Chapter 24
Both of them were holding hands intimately. The woman's belly was already very big. It was obvious that she could not wear the dress that she was holding in her hand.
"But I can't wear it now."
"It doesn't matter. I'll buy it for you as long as you like it. You can wear it after giving birth to the child."
"Thank you, honey. You're so nice to me."
Kimberly silently clenched her fists. Jonathan Lowell had never treated her that way. She did not expect that she would bump into them today.
All of a sudden, the mistress turned to look at the direction where Kimberly was standing. She instinctively stepped behind to hide.
She accidentally knocked into the shop assistant when she turned around. The shop assistant immediately tried to balance herself by grabbing on to Kimberly's dress.
Unfortunately, the dress was torn apart.
Everyone in the store was looking at them, including Jonathan and the mistress.
The shop assistant panicked when she saw that the dress had been torn apart. She got up and accused Kimberly, "Do you know how much this dress costs? How dare you ruin it?"
Kimberly was stupefied. She didn't want those two people to find out that she was there. She didn't expect that she would bump into someone when she turned around.
She looked at her body after hearing what the shop assistant had just said. She realized that the dress' sleeve had been torn, revealing her fair shoulder.
Everyone in the shop was gathering around them. Kimberly was shocked as she covered her shoulder with her hand immediately. She said, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean it!"
The shop assistant sneered, "This is the best dress in this store. It has just been imported from Italy yesterday. It's worth more than 300,000 dollars."
Kimberly bit her lower lip and whispered, "I'll help you to fix it."
"How are you going to fix it?" The shop assistant said in a loud voice.
Kimberly was embarrassed when everyone started chattering about her. She felt a little dizzy.
Jonathan and his mistress approached the scene too. "Hey, isn't that Kimberly?" The mistress said when she saw Kimberly's disheveled look. She sneered, "Why are you here? You could only afford the clothes sold in the market. Oh my God! The dress is ruined. Kimberly, are you here to make trouble?"
Upon hearing this, the shop assistant was shocked. She said, "What did you say? Did you come here on purpose to cause trouble? This dress costs at least 300,000 dollars. You must compensate for it!"
The mistress chuckled, "How could she afford it? She was earning three thousand dollars a month previously, but she had recently lost her job. I'm afraid she can't even afford the clothes from the market."
Kimberly bit her lower lip even harder.
Jonathan must have told the mistress about her.
"Kimberly, why don't you ask Jonathan for help if you really can't afford it? Perhaps he would be willing to help you. After all, you two did have a history together."
Upon hearing this, Kimberly's hand trembled. She looked at Jonathan.
Jonathan was stunned when he looked into her eyes. It made him feel uneasy.
"Jonathan, are you going to help her?"
Jonathan lowered his head and looked at Bianca Sleet. He cleared his throat and held her tightly in his arms, "Baby, why would I help any other women other than you? Also, it's not worth helping this type of troublesome woman."
Kimberly's heart ached after hearing what Jonathan said.
Blood was oozing out from Kimberly's lower lip because she bit her lower lip too hard.
"Oh, dear. Even though she is very annoying, she's quite pitiful now. That dress costs 300,000 dollars. Wouldn't she be detained here if she can't afford to pay for it?"
The shop assistant took out her mobile phone and said, "I'll call the police now!"
Kimberly looked up instantly. Call the police? Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
"She is just a vain woman. Why is she here to try on the clothes if she couldn't even afford it? She must be here to make trouble. I must call the police!"
Several people echoed their sentiments.
"Yea, look at her. Her hair is so messy. How could the shop assistant let such a person enter the store?"
"Who does she think she is? Did she think she would become a person with a high social status just by trying on this dress? Look at her now. She ruined the dress and she can't even pay for it. It's so embarrassing. Well, I guess the police have to detain her so that she'll not do this again."
Kimberly was embarrassed when everyone was laughing at her and looking at her in disdain.
"Where are you, Maddox? Why did you leave me alone? Did I embarrass you that much?" She thought.
Kimberly's heart ached. Tears welled up within her eyes.
She looked up and saw the people talking about her. They were all looking at her in disdain. Her petite figure was trembling, and the feeling of despair almost made her faint.
Kimberly would feel dizzy whenever she was nervous or in a desperate situation.
Her vision started to blur and she could no longer see the faces of the onlookers clearly...
She was gradually enveloped by darkness.
All of a sudden, someone held her before she fell to the ground...
