Supreme Mars novel Chapter 178

Leo and Lydia stopped, watching this in astonishment.

Soon, Leo realized what was happening.

The shop assistant did say that dress was not for sale, but now she sold it to other people. In addition, this was Leo’s first date with Lydia. How could he bear this humiliation?

Perceiving Leo’s anger, Lydia unexpectedly held his hand.

Leo immediately calmed down and looked back at Lydia in amazement, “Lydia?”

“Let it go. It’s just a clothes.” Lydia looked so peaceful as if she was not disturbed by this issue at all.

Leo suddenly felt respectful to her.

People who are successful are all open-minded.

Lydia didn’t want to fight with the woman over a dress. Was Lydia afraid of her?

No, she was not.

That was because Lydia was generous.

There are only a few people who can be truly open-minded in the world.

Lydia made it clear that she gave up the skirt. But Leo smiled, “You are right. But the thing that my wife likes was taken away by others. As a man, I have to do something.”

When Leo said that, he became determined, “I said I would give you everything you want by all means.” Then he strided into the shop.

Moved by Leo, Lydia hesitated for a fraction of a second and followed him.

By now this skirt had been wrapped, waiting for the payment.

Seeing Leo and Lydia coming back, the shop assistant became embarrassed and said, “Why do you return, Sir and Madam?”

Leo glanced at her and said coolly, “You really have no idea?”

The shop assistant was speechless. Looking at that off-white dress, Leo said, “I remember that you said it was ‘not for sale’, right?”

The shop assistant was increasingly embarrassed. She was not lying as this skirt was really not for sale. But she couldn’t defy the lover of the Stewart family, Alexis.

Although Alexis’s family was just a branch of the Stewards, she was still a part of them. So the shop assistant had to treat her reverentially.

Thinking of this, the shop assistant said reluctantly with her head down, “I’m so sorry that I lied to you. But I hope you can forgive me that we can’t sell this one to you.”

“What would you do if we don’t want to forgive you?” Leo interrupted her and said tonelessly.

The shop assistant added, teeth clenched, “We have many other new clothes came out this year. I can introduce each of them for you and give you a discount. Sorry again…”

An idea struck Leo as he heard the assistant’s confession, and he said coolly, “Give us a reason why you sold the skirt to that woman rather than us? We came here earlier than her.”

“Isn’t that obvious?” Alexis broke in and sneered, “They certainly worried that you couldn’t afford it. This expensive dress only matches beautiful woman like me.”

Seeing her arrogance, Leo burst into a laugh.

The woman got mad at once, just like a cat whose tail was stamped, saying, “What are you laughing at?”

Leo mocked at her as if he had heard the most funny joke in the world, “It’s important to be self-aware. Clearly, you are not.”

“What do you mean?!” said Alexis more angrily.
