Chapter 277 I Canât Do It
Jade copied Brandonâs pronunciation and exclaimed, âI want to buy Gucci! Gucci!â
The sales attendant, Laura Garcia, said, âHello, Welcome to Gucciâs official flagship store. Which
particular model are you interested in?â
âCanât you get what I mean? I donât need a specific model, just Gucci! Gucci!â
Lauraâs expression momentarily stiffened before she explained patiently, âMadam, every bag we have
here is a Gucci. This is the official Gucci flagship store. Could you let me know which bag style you
have in mind?â
Jade was frustrated. âCanât you grasp my words? Son, talk to her. I canât deal with this!â
Brandon wandered through the store and pointed at a few models with the highest numbers,
saying. âThis one, this one⦠and this one. Weâll take one of cach!â
Laura smiled. âCertainly!â
After fetching the bags and packaging them, Laura turned to Brandon. âThe total comes to 181,713
dollars. Will you be paying by card or digital wallet?â
âNeither. Just send the bill to Ms. Shenton, the owner of TYC. Iâm her cousinââ Brandon explained.
Lauraâs eyes brightened. âAre you referring to Ms. Carolyn Shenton, TYC Fashionâs CEO?â
Brandonâs patience was thinning. âYes, exactly! Havenât you seen my Facebook post?â
Laura felt relieved upon hearing about TYC and nodded. âYes, Iâm aware.â
Thirty minutes later, the Shentons finished their bag shopping and continued exploring the mall,
charging everything to Caroline.
The Shentons then returned home to Bayview, laden with bags of various sizes.
Caroline was still at work in her office with her children when Naomi entered, carrying a stack of bills
which she placed on Carolineâs desk. âMs. Shenton, these invoices are from Lucremall
International.â
Caroline frowned and reviewed the invoices. She quickly understood the situation upon seeing the
luxury store names. No one but the Shentons would do something like that.
âHow much is the total?â Caroline inquired.
âItâs a little over 2,180,000 dollars. Ms. Shenton, their actions have gone too far. Are you sure you

Caroline examined the invoices and replied casually, âNo hurry. I have a plan for dealing with this when
the time is rightâ
Naomi nodded. âUnderstood. Weâve established a connection with the fabric factory recommended
by the VP and are arranging to ship the goods back tomorrow.â
Caroline fell silent momentarily before asking, âStill no news from Kenny?â
Naomi answered, âNo, heâs still unreachable.â
Caroline sighed and put down the invoices, a bitter smile on her face. âTake a seat, Naomi. Letâs
talk.â
Naomi sat down. âOf course, Ms. Shenton.â
Caroline expressed with a hint of sadness, âHave you ever been betrayed by someone
Naomi replied, âNo, I tend to keep to myself.â
Caroline chuckled. âWell, youâre lucky not to have experienced this heartâwrenching feeling.â
Tears welled up in Carolineâs eyes as she continued. âYou saved my life, and I consider you a
friend, Naomi. Honestly, tell me, what would you do in my shoes?â
Naomi remained composed. âIâm sorry, Ms. Shenton I canât answer that question.â
âImagine you were in my position,â Caroline urged.
âI canât put myself there.â
âYouâre straightforward â
âYes.â
â Caroline sighed. âNever mind. I wonât make things hard for you. Iâll arrange for the money. Please
help me settle the bills.â
Naomi stood up. âOf course.â
At Villa Rosa.
Evan summoned Reuben to inquire if he had information about the family seen with Caroline
today.
