Unveiling the Genius Behind the Divorcee Chapter 165 Chapter 165 Revealing the Gold Card The pain of having oneâs bones bent outward was incomparable to any flesh wound. Laila even fe that if Aylin exerted just a bit more force, her hand might break right then and there!
He immediately cried out in pain.
The commotion caused by the two was quite significant, and Lailaâs scream attracted onlookers. A young shop assistant with a ponytail hurried over and asked, âWhat happened?â
You should know that the people who can afford to spend money here are not ordinary folks. If any accidents were to happen, it might just provoke a powerful and influential family, The shop assistant took several steps and even broke out in a sweat.
Upon seeing someone approaching, Aylin finally loosened her grip slowly, leaving Laila with a twisted face, unable to open her mouth to curse again.
The person who came was not the same girl who had received them earlier. Upon seeing Lailaâs face, she hesitated for a moment and asked, âWhat happened, ladies and gentleman? Did you accidentally bump into something?â
Laila gritted her teeth and swallowed her resentment, covering her wrist with a smile. âItâs no big deal. We just had a little disagreement. I had my eye on a tie, but Ms. Koch liked it too, so weâre negotiating.â
Hypocrisy and pretense.
Ryker disgustedly averted his gaze.
The shop assistant was captivated by the warmth and kindness displayed by Laila, and even felt a faint sense of familiarity with her, so they were very polite.
âSo thatâs the case. Actually, both of you could have asked our shop assistants for help. If we still have this tie in stock, both of you can get the product you desire.
Let me check for you guys.â
Checking the storeroom, she secretly glanced at Laila again.
Upon seeing this, my heart was startled!
The headpiece is a Dior full-diamond crystal hairpin, with a pair costing thousands of dollars. The dress is from this yearâs latest spring and summer magazine collection, and the shoes on her feet are a luxurious high-end edition that even their own store canât keep in stock! From head to toe, every part of her outfit is incredibly valuable.
Upon observing Aylin, she furrowed her brows as she looked on.
Although the gown was exquisitely beautiful and flattering to her figure, the brand was not apparent. The only valuable accessory she had was an emerald hairpin on her head, which looked warm and transparent. However, when compared to the other person, she fell far behind.
The young shop assistant had no idea that Aylinâs gown was a priceless, custom-made piece by the most talented tailor in New York!
The shop assistant searched for a while, then apologized, âIâm sorry, dear customers, this tie is a limited edition haute couture piece from our store. There are only three of them in all of New York, and this is the last one left.â
Upon hearing this, Laila couldnât help but furrow her brow.
It seems she wonât be able to get this tie today.
âOh my!â The shop assistant suddenly exclaimed, looking at Laila. âYou, you must be Ms. Laila Marsh, right? I knew you looked so familiar!â
Laila laughed, âItâs me.â
âIâve seen your performances online, and they are absolutely stunning and beautiful. Iâm a huge fan of yours! I never thought Iâd have the chance to meet Ms. Marsh here today.â
Upon meeting her idol, the shop assistant was extremely excited. She lowered her voice and said, âDonât worry, Ms. Marsh, Iâll make sure you get what you need!â
Laila never expected to encounter a die-hard fan, and she couldnât help but feel delighted.
She glanced at Aylin with a haughty expression and laughed, âWell, thank you then. This young lady simply refuses to communicate with me, and I really need that tie.â
The shop assistant guessed that Aylin probably didnât have as much money as Laila.
Turning around, she directly informed Aylin, âMiss, the limited edition tie is quite expensive. I can recommend other styles for you. Please leave this one for Ms. Marsh.â
Aylin said coldly, âNo way.â
âYou!â
The shop assistantâs eyebrows furrowed immediately, making their impression of Aylin even worse.
She felt that Aylin was arrogant because of her beauty, probably having hooked up with some rich second-generation heir, and she herself was likely just an obscure internet celebrity gold digger.
Doing business with such arrogance, whatâs so great about being good-looking? Itâs just a disguised way of selling yourself!
The shop assistant sneered inwardly, and his tone was no longer respectful. âAs Iâve already said, this tie is very expensive, not something just anyone can afford.â
âYeah, so just let me have it!â
Laila felt extremely relieved, wishing that the salesperson could have said something even more unpleasant.
âMs. Koch, although the model beside you looks quite nice, itâs not worth buying such expensive things, is it? Be careful not to end up with nothing after all your efforts.
Moreover, Iâm afraid you might not understand the rules here. To get a limited-edition the, you need to purchase a lot of other items. I advise you not to bite off more than you can chew, or youâll end up making a fool of yourself.â
Aylin didnât bother to explain further. With a slight smirk on her red lips, she coldly said, âWhat if I can afford it?â
The womanâs laughter made her red lips glisten, exuding an impressive aura.
The stop assistant was a bit puzzled, wondering if this woman could be a hidden wealthy lady.
She immediately denied it!
Itâs not like itâs a novel, where there are so many hidden wealthy women. Itâs more important to please your idol.
The shop assistant sneered and said, âCome on, miss, donât try to save face. You couldnât afford this tie even if you sold everything youâre wearing.â
Laila scoffed, âYou can afford it? Ha, not a chance!â
Doesnât she understand her yet?
Where does a divorced woman get her money from?
Aylin gently stroked her tie, looking at Laila with a faint smile. âHow about we make a bet? I bet I can afford it. What do you say?â
âLetâs bet!â
Laila was provoked to the point of anger, and without hesitation, she declared, âIf you can afford it, Iâll kneel down and apologize to you! But if you canât, youâll have to kneel down to me!â
âSure,â Aylin said with a playful smile.
In the next moment, she opened her purse and took out a dazzling Gold Card from the inner layer, which she then slammed onto the table with a slapping sound.
The shop assistant looked away disdainfully, but was utterly astonished the very next second!
âIs this, is this your card?â
âOr else what?â
The shop assistant was terrified at this point. She looked at Aylin and immediately bowed at a ninety-degree angle, apologizing repeatedly, âIâm so sorry, miss. I truly apologize for my ignorance and for offending you.
You are so kind to overlook my shortcomings... 1, I will immediately help you pack your tie!â
Laila was furious, âDidnât you say it was for me?â
At this moment, the shop assistant was too busy and flustered to pay attention to her, as they were completely overwhelmed.
âOur store has a policy that Gold Card customers must receive priority service and enjoy privileges... Hey, move aside!â
The shop assistant pushed past Laila and shouted to a coworker, âLuc! We have a Gold Card customer here! Get the manager to come down and attend to them!â
