Dumping Him for His Uncle (Natasha and Zachary)

Natasha hadn't been back to campus for a long time. When she chose not to pursue further studies, many of her professors had tried to persuade her

The next afternoon, as she walked through the boutique, she asked, "Could I take a look at that scarf?"

Tomorrow, she would return to Hawthorn University. Back then, those professors had always been kind to Natasha, especially Elvira Goodman.

Natasha remembered Elvira vividly-she was a strong, capable woman, and this scarf would match her perfectly.

"Miss, you really have a good eye. This scarf is made from 100% mulberry silk, and the designer is a well-known name overseas..."

Before the sales assistant, Diana Shortle, could finish her sentence, a loud, arrogant laugh interrupted her. "What's the point of telling someone poor and uncultured about the designer? She wouldn't even recognize the name."

Natasha didn't need to turn around to know who it was.

"No need to explain it. Just wrap it up for me."

Diana gave a gentle smile and nodded, understanding.

This scarf was worth 30 thousand dollars. If it were in the past, Natasha would never have considered buying it.

But given it was a gift for a respected professor, Natasha knew it had to be something of quality.

Just as Diana was preparing to wrap it up, Nicole's voice rang out, "Hey, you!"

Diana looked confused but reluctantly stopped what she was doing.

"Miss, I'm currently helping this customer. We have other staff who can assist you f you need them," Diana explained calmly.

The high-end luxury store's sales assistants were well-mannered. In comparison, Nicole was nothing but rude.

"What I'm buying is far more expensive than whatever she's getting. I specifically want you to assist me are you not willing?" Nicole demanded, her tone making it clear that she would make a scene if she wasn't served.

"Alright, miss. Please wait a moment. I'll get it wrapped up quickly."

As she turned to resume, Nicole suddenly burst out angrily, "What, are you too incompetent to understand a simple request? How hard is it to wrap a scarf?"

Diana looked helplessly at Natasha, not wanting to argue with the crazy woman.

"You can give me everything, and I'll pack it myself."

Seeing Nicole's behavior, the other sales assistants were too afraid to help Natasha. None of them wanted to become her next target.

Diana sighed with relief, thankful that Natasha wasn't confrontational. Otherwise, the scene would have turned chaotic.

Natasha had already backed down as much as she could, but she didn't expect Nicole to keep pushing, taking things even further without any intention of stopping.

Taking advantage of Natasha's moment of distraction, Nicole grabbed the scarf, threw it on the ground, and stomped on it several times.

The scene drew laughter from Nicole's friends who were following her.

"Sorry, Nat, I didn't see it and accidentally stepped on it a few times," Nicole said smugly before turning to browse the store.

The store manager, Lara Griffith, approached with a polite smile. "I'm sorry, miss. Our store policy is that once an item is sold, it can't be returned or exchanged unless there's a quality issue."

Lara finished speaking and carefully watched Natasha's expression, only to find she wasn't upset.

"I haven't paid yet, so it hasn't been sold, right? Whoever made the mess should pay for it. Please get me another one," Natasha said calmly.

Lara couldn't find a way to argue with that.

"This is the last one we have in stock, miss. Would you like to take a look at some other styles?" Lara asked as she quietly signaled one of the other sales assistants to speak with Nicole about covering the cost of the scarf.

If Nicole refused to take responsibility, the entire store staff would have to cover the cost of the 30 thousand dollar scarf.

They didn't earn much and couldn't afford to cover the cost.
