Chapter 21
Alfred was already aware of what had transpired before entering the store, and he was furious.
How dare anyone show such disrespect to his Young, Master and his daughter’s savior!
If Alex blamed him for Jerry’s Incompetence, all the effort Alfred had put into building a good reputation and trying to earn Alex’s favor would be for nothing
Alfred felt an overwhelming urge to punish Jerry–this useless troublemaker had only caused problems!
He deserved to be dealt with harshly.
With these thoughts in mind, Alfred immediately ordered his bodyguards to escort the middle–aged man and his arrogant mistress out of the store.
“I don’t ever want to see them in this store again!” Alfred warned.
As Jerry watched, the color drained from his face, and his eyes filled with fear,
He looked like a terrified chicken as he cowered in a corner
“Where is that incompetent manager? Come out here this instant!”
Jerry crawled out from where he had been hiding in the corner and fell flat on his knees.
“Sir, I–I’m sorry. I–I really didn’t know.”
“I–I promise, no one told me he was your servant and that you sent him to purchase the necklace.”
“Please forgive me. Next time, I’ll personally deliver whatever you purchase so there won’t be any need for an ignorant servant like him.”
Alfred’s face twisted with anger as he hurled his hand across Jerry’s face, slapping him hard.
“How dare you!”
Alfred almost choked with rage and slapped him again. He couldn’t understand how someone could be this stupid and blind, but he kept his cool enough not to expose Alex’s dentity.
“You Bast*rd,” Alfred muttered.
Jerry recoiled and trembled with fear, clutching his cheek
He managed to steal a glance at Alex, who stood confidently next to Alfred.
Alex looked like an ordinary man, maybe even a servant.
Why would Alfred be so upset over him to the extent of slapping him?
“You’ve been driving away customers with your ignorance should break your bones this instant,” Alfred growled furiously.
“No, I‘
“Shut up!” Alfred’s anger blazed like a dragon’s breath.
He wasn’t just enraged because the manager disrespected his young master, but this foolish man was also responsible for the recent downturn in business.
He was certainly ruining the store with his lack of vision.

Chapter 21
Alfred felt like knocking out Jerry’s teeth to teach him a lesson.
He pointed at Jerry, who was cowering on the floor. “You’re fired.”
He gave his guards a signal.
“Throw this idiot out now.”
“P–please, sir, I’m sorry. I’ll never do it again. I won’t judge customers again. Please forgive me.
“Why are you sorry now? What happened to yourhead earlier? Did you hit it on a stone?”
“Kick him out and dump him on the road.”
“Yes, sir.”
The guards immediately picked Jerry up and threw him out of the store.
“Now, where is that woman who dared to offend Mr. Alex?”
Alfred demanded, his furious gaze locking onto the rude and snobbish young woman.
The middle–aged man briefly considered resisting the guards trying to remove them, but he nearly collapsed with shock when he saw Alfred
He knew Alfred was an incredibly powerful and well–connected figure in the city.
The thought of crossing him left the man drenched in sweat
If Alfred confronted him, his company could be ruined in minutes.
However, his mistress was completely unaware of the situation and continued to protest arrogantly.
“How dare you kick us out because of that lowlife? Do you even know who we are? How dare you offend us? We’re important customers, and he’s nothing!”
“I swear we’ll never buy anything from this store again! I’ll sue you for mistreating customers!” she shrieked. “Just wait and see how your reputation will be ruined! Let’s see who will still shop here in the future!”
The middle–aged man trembled with fear, wishing he could silence the woman.
He regretted ever bringing her to the store. Now, he was certain he was in deep trouble.
He could feel Alfred’s piercing gaze on him.
Before things could escalate further, he quickly grabbed the woman and slapped her across the face.
“Shut up, you cheap b*the! Who do you think you are to speak to Mr. Alfred Kingston like that? You’re out of your mind and blind!”
The young woman collapsed to the ground, her eyes wide with disbelief as she stared at the middle–aged man.
But he didn’t event glance her way.
She began to wail, but the man ignored here
Without a word, he dragged her out of the store before she could say anything else disrespectful.
“Wait,” Alfred called out, not even bothering to glance at Tommy. “If I hear a single word about this store…”

“Sir, she won’t say anything about this store. I’ll make sure she’s as silent as a tomb,” Tommy replied quickly, his voice trembling.
“Tommy!” Beatrix started to protest.
But Tommy, already terrified, hastily slapped Beatrix across the face to silence her, desperate to avoid Alfred’s wrath.
“Good to hear that.”
