âDid you say that it was that lady, sorry, I mean that customer, who handed you this card?â Michaelâs tone was unexpectedly polite, with a hint of curiosity.
The staff member, taken aback by the sudden shift in Michaelâs demeanor, could only nod blankly.
âAnd what else did she say?â Michael asked.
âShe said that whether the card could be used for payment or not would be determined by you,â the staff member relayed, sensing that Michaelâs mood was not quite right.
Michael took a deep breath and waved his hand decisively.
âOf course, it can! She can take whatever she likes! Not just the piano. worth over three million; the entire store is hers if she wants it!â
Michaelâs words left the staff member stunned.
âMr. Michael... What does this mean?â

The Smith family and the Wilson family were close allies, and he and Alexander were good friends.
However, he had heard that Alexanderâs wife was quite humble and never spent any of Alexanderâs money.
Michael was filled with curiosity, sensing that there might be an interesting story to uncover. He planned to visit the Wilson family later that night.
Back in the store, Olivia remained calm and seated, completely ignoring the scornful looks from Lily and her friends.
âHer face is thicker than a wall, and she has nerves of steel.â
âItâs not easy for ordinary people to come to a store like this. She probably thinks that if she stays here long enough, she might run into a wealthy patron and become a mistress.â
âEven if the nouveau riche lacked taste, they still wouldnât pick her. With her appearance, who would ever consider her?â
The two girls exchanged barbed comments, while Lily checked her watch impatiently.
Just then, the staff member rushed back.

Isabellaâs eyes widened in disbelief, her mouth hanging open.
Olivia, seemingly unsurprised, didnât even glance at the staff member. Instead, she turned to Isabella and said, âGive him your address.â
Isabella, still in shock, blurted out her home address. But as soon as she finished, she was stunned.
âMy house? Livi... What do you mean?â
Olivia replied matterâofâfactly, âThe piano is bought for you. Where else should it be delivered?â
Isabella gasped in astonishment, nearly fainting from the shock.
âBought it for me?â
