Chapter 87

Wendy Quade looked up and was slightly

stunned to see Nicole upstairs gently

swirling a glass of wine in her hand,

looking very relaxed. However, Nicole did

not bother to look at them and continued t

o watch the models in front of her.

Ingrid and Wendy walked to the stairs but

were stopped by the staff in the store.

“Sorry, the second floor is closed to the

public.”

Ingrid was infuriated. “What did you say?

What right do you have to stop us? I’m

your VIP guest, so why can’t I go

upstairs?! Your service attitude is

horrible! Just wait till I file a complaint

against you and make you lose your job!”

The staff smiled and spoke politely, “I’m

sorry, but we have important guests

upstairs that cannot be disturbed. The

first floor is still open for other

customers. If you wish to go to the

second floor, please come again

tomorrow.”

“No, I have an important event to attend in the evening, so it has to be today!”

Ingrid was a snob and full of herself. I’m

the Young Lady of the Ferguson family!

Who dares to neglect me?’

The staff had a difficult look on her face.”

а

Ms. Ferguson, I’m sorry, but it’s really not

possible.”

Wendy pulled Ingrid’s arm from the side.”

Forget it… Perhaps they do have some

important people upstairs… Let’s just stay

on the first floor.”

This was a slap in the face for a snob like Ingrid. ‘Who dares to offend me in the whole of Atlanta?’ Ingrid

sneered. She shoved the staff aside and headed upstairs. “I must go to the second floor! If that guest of

yours doesn’t want to share a space, kick them out!”

The staff could not stop her, so she could only follow in a panic. “No, Ms. Ferguson A triumphant smirk

flashed across Wendy’s face. Nicole noticed the commotion downstairs and thought, ‘These clowns!’ The

store manager also heard the commotion and glanced at Nicole apologetically. She walked over

intending to stop Ingrid, but it was too late. Ingrid

had already reached the top of the stairs. When Ingrid saw Nicole, her face stiffened. She did not expect

that the

important guest was Nicole.

Yvette snorted coldly. “I was just thinking

who that uncivilized person might be…

Turns out it’s Ms. Ferguson. I don’t think

there’s anyone in the entire city that’s as

boorish as her…”

Ingrid was ridiculed and gritted her teeth in anger. “Hmph! So it’s you guys… Did you

buy out the second floor? Why can’t other

people come up?”

“Because we like it. What do you care?” Yvette raised her eyebrows as she retorted. Nicole shook her

wine glass insouciantly. It was a pity that such fine wine and this wonderful atmosphere were so crudely

ruined. Wendy came forward and looked at Nicole with a smile. “Nicole, it’s been a long time since we

met.” “Quit that act. Who wants to see you?” Yvette had the worst impression of Wendy Quade. Wendy

was such a manipulative two-

faced b*tch that liked to act all innocent to gain everyone’s sympathy. She was the

most wicked person Yvette knew.

Nicole looked down and did not pay any

attention to Wendy. The atmosphere was

awkward for a while. The store manager

saw this and immediately understood

that these ladies knew each other but did

not get along.

“Sorry, these two ladies came upstairs

first. Can you two please wait downstairs

for a moment?”

“Why should we wait?” Ingrid was

dissatisfied and needed to vent her anger

on someone.

It’s all Nicole’s fault that Grandpa is mad

at me for not getting his emerald pipe

back! Brother also didn’t help me

because of her!

“Yeah, we all know each other anyway.

Why don’t we join our sessions since the

models are already displaying the

clothes? This service isn’t usually offered to guests, so it’s just as well we can all

enjoy it. Nicole, you wouldn’t mind, right?”

Wendy’s voice was gentle as she spoke.

The store manager paused and was just

thinking of a way to kick them out when

she heard Nicole’s light laughter.

‘Does she think that I’ll be cordial in front

of everyone, that I’d put up with her like

before? Dream on!’ Nicole thought.

Nicole lifted her head nonchalantly to

look straight at Wendy with a cold gaze.

I do mind… Because your breathing

bothers me.”
