Ste frowned and gave the girl an unpleasant look. She pulled her cap down and said nothing. Ste
realized that the girl, who was taking pictures of her, was the same girl standing next to her in the
elevator. ‘Maybe she recognized me when the kid pulled my mask earlier. It doesn’t matter. I have to
leave as soon as possible.’
Ste turned her head in Marshall’s direction, but he was nowhere to be seen. So, she pulled out her
phone and texted him, [I think someone recognized me. I’ll buy the mugs some other time. I’m gonna
go downstairs and try to leave. Don’t wait for me.]
After sending the message, Ste handed the ssware to the cashier and said, “Sorry. I don’t want
these anymore.” She then turned around and left. When the girl saw her leaving, she ran up and
grabbed her. “You’re Ste Jewell, right?”
Ste broke away from the girl’s grip and coldly said, “I think you got the wrong person.”
“No, I don’t. It’s you!” The girl agitatedly said as she held her phone in Ste’s face and tried to yank
her mask off, hitting her chin in the process.
Ste was in pain and subconsciously pushed the other party’s hand away. She identally hit the
girl’s phone, and it dropped. Everyone looked toward the direction of the sound while the girl hurriedly
bent down to pick up her
phone. Ste was about to say something when another girl rushed up and pushed her away. “What do
you think you’re doing? Are you trying to hit her again?”
The push caused Ste to stagger. When she regained her footing, she saw that the girl’s phone was
fine. So, she kept quiet and turned to leave, but the other girl immediately stopped her. “How dare you
try to escape after dropping this poor girl’s phone?”
Ste narrowed her lips and responded in a deep voice, “Her phone hit me on the chin, so I instinctively
pushed it away. It’s called a reflex. And as you can see, her phone is perfectly fine.”
“Shouldn’t you apologize even if you didn’t break it? I was clearly taking pictures of the store. What
makes you think you could hit my hand like that?” The first girl said
aggressively.
‘What the hell? You weren’t taking pictures of the store. You literally held your phone in my face and
asked for my name,’ thought Ste. She would have fought the girls if it was not for the wrong timing.
Ste took a deep breath and suppressed the raging fire in her heart. Then, she said in a muffled voice,
“I’m sorry for the misunderstanding.”
But the other party said, “Who apologizes while wearing a mask? It’s not sincere enough. Take off your
mask and do it again!”
Ste looked at the girls and decided not to entertain them without something in return. “I can do that,
but she has to delete the photos she took of me.”
The girl was taken aback. She did not expect Ste to react the way she did and started to get a little
annoyed. “She said she wasn’t taking pictures of you!”

“Well, I’m afraid she can’t take pictures in this store,” said Ste while pointing at a “No Photography
Allowed” sign. “I’ll apologize again if you tell her to delete all the photos she took in here.”
Ste then called one of the staff, pointed to the two girls, and said, ’Hello. These twodies have taken
photos of the store. Can you please check their phones? I came here to purchase some ssware, not
appear in other people’s galleries.”
The staff hastily apologized and asked the two girls to show the recent pictures in their albums just to
make sure. The girl who dropped her phone was flustered when she heard that. However, the other girl
was calm. “You’re not thew. You have no right to search our phones.”
“So you know thew, huh?” Steughed. She held her phone up to show them that she was calling
911. “Since I’m also aw-abiding citizen, I think it would be best to settle this with the authorities. That
way, we can amicably get things over with.”
The two girls panicked when they saw what was on the screen of Ste’s phone.
