Chapter 248 VIP Treatment


    In utter confusion, J looked back at the shop attendant and asked calmly, "Is there anything


    else?"


    A polite smile was on the attendant''s face at this time. Her attitude towards J had changed


    drastically. Bowing to the two, she replied respectfully, "Miss, you can take as many photos as you


    want. We also have lots of ssics here. If you want to have a look at them, we will dly show


    them to you."


    J was taken aback by these words.


    Emani, whose blood was boiling, became confused.

    J pursed her lips and took a look at Ethan. The shop attendant''s sudden change of attitude was


    not only surprising, but also confusing. She found it hard to believe. With a frown, she asked, "I


    thought it wasn''t allowed. Why the sudden change of rules?"


    ''Is this shop attendant trying tond me in trouble? Could it be a new way of hooking people to pay


    for the goods here?'' she pondered.


    The shop attendant''s smile widened. She responded politely, "Exceptions are made for every rule.


    Since you are a distinguished guest, we can make an exception for you."


    This exnation heightened J''s confusion. She thought, ''Me? A distinguished guest? When did


    I be one? Weren''t they treating me like a pauper just now?''


    Several doubtful thoughts also filled Emani''s mind. She didn''t believe the attendant''s words one bit.


    In her mind, she concluded, ''This is probably a joke or a misunderstanding. J is just an ordinary


    employee of the Larson Group. She can''t possibly be a distinguished guest!''


    "What do you mean by that? Has there been a misunderstanding or what? How did she be


    your distinguished guest? Are you sure of what you are saying?" Emani blurted out when she


    couldn''t keep calm anymore.


    Completely ignoring Emani, the shop attendant walked to J and reverentially motioned for her


    toe along to the exclusive VIP reception area. "Wee to the VIP reception area, Miss Lind.


    Please have a seat. After we sort out the best ssics for you, you will be served some


    refreshments."


    The other employees immediately went about their duties, paying no heed to Emani no matter what


    she said.


    Some of them put on ck gloves and began to take out the jewelry ssics that had been kept in


    the topmost sections of the ss disy shelves. They carefully disyed them in front of J


    and Ethan.


    These pieces of jewelry were a sight to behold. They ranged from gold, silver, diamond, sapphires,


    and a host of others. They were so beautiful that J was speechless.


    When Ethan nced at J, he saw that she stretched out her hand to touch them, but she drew


    it back the next second. He could see that she was amazed by the jewelry but a bit scared to touch


    them. He found her behavior so lovely and funny.


    "Are you sure you can see them clearly from a distance?" In a bid to put J out of her misery,


    Ethan picked up the box of jewelry she had been staring at and moved it closer to her.


    J leaned close to him and whispered in his ear, "I just secretly checked the prices of these


    pieces of jewelry. They are so expensive. It''s not wise to touch them. What if I identally break


    them?"


    A lot of worries ran through J''s mind. She didn''t trust the employees here. She smelled


    something fishy because of their strange behaviors. As far as she was concerned, this might be a


    trap. She felt that they would force her to buy it if she broke anything.


    Ethan lowered his head and snickered. He then leaned against the sofa and threw his head back,


    laughing. After having a goodugh, he looked at his wife with warmth in his eyes. "Don''t worry. If


    you break anything, I will pay for it."


    J felt butterflies in her stomach when she saw the warmth in Ethan''s eyes just now. It made her


    feel relieved some type of way.


    ''Jeez! He''s so handsome!'' J''s cheeks turned red as she nced at him.


    With her husband''s assurance, she didn''t hesitate anymore. She picked up a piece of jewelry and


    took a close look at it.


    It was at this time that a shop attendant came in with a tray filled with sliced fruits and delicate


    desserts.


    "Miss, have you seen any one you like here? If none of the pieces here catches your fancy, you can


    check out our exclusive pieces. They haven''t been made for sale to the public yet. Since they are


    custom made, they will take some time to be delivered after the order is made," the shop attendant


    exined as she poured tea for J and Ethan.


    For the umpteenth time in thest half an hour, J was shocked. She pinched her thigh to make


    sure she wasn''t dreaming or imagining things. ''What''s going on? I''m dressed in cheap clothes, so I


    look nothing like a wealthy woman. Howe this shop attendant thinks I can afford custom-made


    jewelry?''


    Just when J was lost in thought, she noticed something. The shop assistant kept looking at the


    wedding ring on her finger. It was then she realized why the employees treated her so reverentially.


    She touched her ring and circled it with her finger. "Ahem... You keep staring at my ring. Is anything


    the matter?"
