sir, please
the sales representative attempted to intervene.
“You must remove this poor fool immediately! He’s ruining our shopping experience, and I won’t tolerate it,” the man insisted.
Beatrix crossed her arms, watching the situation unfold with a smug expression, her head held high, exuding arrogance and confidence,
The sales representative was caught in a difficult position.
She didn’t want to choose sides. What could she do? If she followed the man’s orders, she’d be driving away a
customer.
Yet, she didn’t want to upset the old man either.
She spoke into the intercom, saying, “Mr. Jerry, we have a bit of a situation here. Could you come quickly, please?”
Within a minute, a man with a stern expression appeared.
Jerry White, the store’s sales manager, had arrived.
“Mr. Tommy!” Jerry exclaimed, immediately recognizing the middle–aged man, a regular customer.
He bowed respectfully. “It’s an honor, sir. How may I assist you?”
The man pointed accusingly at the sales representative, and Jerry quickly turned his attention to her.
“Why is our esteemed guest standing around? Don’t you realize who Mr. Tommy is?”
The sales representative explained what had occurred, and Jerry turned to Alex with a look of contempt, as if Alex were beneath him.
How dare this nobody disrupt the shopping experience of such a valued guest? Who did he think he was?
Jerry scolded the sales representative, “How could you just stand there and let this man offend Mr. Tommy? Do you want to lose your job?”
“I’m sorry, Mr. Tommy. Please continue shopping. I’ll take care of this man,” Jerry assured, reprimanding the sales representative.
Mr. Tommy, the middle–aged man, was instantly satisfied with the manager’s swift action. Now, he could shop without the poor fool’s irritating presence.
Jerry ruotioned to two security guards and pointed at Alex. Remove this man from the store and make sure he doesn’t return.”
“Is this how you treat a customer? With such unprofessional behavior, I’m surprised you still have a job here.” Alex’s voice was icy as he questioned Jerry’s competence.
Was this one of Alfred’s subordinates?
Alex began to doubt Alfred’s ability to choose and appoint capable individuals.
“Haha. You? A customer? Just look at your shabby clothes–you’re nothing but a lowlife fraud. You can’t even afford a hundred–dollar necklace, let alone one worth over a million! You should’ve taken a good look in the mirror before walking into this shop and pretending to be acustomer,” Jerry sneered, laughing at Alex.

“And as for my professional abilities, do you have any idea how long I’ve been a manager? Fifteen years! No one in this store has better judgment than I do,” Jerry continued, His voice brimming with pride.
After years of experience, Jerry belleved he could easily size up people.
From his observation, Alex seemed like nothing more than poor, deceitful loser trying to disrupt business.
Maybe he just wanted to snap a picture for social media to show off.
Meanwhile, Alex received a text message. After a quick glance at it, his patience finally wore thin.
It was time to teach the arrogant manager and the pompous old man a lesson they wouldn’t forget.
He called Alfred, who was still waiting outside.
“Come into the store right now.”
“Right away, Young Master. I’m on my way,” Alfred responded
Look at this clown! Do you think you’ll scare me with one phone call? Let him come–I’ll throw him out too!” Jerry sneered, convinced that Alex was bluffing.
Alex nodded with a smirk
“Your arrogance is unbelievable! You have less than five seconds to take back your words, or you’ll pay dearly for
Jerry sneered again.
Would he back down just because of Alex’s threat? Absolutely not!
Was there any chance that whoever Alex called could make im suffer? Not in a million years!
Did Alex really think he was some big shot who could bring him down?
“Haha!” Jerry couldn’t help but laugh at Alex’s foolishness
With these thoughts in mind, Jerry eagerly glanced toward the door, curious to see who or what would show up
next.
Just then, a tall and imposing figure entered the store, flanked by two bodyguards.
It was clear that the newcomer was no ordinary person,
Just from his attire, it was evident that he belonged to the highest echelons of society.
To everyone’s shock, it was Alfred Kingston–the chairman of Kingston Enterprises!
One of the most powerful figures in the entire Vancouver district, a man whose decisions could influence the lives of over half the population.
Almost everyone in the area knew who he was.
But why had he suddenly appeared here? For what reason?
Everyone, except Alex, was too stunned to speak.
Even Jerry was taken aback by Alfred’s unexpected arrival.
Jerry briefly wondered if Alfred could be the person Alex had called, but he quickly dismissed the idea.
Chapter 20
There was no way this poor fool could possibly know someone like Alfred.
It was impossible! :
“Sir–Mr. Sir, I wasn’t expecting you,” Jerry stammered, but Alfred completely ignored him.
