The two women had indeed picked out the most expensive items to wear, completely disregarding whether they suited their figures or not.

“You bitch!” Hearing Emma’s sarcasm, the woman glanced down and saw the horizontal stripes on her clothes, which actually made her look a bit like a traffic sign. She instantly became furious, rushing forward with the intention of scratching Emma’s face.

However, Emma swiftly raised a silk shirt to shield herself. Her move was half intentional, both for self–defense and to teach these women a

harsh lesson.

As Emma expected, the woman’s sharp nails instantly tore a gaping hole in the high–end silk shirt as she grabbed it.

Witnessing the disaster, the two women screamed in horror. That one piece of clothing cost tens of thousands of dollars. If they had to pay for

it, their salaries for half a year would be gone. The woman charged at Emma in a rage, but Emma quickly picked up another garment, threatening, “You still want to make a move, huh? Take a look at the money in your wallet. How many times can you afford to do this?”

The woman immediately wilted, retracting her hand, and stared furiously at Emma in silence.

Emma let out a cold snort and walked out of the fitting room.

As soon as she stepped out, she saw Liam. He had also heard some noise in the room just now, but he didn’t quite catch what it was. “What happened just now?” he asked.

“Nothing much. I just gave some gossipy women a piece of my mind,” Emma said.

“Miss Wilson, are you satisfied with these gowns?” the store manager inquired.

Emma glanced in the direction of the fitting room and remarked, “The clothing from your brand is commendable, but you should pay attention to your customers who try on clothes without purchasing, carelessly dressing up, not only distorting the cut but also smearing lousy makeup on the collars. You really need to check these things carefully.”

“Sure…” The store manager was caught off guard, not expecting such an incident to happen in front of a big client like Liam. He quickly turned back to check the clothes, only to discover the damaged silk shirt.

“Did you try on these clothes?” the manager asked the two women.

The women got nervous. “Yeah… so what if we did! Aren’t your clothes hung here for people to try on?”
