taylor Murray was not only an internationally renowned Academy Award for Best Actor winner, but he also had a close connection with the Fletcher Family in Bayside City. That was why most people were scared of offending him.
Why does a small Harper Family have the courage to insult Michael’s wife?
However, she wasn’t able to clarify it on the spot. If she accidentally revealed Taylor’s hidden marriage, she would have no way to gain a foothold in this industry ever again.
Yesterday, when Michael and her were trying out the rings, she seemed to remember wearing this ring before, but it was taken off by Michael immediately.
Michael hated the ring for not being compelling enough.
These are the favorites of big bosses and upstarts.
After that, Xyla chose two rings for her and Richard to try. The rings seemed to be tailor-made for the two of them as they looked gaudy and bright.
When the two of them stood together to compare the rings, Xyla pulled Sophia purposely and chirped, “Sophia, look at this. Do you think this suits us for our engagement?”
Sophia’s face was calm and emotionless. It was as though she was looking at two dogs mating in front of her, and they did it purposely for her to watch. When she tried to turn her head away and leave, the dogs would bark and threaten to bite her if she dared to leave. Therefore, she was forced to stand and watch.
She nodded. “Yes. It suits you.”
“Madam Harper, you are so lucky. Your son is a brilliant man, and your daughter-in-law is very pretty too!”
“What a perfect match!”
Mrs. Harper was so pleased with herself that she began gloating. “Of course they are. Only a good girl like Xyla deserves the hands of my Richard.”
At the moment, Xyla’s face was flushed as she buried herself inside Richard’s arms. The affectionate interaction between them was echoed by the happiness on their face.
Just like that, Sophia looked at them as though they were two dogs mating. Not only did they prevent her from leaving, their owner also looked around for other people to praise how majestic their mating posture was.
Therefore, Sophia picked up her bag and uttered, “Since you are done choosing, I’ll leave now.”
Seeing the ‘lonely’ and ‘fleeing’ Sophia, Xyla didn’t want to let her go just yet, so she took out her phone and gave it to her. “Sophia, can you help take a picture of me and Richard?”
Sophia received her phone and took a picture of both of them. After she was done, she prepared to return the phone, but Xyla stomped her foot and whined, “Sophia, help us take a few more.”
Sophia resisted the anger inside of her by comforting herself, They are just two dogs… They are just two dogs. Not only are they forcing me to watch them mate, but they are also asking me to take pictures of them.
Therefore, she reluctantly took a few more pictures. In the shots, the two of them were very affectionate as they kissed, hugged, pouted and stared at each other.
After a few pictures, Sophia returned the phone to Xyla and prepared to leave, but Xyla still wouldn’t let her go. She knew that Sophia was now crying her heart out inside!
“Sophia, I feel that you have good taste. Please continue helping me choose a ring!” Xyla dragged her inside deliberately.
Sophia really wanted to hit her right now, but suddenly, her eyes rolled around and landed on a popular counter on the side. She pointed at a series of rings and said, “Look at that. That looks nice!”
