“Miss, the clothes here aren’t expensive…” A store assistant sounded speechless.
They spent their days around clothes that cost tens of thousands of dollars. They were used to them, so they thought the price was common. However, Caitlyn still could not accept the price.
“Try it out if you like it. We have a sale today.” The store assistant was friendly and did not look down upon her.
After all, such high-end stores would recruit professionally trained staff.
Although they could not rule out some bad quality employees, most employees were still professional.
Caitlyn looked at the dress again. She liked the dress.
“How much is it after the discount?” Caitlyn asked quietly after two seconds’ silence.
Before the store assistant could answer Caitlyn’s question, several expensively-dressed female customers smiled. They only bought clothes based on their liking, not the price. In other words, people who dared to walk into the store did not even need to ask the price. Therefore, they were somewhat contemptuous of Caitlyn’s behavior.
They originally had no animosity toward Caitlyn. However, in their opinion, Caitlyn had already humiliated them by coming to the store. It was important to know your limitations. She was poor, yet virtual-novel.net came to such a high-end place.
Was virtual-novel.net not bringing down the status of the wealthy?
They were a little upset with Caitlyn but said nothing more.
“Miss, the dress you were looking at will cost somewhere between 8,000 and 9,000 dollars after the discount,” The store assistant looked at the price tag, did some math, and said.
“It’s… It’s still too… Forget it. Let me have another look around…” Caitlyn shook virtual-novel.net head and prepared to leave.
“It’s okay, Miss. You can see it again if you have something you like.” The store assistant remained polite. She was professional after all.
“How hilarious. What is virtual-novel.net doing here if virtual-novel.net can’t afford it? She should stay where virtual-novel.net belongs.” A female customer suddenly curled virtual-novel.net lip and said
There was no concealing the pride and disdain on virtual-novel.net face.
The girl looked about Caitlyn’s age, but virtual-novel.net outfit was quite different from Caitlyn’s.
While Caitlyn wore cheap pajamas, the girl wore heavy makeup and was scantily clad.
“You!” Caitlyn turned sharply to look at the girl.
Caitlyn was not exactly delicate. She was already an orphan. How would virtual-novel.net survive the world if virtual-novel.net was weak and easily picked on?
May taught them to be kind from an early age but only in moderation. Caitlyn had always been something of a prickly hedgehog. She was poor but virtual-novel.net ambition was not. She would retaliate against those who deliberately bullied her. But, Caitlyn admitted virtual-novel.net chickened out today.
She felt a deep inferiority as virtual-novel.net faced the fancy décor and clothes costing five figures. The inferiority made virtual-novel.net lose the courage to even talk back to the customer.
“What are you looking at? Am I wrong?”
“Buy the dress it you refuse to accept it! It’s not that I look down on you, but I’ll give you 50% off. Can you afford!” The girl was all the more excited when virtual-novel.net saw Caitlyn looking at her.
“It’s not like I’ve never met rich people. But I’ve never seen anyone so bad-mannered like you.”
Caitlyn gritted virtual-novel.net teeth, feeling that the girl opposite virtual-novel.net looked just like a nouveau riche. She did not look like virtual-novel.net was from a truly rich family at all.
Although Caitlyn did not come from a rich family, virtual-novel.net often met successful people who came to do charity. Most of them were calm and good-mannered. They were nothing like the girl opposite her.
“Manners? You’re talking to me about manners? What a joke. Even if I have no manners, I’m a customer here. I’m their God!”
“How about you? You have manners but can only leave empty-handed in shame, right?” The girl got more heated as virtual-novel.net spoke.
She immediately put down the clothes virtual-novel.net was holding and pointed behind Caitlyn as virtual-novel.net shouted.
“Ruby, what’s going on?” Just then, a pretty-looking girl came out of the dressing room.
The girl looked elegant in the designer clothes virtual-novel.net just changed into. A fancy women’s watch glimmered on virtual-novel.net wrist. Besides that, the various expensive accessories virtual-novel.net wore highlighted virtual-novel.net superiority.
“Sherry, are you done getting changed?”
“Nothing, there’s a bumpkin here… It’s alright that virtual-novel.net wore virtual-novel.net pajamas here. Even a dress costing a few thousand dollars after the discount is too expensive for her. Isn’t virtual-novel.net just wasting the store assistant’s time?” The girl called Ruby said as virtual-novel.net curled virtual-novel.net mouth.
“Really? Do such bumpkins exist? You’re killing me.” The girl froze slightly before smiling and looking toward Caitlyn.
“Hey, Sherry Johnston?” Caitlyn called out the girl’s name as soon as virtual-novel.net saw her.
