After the Secret Wedding Rise of My Queen

Chapter 6 Exchanged Number

Isabel quickly explained what had happened over the phone.

Go ahead and keep pretending. We're not in any rush. We'll just sit back and watch you fail, and then we'll get a good laugh out of it.

As Tiffany Perkins and Serena Eaton were thinking this, Isabel ended the call and turned to the shop assistant. "Go get the phone. You should be getting a call any minute now."

The salesperson rolled her eyes, thinking, Just because you f*cking say there will be a call doesn't mean there will. Does my boss even listen to you?

Tiffany looked at Isabel with a smirk and said, "How about a bet? If she doesn't get a call, you slap yourself twice."

Isabel couldn't stand Tiffany's high-and-mighty attitude. "Fine, but if you lose, you slap yourself twice too."

"Alright, it's a deal," Tiffany said confidently, lifting her chin.

Serena tugged at Tiffany's sleeve. "What if she doesn't keep her word if she loses?"

"That's easy," Tiffany replied, raising her voice on purpose so Isabel could hear. "If she doesn't slap herself, I'll do it for her."

As soon as Tiffany finished speaking, the shop assistant's phone rang.

No way, it's ringing right now?

Tiffany thought, watching the salesperson pick up the phone. She figured it was just a call from a friend and probably had nothing to do with what had just happened.

"Hello? How can I assist you, sir?" the salesperson said, glancing over at Isabel.

When Tiffany heard how polite she sounded, her heart skipped a beat.

"Who do you think you are, upsetting the boss's friends? Do you want to quit? If you don't want to work here, just leave! Don't drag me down with you! Do you even know who you've pissed off?" the manager roared on the phone.

The shop assistant was shaken. After hanging up, she turned to Isabel and said respectfully, "You must be Ms. Zimmerman, right?"

"Yes, that's me," Isabel answered calmly.
