The room was completely engulfed by silence as both Rose and Theresa had different thoughts that were running through their mind at that particular moment. Rose’s eyes were fully on Theresa as she was desperately trying to figure out if she was serious about what she just told her and checking how willfully she's planning on making it happen. On the other hand, Theresa was thrown into a state of turmoil as Rose’s gaze was focused on her and her expression was completely blank at the same moment. It constantly irked her as she was worried that Rose was probably going to disapprove of her suggestions and would likely think that she's just making a ridiculous request. Theresa really considered keeping her credibility status as much as possible in Rose’s perspective because of how deeply she trusted her judgment. At this moment, her greatest fear was that she had tarnished her spotless reputation all because she couldn't take control of her desperate childhood dreams of being a famous
“I'll gladly accept that condition and thanks for putting so much trust in me." Theresa accepted without hesitation because that condition was meant for her peace of mind. She felt grateful that Rose was looking out for her Instead of being self-centered and selfish about her own personal gains. "That's good, so tell me the exact amount we're going to need if we're to start this new fashion company of ours?" Rose asked. "Well, you'll be glad to know that we still have enough funds to sort out the expenses." Theresa clasped her hand together as she told Rose with a smile on her face. "How is that possible after all the changes you made to the store and the stocks you bought to stock the stall?" Rose asked, surprised to hear that there was money left to start up the business Theresa was talking about. She was expecting the money to have already finished due to all the fancy and exquisite design and changes in the entire stall. Theresa laughed, because she found Rose's puzzled ex
Rose nodded her head at Theresa. “Alright, I will bring the designs the next time I visit because I was not coming from home.” She told her.“It’s okay, I will be waiting for it then.” Theresa said, Rose suddenly got a text message on her cell phone and she was prompted to read it. She raised her gaze back to Theresa. "I have got to take my leave now, Mrs. Theresa, " She announced."Already? I was hoping you'd meet the design team," Theresa said with her tone filled with disappointment. "Honestly, I would love to but I don't have the time now but that can take place another day. I'm really sorry." Rose turned down the offer after apologizing to Theresa."Alright, I'll let you off this time around." Theresa declared and stood up from her seat ready to escort Rose out of the office. Consecutively, when Rose and Theresa arrived back at the store they were taken by surprise when a crowd had gathered as a result of commotion caused by Luthor and an unknown couple.Rose placed her
The lady turned to look at Luthor. "Your jacket..." she repeated. "I believe you haven't paid for it yet. So technically, it is still on sale and I'm buying it.""But I picked it up first and was going to buy it before you grabbed it from my hand.” Luthor remarked, "Please return it back to me because I'm in a hurry.""That's impossible because I have searched for this design everywhere to give it as a birthday present to my fiance but couldn't find it except for this place. And I won't lose it to anyone now that I finally managed to find one." The lady refused vehemently to comply with Luthor's request."Well, that isn't any of my concerns, Miss. I insist you return the jacket back to me." Luthor replied adamantly."Why are you being so difficult? You can just go back to pick another jacket and let me have this one. Besides, I don't understand what someone like you is doing here because there is no way you can afford to buy any of these clothes." The lady snapped loudly in a displeas
“Well, I did see him holding the jacket and I collected it from him. It's not like he had paid for it to lay claim on the jacket as his. Besides, why are you asking me such a question? This man had the audacity to call me shameless and unreasonable. I will show him just how unreasonable I can be, so I will take this jacket.” The lady arrogantly replied. “You're just another spoiled lady with no manners, young lady. I picked that jacket first, so deal with it however you like but hand over the jacket to me.” Luthor remarked. He didn't want to get into an argument with this lady in the first place but seeing how she was comfortable with cheating him irked him off. ‘Just why can't rich kids be sensible like Rose? They have one thing in common, throwing tantrums and requesting things that aren't theirs to take.’ Luthor thought to himself. Anna creases her brow upon hearing the woman's words as well. “Ma'am, just like my junior said and you also admitted that this man took the jacket fi
Anna immediately lowered her face to the ground in embarrassment for failing to perform her work effectively. "I'm sorry for disappointing you both." She made a very sincere apology. Although Theresa was seriously annoyed at Anna because she expected her to have handled this situation more severely seeing how the lady was being extremely unreasonable at the moment. However, Rose on the other hand seems to be less bothered about this incident. "It is not your fault. I know that people like them are quite troubling to deal with." She consoled Anna in a calm manner. "And who are you?" The lady questioned Rose's identity when she saw the young girl walking up to them. But got no response because Rose had intentionally ignored her. Rose was completely focused on checking Luthor, who had a scowl on his face.. "Are you alright?" She asked Luthor simultaneously in a concerned tone. "Yes. I'm fine." Luthor responded with a genuine smile on his face as he was truly relieved that Rose h
Rose sent a quick smile at Theresa, gently nodding at her before shifting her gaze back to the woman. “Well, there you have it. From this moment onward, you are banned from shopping at the store in the future. I would suggest that you comply with this small request of ours because it would be considered as trespassing if you ever attempt to cross the line." Rose gave the woman a stern warning, her voice sounds very dictative. "You….you can't be serious, I don't understand what sort of prank you guys are trying to pull off but there is no way I would believe whatever you say until I speak to whoever is in charge of this place directly." The lady still stubbornly refused to comply with whatever Rose said. “Little girl, I don't know who gave you the idea that you can just come here and throw down some invalid orders here. Do you know who this woman is to me? She is my fiance and I will not let her be ridiculed by a child like you.” The burly man suddenly spoke. He hadn't interfered m
"How dare you?!......" “Did you see that everybody? This is how they treat customers with no regards. What would stop them from acting the same way to you if they openly acted this way toward us." The lady quickly addressed the crowd in a loud voice, ignoring Jane completely. Theresa couldn't help but shake her head in disappointment when she saw what the lady was doing. “So this is how you decide to play with me now." She muttered to herself. It turns out she was right from the moment she saw the lady in her store. The latest development of Theresa's clothing brand had been a great boost for business and Theresa’s clothing design also attracted a lot of customers to shop at the store. The news traveled quickly and in just a few days other business rivals were able to notice the drastic decline in the sales. As a result, Gladys, who was Theresa’s arch rival, couldn't contain her curiosity any longer. She had used all of her connections to make sure that Theresa wouldn't be
