Chapter 29
“That’s is better, why don’t you tell this stinking old hag to give us back the cloth we choose” Mia said to the manager. The manager turned to the lady and asked “who are you?”.
“That is not right question to ask, you should asking her what is wrong with her?” Mia said.
“My name is Kate Scott, the wife of CEO Robert Scott” she replied.
“You are the wife of the owner of Rob group of companies?” the manager asked.
“Yes” she replied.
“In that case this dress is yours” the manager said and gave the dress to the lady.
“Why would you give her the dress when it was ours?” Dorothy asked.
“It is simple, because she can pay but you can’t” she replied.
“And do you know that we can’t pay for it?” Mia asked.
“This dress cost five thousand Australian dollar, that is not a chicken change. And by the looks of your dressing you probably haven’t seen that amount of money in your entire life” she replied.
Just then the sales rep that was attending to Dorothy and Mia came with their bill.
“Your bill ma” she said handling Dorothy the bill.
“See I know you can’t afford the dress, you haven’t even paid for the ones you bought and you are looking for another one” the manager said and burst out laughing.
“Sarah” the manager called the sales rep.
“Yes ma” she replied.
“Make sure they pay for everything and search them before they leave, they are screaming shoplifters to me” the manager ordered the sales rep.
“Yes ma, I will do that” the sales rep replied.
“Now Mrs Scott, I have some other dresses to show you please come this way” the manager said to the lady and they both walked to another cloth section.
“I am so sorry for that ma’ams, please don’t take it to heart” the sales rep apologized.
“It is fine, I can’t believe you are apologizing for something you didn’t do” Dorothy said.
“It doesn’t matter if I did it or not but I have to apologize” she replied.
“You are well mannered, keep it up” Dorothy commended her.
“Thanks ma, if you still want to buy dresses, there are good ones I will show you that you will like” the sales rep said.
“Are the dresses like the one that old hag took” Mia asked her.
“They are a lot better than it” she replied.
“That’s good because I don’t want something like that” Mia said.
“This way ma’ams” the sales rep said and they followed her behind.
“You suddenly hate the dress just because it was taken from us?” Dorothy asked.
“No when that stupid manager was holding the dress I noticed something” Mia replied.
“What?” Dorothy asked.
“The dress was fake and that was why I didn’t try to take it again, wait you think that if I wanted the dress that I would allow that woman to take it?. Never ! one of us must die today so the other person can take it” Mia explained.
“I had wanted to ask why you didn’t react but I just kept quiet” Dorothy said.
“Please have a seat here ma’ams” the sales rep said to them when they reached the section.
Dorothy and Mia sat down on the chair and the sales rep brought out two beautiful dresses for them.
“These one are more beautiful than that one” Dorothy said.
“Yes they are, let try them first” Mia said and they went into the dressing room. They came out of the dressing room at the same time and the sales rep clapped her hands in admiration.
“You both look great ma’ams” she said.
Dorothy and Mia went to the mirror and confirmed what the sales rep said.
“We really look good in this dresses” Dorothy said.
“Why won’t we be? we have the right body and the right face” Mia said.
They went back to the dressing room and changed back to their cloth. The two dresses was packaged for them and they went to the counter to pay. They gave the guy on the counter their bill and also the clothes they bought so that he can recheck it.
The manager and the other woman came to the counter to also pay.
“It is good that I saw you girls here so that I will confirm that you paid for the clothes you bought” the manager said.
They both ignored her totally, “are you done?” Dorothy asked the counter guy.
“Yes here is the full bill” he replied and gave her the bill.
“Hold this” Dorothy said to Mia.
Mia collected the bill from her and she opened her bag and searched for Calvin’s card.
“Wait is that your bill? I better call security because there is no way you girls can afford to pay this amount of money” the manager said looking at the bill on Mia’s hand.
“You haven’t seen the card?” Mia asked.
“Nope oh ! I found it” Dorothy said and brought out the card.
“Here” she said and gave the counter guy the card.Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.
The guy collected the card and stared at it.
“Please be fast” Dorothy said to him and he inserted it into the transaction machine.
“She is using a black sapphire card?” the manager asked no one in particular.
“What is a black sapphire card?” the lady asked the manager but the manager was still in shock.
“And take an extra hundred dollars, five hundred for you and five hundred for sales rep Sarah” Dorothy said to the guy.
“Thank you so much ma may God bless you” the guy thanked her and finished the transaction. He gave Dorothy back her card with the receipt. They took their things and starts to leave, Mia went closer to the two ladies and said “a black sapphire card is the highest transaction card in the world, it is a shame that a wife of a CEO like you don’t know that”.
