“Sorry, Miss Thomas. I’ve bought this necklace.”
Esme continued browsing and found two more sets that she liked.
“How much are these two sets?”
When the staff presented her the price tags, Esme’s eyes widened after she did the math.” 300,000 dollars?”
“You are correct, miss.”
”
“But her necklace doesn’t even cost 50 thousand! Why are these ones so expensive?!” Esme felt that the staff could be in cahoots with Fia to mess with her!
The staff frowned. “Miss, you are looking to purchase a set of jewelry. This lady here only bought a necklace.”
“But isn’t hers a premium, limited collection? Then it should be the most pricey one!” Esme argued.
The staff shook her head and said, “No, you got it all wrong, miss. Fia, the designer of this necklace, is not famous yet. Although her designs are labelled as premium, their prices are not as expensive as the existing popular designers’ works.”
Seeing Esme staring at her in disbelief, the staff sighed and said, “If you don’t believe me, you can check it on our official webpage for more information.”
Esme immediately took out her phone to check the prices of the Z collection of the Maxwell brand. And the staff was right-Fia’s designs were not the most expensive ones. In fact, it was priced at the medium level.
“Miss, I’ll be putting them away then if you don’t want them,” the staff said coldly.
Esme then stared at the jewelry set with an unreconciled, conflicted face. Seeing this, Sophia said, “Are you short on cash? If you don’t have enough money, you could go home to fetch the money, Miss Thomas. If you find it too much trouble, I could lend you some. I’ll need an IOU from you though.”
Fia sighed at Sophia’s amusingly wounding mockery.
“It’s alright. I have the money.” Esme decided to make the payment so she could save face. She took out a debit card and gave it to the staff. “I’ll take these two sets. The card’s pin is six zeroes.”
The staff then took the card and handled her purchase before packing up the jewelry for her. Esine clenched her teeth, feeling anguish from the splurge when she received her purchased goods.
It was then the store manager ran in.
“Wait!” The manager grabbed the box from the staff and said to Esme, “I’m sorry, miss.
These jewelry are to be transferred to another branch. So I’m afraid we aren’t allowed to sell these to you.”
Fia, Sophia, and Esme were speechless upon hearing that.
The staff was dumbfounded too. She walked out of her counter and asked the manager, “Sir, what’s this all about? I’ve not received news or notice to transfer these.” Besides, it would be much more satisfying to see this shameless woman suffer a huge hit on her purse!
“Process her refund at once,” the manager said to the staff coldly.
The staff responded, “But sir.. I don’t have the authorization to do refunds.”
“The store is going through a major overhaul You go get your colleagues to send our guests away. I’ll handle the refund,” the manager said.
Then, he turned to Fia “Mrs Maxwell, please pardon us for a moment. We’ll see you off after we’ve dealt with the matters at hand ”
Esme scowled “Are you all doing this to me on purpose?!”
The manager gave a professional smile “Of course not, miss. There are also other branches. that needed to transfer their stock too today So we’re doing as we’re told”
The staff approached the other customers to explain and comfort them before seeing them off. Fia pulled Sophia aside to have a seat. She wanted to see what was going on.
