LORD CHESTER COMES BACK

Chapter 97: The Bully, Miss Clifford!



Barbara Knowles narrowed her eyes but didn’t lose her temper due to Jun Chester’s previous performance at Hill Grandsilk. She didn’t dare to. Barbara Knowles had come to the jewelry store today to prepare for her meeting with the Myers family at Ocean Hall tonight. Through various inquiries, she learned that the Myers family had indeed sent quite a few people to Dirtmouth already. The ones providing the information were the Smith family, one of the four major families in Dirtmouth.

In fact, Curtis Smith had once been one of Barbara Knowles’ suitors. Although he was married now, he was still infatuated with Barbara Knowles and always wanted to get her into bed. This time, when Barbara Knowles came to the jewelry store, Curtis Smith also followed, bringing his wife with him. He wanted to show off how much he loved his wife in front of Barbara Knowles. After all, women are prone to jealousy. Curtis Smith wanted to use this to psychologically break down Barbara Knowles’ defenses.

At this time, Curtis Smith noticed the situation with Barbara Knowles and walked over with his wife, Carrie.

Curtis Smith’s companion, Carrie, paid no attention to Barbara Knowles. Instead, her gaze quickly locked onto the pink diamond necklace around Jennie Clifford’s neck, her eyes filled with admiration. She immediately began to pout at Curtis Smith.

“Darling, look at that pink diamond necklace! It’s so beautiful; I want to buy it!”

Jun Chester glanced over. Curtis Smith was dressed in a suit and tie, exuding an air of success. Carrie’s face, barely scoring 80 points in attractiveness, was overshadowed by her thick makeup. Jun Chester looked Carrie up and down, suddenly feeling that this woman seemed familiar.

The next moment, Carrie cried out in surprise.

“Jun Chester!”

Jun Chester was taken aback.

In just a moment, he remembered this woman’s identity.

“Carrie?”

Carrie had been a high school classmate of Lyvia’s. Seven years ago, when Jun Chester returned, he accompanied Lyvia to a class reunion. Carrie had also brought her boyfriend at the time, and throughout the party, she continually compared Jun Chester to her boyfriend to belittle Lyvia. After that gathering, Lyvia sulked for quite some time.

Recognizing Jun Chester, Carrie began to ridicule him.

“Dirtmouth’s most famous sucker, your fiancée became your stepmother!”

“And your stepmother introduced her sister to you!”

“Jun Chester, do you think Lyvia is too lowly to be worthy of you, the wastrel of the Chester family?”

“So… you found someone new?”

Coldness flashed in Jun Chester’s eyes, but he just snorted.

“Carrie, seven years ago, the man beside you wasn’t this one, was it?”This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Carrie’s face changed, and she hurriedly explained to Curtis Smith.

“Honey, don’t listen to his nonsense. Before we got married, I never had any boyfriends!”

Carrie then glared maliciously at Jun Chester and scolded him.

“Jun Chester, you useless piece of trash. The Chester family is ruined, and you still dare to come to a place like this? Can you even afford the jewelry here?”

Jun Chester couldn’t be bothered to argue with such a vile woman.

He turned to the salesperson.

“Miss, please wrap up this pink diamond necklace for me. I’ll continue shopping; I also want to buy a pair of earrings and a wedding ring.”

Carrie glanced at the price of the pink diamond necklace and sneered.

“This necklace costs 7. 68 million, not 768 dollars. What are you trying to pull here, you abandoned waste of the Chester family?”

Carrie looked at the salesperson and added.

“Miss, keep your eyes open. This man was a wanted criminal a while ago. The entire Special Security Agency was after him; who knows what heinous crime he committed. If he’s here to rob the place, your store will be in trouble!”

The salesperson’s face changed, and she looked at Jun Chester in shock.

Jun Chester expressionlessly searched his pockets, intending to pay and then teach the foul-mouthed Carrie a lesson. However, he couldn’t find his bank card. He suddenly remembered that he had given it to Dawson London, who then handed it to Lyvia.

Seeing Jun Chester’s reaction, the salesperson grew nervous. Carrie was a regular customer at their store and Curtis Smith’s wife-a well-to-do lady! How could she joke about such a thing?

Could this man really be a wanted criminal?

Barbara Knowles, who had been watching the situation unfold, felt a surge of satisfaction.

Jun Chester, you useless man!

So what if you saved Riordan Wells’ son?

So what if Riordan Wells gave you a villa?

Perhaps…

You can’t even afford the property fees!

And yet you’re still trying to show off here!

At this point, Carrie was laughing hysterically, pointing at Jun Chester and taunting him.

“I always knew Jun Chester was a loser. Miss, what are you waiting for? Call the Special Security Agency and have them take this loser away!”

Who would have thought, just as she finished speaking, Jun Chester didn’t lash out at Carrie, but Jennie Clifford coldly walked over and slapped her across the face.

*Smack!*

The slap was incredibly loud, sending Carrie sprawling to the ground.

Everyone present wore a bewildered expression on their faces. But before they could snap out of it, Jennie Clifford stepped on Carrie’s face with another foot.

“Do you know how annoying you are?”

Carrie was completely dazed.

Curtis Smith, who was beside her, also had a dumbfounded look on his face.

Barbara Knowles stared blankly at Jennie Clifford, her mind filled with questions. Who was this woman, and why was she so fierce?

The young lady had already come to her senses.

Seeing Jennie Clifford step on Carrie’s face, she immediately thought they were bandits!

Moreover, they were part of a gang!

The young lady tried to steady her nerves, quietly backing away a few steps, preparing to call for help.

At that moment, Curtis Smith suddenly appMyersed Jennie Clifford.

He raised his hand to strike her.

But just as he raised his hand, Jennie Clifford backhanded him without even glancing at Curtis Smith, sending him flying.

She spoke coldly even before Curtis Smith hit the ground.

“This matter has nothing to do with you.”

*Bang!*

Curtis Smith finally crashed heavily onto the ground, his mind in chaos.

What was going on?

Had he just been hit?

And…

His wife had been hit as well.

Wasn’t it normal for him to step in and help?

How was this matter not related to him?

This woman…

Who was she, and why was she so powerful?

Just as everyone was feeling stunned and shocked, a sudden screeching of brakes came from outside the door.

But no one paid any attention.

After all, there were already thugs in the store. What could be more important?

As a group of people from a row of luxury cars outside rushed into the store, everyone was dumbfounded.

Leading the group was a young man.

Dressed in a suit, with slicked-back hair and a nervous expression, he hurriedly walked up to Jennie Clifford.

He bowed deeply, his voice trembling.

“I am Clark White, the general manager of the Dirtmouth branch. We are late, please forgive us, Miss!”

Everyone was shocked.

This woman who had attacked others without a second thought…

Was she the young lady of Clifford Jewelries?

Miss Clifford completely ignored Clark White.

She continued to step on Carrie while turning her head to look at Jun Chester, asking for instructions.

“Mr. Chester, this woman dared to be so disrespectful to you. Should I kill her or bury her alive?”

Everyone present, without exception, shivered in the store’s air conditioning.

Kill her?

Or bury her alive?

Was there no law anymore?

Carrie, who was under Jennie Clifford’s foot, was almost scared out of her wits, completely failing to understand what had happened.

Was it because she had cursed Jun Chester a couple of times?

And she was beaten for that?

Who was this woman who had hit her?

The young lady of Clifford Jewelries?

It didn’t make sense.

Why would such a wealthy heiress be with a loser like Jun Chester?
