Chapter 528
The female customer looked at David, her eyes practically twinkling with envy and admiration, and said,” Being his girlfriend must be pretty awesome.”
Celina did not know how to respond, so she gently suggested, “We have some equipment inside for your service. Would you like a tour?”
Sunny Glow Beauty Salon’s membership card was not cheap–it ran into the tens of thousands. Thus, she had to make sure every customer was happy.
“No need, I trust you. We can talk here,” the customer replied quickly, though her eyes kept drifting over to David. David did not seem to mind the attention, in fact. The more she looked, the more he showed off his considerate side, even pretending to call his girlfriend regularly. He was downright unbothered, simply
put.
Stuck between these two, Celina was having a tough time. Did they have to do this right when the customer was about to spend big? She was annoyed with David’s antics but could not say anything
Finally, after the customer spent 300000 at Sunny Glow Beauty Salon, she reluctantly left with Celina seeing her off. Once the salon door closed, Celina’s friendly smille vanished, especially when she looked at David, her whole attitude turning icy.
“David, could you please stop already?”
Ever since she accidentally let her guard down and this guy latched onto Sunny Glow Beauty Salon like a stubborn leech, she could not get rid of him.
Explaining David’s presence to customers was nothing new for Celina, but seeing a female customer so obviously smitten with him? That was a first
“What did I do wrong?” David asked innocently, blinking at Celina as if he had no clue. “I wasn’t bothering you while you handled clients, right? I didn’t contradict anything you said. I just sat quietly in the lobby with my coffee. Isn’t that fine?” He sounded so pitiful, almost ready to pout and cry right there.
The young receptionist and her friends, already used to David’s antics, decided to help him out. “Hey, we’re going to grab some milk tea across the street. What flavor do you want? Should we bring one back for you?”
