Lost and Found: Return of My Mysterious Fiancee by KIKI

Chapter 893: You’re Quite Handsome, Let Me Keep You

Tina stood silently to the side, watching everything unfold, her brows furrowing in displeasure. In a calm voice, she addressed the store staff. "Go inside and bring out the receipt. I'll sign it now. If there's anything else, you can contact me later." The staff member hesitated but nodded reluctantly. After all, what could they do when faced with someone so unreasonable?

Only then did Kaleigh Swanson notice Tina. She let out a disdainful laugh. "Nowadays, even people who eat street food think they can afford custom-made Promise diamond rings?"

Tina's expression darkened. Her gaze turned icy as she replied coolly, "So eating street food means I can't afford a diamond ring?" What kind of logic was that?

The staff member was equally surprised. Besides, how could there even be street food vendors outside Century Square? Such things were rarely allowed near upscale malls. Regardless, Ms. Reed, who had just placed a custom order, was far more reasonable than this arrogant customer who looked down on everyone.

Unable to hold back, the staff member spoke up. "Ms. Reed just ordered an eighty-million-dollar pair of custom rings from our store."

Kaleigh Swanson burst into laughter, as if she had just heard the most ridiculous joke in the world. "Her? Someone who eats street food could possibly afford that? Did you see her pay? Did she swipe her card? No wonder Promise remains a niche brand-they hire staff like you! Real customers like me are pushed away because you waste time on people like her."

She crossed her arms and sneered at both Tina and the employee, her disdain and arrogance unmistakable. "Letting poor people like her into this place just pollutes the air of Century Square."

The staff member, humiliated by her words, could no longer contain their frustration. "What's wrong with eating street food? Some of it is clean and delicious, full of life and warmth. Everyone has their own preferences, and there's no need to look down on others."

Tina cast an approving glance at the staff member. It was rare to see someone in a mall like this who didn't judge others through a lens of prejudice.

But Kaleigh Swanson's eyes blazed with fury. She stormed toward the staff, grabbing a fistful of their hair. Raising her hand, she slapped them hard across the face. "How dare a lowly employee like you disrespect me? I'm the one spending money here. You earn your paycheck from people like me, and you have the nerve to talk back? Believe me, I can have you fired with just one word!"
