Chapter 845 Useless Threat
Although the manager and the sales assistant did not speak, one could clearly see the gloating in their eyes.
Seeing that these people dared to laugh at her like this, Anya almost snapped.
But this wasn’t the worst. What angered Anya the most was Sonia saying, ‘what are you’ to her.
This was the first time she had been referred to as a thing.
To Anya, this was pure humiliation.
“So, you don’t want to give me your dress, right?” Anya held the armrest of the wheelchair tightly with both hands, her voice extremely gloomy.
In response, Sonia looked at her coldly. “It’s mine. Why should I give it to you? If it was yours, would you let me have the dress?”
Of course not!
Anya replied silently.
But she didn’t show her thoughts on her face.
Moreover, in her opinion, she could steal other people’s possessions, and others had to obey her.
But if someone dared to steal from her, it would be a heinous crime and could not be forgiven.
Anya was such a hypocrite.
“So, you’re saying that you’re not afraid of people in the circle thinking that you have no sympathy and are unforgiving at all, right?” Anya narrowed her eyes and made a threat.
Sonia looked at Anya like she was a fool. “I know what you want to say and do. I’m telling you, the people in the circle are not fools. Since they have been accepted by the circle and have not been eliminated, they are all smart people. It is impossible for them to not see who’s in the wrong in this situation. If I give up the dress, it will be a shame for me and everyone in the circle. If I did that, did that mean they have to give up their possession unwillingly, too? If they don’t, does that mean they’re in the wrong and unreasonable?”
Speaking of this, Sonia stepped forward to get closer. “Miss Steinfeld, if I were to share your idea to the circle, how would they react?”
Anya’s face was pale, and a trace of panic flashed in her eyes.
How else? Of course, they would want to kill me.
She thought that if Sonia did not give in, she would make people believe that Sonia was an assertive and arrogant person. Those who cooperated with the Reed Family in the circle would keep their distance from Sonia. However, Anya never thought that her idea would offend everyone else in the circle.
Indeed. As Sonia had said, if someone took a fancy to the possession of the people in the circle and asked them for it, would it be unreasonable if they declined it?
Anya didn’t expect Sonia to quickly catch the loophole in her words.
Now, Anya was the one in a difficult situation.
Seeing Anya’s face changing like a palette, Sonia smiled coldly.
Sonia thought that Anya could hold on for long, but now she had almost lost.
As a result, Sonia smacked her lips in boredom. “Miss Steinfeld, I know that if I don’t give in to your demands, you will tell my business partners to be wary of me, and if I give in, you will make me a laughing stock. In this way, everyone will think that I’m a weakling everyone can step on. But you never thought that no one would keep their distance from me if I didn’t give in. This is because not simply letting go of my possession is right. My business partner will only appreciate me because I am a firm person, and they will be more comfortable cooperating with me. You are not a manager, so you don’t understand how it works. Moreover, you are taking them too lightly and thinking they’re stupid!”
As Sonia said that, she sneered. “If I give in, you think that people in the circle will bully me, but that’s impossible because I will never give in. Besides, even if I let you have the dress, do you think it will look good on you? Are you worthy of the dress?”
Sonia unfolded the dress, shoving it toward Anya’s face that looked ready to kill, and continued, “This dress is based on my measurements. Although you’re taller than me, your figure is too bad. Do you think you will look good in this dress? No, it’ll look ugly. You’re just an ugly woman trying to imitate beauty.”
At first, Sonia didn’t want to speak so harshly, but she really hated Anya too much.
She hated Anya to the point that she didn’t want to save any respect for her.
For some reason, she hated Anya to the same extent as she hated Tina Gray, which exceeded the hatred she had for Taylor Carey.
Obviously, Anya had no machinations besides verbal abuse, but Sonia just hated this woman a lot.
This was probably a natural misalignment.
In addition, Sonia felt that this woman’s ruthless appearance was somewhat similar to Tina’s.
Sure enough, there were similarities between the bad guys.
Anya was so annoyed by Sonia’s words that she could hardly bear it, so she stood up from the wheelchair and rushed over in an attempt to strangle Sonia to death.
Sonia Reed, I’m okay with you mocking something else, but not my figure! You even made me sound worthless!
Is this still the same cowardly Sonia from the past?
Even the manager and sales assistant on the side didn’t expect Sonia to be so merciless. When Sonia was getting serious about hurting people, it would hit where it hurts.
However, upon seeing Anya being roasted, they still felt happy.
“Fine, you win.” After a while, Anya finally took a deep breath and smiled coldly. “Since I can’t get this dress, you can’t have it either.”
As soon as these words came out, everyone, including Sonia, became vigilant.
It was especially so for the manager and sales assistant.
The manager stared at Anya. “Miss Steinfeld, what do you want to do?”
Does this woman want to ruin the dress?
Another sales assistant took out her mobile phone and entered the police department’s contact number. As soon as Anya made a move, she would immediately call the police.
Anya glanced at the mobile phone in the sales assistant’s hand and snorted. “Don’t worry, I won’t do something stupid like destroying the dress. I know that I will never be able to get out of this store once I do, and the compensation fee can bankrupt me.”
Hearing this, the manager and the sales assistant were relieved.
The sales assistant also put down the phone.
Only Sonia still tightly grabbed the dress hanger and stared at Anya with squinted eyes. “Then what do you want?”
Anya sneered. “Manager, I remember you said that if I want a custom-made dress like this, I need the permission from the owner and a VIP membership, right?”
“Yes.” Although the manager didn’t know what Anya meant, she still nodded and answered truthfully.
Anya went on to say, “Getting a VIP membership requires you to spend more than 100 million in any store of your brand. Since customizing such a dress requires a VIP membership, the same is required for commission, right? As far as I know, Miss Reed’s Paradigm Co., which is currently not profitable, is ranking at the bottom in the city. Does Miss Reed have 100 million to spend?”
Seeing that Sonia pursed her lips and said nothing, Anya smiled proudly. “I don’t think so. Then Miss Reed definitely doesn’t have a VIP membership. Since she doesn’t, how can Miss Reed succeed in making a request for a commission? You must be letting her walk through the back door. Then, don’t blame me for exposing this truth to the public and making your brand less valuable.”
The manager raised her eyebrows as she immediately understood what Anya meant. The sneer in her eyes dissolved immediately. “So, what you mean is that, I should take back the dress and not let Miss Reed have it?”
“That’s right.” Anya raised her chin arrogantly.
Anya firmly believed that Sonia had walked through the back door.
In the past, Anya was wealthier than Sonia, but she still didn’t manage to spend 100 million on this brand. So, Sonia couldn’t have the VIP membership.
Therefore, something had to be wrong with the origin of this dress.
