After gulping down her saliva, Wendy stood up and explained to Susanne, “When I saw her yesterday, she was wearing the waitress uniform of Soir Coffee.”
Instantly, Arielle figured it what went wrong.
Despite being a good friend of Arielle's mom, Susanne was hostile toward Arielle because she thought she was a waitress.
Arielle shrugged and explained, “It appears that there is a misunderstanding. I'm not a waitress here.”
Susanne frowned as she asked, “If you're not a waitress, why were you wearing a uniform? Stop making up stories.”
Arielle gazed at Wendy for a while before turning to Susanne. “Ms. Stone, can I have a word with you for a while? I've something to tell you. If you can give me the time, I can lower the price from a billion to ten. Give me ten minutes, and you can then pay me ten to leave your son.”
Miles away, Vinson, who was working overtime, suddenly sneezed. “Ah-choo!”
Who's scolding me?
Over at the cafe, Susanne felt tempted by Arielle's offer after listening to her.
Although Susanne could afford to pay Arielle a billion, she felt that a vixen didn't deserve the amount.
Nonetheless, she also felt uncomfortable to pay Arielle ten as though Vison was worth nothing more than ten.
In the end, Susanne queried seriously, “What do you want to tell me?”
Susanne was intrigued to find out what nonsense Arielle would spew.
Meanwhile, Wendy, who stood beside Susanne, felt nervous unknowingly.
Given that Arielle looked surprisingly composed, Wendy instinctively felt that it probably wasn't a good idea to let Arielle and Susanne talked in private.
