Chapter 119
ups! What’s so great about the Best Scholar Award? There’s a Best Scholar every year. Most of them make nothing of themselves. Instead, they tend to fade into the background,” Brittany sounded unbearably snobbish.
She added, “Also, my parents say Bonnie doesn’t respect her elders, picks on her younger sister, and is a pathological liar. It doesn’t matter if she had a perfect score on the SAT, She’ll offend plenty of people when she’s in the real world because that’s just who she is. She’ll fail to make a name for herself and ruin her reputation,”
Avcil was outraged, asking, “Who do you think your parents are? They can’t predict the future. They wouldn’t know how Bonnie’s future will go,”
“You bore me.” Brittany lifted her chin and glanced at Avril disdainfully before turning to Bonnie. ” I’m warning you, bumpkin. Play nice, and give me the dress. You have no choice anyway. There’s something I should’ve said earlier. My family is a business partner with Tang Fusion Studios.
“We have priority in buying anything we like in Bohemian Boutique,” Brittany took a VIP card from her purse and showed it to the store manager, You should recognize what this is. Tell them I have priority here,”
The store manager nodded. “This is a VIP card distributed by the headquarters. You can buy any dress we have. Please give us a minute, Ms. Brittany, I’ll pack this one for you.”
She then approached Bonnie and sald, “Please forgive me, Ms. Bonnie, I’ll have to ask you to pass me that dress. Other designs in our boutique are just as exquisite. I’ll recommend some of them to you later. What do you think?”
Brittany interjected, “Tsk! You fall as a store manager, I didn’t want to say this, but I have to. You don’t have to be so courteous to a country bumpkin like her. You’re the store manager whose main task is to promote business for your boutique. She can’t afford anything here, yet you’re treating her with respect.
“You’re wasting your time and energy with her. If I were your superior, I would’ve fired you.” Brittany was displeased to see the store manager treating Bonnie so–courteously. Instead, Brittany wanted to see Bonnie getting kicked out of the boutique.
“Well…” The store manager looked embarrassed,
Suddenly, she heard an indifferent voice beside her, “She did the right thing. During Bohemian Boutique’s founding, the foremost rule they established was to provide top–notch service to any
customer.
“No staff should look down on anyone who enters the boutique. It’s one of the first things every staff must know during orientation.”
The store manager’s eyes widened as she looked at Bonnie. The store manager thought, ‘How does she know all that?‘

“This is unacceptable! Let’s go, Bonnie!” Avril did not like how things turned out, but there was nothing else they could do. She was okay to stay and shop, but Brittany was harassing Bonnie. Brittany even called Bonnie a bumpkin and said other horrible things to her.
“What’s the hurry? We’ll leave when we buy the dress.” Bonnie patted Avril’s hand and smiled, trying to soothe her.
Avril gawked at her.
Bonnie turned to the store manager and said, “She said her family’s a business partner with Tang Fusion Studios, right? Well, I know a guy, too. Just give me a minute to make a call.”
“You know a guy? Hahaha!” Brittany held her belly and laughed heartily. “Who do you know, Bonnie? Are you telling me that you know the higher–ups? Your reputation precedes you. Indeed, you’re such a pathological liar!”
Bonnie ignored Brittany’s ridicule and called Hamish.
“You only ever call when you need something, Ms. Bonnie. So, what do you need this time?” Hamish had grown accustomed to Bonnie being the titular chairman. However, she did not even care about any of the company’s affairs.
It was so bad that Hamish wondered if it was a good thing for Bonnie to trust him so much with the company. He could steal the company from her for all she knew.
“I’m in the Bohemian Boutique at the pedestrian zone. Here’s the thing…” Bonnie proceeded to tell him the whole story.
“All right. Give me a minute while I call the store manager.”
Brittany looked at Bonnie scornfully. “Did you manage to call your guy? I don’t have time for this. I’ll be generous and give you one more minute. If your guy doesn’t-”
Suddenly, the store manager received a call from the regional manager.
“Mr. Hamish is calling.”
‘Say what?!‘
The store manager’s jaw dropped.
‘I’m merely a store manager among the countless boutiques. At most, I get to talk to the regional
manager. Is this really happening?‘
She was surprised and concerned.
