The Mocked Miss’s Hidden Crowns novel Chapter 30

“I don’t mind,” Charlotte said.

Elizabeth gave a cold, knowing smile. She was certain Charlotte wouldn’t dare speak up.

Charlotte dropped her gaze, pulled out her phone, and fired off a quick text.

…

Charlotte picked out her own clothes. Simple T-shirts, jeans, a windbreaker. All together, her choices didn’t even come close to the price of one of Olivia’s dresses.

At the register, Elizabeth glanced at Charlotte’s pile and couldn’t hide her look of disdain.

A country girl would always be a country girl. With those clothes, Charlotte would never belong with the glamorous crowd. Someday, if she was lucky, she might snag some tacky rich guy, but that was about it.

“Elizabeth, your total is…” The sales clerk started to ring them up, but before she could finish, a man who looked like the manager rushed over.

“I’m so sorry, Elizabeth. There’s a problem with this dress. I can’t let you take it today.”

“What?” Olivia, who had been hugging the dress to her chest, instantly lost her smug look.

“I apologize, but five minutes ago, a mysterious customer bought this dress.”

“We picked it out. Why should someone else get it?” Elizabeth’s voice was icy, her expression annoyed.

“Yes, you picked it out, but the other customer paid in full before you did.”

“Do you know who we are? We’re super VIPs. We have priority. Who dares to steal my purchase?” Olivia jabbed her finger at the manager, her tone full of attitude. “This dress is mine. I’m taking it home today.”

While all this was going on, Charlotte just took her bags, sat down on a nearby sofa, rested her chin in her hand, and scrolled through her phone, barely paying attention.

The manager looked troubled. “You are a super VIP and do have priority. But the other customer has a Platinum Card.”

Platinum? Olivia’s eyes widened.
