“Who said we’re not buying? I can
Lisa was about to grit her teeth and buy a plece of clothing to vent her frustration so that these people
wouldn’t look down on others, but Serenity quickly held her friend back
Then, she said. “If we’re not buying, are we not allowed to browse the store?”
“The two of you coming into a store that far exceeds your income raises suspicions of causing trouble.
I’m simply trying to protect the rights of other customers in this store,” the supervisor replied with a
seemingly reasonable explanation.
However, Serenity wasn’t buying any of that and retorted directly. “But you have no evidence, and
there’s obvious doubt of consumer discrimination in your words. By the way, I’ve recorded what you’ve
said on my phone. I believe it should serve as sufficient evidence which I can submit to the mall
management.
“You…!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe supervisor’s face turned red immediately, never expecting that Serenity would have recorded their
conversation.
“Are you done causing a fuss, Serenity? You’re just a street sweeper, so why are you here looking at
clothes beyond your pay grade? Are you missing the times when you could afford it?” Joy mucked. “If
you really want an outfit from this stare, I supposed I could show you some pity and buy it for you.”
“What’s this? Are you saying that a sanitation worker can’t come in here to Inok at or buy clothes? Or
does the Shaw family think all sanitation workers are inferior? If the public knew that’s how the Shaw
family views sanitation workers, I wonder how they would feel?” Serenity calmly said, elevating Joy’s
personal actions to the level of being a representation of the Shaw family’s views.
Joy’s face turned as red as the supervisor’s, but unfortunately for her, she couldn’t come up with
anything to refute Serenity’s
statement.
If she really said that she believed sanitation workers to be inferior, there would probably be protests
directed at the Shaw family online tomorrow.
“Joy was only making a casual remark. There’s no need to escalate it to this extent,” Jenny, who had
remained silent the entire time, finally spoke up coldly. “Of course there’s nothing wrong with sanitation
workers coming here to buy clothes. But 1 wonder, which item has caught your eye? If you’re not going
to buy it, perhaps it’s best if you stop interfering in the business
of others.”
“This one’s fine,” Serenity said, pointing at a long dress hanging in the shop display which cost seven
hundred and twenty thousand dollars “Miss Shaw, you said you’d buy a piece for me earlier, right? Let’s
go with this one.”
Joy nearly screarned. She had never intended to go through with that! Besides, the dress was seven
hundred and twenty. thousand dollars! Not seven hundred and twenty dollars!
“Oh dear, are you going back on your words, Miss Shaw?” Lisa chimed in from the side, supporting her
friend.
Joy’s face turned increasingly red as time passed.
Jenny sneered, “It’s only seven hundred and twenty thousand. Joy can clearly afford it, but it’s just not
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmworth buying such a dress for a murderer.”
Serenity’s face paled, and Lisa defended her friend, “Who are you calling a murderer?!”
“What, you ran my sister over and don’t dare admit it?” Jenny sakd as she stared directly at Serenity.
Serenity pursed her lips tightly as the scene of the car accident from all those years ago flashed
through her mind once again. She would have died in the explosion if she had been even a second
slower.
“I didn’t do it,” Serenity said as she met Jermy’s gaze evenly.
Jenny laughed coldly. “The judge has already made the ruling. Are you still trying to say that the
accident had nothing to do with you? Weren’t you just talking about evidence earlier? All the evidence
from back then pointed at you.”

Serenity paled further. No matter how she tried to defend herself, all evidence had indeed pointed to
her.
She was innocent, but no one apart from Lisa was willing to believe her.
“Lisa, let’s just go,” Serenity said, pulling her friend along.
Just as she was about to exit the store, they bumped into Zeke, who was making his way inside.
