Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

When Winnie saw Alger protecting her behind him and faced that woman alone, she felt Alger’s body was currently extremely tall and the aggrievance in her mind also dissipated a lot in an instant. It seemed like Winnie would never be in danger as long as she was behind Alger.

“You! You’re so rude! You have no manners!” The woman was so enraged that her body started shaking.

Winnie collected herself, then went forward and pulled Alger’s clothes as she whispered, “Alger, how can you comment on a woman’s appearance? That’s very rude.”

Alger turned around and looked at Winnie, changing his attitude completely. “Winnie, you’re too kind. I can’t be as kind as you after seeing that old woman treat you like that!”

“How dare you say I’m old?!”

The woman’s eyes burst with anger. “Do you know how much I usually spend on this face to take care of it?”

“Haha, no matter how you take care of yourself, you won’t be able to cover your age,” Alger looked at the woman and said coldly!

“Is this how you treat your customers?!”

The woman saw that she couldn’t win the argument with Alger, so she directly put the blame on the saleswoman in the shop. “Why aren’t you kicking a person of such standard out?”

Alger turned around and looked at this saleswoman coldly. His momentum was extremely strong, making the saleswoman a bit guilty in her mind.

“Why are you still standing there? Ask the security guard to come quickly!” The woman also reproached the man next to her.

Even though Alger was fierce right now, his identity and status were obviously inferior to this woman. Thinking of this, the saleswoman nodded and said, “Someone so rude and of such standard indeed isn’t qualified to be in our shop. His presence is humiliating our other customers!”

After saying that, she ignored Alger’s sullen expression and directly took out her walkie talkie to call the security guard.

Seeing this, Winnie looked at Alger and said worriedly, “Alger, we should go back. Don’t make trouble here. If the security guards come later, I really don’t know what will happen.”

After that, she walked to the woman and the saleswoman and apologized quickly, “I’m really sorry. Alger has always had a temper. We’ll leave now, and I don’t want the earrings either.”

“Hm, things worn by someone like you are too dirty for me!” The woman put her hands on her hips, not looking elegant at all.

Alger frowned slightly. He took out the phone and sent Lisana a message. He wanted to see the Manager of this shop immediately!

After that, he strode forward and pulled Winnie back behind him. He looked at Winnie and said, “Winnie, don’t apologize to them. These people aren’t even comparable to a single strand of your hair. I’ll definitely make them pay!”

“Make us pay?!”

The woman seemed to have heard a joke. “Has your brain been smashed by the door? The security guards will be here in a minute. I think you are the one who’s going to pay!

“You don’t have money, and yet you still want to shop at such a luxurious store. I really don’t know what you’re thinking. Are you so eager to experience the life of the rich?

“Just for your dignity, you are making such a scene. Bah!”

Alger’s eyes were full of coldness. Seeing this, the woman took a step back and stuttered, “W-Why are you looking at me like that? Am I wrong?

“Which of the jewelry in this shop can you afford?”

Alger wanted to go forward, but Winnie stopped him, “Alger, don’t make anymore trouble. Let’s go back.”

Looking at Winnie’s panicked face, Alger sighed in frustration, then grabbed Winnie’s arm and said, “Then, we can only go home after we get everything you like.”

The saleswoman and the woman on the side snickered with ridicule in their eyes.

Winnie’s face flushed a bit, but Alger didn’t bother to look at her. He just turned around and walked to the intern.

“Slap!”

Alger took out a credit card from his chest and smacked it on the table extremely fiercely. “Give me everything Winnie has looked at previously!”

“What?!”

Winnie was shocked. She quickly went forward and said as she pulled Alger back, “Alger, what are you doing? I just want the earrings.”

“How can one pair of earrings be enough for you? I can buy you all the jewelry in this shop as long as you like them!” Alger said.

“Hahaha!”

As soon as Alger said this, the woman and the saleswoman on the side held their bellies and burst into laughter.

“That’s so nice to say. You even want to buy all the jewelry here. Can you afford to do so?” The woman almost laughed to tears.

“You look young, but you’re really good at bluffing!” The man behind the woman also said with ridicule.

“I think you don’t have money in that card. We all know what kind of a person you are. Even if you want to regain your dignity, you should look for a more appropriate excuse! You’re poor, but you still want to pretend to be a big boss!” The woman snickered.

The saleswoman glanced at the card in Alger’s hand in disdain, then looked at the woman and sneered, “Madam, how could that kind of earrings suit you? Come take a look here. We have tons of different styles in our shop!”

“Fine, those earrings indeed don’t look very nice now. I also don’t want that kind of cheap stuff!” The woman looked at Winnie and said disdainfully, then followed the saleswoman and started choosing other jewelry.

“Sir, you really want to buy them all?” the intern looked at Alger and said carefully.

“Of course!”

Alger pointed at the jewelry that Winnie liked but thought was too expensive and said, “This, this, and these, wrap them all up.”

The intern also looked a bit hesitant. She asked again, “Sir, are you sure?”

“I’ll pay by card!” Alger gave this credit card to the intern. “Last six digits of the password.”

The intern took the card and glanced at Winnie subconsciously. She was worried that Alger was doing something he couldn’t do for his dignity after being pissed off by the woman and the saleswoman.

“Alger!”

Winnie frowned and said as she pulled Alger back, “Knock it off. These are too expensive. We’ll only take the earrings!”

Winnie didn’t believe Alger had the ability to buy all the jewelry either.

Even though the woman and the saleswoman had gone to the side to pick jewelry, their attention had always been on Alger. When they noticed Winnie’s reaction, they were even more certain in their minds that there was definitely no money in Alger’s card.

“Haha, this kid is really calm. He’s still pretending at this point!” the woman said with disdain.

“It’s alright, Madam. No matter how he pretends, he’ll be exposed when he pays with his card.” the saleswoman glanced at Alger and said in a mocking tone.

The jewelry Winnie liked were all expensive. They cost at least a million dollars altogether. Even the woman’s husband couldn’t buy them all without changing his expression, let alone Alger.

So, when the woman was choosing other jewelry, she kept looking at Alger, waiting for them to embarrass themselves.

“I’ll pay by card,” Alger said again.

Seeing Alger insist, the intern couldn’t say anything else. She nodded and took out the POS machine.

“Beep!”
