?At the same time, Xander came out of the toilet and witnessed what was happening in front of him. He was surprised to see Scarlett in that ce. But what surprised him the most, she bumped into Ang Lane.
Xander stopped in his tracks and stood behind the wall, quietly listening to what they were talking about.
"What are you doing!?? How can you spill wine on her dress? Do you have any idea how much this dress cost?" Another female voice came from behind Ang Lane.
Scarlett was surprised to see the woman. She knew her. She was Ang''s Manager and had seen it in the news she had read recently.
The woman in a ck dress stepped forward and stood between Ang and Scarlett.
pαndα,noν?1,сoМ "Now tell me, how are you going to settle this?" The manager''s voice was low but sounded very disdainful. "I knew you wouldn''t be able to afford it..." Her eyes looked at Scarlett from head to toe as if she was judging whether she could afford to pay.
"Don''t worry, I''ll rece it with a new one for her..." Scarlett said calmly. Only a dress from a famous brand in Italy will not hurt her wallet. She could still afford it even if they asked for an unreasonable price.
Suddenly Ang''s calm face turned stiff when she heard this woman''s words. For the umpteenth time, she saw the stain on her chest area, and her heart ached to remember this dress was like her treasure, a gift from Xander.
And now, this woman said she''d rece it?
"Miss, it''s not about money but the memories of this dress. You can''t afford it..." Ang said irritably. While the look in her eyes seemed to want to p Scarlett.
Scarlett was stunned. Ang is right, she could buy many dresses like this, but she couldn''t change the memory. Now, she has a headache dealing with this. These two women seemed to want to make things difficult for her.
What do they want if they don''t want her to rece the dress? Apology? She did. She said sorry the first time she realized she had made a mistake. And it wasn''t entirely her fault either. It was both of them.
"Alright, now tell me, what do you want me to do?" Scarlett asked, without wanting to prolong the matter. She would follow her wish and disappear from this ce.
"Yes!! It''s not about money. And how can you afford it even if it''s about money? This dress is a limited edition... There were only 20 pieces of this cloth sold worldwide. And now they''re all sold out. Miss, do you know this brand? And do you know the woman behind me?" The manager continued her sulking in a mocking tone.
The manager''s eyes stared at Scarlett with disdain. ''This woman is attending someone''s party in casual clothes and doesn''t look like a guest at this party!?''
"Oh-My-God!!" The manager covered her mouth as her eyes widened in shock at seeing Scarlett, "...are you even a guest at this prestigious party? Are you a fan who snuck in so you could see the famous celebrity!?"
Scarlett, "..."
"What the hell!! Why should I? Even if a Hollywood movie appears before me, I''ll ignore them..." Scarlett wanted to reply like that, but she held back. She didn''t want to upset them more and just wanted to sort this out and go home.<novelsnext></novelsnext>
"Miss… I…" Scarlett had not finished speaking but, this ignorant manager interrupted her.
"Young Miss, don''t do that. You just embarrassed yourself..." The manager shook her head as a mocking smile appeared on her lips, "...listen, miss, even with your sry for the rest of your life, you won''t be able to afford this dress!"
Scarlett was about tough upon hearing her words. Gosh!
"Now, how can you pay for the clothes? Tell me..." The manager continued her words.
The manager''s words could make Scarlett almostugh out loud. It was the first time she had heard such words directed at her by someone other than that bitch Lauren who was always verbally abusing her.
Geez, why do these people only judge people by their appearance? She doesn''t need to look good or use expensive things to impress others. She wears something because she likes it and feels good andfortable.
Scarlett could only look at the manager with pitying eyes. People like this, who are narrow-minded, always try to use branded goods with nothing in their bank ount — maybe even a minus because they have debts.
This was one of the reasons Scarlett didn''t like interacting with people like this — morons. From the beginning, she said she would be responsible. However, this stupid manager is asking again!?
She was starting to suspect that Ang and her manager just wanted to make her miserable.
''Gosh!! What have I done to them? Why are they attacking me? Do they know I''m Xander''s wife, and they want revenge on me?'' She knew that this woman was often rumored to be dating Xander.
She felt a nameless pain in her heart just thinking about Ang being Xander''s girlfriend. She immediately shook her head to clear her mind.
"I told you before, I will take responsibility. I will rece the dress with a new one, or I can also pay for the dress if you want me to do it." She smiled weakly before continuing. "You can tell me the price and your bank ount. I''ll transfer the money to you."
Scarlett patiently exined as her gaze fell on Ang Lane. It was clear this woman was enjoying watching her manager humiliate her.
It was hard to believe that a woman famous as a goddess because she always looked elegant and kind out there was actually arrogant and heartless, bullying the weak.
She would settle this matter first. After this, she will find a way to teach Ang Lane and her manager a lesson.
''Want to embarrass me? Go ahead but make sure you can afford my revenge!''
Scarlett secretly smiled in her heart as her eyes shifted to the haughty-looking manager in front of her.
