The Billionaire's Ex-Wife Returns (Lucy and Landon) novel Chapter 29

Chapter 29: Manipulating the Whole Scenario

Getting a resounding and painful slap on the face woke the store manager from her delusions.

She no longer considered Emma and her other two friends as someone who was still young and immature. They were nothing but lawless people!

"You slapped me?" the store manager held one side of her face with her hand and glared at Sophie.

Sophie was slightly surprised when another person suddenly appeared to stop them. Why did she come here?

But instead of feeling apologetic for slapping the store manager, Sophia was enraged by the glare she got from the former.

"Yes, I did! What are you going to do about it?" Sophie replied, proud of herself.

The store manager scoffed. She repeated Sophie’s question, "What am I going to do about it?"

Suddenly, Emma had an odd premonition. But she couldn’t tell what it was. She was still bathing in the glow of pleasure in looking down at someone who was below her station.

It had been a while since she was able to relieve her stress. Her brother has grown too cold towards their family, not even coming home these past few years or seeing them during holidays. Landon didn’t even come to see their mother when she fell sick and was sent to the hospital.

And the most frustrating thing was it all started when Lucy disappeared from the mansion!

That slut never stopped giving them trouble even after she left!

Because of the changes in their home, if it could even be called that, Emma hanged out more with her friends. She spent most of her days shopping and clubbing. And there was no one to stop her because she’s the sister of the chairman of Westwood Group.

Even now, she doubted anything would affect her.

Sophie’s action only made her fill with joy and satisfaction.

But because of this, Emma didn’t see what was about to happen.

The store manager’s nostril flared. She turned around and entered a room. When she reappeared, a tablet was in her hands.

Emma, Trisha, and Sophie watched with varying emotions. Curiosity, amusement, and indifference. Altogether, they didn’t care what the store manager had in store for them as they thought of themselves as immovable.

But just as their emotions heightened to another level, three pings were heard.

It all came from their phones.

Emma’s eyebrows moved down as she wondered why their phones rang at the same time.

The timing was extremely strange.

It didn’t feel right at all!

Emma didn’t want to know what caused this. She didn’t even dare move. But her other two friends weren’t too happy when they heard the pings.

Especially, Sophie, who was still arrogantly grinning at the store manager.

"What the hell... is this real?" Beside them, Trisha uttered in shock while her head was lowered to look at her phone.

Emma and Sophie turned to her. They sent questioning looks at her.

But Trisha didn’t look their way. She had her eyes glued on her phone and her body trembled.

"No, you can’t do this! You can’t revoke my loyalty membership in the store!"

"You’re nothing but a store manager! You shouldn’t be allowed to do this!" 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮
