Chapter 937

The manager asked Stella gently, “Miss, you have fair skin, and this color suits you very well. What do you think?”

Stella nodded and asked, “How much is this?”

“Three thousand seven hundred and eighty-eight, and members get to enjoy a five percent discount.”

Stella looked at the tag. “It’s made from polyester fiber. It’s not worth the price at all.”

The sales assistant immediately spoke as if she finally had the chance to mock Stella. ’Just say it’s too expensive, and you can’t afford it. There’s no need to find excuses for yourself.”

Keegan frowned. He was about to speak, but Stella grabbed his wrist.

They understood each other so well that Keegan immediately knew that Stella did not want him to intervene as soon as she did that.

Keegan swept his gaze across the sales assistant with a long face. Then, he pursed his lips without saying anything.

The manager slightly told the sales assistant off and said to Stella with a smile. “The price is the same across all of our stores. You can check out the collection at the door if this is out of your budget. The dresses there over are more affordable.”

The sales assistant did not hold back as she said, “Take it off if you can’t afford it. I still have another customer to serve. Would you stop wasting my time?”

Keegan looked at her. ‘ Who told you that we can’t afford it? Pack everything up right now.”

The manager was shocked. “D-did you say… everything?”

Stella said, ’Yeah. I’m getting every dress that I tried just now.”

The sales assistant’s jaw dropped as the manager said hastily, “Why are you still standing there? Go on and do your job now!”

It took a few moments for the sales assistant to realize what was happening before she hurriedly got the dresses.

Stella stopped her. “Wait a minute.”

The manager reacted very quickly. “Do you need me to get you another sales assistant?”

Stella paused and smirked. ’She’s fine.’

Then, she took a pair of socks from the display stand at the side and asked, “How much is this?”

The manager answered, “Sixty-nine for two pairs.”

The sales assistant scanned the barcodes while Stella bowed her head down to scroll her phone.

There were seven dresses, and they cost about seventeen thousand in total. The sales assistant double-checked the items and asked, “PayPal or bank transfer?”

Stella lifted her head. “Do you think seventeen thousand is expensive?”

The sales assistant was shocked. Then, she said softly, “Yes, it is.”

“I thought so too, so I don’t want them anymore.” Stella handed her the two pairs of socks she was holding. “I’ll take these instead.”

The sales assistant was stunned, and her face twisted.

“Are you messing with me?”

Stella smirked. “You can actually act better than your manager, but you chose the wrong target this time. I don’t mind spending a little more on things I like, but I hate it when someone tries to set me up and thinks I’m a fool. Does my boyfriend look like a stupid person to you? What made you think you could fool him into spending so much money on these dresses?”

The sales assistant and the manager were stunned as they did not see that coming.

Stella knocked on the counter. ‘Would you pack these up now? If you’re not going to do that… can the manager do it instead?”

They paid for the socks before leaving the store, and Keegan still could not process what happened back there.

Stella unboxed the socks. Then, she felt the fabric and said, ‘The quality is not bad.” She handed the pair in a bigger size to Keegan. “The couple design you asked for.”

Keegan was speechless.

‘Couple socks that cost sixty-nine dollars for both. How half-hearted.’
