An Embarrassing Day
I calmly sipped my tea while observing Liora. I even smiled at her to show I didn’t care. Her expression
grew colder as she red daggers at me. I found it amusing but couldn’t understand how Atticus could
be attracted to such a troublesome woman.
No wonder he told me someone needed to humble her.
Suddenly, I realized Atticus was trying to protect his assets. Perhaps he had realized Liora wouldn’t be
a long–term partner who would share his hardships. Since he had started hiding his interests, he must
be preparing for something.
Soon after, a woman in a ck pantsuit emerged. She looked authoritative, with sharp features and
cold eyes. She nced around and said, “Please calm down, everyone.”
Everyone turned to her as her gazended on Liora momentarily. I noticed Liora’s smirk, and then she
sat
down calmly.
Liora knew she had the upper hand, saying, “Ms. Kate, you arrived just in time. If you can’t resolve this,
me and my friends will cancel our memberships.
“Quick, cancel your memberships! That’ll help us rx!”
“What are you implying?”
Kate smiled and said, “Everyone, please calm down. You’ll all have rooms soon. Let’s not get so
worked
1. up.
Someined about the receptionist, while others criticized Liora and her friends for being rude. I
remained silent but noticed Kate favoring Liora.

Liora continued, “It wouldn’t have been a big deal. You know we’ve been customers here for a long
time,
Ms. Kate. You know our status and ss.”
The others scoffed upon hearing this. However, it didn’t affect Liora’s arrogance. “I’m okay if I’m the
only one with a membership, but I brought all my friends here. This isn’t the only spa in Foswood. We
can leave
if we’re not happy.”
ized Llora was stating her condition.
Lauren gave me the card, she told me it was the most prestigious spa in Foswood, All the wealthy
loved this ce because being a member here represented their status. Hence, I didn’t belleve
would leave this ce
“Mrs. Liora, everyone here is a customer. Can wepromise? I’ll arrange for everyone to start their
treatments soon since it’s better than wasting time. I’ll invite you for a visit another day,” Kate said with
a
smile.
“That won’t work! Do you think I’d still be in the mood to rx after this? It’s either they leave, or we
cancel our membership!” Liora insisted, pointing toward me.
“Yeah! We’ll cancel our memberships! You’re not the only spa in town!” Liora’s friends chimed in.
Kate looked troubled as she approached me. I remainedposed, thinking I would cancel the
membership if I had to. I wondered if I had made a mistake epting the card from Lauren, not
realizing
how expensive it was.
Eleanor nced at me, but I gently signaled her to keep quiet.
Kate approached me smilingly. “Hello, Miss. I’m Kate Farrell, the manager here. I’ve never met you
before.”
“Yeah, it’s my first time here,” I replied. I wanted to see how Kate would handle the situation. Even if I
had to cancel my membership, I wouldn’t do it without protecting my dignity.
“Well, you see…” Kate hesitated and looked somewhat troubled.
“Please, go on,” I spoke kindly with a hint of authority.
Kate deepened her smile at me. “Our establishment has a membership system based on the amount of
spending and the membership duration. Mrs. Liora is one of our long–standing customers, so from our
perspective-
“So you represent your business, right? Either she cancels her membership, or I do?” I remained calm
and
looked at Kate.
“Yes! It’s either I cancel, or you cancel, Liora asserted triumphantly.
I responded, “Fine, I’ll cancel. I’ll give the ce to Mrs. Liora. I hope you enjoy your time here.”
Immediately after, I passed my card to Kate.
