As Lemira caught sight of Evelina making her entrance, an unmistakable flash of irritation crossed her face.

Fate really was a piece of work! It's like the people you least wanted to see have a knack for popping up everywhere.

Evelina, oozing with an angelic vibe, sauntered over, "Lemmy, you've been away from hfor quite a while now. Alaric is just worried about you, which is why he froze your credit card. Don't take it to heart." Lemira maintained a cool demeanor. Having been cut off financially in her past life, she had gone through quite the ordeal.

Now she understood that true independence in finance would bring personal independence! Jessica shot back, "Enough, Evelina. Quit showing off. If Lemira decided to cback, she could reclaim her status as the Langston heiress in a heartbeat. You, on the other hand, will never match up." Evelina was fuming, her teeth gritted, hating nothing more than being reminded of her background.

Lemira ignored Evelina, turning her attention to the salesperson instead, "I'd like to try on these two dresses, please." The salesperson, recognizing Lemira, didn't dare slack off.

Evelina, standing sidelines in annoyance, whipped out her VIP card, "Sorry, but I've taken a liking to those dresses too." Jessica was livid, "Evelina, have you no shame? Ever heard of first come, first served?" Judy chimed in, "Well, Eve's a VIP member, so she gets priority. Let's see if Lemira has a VIP card to flaunt." Given Lemira had left hwith nothing, she obviously didn't have such a card.

The assistant looked at Lemira uncomfortably, "Ms. Langston, what do you say?" Lemira let go, "I don't have a VIP card. Let her have them." Jessica was near tears.

Evelina, on the other hand, felt triumphant, as if she'd finally ousted Lemira from the Langston family, cementing her status as the only heiress.

Lemira kept browsing, but Evelina's sidekick kept turning against her by snatching the clothes. Lemira said nothing, continuing to pick out a variety of clothes and shoes When Evelina realized the pile was growing quite large, Lemira finally stopped, looking at Evelina, "You're not planning to buy all these, are you?" Evelina, chin up, replied smugly, "Yes, tomoe's a influencer's gala tomorrow night. Alaric said he'd take me, so he wantedto pick out snice outfits." Lemira wasn't surprised. Alaric had taken Evelina to the sevent in her past life.

Jessica was still seething, "What's so great about attending an event? In fact, Lemira..."

Lemira cut her off, turning to the salesperson, "Since Ms. Sterling is feeling so generous today, why don't you go ahead and ring her up?" Evelina's face fell, "Wait, I haven't even tried them on yet." "They cin sizes. You can have them exchanged if they don't fit. You're not just trying them on to back out of buying, are you?" Lemira's tone was calm but cornered Evelina effectively.

Jessica added fuel to the fire, "If you can't afford it, don't hoard so much. A VIP member who can even splurge of this little? Please." Evelina, through gritted teeth, said, "Who said I can't afford it? Bag them all." Her sidekick scoffed, "See, Lemira? In the Langston family, Eve is the favored one. Not only these c ever buying out this stor be a problem!" Evelina, frustrated, slapped Judy, "Who asked you to blabber?" She reluctantly handed over her credit card, wincing at the thought of the bill.

The assistant swiped the card, and then uttered, surprised, "Sorry, but this card cannot be read."

Evelina's expression changed, "How's that possible? Are you mistaken? My Ener brother gavethis card; it's impossible it can't be usedë Them owner cover soon and tried again, "Ms. Sterling, it seems there's a limit on the card that's preventing this transaction." Evelina's cheeks burned with humiliation. Usually, to maintain her facade of the obedient sister, she rarely made such extravagant purchases.
