Chapter 235 Do Not Get In The Way

Lysander patted Priscilla’s hand, and the two of them went to the checkout counter together.

Daphne handed the bill to Priscilla. “There are twenty–five items in total. To be safe, I’mostly picked essentials, including some women’s underwear. I’ve tried to spend as much of the money as possible. What do you think?”

Priscilla nodded. “That’s fine, Daphne. You’re familiar with this place, I trust.

“Okay, then let’s pay by card.”

Priscilla took out her bank card and handed it to the shop assistant.

When the shop assistant gave her the receipt to sign, Priscilla’s hand was trembling.

Lysander held her hand. “Priscilla, don’t be nervous.

Priscilla steadied herself and quickly signed her name.

“Here you go.”

The shop assistant politely packed all the items and handed them to her.

Daphne said, “She’s pregnant and it’s inconvenient for her. I’ll take them.”

“Very well, Ms. Everhart.”

“Oh, by the way, I forgot to ask, what’s your return period?”

“It’s fifteen days.”

Daphne nodded with satisfaction. “Got it. We’ll try them on at home. If there’s anything we don’t like, we might have to trouble you for a return.”

The service of the luxury store’s staff was impeccable. “It’s our pleasure.”

As they left, Priscilla felt a bit uneasy. “We bought so much, and if we return everything later, won’t it affect the staff’s performance? Will their wages be docked?”

Daphne dismissed her concern. “Don’t Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

worry. If feel bad about it, you can keep one or two items. If you’re still worried, you can privately compensate them for any lost wages.”

Priscilla felt reassured. “Then I’ll have to trouble you to ask them for me. I don’t want those two shop assistants to suffer. I can double their compensation.”

Daphne readily agreed. “Sure, leave it to me.”

As they were speaking, the elevator door suddenly opened.

A person walked out.

“Wait. Dr. Thorne…”

Lysanne caught up and blocked their way. “Dr. Thorne, can I buy you a cup of coffee? I sent a friend request a few days ago, but you didn’t accept. I really want to talk to you, can we?”

“No.” Daphne responded coldly. “We’re busy. Stop getting in our way!”

“Ms. Everhart, I’ve done a lot of wrong things in the past. I just want to sincerely apologize to Dr.

Thorne…”

“Who cares about your apology? What’s the use of it? It won’t make any difference! Also, someone like you wouldn’t apologize sincerely. Are you up to something again?”

Lysanne bit her lip, her voice trembling with tears

“I understand why you would think that. After all, I

really was… Dr. Thorne, I’ve lost my child, and I’ll never have another. This is my punishment from heaven. I truly know I was wrong. Lately, I’ve been having nightmares about Grandma Elisa. She scolds me, saying I must apologize to you in person, or she’ll never forgive me even in the afterlife and will haunt me forever… Dr. Thorne, I’m begging you, can we please talk?”

“Are you crazy or just don’t understand human language? Grandma Elisa’s death was your fault. You deserve those nightmares! What does this have to do with Lysander? If you keep bothering us, I’ll call Josiah. Let’s see if he still indulges you.”
