Genevieve paled and stammered, “I–It’s very afraid!”
She thought, ‘Letting Goldie accompany a mastiff? Goldie’s not even enough to be its snack! Please spare
Goldie.‘
Goldie was still sitting there proudly, unaware of the impending danger.
Monica sighed regretfully, patting Goldie. “What a pity.”
Genevieve quickly grabbed her things. “Let’s go, Grandaunt Monica. The driver is waiting downstairs!”
She feared Monica might reconsider if that continued.
Genevieve took Monica to the shopping mall.
Thinking Monica would splurge, Genevieve was prepared to pay.
However, Monica only looked around and didn’t buy anything. “How expensive! 60,000 dollars for a piece of clothing? Are they robbing people? Aren’t those shoes just for seniors? You can find them anywhere!”
Genevieve tried to pay, but Monica refused and scolded her instead.
They wandered around all morning, and Monica wasn’t tired at all.
Finally, Monica quietly asked Genevieve when they were sitting in a store, “Are there no clothes for less than 20 dollars?”
Genevieve smiled. She paused and answered, “Yes, but they generally don’t sell to ordinary people. Wait. I’ll talk to them.”
Genevieve stood up, and the store manager served her respectfully. “We can sell based on the original price, and whatever Mrs. Lawrence gives in the end is fine.”
The store manager, understanding Genevieve’s filial gesture, agreed promptly.
He promptly an
for suitable clothes for Monica to be brought out from the warehouse.

Monica was extremely happy to hear they were on sale for 2 dollars each.
Genevieve watched Monica eagerly try on clothes.
Her phone rang, and it was Selene calling.
Genevieve walked out of the store to answer it..
Selene’s voice came. “A friend of mine at the hospital said that Andrea is quite cunning. She found a suitable match for Lauraine, and all the indicators have been tested in advance. The operation will start as soon as she arrives today.”
Genevieve knew about Andrea returning to the country but hadn’t expected her to be that fast.
It was as if Andrea was very eager.
When Andrea returned from abroad, she eagerly made plans to go shopping with Quincey, not wanting to waste a single moment.
Andrea had witnessed Genevieve’s craziness and apathy and knew that the latter wouldn’t let her off easily.
Therefore, Andrea aimed to remove her quickly and assume the role of the lady of the Hoffman family.
“Mrs. Hoffman, it’s been so long since we last met. I really missed you. I brought some gifts from abroad and sent them to your home. I know you don’t lack anything, but this is my heartfelt gesture. Please don’t refuse.”
Quincey was flattered by her praise, and a sudden sense of superiority emerged.
Andrea had a sweeter tongue than Genevieve, who came from a wealthy family.
They entered a luxury store.
They watched as the store manager personally attended to a country bumpkin–like old lady, trying on clothes identical to those on Quincey.
In an instant, Quincey was livid and strutted over arrogantly. “What’s the matter with this place? Do you do business with anyone? How dare you let this old hag wear the same clothes as me? Who does she think she is?

Why is a stinky street beggar here?” Quincey knew all the socialites and noblewomen within the circle.
However, Monica was completely unfamiliar, and the wrinkles and lines on her face proved that she was not someone who had lived a privileged life.
Quincey was not afraid of offending her at all.
The disgust and anger in her chest were about to be unleashed.
Quincey thought, ‘How dare a stinky old hag wear the same clothes as me? This is simply insulting!”
Stunned for a moment, the store manager then politely stepped forward, explaining, “Mrs. Hoffman, she’s also our distinguished guest.”
“Distinguished guest? Ha! Do you think she can afford it?” Feeling somewhat speechless, Quincey stood there. before saying, “Take off her clothes and throw her out!”
Andrea couldn’t help but speak up from the side. “What are you waiting for? Who does this stinky old hag think she is? Mrs. Hoffman isn’t someone who’s short of money.”
The store manager remained silent.
Overhearing them, Monica turned around and stated angrily, “What’s the use of having money if you lack manners? You don’t want others wearing the same clothes as you? Well, I won’t take off these clothes. I’ll buy all
of them. Pack them for me!”
Monica had never experienced such humiliation before.
Smiling awkwardly, the store manager immediately had someone pack the clothes for Monica.
Quincey’s face turned livid with anger.
Andrea hurriedly took Quincey’s arm. “Mrs. Hoffman, don’t worry. You can go over there and have a seat. Leave
this to me.”
That was a good opportunity to please Quincey, and Andrea naturally wanted to perform well.
Quincey sat down angrily in the nearby lounge.

However, she was keeping an eye there all the time.
Andrea didn’t do anything. She just stood idly by, looking at other clothes.
The tension in the atmosphere seemed to ease gradually.

The shop assistant gave the clothes to Monica, who took out 40 dollars from her bag. The shop assistant accepted it with a smile. “Come again next time!”
Monica nodded in satisfaction, picked up her clothes, and got ready to leave.
There was a wooden–colored corridor at the door, with a spacious exhibition hall underneath the three or four
steps of the corridor.
Monica walked out of the corridor, not noticing someone approaching from behind.
A sudden force came from behind Monica when she was about to walk down the stairs while holding on to the
railing.
“Ah!” The scream was accompanied by the crisp sound of bones breaking.
Genevieve hung up the phone and went back. She saw the scene as soon as she entered the store.
Her expression dropped in an instant.
The entire store was shocked by the scream.
Andrea hadn’t even wiped the smug smile off her face when she noticed Genevieve’s fierce glare. The latter was the last person she wanted to see.
Andrea’s expression shifted abruptly, and she had a bad feeling.
The next moment, Genevieve quickly ran over and found Monica writhing in pain on the ground, gasping in
agony.
Given Monica’s age, her bones were more fragile. Furthermore, the push from behind caused her to lose her footing, collapse to the ground in pain, and render her unable to move.
“Grandaunt Monica…”

Monica’s face turned ashen from the pain.
The store manager quickly came over. “Ms. Lawrence, we’ve called for an ambulance. Please wait a moment,
and don’t move her.”
Genevieve was terribly flustered.
Monica was old, and Genevieve feared there might be some aftereffects.
Genevieve mused, ‘I was careless this time.”
Andrea stood there with a pale face, looking pleadingly at Quincey nearby.
Quincey had initially intended to make some sarcastic remarks, but she changed her mind when Genevieve
appeared.
She thought, ‘It seems like that old hag and Genevieve are together.‘
She immediately sat back down. She nervously pursed her lips, thinking about how to escape that predicament.
