Fake Daughter Is The Real Legend (Iris Sutton) novel Chapter 128

Chapter 128 The Phone Call

The sales associate glanced between the two women.

One was Mrs. Wolfe, a long-time VIP customer.

The other was a Miss Noir she’d never even heard of.

Who to side with seemed obvious.

“Miss Noir… perhaps you should choose another necklace.”

Mrs. Wolfe had always gotten her way. Thanks to her family’s connections with the Barclay family, the Wolfes had been treated like royalty throughout Capital City.

Now that someone actually dared stand up to her, she became even more determined.

“You’re obviously not from Capital City. Otherwise you’d know the Wolfe family’s reputation.”

“When the Wolfe family wants something, I don’t care who reserved it first. If I want it, then it’s mine.”

She looked Iris up and down with open disdain.

“Someone dressed like you actually thinks she belongs in a jewelry store?”

Seeing more and more customers gathering to watch, the sales associate grew nervous.

“Miss Noir, please consider another design. I can offer you a discount. If you don’t like anything else, we’ll refund your deposit.”

They were making their choice.

They wanted her to leave.

Iris remained perfectly calm. “I reserved this necklace. If I don’t agree to give it up, then no one has the right to sell it. If you aren’t authorized to handle this, call your manager.”

Left with no other option, the sales associate reluctantly went to fetch him.

After hearing what had happened, the store manager shook his head.

“You’re still inexperienced. In situations like this, you can’t pressure only one customer. Watch how I handle it.”

He walked toward the counter.

The moment he saw Mrs. Wolfe and Iris…

….he stopped.

Something felt strangely familiar.

The young woman who had reserved the necklace…

Where had he seen her before?

Mrs. Wolfe impatiently tapped her manicured nails against the glass display.

“Well? Are you going to ring it up or not? I have places to be.”

She was absolutely determined to leave with Heart of Dawn today.

Who did this so-called Miss Noir think she was?

As far as she knew, Richard Noir had only one daughter-Chloe Noir.

Then Iris spoke.

“So this is how C Jewelry treats its customers?”

She paused, her voice calm but unmistakably cold.

“In that case… I don’t see any reason for us to continue our partnership.”

The manager went completely still.

That voice…

He suddenly remembered.

Iris Sulton.

Panic flashed across his face. He shoved the sales associate beside him.

“What are you standing there for? Hurry and bring Miss Sutton some drinks!”

Iris corrected him evenly.

“My surname is Noir now.”

“Yes-yes, of course! I’m terribly sorry, Miss Noir!”

Mrs. Wolfe frowned as she watched the manager’s attitude change instantly.

Even so….

The young woman wasn’t wearing a single recognizable luxury label.

She still didn’t look wealthy.

“Miss Noir, please have some tea. I had no idea you were the one who reserved Heart of Dawn.”

Iris looked at him. “So if it hadn’t been me… would it have been acceptable to sell someone else’s reservation?”

The manager lowered his head without hesitation.

“… You’re right. That was entirely our mistake.”

After apologizing, he turned to Mrs. Wolfe.

“Mrs. Wolfe, I’m very sorry. This necklace was reserved by Miss Noir. We can’t sell it to you.”

“When next season’s collection arrives, you’ll be the very first customer invited to view it.”

“Would that be acceptable?”

Mrs. Wolfe stared at him in disbelief. “You’re actually choosing to offend me? I’m one of your biggest customers!”

The manager sighed. “You may not know this… but Miss Noir is one of C Jewelry’s primary gemstone suppliers. A large portion of our raw stones comes directly from her.”

Among the three giants of Africa’s gemstone industry…

Miss Noir alone controlled one of them.

If C Jewelry lost her as a supplier, rival companies would seize the opportunity immediately.

Mrs. Wolfe scoffed. “Her?”

She quickly regained her composure. Still clutching Heart of Dawn, she made no attempt to return it.

“So what if she’s a supplier? Do you know the Barclay family?”

The more she talked, the more smug she became.

“My daughter grew up with the future head of the Barclay family. She’ll practically be the
