Chapter 384

Effie turned to leave with her grandmother in tow.

But when Hanson heard they were planning to buy from another dealership, he grew agitated and rushed to block their way.

"What do you want from us?" Effie's voice was cold and steady. "You won't let us make a purchase, so we're leaving. If you keep blocking me, I'll call the police."

Lenora, who witnessed the scene, shot a nervous glance at the man standing behind them. "Manager, this is getting out of hand, isn't it?"

The manager replied curtly, “Lenora, stay out of it."
