"What do you mean? Do you think I can't afford it?" Yulia bellowed.

Melinda sighed with frustration. She had tried hard to coax the people to limit the damage and Yulia had ruined everything by offending a popular designer like Joey.

"You're important to us and we wanted to give you a discount as a token of our appreciation." The situation was getting out of hand and the manager walked out and offered an explanation, but Yulia didn't bother to shut up.

"I just wanted to try the clothes on. Why are you making a fuss about it? You will soon go bankrupt if you don't fulfil the needs of your customers," she said, glaring at the manager.

Yulia was humiliating herself and Melinda knew that it was because she felt that she was looked down upon.

Melinda had tried hard saving her, but Yulia was stupid and was digging her own grave.

"Yulia, behave yourself. Otherwise, Grandpa will ground you and you won't be able to step out of the house." Melinda pulled Yulia's arms and warned. Yulia immediately became quiet.

"I apologize to you on behalf of her. Everyone loves Joey's work and I'm honored to receive this offer, but I feel his work is worth the price. You don't have to give us a discount." Melinda smiled sweetly.

Yulia's words were capable of destroying the reputation of the Gu family. Therefore, Melinda had no choice but to stand up for Yulia. Otherwise, she had no intention of clearing up the mess for her.

Yulia had no interest in shopping and Melinda didn't buy anything either. So, the two of them went home empty-handed. Yulia was still angry. Melinda had yet again managed to win the hearts of people.

"Mrs. Gu, are you all right?" the butler asked concernedly.

Yulia's scandal and behavior in the shopping mall had been exposed on the internet.

The Gu family was yet again the talk of the town. Joey had a crazy fan following and his fans were offended by Yulia's remarks.

"What's wrong?" Melinda asked when she saw the apprehensive look on the butler's face.

The butler explained everything in detail. Panic flashed across Yulia's face as she picked her phone to check the news.

She had finally become popular this time, but not in a good way. People were trashing and abusing her in the comment section, while everyone appreciated Melinda for her dignity and grace. Yulia's anger spiked up in an instant.

"Does he know about this?" Melinda asked. The butler understood that she was referring to Jonas. The news about Yulia could tarnish the reputation of Soaring Group.

The butler nodded.

Although the PR department of Soaring Group handled the matter well, the netizens didn't seem to rest. The comment section continued to flood with hate comments and Yulia didn't dare to step out of the house.

Melinda had left the house twice. The reporters had followed her and posted her pictures on the internet. Melinda seemed to have developed a new fan base. People started seeing her as a role model after she handled the situation in the mall with dignity.

Holley had been following the news and was determined to destroy Melinda. She had managed to find Yulia's number, so she picked up her phone and called her.
