How My Ex Became My Next by Kirk Stanley ( Gilda Lynch )
Chapter 29
At the center of the commercial street, there was a fiveâstory independent building covered with .
Today Megan was going to reopen the multiâbrand boutique.
She finally picked up her graduation project again after putting it on hold for three years.
It was in a better place bigger than three years ago.
The interior was uniquely decorated, brightly lit, and filled with carefully selected luxury clothing and jewelry. Its simple glass appearance showed everyone who passes by its unique taste.
Their unique design ingenious match made them famous overnight among the noblewomen in Allath at that time, and many young girls paid attention to them.
Before it officially opened, there were already a bunch of people queuing at the door. They were all
ladies from wealthy families, waiting in line according to the reservation numbers.
Megan also called Gilda out of the company to help the guests to match.
The two of them had been really busy all morning. There fewer people at noon, and Gilda and Megan collapsed aside tiredly.
Megan held Gildaâs arm said, âGilda, it feels like the old days, doesnât it?â
âYeah. It has brought me back to three years ago.â Gilda smiled and stroked Meganâs face. Iâm glad that I still have you, Megan â
âMe too,â replied Megan.
Megan went upstairs to check the situation alone and let Gilda have a rest.
Gilda sat on the sofa and inadvertently caught a glimpse of Sherry and Madeleine..
Sherry wearing an outâofâseason luxury dress. She kept taking selfies in the store with her camera. Then she photoshopped nine photos and posted them along with some words: [Having a great time shopping in this top multiâbrand boutiqueâ¦]
After posting the photos on social media, Sherry grabbed Madeleine to walk around, looking extremely excited.
Sherry picked a luxury new dress worth 360 thousand dollars and looked at Madeleine longingly. âMadeleine, do I look good in this dress?â
Sherry was obviously implying since Madeleine was her future sisterâinâlaw and a rich lady, Madeleine should buy one for her.
Madeleine understood what Sherry meant, but she was really short of money these days. She spent 6 million dollars on buying bracelets last time and now she was having a hard time.
She wasnât capable of acting generously in front of Sherry. So Madeleine could only pretend that she

didnât understand what Sherry meant and went to look at other things.
Sherry felt disappointed and complained in her mind. If it werenât for that I donât have enough pocket money. I wouldnât have begged her.
As soon as Sherry turned around, she saw Gilda sitting alone. She quickly pulled Madeleineâs arm and then they walked toward Gilda.
âWow, look who it is. Since when is a deserted wife also qualified to shop here?â Sherry curled her lips and looked around. Looks like this shop isnât that upscale.
Gilda was a little tired. She didnât want to argue with these two annoying and pretentious women, so she directly said. âYou can get out of here, then
Sherry couldnât stand it. She put her hands on her waist and shouted rudely. âWho gives you the right to drive me ? Iâm a customer here!â
Sherry pointed to the staff beside her and said, âCall your manager here! Iâm gonna complain you deliberately lowered the customerâs level and affected my consumption!â
Gilda folded her arms, fixed the hair on her forehead, and snorted. âI
Sherry was so surprised that she asked in disbelief, âYou? Youâre the manager of store
âThatâs not funny. You canât fool me. Sherry didnât believe it.
Gilda sneered, âYou donât to be fooled
Sherry was just a poser. After being mocked by Gilda, she didnât know what to say at all.
With a gentle smile, Madeleine stepped forward and said, âMs. Lynch, since youâre the manager of this store, you must be good at matching clothes. Could you help me to match a bright set? I will wear it when I get the marriage certificate a few days later.â
Madeleine thought, âShe made me lose 6 million dollars last time. I should feel better after letting her
serve me once
Gilda sat still on the sofa with mocking smile, looking indifferent.
âWhat? As a store manager, donât you even receive your customers?â Madeleifte provoked Gilda.
âI can receive you.â Gilda got up from the sofa, but she just stood there without moving. âBut⦠I donât seem to have either of you on the list of reservations today.â
Madeleine and Sherry flushed at once if their lies had been exposed in public.
They were not included indeed. They bought the reservation at a high price from others just to join in the fun today.
