Agnes' Awakening: From Zero to His Whole World novel Chapter 289

Eileen turned and shot Iris another look.

"Iris, you really should start checking people's finances before letting them in. What kind of people are you letting through the door? Honestly, it's dragging my level down."

Agnes snapped, "Ma'am, what kind of attitude is that? How are you supposed to buy a dress this expensive if you won't even try it on?"

Eileen let out a cold laugh. "You've clearly never set foot in a high-end boutique before. What, your sugar daddy never taught you how this works?"

Agnes bristled. "You think having money makes you better than everyone else?"

Eileen flicked open her purse and pulled out a black card, handing it to Iris.

A mocking smile curled across her lips, her voice rising with arrogance.

"Wrap this dress up for me. I'll take it.

"Might as well give this girl a lesson in what real high society looks like and how the rich actually shop."

The gown had been sitting in the store for a long time.

It wasn't that it lacked appeal. It was simply too expensive for most people to even consider.

Iris accepted the black card and hesitated, double-checking.

"Ms. Schuman, are you sure you want to purchase this gown?"

Eileen scoffed. "Do I look like I'm joking? Stop wasting time and run the card."

Then she turned sharply and ordered Hannah and Priscilla to throw Agnes out.

"Look at this place. You just let any random nobody walk in. Now, can we clear the place or not?"

Just as she finished speaking, Iris came hurrying back, slightly out of breath, and handed the black card back.

"I'm sorry, Ms. Schuman. Your card is showing a transaction error. It won't go through."

Eileen's face darkened instantly, her voice turning sharp.

"That's impossible! This card has no limit. How could that happen?"

Then something clicked in her mind. "How much is the dress?"

Iris smiled politely. "Nine hundred million."

"H-how much?" Eileen staggered back a step, nearly losing her balance.

Iris repeated it calmly, still respectful. "Nine hundred million, Ms. Schuman. Would you like to try another card?"

Eileen's face shifted between pale and flushed as she stood there frozen, sweat starting to bead on her forehead.

Agnes coughed lightly, barely suppressing her smile, her tone laced with amusement.

"Oh wow, ma'am, it's just 900 million. Why are you reacting like that?

"Your so-called high-society shopping style is really... something else. Heh."

Eileen's face turned bright red as she reluctantly dug through her purse.

Agnes tilted her head. "If you can't manage it, just forget it. I'll pretend I didn't hear anything."
