Madam Escaped Again, Sir (Lillian Hawkins and Eric Walker) novel Chapter 35

Although Tina was speaking in a gentle tone, she was openly taunting Sonia.

Sonia merely arched her eyebrows before she graciously smiled. “Since you said it first, it’s alright. You can go ahead to purchase it.”

Tina never expected that Sonia would not even compete with her and gave her the watch instead. As a result, Tina did not return to her senses in that instant.

“Tina, it seems like Sonia doesn’t dare to offend you.” Tina’s friend leaned toward her and boasted. “She doesn’t have any support after she divorced Toby. Her company is on the brink of bankruptcy, which is why she won’t dare to take anything from you.”

Indeed. Now, Sonia has nothing apart from a broken company.

After hearing her friend’s words, Tina felt relieved. She took the watch and handed it to the saleswoman with her credit card. “I’ll pay by card. Please wrap it for me.”

However, the saleswoman did not accept Tina’s card and she instead asked tentatively, “Miss, are you one of our VVIP customers?”

“No.” Tina frowned while looking slightly displeased at this moment. “You mean to say that I can’t even pay by card to buy this lousy watch?”

“You can buy any other watches in our store using a card, but not for this series.” The saleswoman looked conflicted. “Only the VVIP customers, who have spent six million in our store for the past two years, can buy it.”

Tina was speechless upon hearing that.

“She’s just a saleswoman who sells watches. I wonder where her arrogance comes from!” Tina’s friend exclaimed in annoyance. “I want to speak to your manager! How ludicrous! We can’t even buy a watch here?”

The saleswoman explained, “The watches in this series have restrictions. It won’t change anything even if our manager is here.”

“Alright, I understand that we are not able to buy it, but what about this woman?”

“Well, Miss Reed is able to buy it,” she replied. “She became our VVIP customer three years ago as she has spent enough money here.”

Once again, upon hearing those words, Tina was at a loss of words again.

When she heard what the saleswoman said, she spent a lot of effort maintaining the gentle and calm composure on her face.

Sonia had enough of the drama and took the watch from Tina’s hand before she passed it to the saleswoman. “Since you are not able to buy it, Miss Gray, I’ll take it instead.”

“Alright.”

In a short moment, she took the receipt and the wrapped watch back with her.

Sonia said her thanks, but she paused next to Tina just as she was about to leave and apologized, “Miss Gray, there are some things that you can’t buy even if I give the opportunity I w

to you.

When Tina heard Sonia’s words, it felt like a slap to her face and she even felt her cheeks burning.

As she glanced at Sonia’s leaving figure, Tina recalled what Tyler had said when he accidentally called her during last night. Her gaze then slowly darkened. Why is she always after what I want?

Sonia was in a great mood after witnessing the drama. When she took the elevator to the basement parking lot, she saw a familiar face.

“President Reed.”

She quickly recognized the tall and slender woman in front of her. “Rebecca Harper?”

Rebecca was Charles’ ex-classmate. She was initially about to work for his company, but when he learned that Sonia did not have any support in Paradigm Co,, he asked Rebecca to help Sonia out.

Even though Sonia had been recently busy, she knew that Rebecca worked at the finance department as an accountant and she was rather careful at the job.

“There are many employees in the company, so I’m quite surprised that you remember me.” Rebecca smiled as she held a cake in her hand. “There’s a dessert store here that serves tasty desserts. I’m on my off day today, so I’m here to buy some desserts. What about you, President Reed? Are you here to buy some clothes?”
