Lyra’s voice was soft and gentle, but the provocation in her words was clear as day.
Sydney simply raised her brows and smiled generously. "Since Ms. Madden spoke up first, sure. You can buy it."
Lyra did not expect Sydney to not argue with her and hand the watch over. For a moment, she did not know how to react.
"Lyra, I think Sydney just doesn't dare to offend you." The other lady leaned forward and bragged to Lyra." She has lost her backing after she divorced President Flint, and her company is on the verge of bankruptcy. That is why she doesn't dare to fight with you over anything.”
Yes, the current Sydney had nothing besides a useless company.
Lyra felt very satisfied to hear her friend say that. She picked up the watch and handed it over with her bank card. "I’ll pay with a card. Wrap it up for me."
Ginny did not take the card and instead asked carefully, "Miss, are you a VVIP member of our brand?"
"No." Lyra frowned, a little unhappy. "Does your shop not accept cards?"
"All our watches can be bought with a card, but not this series,” Ginny said awkwardly. “For this series, you can only use a card if your purchase is over 60 million. On top of that, it's only available for customers who have been our VVIPs for more than two years."
Lyra was speechless.
"You're just a watch shop. Why are you acting so superior?" The lady beside Lyra snapped unpleasantly. "I want to speak to your manager! This is ridiculous. She has money. Why can't she buy the watch?"
Ginny said, "The sales of this series of watches are subject to specific conditions. Even if our manager comes, there is nothing he can do about it."
"If we don't buy it, can this woman buy it?"
"Ms. Raines can buy it," said Ginny. "She became a VVIP customer of our brand two years ago and has accumulated enough purchases."
U H
Upon hearing Ginny, Lyra had to exert an inordinate amount of willpower to maintain her soft expression.
Sydney had watched enough of the show. She plucked the watch from Lyra's hand and handed it to Ginny. " Since Ms. Madden can't buy it, I'll take it." "Certainly." After a short while, Ginny came back with the receipt and a wrapped package.
Sydney thanked her and took the gift before leaving. When passing Lyra, she stopped and said regretfully, " Ms. Madden, there are some things that you can’t buy even if I give them up to you.”
Those words were like a slap on Lyra's face, hot and painful.
As she stared at Sydney’s departing silhouette, she recalled the words that day den said during last night's dinner, and her eyes gradually darkened.
Why does Sydney always try to take what was hers?
In a good mood after that good show, Sydney took the elevator to the underground garage and happened to bump into an acquaintance.
"Ms. Raines."
"Sharon?" Sydney quickly recognized the tall young woman in front of her.
Sharon Campbell used to be schoolmates with Luke and was supposed to join Luke's company. However, Luke knew that Sydney had no one of her own in Skylight, so he asked Sharon to help her.
Sydney was very busy these days, but she knew that Sharon worked as a treasurer in the finance department and was very meticulous in her work.
"There are many people in the company. I didn't expect you to remember me, Ms. Raines." Sharon giggled. There was a small slice of cake in her hand." There's a dessert shop nearby that sells very delicious sweets. I have today off as compensation for working on a holiday earlier, so I came here to buy some dessert. What about you, Ms. Raines? Are you here to shop?"
"It's Luke's birthday today, so I’m buying him a present." Sydney waved the bag at her. "Do you have any plans for the evening?"
"No, I plan to go home, lie on the sofa, and binge a few TV episodes."
"In that case, let's go together. The more the merrier," said Sydney. "You're also friends with Luke, so we’re all familiar with each other."
