Chapter 601
Instantly, Linda hung her head and said, "Grandma, I think we have shopped enough. Should we go home now?"
"Oh, I'm not quite done yet, Linda. Don't worry. I know when I should stop. Look, there's a ladies' clothing store there. Let's go. I'll pick out some more clothes for you," Lindsay said, leading Linda happily toward the store where Selena was in.
Instead of pulling her back, Linda quickened her steps and stopped in front of Lindsay, blocking the latter's path. "Don't go there, Grandma! Not there!"
"What is it? What's wrong with you, my child?"
"I really do have enough clothes already. We don't have to buy any more," Linda replied as the corners of her eyes darted toward Selena's direction, and she saw that she hadn't noticed them yet. The servants accompanying them followed closely behind, carrying their bags of shopping.
"What's the matter, Linda?"
Out of desperation, Linda could only say, "Grandma, there's someone I know over there, and I don't want to meet her."
"Someone you know?" Lindsay repeated as her eyes darted in that direction, unsure of who she was speaking about. "Who's that? Is it someone who bullied you in the past? I'll teach her a lesson for you." There's no way that I would allow someone who had bullied Linda to exist!
"She's... my previous superior."
"Your superior? Then that makes her your boss."
"Yes. She's a very mean person who is rotten to the core. Not only did she deduct my salary without a reason, but she even... She would..." Linda trailed off, wiping away the tears from the corners of her eyes. "Just tell me what she wanted you to do! Say it and I'll seek justice for you!" Lindsay said, thumping her own chest furiously.
"Forget it, Grandma. It's all in the past now, and I don't want to bring it up again. Let's just go quickly."
However, Lindsay gripped her hand firmly, saying, "Tell me, Linda. If you don't, I'll feel very uneasy. Do you want my blood pressure to run high?"
"For sure not, Grandma!" Linda exclaimed. "You shouldn't lose your temper! I shouldn't have mentioned this to you."
"Tell me quickly!"NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.
"She... wanted me to have dinner and drinks with customers, and she even wanted me to sleep with them. But I didn't agree to it."
"She did that?!" At this age of hers, Lindsay couldn't accept this type of behavior which was common in the society. "The audacity of her to do that to my granddaughter! No, Linda. Tell me who she is and I'll teach her a lesson for you!"
After telling such a tale, Linda knew
that she could no longer hide it, so decided to let Lindsay and Selena have a complete fallout with each other. That way, they wouldn't have any liking for each other, and that would naturally eradicate any suspicion toward herself
"She's the one in white," Linda said, pointing at Selena. "Let's drop the matter, Grandma. It's all in the past."
"Just stay here and watch from the side," Lindsay instructed and marched forward with the servants.
Within seconds, a sales attendant greeted her. "What are you looking to buy, madam?"
Meanwhile, Selena was speaking with another sales attendant while holding a white jacket in her hands.
Looking in Selena's direction, Lindsay said, "I want that jacket she's holding."
"You mean that piece? I'm sorry, but that's the last piece in the store," the sales attendant said awkwardly.
Smirking, Lindsay gazed at the sales attendant and said, "Since she hasn't paid for it, it means that the deal isn't sealed yet. I'm paying right now. Will that do?"
With an awkward look on her face, the sales attendant peered over at Selena, who happened to have overheard everything Lindsay had just said. Smiling, Selena passed the jacket to Lindsay, and she instructed her servant to take it. "Madam, if you like this jacket, then I'll let you have it."
Crossing her arms across her chest, Lindsay pursed her lips into a smirk. and said, "You must be kidding, miss. How could you say that you'll let me have it? I'm just buying a piece of clothing which you haven't paid for, and anyone has the right to buy this jacket."
