Chapter 105
105 Lotuses in action
Jeslyn nced at her stepmother onedy time before she got up and took Valen’s hand to leave.
“Don’t think that you have escaped this day. I will take proper care of you in the future.”
After she left with her guards, Ray who had been watching the whole fiasco among the crowd narrowed
his eyes at Jeslyn’s back. The twodies following her from behind were the samedies he saw on the
CCTV footage, which means, thedy wearing shades, was the same person wearing the cocktail hat.
“You must be rted to Jeslyn to know so much about her,” Ray mumbled as he watched them enter
another store.
Instead of going back to thedy he apanied shopping, Ray didn’t and instead started to trail
Jeslyn.
After the Manager was taken away, the store was closed down.
Madam Chen took her daughter and left the store. She intended to go home due to the overwhelming
sha me that was eating her up. She couldn’t believe a small girl like that would dare to force her to
kneel and ordered her guards to beat her people up. Just when she was lost in thought, Chi Chi’s voice
pulled her back.
“Mummy, I- I wa- want that dr-dress!” Chi Chi huped. Madam Chen was annoyed but still had to get
the dress for her daughter. From one dress to another, until they forgot the time.
Meanwhile, at another store, Jeslyn was in a battle with another ‘enemy’, one of her Celebrity friends.
When she got into the store, Jeslyn met thedy Celebrity and her assistant buying boys’ clothing. She
was just touching them with her fingers and paying for them with her mo uth.
Jeslyn knew this Celebrity, Youan too well. Youan was the type that would decide to buy exactly what
another had set their eyes on just to rub it on the person’s face that her fiance came from the number
five richest family in Rose City.
Jeslyn smirked after thinking of a perfect way to start making this girl pay. She was one of those who
ruined her voice by lying to her.
While the both of them were trailing their manicured fingers through the rows of clothes on the same
line, they both spotted one cloth that looked really beautiful.
It was an oversized round-neck polo on ck shorts. It would look dashing on Valen and Jeslyn didn’t
intend to go home without it.
The Celebrity approached it first and asked for the clothes to be taken off the mannequin. Just when
the salesperson was about to hand the clothes to Youan, Jeslyn came out of nowhere and grabbed the
clothes from the salesperson.
“That!… That is mine,” the celebrity said. She almost raised her voice, but after remembering she was
in public, she swallowed and spoke calmly.
This is who Youan really is. A white lotus.

“Have you paid for it?” Jeslyn asked.

“I was about to,” Youan gestured for her assistant to hand the card to the salesperson, however, before
the assistant could, Jeslyn stuffed her card into the salesperson’s palm.
“I want this, that, that, that, those…” Jeslyn pointed out all the clothes she wanted, including the ones
that the Youan already picked out but hadn’t paid for.
“Ma’am, those clothes have been picked out, please choose from-” The salesperson was interrupted by
the ‘confused and oblivious’ Jeslyn.
“Who picked them out? Why are they still on the mannequin? I didn’t see a ‘sold’ tag on them, so why
are you stopping me from buying them?” Jeslyn frowned slightly.
This was a war of lotuses. She didn’t want to appear like she was at fault, just like how Youan already
started to act silly before the drama even began.
“What is going on here?” A youngdy wearing the same uniform as the salesperson asked while
walking over with her heels clicking against the sparkling tiles.
“Nothing serious, Miss Joan. I can handle it,” the salesperson smiled at the otherdy.
“Oh, Miss Youan is here, I’m your biggest fan!” Joan smiled sheepishly.
“Hi” Youan returned a forced smile at her.
“What can I offer you? You must be thirsty… oh, please, sit down, you must be tired!” Joan was so
enthusiastic that she tantly ignored Jeslyn just for a C-list singer.
“Oh no, I’m fine. I just want to get a few outfits for a friend’s child and an unpleasant situation happened
with thisdy here,” she raised her jaw in Jeslyn’s direction and pouted. She looked so innocent that
you’d think Jeslyn bullied her.
When Joan followed Youan’s gesture, she saw Jeslyn and her eyes darkened. ‘Wasn’t she the
troublemaker at Manager Rita’s store a while ago?’ she thought.
When the chaos was happening at their rival’s store, they were all happy. She was the happiest
because of what Manager Rita did to her.
She used to work under Rita’s store as the Manager, but Rita used her of stealing and then arrested
and fired her without pay.
Because Rita couldn’t trust anyone, she became the CEO, a Manager, and a salesperson all by
herself. She monitors her workers like a CCTV. So when the disaster in the form of thisdy swept her
off her feet, they were very happy and suddenly fell in love with her.
However, Joan started to ha te Jeslyn the moment she offended her bias.
“Ma’am, what can I do for you?” Joan wasn’t courteous but rather spoke as if she was tired of Jeslyn
and wanted her gone for good.
“I already have a salesperson attending to me. My card is with her. All she needs is to take out the
money for the things I bought and I’ll leave.” Jeslyn calmly. She knew Joan’s type of person really well;
The bootlickers.
Joan nced at Jeslyn from head to toe and rolled her eyes. ‘She and her son are wearing unbranded
clothes, meaning they aren’t very rich. Only pretending to be…”
However, Miss Youan would be getting married to the youngest son of the Bo family. So, it was obvious
whose side Joan would take.
“Return her card to her and leave these customers to me,” Joan said to the other salesperson. Then
she turned to Jeslyn and bowed slightly. “Please, visit other stores, we don’t have what you are looking
for.”
“Imprudence!” Blue thundered. “How dare you chase my Boss out!?”
Jeslyn chuckled. “Valen, it seems today is a day for drama. It might hinder us from going to other
ces.”
