    Chapter 127


    “Can you even afford it?” Natalie chuckled, dripping her voice with mock concern. “I’ve heard times are


    tough over at the Wright family.”


    “You…” Gracia had flushed a deep shade of crimson, her embarrassment palpable,


    Amidst the tense exchange, Natalie casually produced a tinum card from her purse and ced it on


    the counter with a soft clink. She turned to the sales associate with a polite smite, “Would you mind


    wrapping this up for me?”


    Upon seeing the tinum card, the sales associate shifted her demeanor instantly.


    That card was the golden ticket in Global Mall, reserved for the upper echelons of the elite, a rarity that


    even staff members seldom glimpsed. And here was this young woman, a student no less, wielding it


    with ease.


    Looks sure could be deceiving.


    “I want this piece! Wrap it up for me!” Gra blurted out, desperate to save face in front of the


    onlookers.


    “Um… it’s a one–of–a–kind item,” the sales associate murmured, clearly torn. She couldn’t afford to


    offend a VIP cardholder or their family!


    “I don’t care! I saw it first!” Gracia snapped, knitting her brows together in frustration.


    “Yeah, firste, first served.” Lydia chimed in with a frosty edge to her voice. “Besides, are you sure


    she can afford all these clothes? And even if she does, who knows where that dirty money’sing


    from, probably some sleazy sugar daddy!”


    Natalie couldn’t help but let out augh, though her cheeks burned with anger.


    “Excuse me,dies, are you a bit off your rockers?” Rosie finally interjected, unable to contain herself.


    “Who walked in first? If you’re looking for crazy, make a right turn and head down about ten miles to the


    Mental Health Clinic of Streamville. The sooner you get checked, the better!”


    Lydia was twisted with rage. “Are you calling me a psycho?”


    “Sorry about that,” Rosie replied with a shrug.


    The sales associate, sensing the brewing storm, interjected with a peacekeeping offer to Gracia, “I’m


    terribly sorry, why don’t youe back tomorrow? I can arrange to have it brought in from another


    store.”


    But Gracia was icy. “I want this one, and that’s final!”


    “You can have it if you want it,” Natalie said with a sly smile, her eyes fixed on Gracia. “Just ask, and I’ll


    buy it for you as a gift.”


    Could Natalie really be that generous?

    Gracia looked at her with disbelief, blocking their gazes.


    Natalie paused before continuing in a softer tone. “Unless you’d rather crawl out like a dog than kneel


    that’s an option too. Just crawl from my feet to the door, and that’ll be enough.”

    Since Gracia disgraced her, Natalie would show her what was the consequences.


    “How dare you!” Gracia was bulged with shock. Before she could react, Natalie snatched the jewelry


    box from her grasp and held it aloft. With an unblinking stare, she smashed it to the ground.


    “Natalie, have you lost your mind?!” Lydia screamed.


    Rosie, witnessing the scattered brooches and Jewels, was stunned into silence.


    Natalie was even more ruthless than a werewolf.


    In fact. Natalie had seen Gracia unting the jewelry set on social media. Now, wrapped up tightly with


    sunsses, Gracia hade to Global Mall in full disguise, clearly intending to return the jewelry


    without being recognized in her state of disarray.


    The Wright family was strapped for cash. It didn’t take a genius to figure it out.


    “Crawl to the door and beg me, and I might just let you off the hook. I’ll even throw in a piece of


    clothing,” Natalie repeated, the corners of her mouth still curled into a faint smile.


    She had given them plenty of chances, but they hadn’t appreciated her patience, foolishly provoking


    her wrath instead.


    Rosie had tried to warn them kindly.
