A second chance at love

Chapter 42: Narrow day

-----

"I want this dress!!"

Hearing the voice, one end of Lisa's lip curled upward into a smirk.

'Ah, they always say enemies tend to meet on narrow roads. I suppose today must be a narrow day.'

Lisa turned her head to the side and looked down at the girl.

At the same time, the girl also looks at Lisa, but because she was only 165cm, she had to slightly tilt her head back to look up.

The girls eyes lit up when she sees Lisas face.

"Senior Brushweiler!"

Lisa nod her head, "Junior Ning."

"Miss Ning, how can I help you?" The same worker who greeted Lisa at the door walks up to the two woman.

Today was her luckiest day to be able to assist Ning yeri. She's seen Ning Yeri in almost all the magazines in Imperial.

Being greeted first, Yeri sneer inside. Finally, someone sees her instead of Lisa .

She wanted to slap Lisa's face and tell her that she, Ning yeri was more important than Lisa. But of course she couldn't, just not yet, she still needed to maintain her image.

So, in the softest voice she could make, she lowered her head, "I wanted this dress.." her index finger pointing to the lavender mermaid dress on the mannequin, "b-but....." her eyes moistened and she glanced at Lisa.

The worker looked at Lisa then to yeri. Her eyes sizing up Lisa's then Yeri.

Lisa was tall and very very beautiful, even her outfit was nicely styled, but the worker didn't know what brand they were. Whereas Yeri always wore top designer brands she was familiar with.

Today, Yeri wore a red plaid princess button dress and black stockings with white ankle booties. Over her outfit was a navy blue trench coat.

Every piece of clothing Ning yeri has on is from Essence's fashion line.

Plus, Yeri was a loyal customer at Essence, while this was the worker's first time seeing Lisa.

Guessing that yeri was more wealthier and well known, the worker decided to help Yeri instead.

She glared at Lisalike a royalty finding a servant in disgust, then she made a 180 degree turn of expression to Yeri and smiled.

"Miss Ning, since you saw the dress first, it is likely yours."

Lisa: "..."

Yeri jumped in joy inside. Finally, she beats the slut at something, but she hid her feelings. Continuing with her innocent facade, she glanced hesitantly at Lisa.

"Senior Lisa, I... you also want the dress.. right?"

Lisa looked at her junior indifferently, she thought, 'Ning Yeriah, do you really think I can't see your stupid facade? You've already crossed my bottom line when you drugged my drink. Did you stop to think about what I went through?'

She wanted to punch Yeri's annoying face, but she stopped herself. For now, she'll play along with Yeri's little game.

But of course, was she going to be nice? Nope!

Lisa shruged her shoulders, "If Junior Ning wants the dress then she can have it. I don't NEED it."

She purposely emphasize the word 'need'.

Yeri clenched her fists tightly, her nails digging into her palms.

She wasn't close to Lisa, they've actually only met a few times when Lisa came to China for photoshoots or runways in the past.

They had spoken to each other, but it was more of simple greetings between a senior and a junior at work.

Just from listening to Lisa's words, she could hear the mocking tone in it.

Yeri bit her lower lip, "Senior Lisa, if you also want the dress, I can step down and let you have it. I won't fight for it with you. I mean it. I really do."

Lisa: "...."

Yeri looked like a kind and innocent junior who has respect for her senior.

However, in the worker's eyes, she saw otherwise. In her understanding, Yeri looked like the younger sister who always had to hold out on everything she wants so her older sister can have it first.

She took a step forward, "Miss Ning, as a loyal customer of Essence, the dress is likely yours. You don't need to ask for permission from another customer."

Yeri pursed her lips, "But... I don't want to look like I'm fighting with Senior Lisa over the dress.. others will think...." she didn't finish her sentence and just glanced up at Lisa .

The worker sneered at Lisa, "Ma'am, please be understanding. Miss Ning saw the dress first. So, I suggest-"

Lisa has on her famous maintained poker face. She even thought about placing a call to Bambam to bring some popcorn over so the both of them can sit down and watch Ning yeri's good acting.

If Yeri was an actress instead of a model, Lisa wouldn't be surprise if the little girl won an award.

In the end, she didn't want to continue watching Yeri's stupid facade, so she interrupted the worker.

"Like I said, I don't need the dress. If she wants it, she can have it. Besides, I don't even see anyone fighting with her for it. So, if you'll excuse me, I don't want to waste my time."

Yeri: "...."

Worker: "...."

Lisa didn't wait for their response or look at the two woman, she just brushed pass them and continued with her shopping.

Her personality was, be nice to her and she will be nice to you. But if someone decides to test her bottom line, don't blame her for being ruthless.

After all, the world is a cruel place.
