Chapter 923
Chloe grinned, “You’ve got good taste.”
Katie bit her lip, her face blushing.
Seeing her shy yet adorable look, Chloe couldn’t help but giggle.
Then, Chloe continued to shop for a bit, finally settling on a platinum bracelet. It was adorned with a black and
white swan on either side, so delicate and appealing.
“Can I see that bracelet?” Chloe asked.
“Sure, just a moment.” The salesclerk unlocked the display case and placed the bracelet on the counter.
Just as Chloe was about to reach for it, another slender hand swooped in and grabbed it. Chloe looked up, initially
assuming she was being overly sensitive. She thought it was Wendy, but it was actually Sierra.
“This is really beautiful.” Sierra’s eyes lit up as she slipped the bracelet onto her wrist.
After admiring it, she nodded contentedly, and excitedly called Wendy over.
“Wendy, do you think this bracelet is pretty?” She asked.
Upon seeing the bracelet on Sierra’s wrist, Wendy raised her eyebrows slightly.
“You like it?” Sierra asked again as Wendy didn’t respond.
Wendy glanced at the salesclerk who smiled back at her. She felt a chill in her heart and then softly replied, “Yes,
it’s pretty.”
Sierra beamed, “I think it’s beautiful too.”
She looked up at the salesclerk, “I’ll take it. No need to wrap it, I’ll wear it out.”
Chloe frowned upon hearing Sierra’s words, calmly saying, “Sierra, I believe I was looking at that bracelet first.”
Sierra looked up at Chloe and her smile instantly vanished, “What do you mean you saw it first? If you saw it first,
why is it on my wrist now?”
Chloe’s brows furrowed and then relaxed, suppressing a laugh, “You’re asking me?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSierra glanced at her and then back at the bracelet, “Well, who else should I ask?”
Chloe rubbed her forehead and smirked internally. She wondered if she was truly out of touch with society,
constantly encountering such absurd situations. Even shopping could result in a face–off..
“I asked the salesclerk to take it out of the case. How can you’snatch it and act so righteous?” Chloe said.
Sierra frowned, “You’re so annoying. Just because you asked to see it doesn’t mean you’re buying it. But I definitely
am! See, I’m buying it, so it should be mine.”
Under the glow of the counter lights, Chloe’s slender and beautiful hand rested on the glass, making her white suit
even more striking. She was like a person radiating light.
Chloe remained expressionless, even the smallest change in her demeanor triggering ripples in the hearts of those
around her.
Sierra felt a pang of inferiority under Chloe’s silent stare.
Meanwhile, Wendy had been eyeing the bracelet on Sierra’s wrist with interest, a slight smirk crept onto her face,
“Sierra, give the bracelet to her.”
Sierra swiftly hid her wrist behind her back, “Why? I clearly decided to buy it first!”
Her loud objection attracted the attention of everyone in the store.
“What’s going on?” Elizabeth asked.
“Nothing, Elizabeth. Sierra and Chloe both like the same bracelet. Sierra has it on her wrist and refuses to take it
off.” Wendy summarized the situation.
Chloe glanced at Wendy, her eyes narrowing slightly into a cold gaze.
“Chloe, do you really like this bracelet?” Elizabeth asked. Chloe took a deep breath, meeting her gaze.
“I like it. But if Sierra wants it that badly, she can have it.” Chloe said.
“What do you mean ‘have it‘? I clearly decided to buy it first.” Sierra said.
“Alright Sierra, Chloe has stepped back.” Elizabeth said.
Chloe withdrew her hand, her face remaining impassive. Although she liked the bracelet, it wasn’t worth the hassle
or the headache. Dealing with such persistent people made her want to lash out.
So much for home training. The apple didn’t fall far from the tree.
With Elizabeth present, she naturally wouldn’t lose her manners.
Especially since this was her store. If someone insisted on buying, as a store owner, how could she refuse their
money?
Of course not! As a businesswoman, making money was always the priority.
Watching Sierra–pay with a satisfied smile, Chloe remained expressionless.
Elizabeth tried to comfort her by patting her arm gently, “I’ll get you a better one later.”
can’t
Chloe gave a slight smile, “It’s okay, I didn’t like it that much. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have let her have it so easily.
What I like, no one can take away.”
Wendy glanced at her, but Chloe’s face retained that calm, composed smile.
“Elizabeth, it’s time for our beauty salon appointment. Chloe, do you want to join us?” Wendy asked.
“Are you done picking?” At that moment, Nathan’s voice came from the entrance.
“Nathan, what are you doing here?” Sierra immediately went over to Nathan, staring at him adoringly.
Nathan glanced at her and said impatiently, “Who are you?”
“I am…” Sierra said.
“Beat it.” Nathan said.
Sierra was taken aback by Nathan’s harsh tone and glare. Nathan walked past her and headed to Elizabeth.
She stomped her foot in frustration.
“Mom, what are you doing here?” Nathan asked.
Wendy raised her eyebrows at the sudden appearance of Nathan, “Oh, looks like someone is here to accompany
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmChloe. Guess she won’t be joining us this time.”
Elizabeth looked at him, her face filled with worry. She hoped he wasn’t falling for Chloe!
“Just checking things out.” Elizabeth replied coldly, turning to Chloe, “Chloe, aren’t you coming with us?”
Chloe flashed an apologetic smile, “Sorry, Mom, we’ve got some stuff to handle.”
“Yeah, Elizabeth, let’s not keep Chloe. She’s got things to do.” Wendy said.
“But…” Elizabeth sounded worried.
She knew, boys and girls couldn’t hang out too often. If they started to have feelings for each other, things could
get messy. Especially when it came to love. Once they were in, it was tough to get out.
She could hardly imagine both her sons falling for the same girl.
“Chloe, are you sure you’re not coming with us?” Elizabeth persisted.
Chloe gave a light nod and smile, “I won’t bother you guys anymore, I’ll spend time with you later.”
In the end, Elizabeth was practically dragged away by Wendy. Before leaving, she shot Nathan a warning glance.
Nathan didn’t bother, he just walked over to Chloe.
Sierra, on the other hand, was so mad she was stomping her foot.
Once everyone was gone, Chloe turned to the sales associate, nonchalantly saying, “Show me your recent sales
records.”
Turned out, Wendy was a regular here.
