103 Getting the manager in trouble
“That’s right, a child like this should never be allowed to suffer.”
Jeslyn smiled when she heard everyone from the crowd defending her.
“Why are you insulting thisdy when it’s obviously your husband who couldn’t take his eyes off other
women?” A bystander added. She wasn’t sure what was happening. She thought Madam Chen was
fighting Jeslyn because of her husband.
“Some men cheat because of how their wives treat them.” Another added.
“I support that. If she could cause so much drama in a mall with her na ughty daughter, then I wonder
how much trouble the house would be in.”
“By the way, if I may say, thisdy and her child came here with two guards. From how well they were
protecting thedy and her child, it doesn’t look like how a mistress would be treated. Mistresses are
afraid of being exposed for the fear of the legitimate wife finding out.” Someone who saw when Jeslyn
came in said.
“Not all mistresses are like that.” Jeslyn finally spoke up. She turned to look at the crowd of people
gathered around her and beamed at them.
“There was a story I happened to read. A married woman’s assistant who also happened to be her
best! friend was actually having affairs with the married woman’s husband and even had children for
the
man. Going deeper into the story, the assistant-”
“Stop spewing nonsense!” Madam Chen screamed.
Jeslyn covered her mo uth with her fingers and chuckled. “Why? Madam Chen? Were you the
woman?” Jeslyn widened her eyes and mo uth like she just spewed tea. “It was really you?!”
“Sh ut up, you lying b itch!”
“If you aren’t a b itch yourself, how did you know I’m a bi tch? I heard it takes an experienced witch to
know another witch. In this case, you were a gold-digging Mistress, that was why you knew I was a
mistress at a nce.” Jeslyn fired back.
“Manager, send this wench out of here! Now, or else I’ll pull out my shares.”Madam Chen threatened
the manager who was already angry.
“You don’t have to. Our store doesn’t wee troublesome people like you. I knew you were trouble
the moment I set my eyes on you, so leave now. You are forever cklisted. If you don’t leave on your
own ord, I’ll call security on you.” The manager pulled out her phone, ready to call security at any
moment.
“I heard that this store used to belong to the oldest Miss of the Lee family. So after the disaster that
struck that family, the hidden stepmother who never liked Jeslyn suddenly became a shareholder while
the Manager that Jeslyn picked up from the slum, who knew the in and out of Jeslyn’s family suddenly
became best friends with the Young Miss’ enemy…”
Jeslyn turned to look at everyone gathered around them. “People, if you want to live long, protect
yourself from ‘friends and family’. They will be the ones to shield you and also be the ones to push you
into the storm. Jeslyn’s case is an eye-opener for me!
At those words, the people were stunned. Many of them knew the case regarding Jeslyn but they only
knew the surface. None of them knew that Jeslyn owned the store, likewise everything else that was
revealed.
The people started to give the Manager and Madam Chen funny looks. It angered the Manager so
much that she immediately called security. She was a big woman now. After she betrayed Jeslyn like
she was told to, she became the owner of the store, as she was promised. Her store still sells what
Jeslyn wanted to buy but because she buys some goods from Country M, she mixed them all and
started to sell them at high prices, deceiving the people.
She didn’t know from the onset that thedy in front of her had issues with Madam Chen. She started
to ha te Jeslyn because thedy talked about low-quality goods. What if a customer heard it? She has
so many ha ters in this mall. They wouldn’t think twice before they twist what they heard.
Then if an investigation was made, her fraudulent activity would be exposed. She would most definitely
be going to jail. That was why she wanted to immediately send Jeslyn out of her store, but who would
have known that so much trouble would ur?
“Get thisdy and her people out of here. If she refuses to leave amicably, call the cops on her.” The
manager didn’t mean it though. She only wanted to threaten Jeslyn and make her hurry away from
here, but she didn’t know what she just dipped her hand into.
“Pink, call the cops and tell them that fraudulent activity is going on here. If any security man, guard, or
whatever, takes a step towards me or my son…” she paused and fixed her gaze on the manager. “…kil
l them.”
Hermand reverberated in the quiet space. Some of the people standing around to gossip
immediately started to retract their steps, creating a huge space between them.
“I came to shop for my son in peace. Since you don’t want to live in peace, I don’t mind sending you to
he ll in pieces.” Jeslyn smiled with her eyes narrowed. A totally wicked expression.
“Have
you called the cops?” She asked.
“Yes, Ma’am,” Pink answered.
“Great. While we wait for the cops, Madam Chen, I’d like to hear your story one more time.” Jeslyn
walked toward a couch and sat on it. “Valen, honey, I’m sorry for theinconvenience.”

“No, mother, I’m fine. Just teach them a thorough lesson or else I’ll be angry… so would dad.” 2
Jeslyn’s heart was so overjoyed that it almost danced out of her chest. Valen called her mother!!
‘Stay calm, Jeslyn, he is only ying along with you.’ her mind immediately stopped her from acting stu
pid. 1
She nodded and smiled. “No one can bear your daddy’s anger, I’m not an exception, so I certainly have
to do this right.” She chuckled.
However, when she turned to look at the manager and Madam Chen, her smiling face from a moment
ago changed. “I’m waiting for your exnation. I do not take defamation of character lightly. Who did I
seduce, where did you see me and a married man together? How did you know I am taking care of
