Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy chapter 753
“Aunty, it was all just an accident. Even if your clothes are expensive, there’s no need for us to pay the full price in compensation, is there?“
Although Zayne was not the oldest among the four, he was the calmest and most reserved one. He continued to persuade the woman, “It’s not a large spill either, so the clothes will still be wearable after dry-cleaning it. The average dry cleaner in Banyan City charges about eighty to a hundred dollars, so why not let my friend give you two hundred dollars in compensation for your dry-cleaning fees? How does that sound?“
Shannon could not help feeling stunned when she saw the way Zayne smiled courteously at the woman. This young man, who wore glasses and spent most of his time immersed in his work, was surprisingly calm and gentle when dealing with difficult people.
“Two hundred dollars for my dry-cleaning? “ The woman, alas, was still dissatisfied with Zayne’s offer. “What difference do two hundred dollars make? Who do you think I am?“ She gave all four of them a once-over.
“Tsk, tsk. “ She snorted in indignation and looked at them with an expression of contempt. “All four of you are well-dressed and seem to be well-off. How can you not be able to pay fifty thousand dollars in compensation?“
This middle-aged woman had a loud voice, so naturally, everyone else in the cafeteria looked over in their direction. Seeing that she had garnered the crowd’s attention, the woman continued triumphantly, “You bumped into me and ruined my fifty thousand dollars dress, but now you refuse to pay for the damage… If you’re poor, don’t be so haughty! You guys look well-dressed, but I bet you can’t pay for my dress even with all four of you combined.
“What a pity. I’m not a successful businesswoman at all. I’m just a maid who looks after Ms. Blake and takes care of her, yet I earn more than you. What a joke! “
Shannon’s expression darkened as soon as she heard this. Even Zayne, who usually maintained his cool even in tough situations, looked displeased.
This was just a small matter, but why was this woman trying to blow everything out of proportion and look down on them?
