The Princess and the Pauper (Arabella)

Chapter 1311

Chapter 1311

"Excuse me, miss,” Guti approached Arabella with a courteous tone, "this dress has already been spoken for.

Perhaps you'd be interested in another style?"

Arabella hadn't been particularly taken with the dress in the first place. She was merely intrigued by a few creative touches in its

design. Seeing the clerk moving to take it away, she handed it over without a moment's hesitation.

“Thank you.” Guti gratefully accepted the dress and delivered it to Serena.

Serena, looking like the cat that got the cream, cast a victorious glance Arabella's way. Noticing Arabella had picked up a

champagne-colored evening gown, a smug smirk played across her lips.

"I'll take that one as well."

Upon hearing Serena's command, Guti approached Arabella again.

This tArabella sensed something strange and looked up, “And who might the other customer be?"

“That lady over there. She's one of our top-tier VIPs!" Guti explained apologetically, "I'm really sorry, but you might want to check

out our other selections."

Arabella's gaze followed to where Serena lounged on a sofa, being pampered by two clerks massaging her shoulders and calves.

When did she start coming to Dawnstar?

She looked quite at ease.

"Does she want every single thing I'm interested in?" Arabella smirked, finding Serena's childish antics laughable.

"My apologies for any offense; Guti said as she swiftly took the champagne gown from Arabella to present it to Serena.

Meanwhile, upstairs, Eunice, who was browsing the racks, overheard the exchange between her beloved niece and the clerk.

Seeing the clerk's actions, she peered down to catch her niece's gaze fixed in a certain direction and quickly surmised what was

happening.

It seemed sspoiled young lady was trying to one-up her beautiful niece.

From her vantage point, Eunice couldn't see who the other woman was, but she knew her niece was being wronged.

As she casually sifted through a rack of dresses, her tone was leisurely yet icy, "My niece is having trouble over a dress, and you're

not intervening?"

The store manager, upon hearing this, rushed downstairs. She didn't know who Serena was, as she had never seen her with Eunice

in the store before.

But the manager knew full well that Eunice was Bard's wife, and Bard's clout in all of Dawnstar meant no one dared to cross him.

One moment Serena was basking in service, the next she was being informed by the clerks that she was now on the store's

blacklist. She was given an ultimatum: leave with her purchases immediately or get a refund.

"What's the meaning of this?" Serena was baffled by their sudden change of attitude. Just moments ago, they treated her like

royalty, and now they were giving her the cold shoulder.

Was it because she had claimed the two dresses Arabella wanted?

Had Arabella orchestrated this?

Did Arabella really have that much pull?

"Sorry, but we can't sell these dresses to you after all!" Guti hastily reclaimed the champagne evening gown and the stylish day

dress from Serena. She had been scolded by the manager and was now bowing her head, fearing for her job.
