Chapter 76: Shopping Mall 4

The male wing of the shopping mall is located at the Northeast of the mall which is two or three shops apart.

The group made their way slowly to the mall. Jessica was hoping to use this opportunity to add some casual clothes of different colours to the set of clothes in Davis wardrobe.

As they drew closer to their location, Davis’s breathing hitched, his grip on Jessica’s hand tightening involuntarily.

Just as he was struggling to steady himself, a store manager approached, he glanced at them one after another and finally his condescending smirk settled on Davis who was sitting on the wheelchair.

"Sir, you cannot go into the store in a wheelchair," the manager stated, his voice dripping with arrogance. "You can wait for your colleagues at the lounge." He concluded, his smile widening.

A heavy silence followed his words. Jessica’s face darkened instantly, her eyes cold. Pamela folded her arms across her chest, glared at the store manager as if he were the filth beneath her shoes.

Ethan was seething with rage, his jaw and fist clenched. He would have hit this man on the face but that will attract more onlookers than the people already gathered and Davis couldn’t cope with their gaze —not yet.

He made a mental note to seek out the manager and teach him a reason to always respect everyone he comes across irrespective of age or size.

Davis remained still, his expression complicated. Though he appeared calm but a storm was raging in his heart. He was preparing himself for stares, glares and whispers, but outright rejection? No, he never planned for it and seeing it happen —It stung.

Jessica let out a cold chuckle, breaking the silence. "Excuse me?" She said, her voice cold.

The manager shifted slightly but kept his smug demeanor. "It’s the store policy. We have limited space inside, and a wheelchair would be... obstructive."
