When Mrs. Shaw appeared in the office, her chest was visibly heaving, indicating she was quite agitated. It was
clear to anyone that she cared deeply for her daughter, Bethany. The concern she showed was akin to that of
protecting a precious gem.
Seeing that she has someone to back her up, Bethany pouted and looked like she wanted to cry, "Mom, | just
wanted to help her with her business after her recent divorce, and she and her friend actually calleda dog!"
Mrs. Shaw furrowed her brows and glared atwith anger. "Charlotte, don't be so ungrateful! Apologize to my
daughter!"
"Like mother, like daughter."
Jane couldn't stand it anymore. "What do you mean by ungrateful? Who's begging your daughter to take care of
our business? | already said we wouldn't take her order, but she insisted on making a scene!" "Who do you think

Mrs. Shaw disdainfully dismissed Jane's words and turned her threatening gaze back to me, "Charlotte, I've
already let her off once today because you. If she can't control her mouth today, I'll make sure she disappears
from Jelaston."
Jane, who was more responsive to soft tactics, got even angrier. "You have the nerve..."
"Jane!" | suddenly intervened and spoke reluctantly, "Stop it. Go back to the office and wait for me!"

weren't particularly skilled, but they were ruthless, and their words madereluctant to gamble with Jane's

Jane was unwilling. "I'll stay here with you..."
"Go inside and wait for me!"
Bethany was clearly looking for trouble, and with Mrs. Shaw here, both mother and daughter liked to bully
others. If Jane stayed, she wouldn't tolerate a few harsh words and would end up losing her temper. | forced her
into the office, but she still refused to stay. "Charlotte, they'll bully you!"
"They're just taking advantage using words. Nothing will happen to me."
Before our brand gained a good reputation, we have to beg customers. In the future, there might be even more

Returning to my seat, | looked at Bethany, "Miss Shaw, can you now tellyour needs and preferences?"
"You need to apologize to Bethany first!" Mrs. Shaw demanded sternly, belittling me. "She specifically asked you
to design her dress out of kindness and generosity. But you clearly didn't know your place, thinking you're still
Mrs. Frost?"
"Mrs. Shaw," | smiled. "Actually, | don't need Miss Shaw to take care of my business out of kindness. How about
you two leave?"
"You're really pushing it!" Mrs. Shaw abruptly stood up, pulling Bethany's arm, "Bethany, let's go! Someone like

However, Bethany looked a bit surprised. She struggled a little and said hesitantly, "Mom, | just wanted her to do
