Chapter 29 Adela Is Defeated
Melissa could feel Murray’s intense stare at her back. She smiled sweetly. “No worries. It’s my
pleasure.”
Marc was happy to find Dolly and said, “Jose, bring tableware. Meli, come to have dinner.”
“Yes, Mr. Marc,” Jose did as ordered right away.
Marc moved his seat to the side and gestured to Melissa to sit beside Murray.
“Thank you, Mr. Marc.” Melissa sat in the empty seat beside Murray
“Meli, thank you for finding Dolly.” Marc hugged her. If it was not Melissa, he would lose Dolly. He would
feel guilty for his late wife. Fortunately, Dolly came back,
“I just happened to meet Dolly.” Melissa petted Dolly
Dolly was fluffy and soft. The doctor in the pet hospital took good care of it, curing its injuries. It looked
very healthy and cute.
When Melissa petted it, Dolly shook its tail. It seemed to be very affectionate with her touch.
Marc laughed, “Dolly likes you.”
Marc was so satisfied with Melissa that Adela envied her. But she could only pretend to be nice.
Melissa’s gift was better than Adela’s then Melissa mocked her for wearing counterfeit. Now, Marc
especially wants to stand by Melissa because she found his beloved puppy.
Adela was defeated at pleasing Marc.
“Enjoy your food.” Marc kindly said to Melissa.
Melissa nodded when suddenly a peeled prawn was put in her bowl. She surprisingly looked at Murray.
He shrugged, “I don’t like eating prawns.”
He especially peeled prawns for her. Melissa was a little bit startled. How could Murray, such an
arrogant man, help others peel prawns? Melissa was confused. Maybe because she helped Mr. Marc
find Dolly?
“Thank you.” Melissa blinked at him.
Adela witnessed what Murray did for Melissa. She was totally out of her mood since he knew
Murray lied. Murray liked eating prawns! She peeled prawns for Murray, but he refused. Now, he was
peeling prawns for Melissa!
Adela was again defeated at pleasing Murray! She had never lost so many games to a woman.
Melissa the bitch! Adela cursed her and decided to take revenge on her.
After dinner, Marc took a nap. Murray went to work, and Melissa went shopping.
Melissa had Harley’s party to attend at night. Whereas, when Melissa went to the pet hospital to
pick up Dolly, her clothes got dirty and wrinkled. Thus, Melissa decided to buy a new one.
Melissa came to the most fantastic luxury store in Aldness. She knew Red had signed a contract with
Loe Studio, so that the Ailsa series would be sold in Red boutique for this season.
Just as Melissa stepped into the store, she saw the Ailsa dress designed by her hanging in the most
dazzling shelf in the window.
Melissa wanted to try it on. She was eager to know how she would look like in her designing dress.
“Excuse me, Miss, I would like to have a try on this dress.” Melissa said to the salesperson beside her.
The salesperson was arrogant. With her eyes raking Melissa, she found Melissa’s clothes dirty and
wrinkled.
Red’s targeted customers were the rich and influential ladies in Aldness. Melissa was new in this city
and she was very low-key.
The salesperson didn’t know Melissa so she thought Melissa was poor.
The salesperson replied Melissa impatiently, “Sorry. This dress was designed by Loe. It’s valuable and
expensive. You can’t try it if you cannot afford it.”
Melissa frowned. For goodness’ sake, she was despised? This salesperson thought she couldn’t buy
her own design dress? Please, not to mention a piece of dress, she could buy the whole shop. This
salesperson is so rude and even looked down on her?
“I can’t try it if I don’t buy it?” Melissa took out a black card from her bag and slapped it on the table.
“Then I’ll buy it!” she said.
The salesperson has worked in the luxury store for years and has seen many officials and noble
people. She recognized that this card was a limited global VIP card. It could be used for unlimited
consumption. Only a few respected people could have it.
With a suspicious gaze, the salesperson took a closer look at Melissa. Although the clothes on her
were dirty, the workmanship of her clothes was dedicated and the clothing looked very high-end.
Moreover, Melissa was gorgeous.
The salesperson guessed Melissa might be a anonymous rich young lady or a lover of a rich boss.
Whatever, she could not afford to offend Melissa.
“Sorry Miss, my bad, the fitting room is over there.” The salesperson took out the gown carefully and
handed it to Melissa.
Melissa snorted, took the dress, and walked to the fitting room.
Taking a look at the dress, Melissa found the dress much better than she expected. The design,
workmanship, and fabric were all first-class. Obviously, Nina has tried her best to make this dress,
which builds more reputation for their studio. Putting on it, Melissa was satisfied with the dress fitting
like a glove as if it was specially customized for her.
Just as Melissa walked out, she heard a familiar woman’s sound, carrying a bit of arrogance, “Give me
the Ailsa dress produced by Loe Studio.”
It was Adela.
The young woman next to Adela was Julie.
The last time they met at the banquet, Julie and Adela tried to frame Melissa for stealing.
Adela was a frequent customer and VIP of RD. The salesperson flattered her immediately, “Ms. Yale,
please come in!”
Adela gave the salesperson a glimpse, “Give me the Ailsa dress.”
The salesperson smiled bitterly, “Sorry, Ms. Yale. It was sold.”
“By whom?” Adela asked. Just now at the Gibson’s house, Adela was mocked by the country bumpkin
Melissa. She was furious. Therefore, Adela rushed to the Red boutique to buy the Ailsa dress.
That dress could only belong to her Adela. Who dares to buy it?
Whoever the buyer is, she will rob the dress back.
Melissa walked out of the fitting room. The salesperson pointed in Melissa’s direction and muttered
worriedly, “This lady has bought it.”
Adela gazed at Melissa with a stony expression. Unfair! How could Melissa be so beautiful in the white
Ailsa dress? She was like a fairly in the tales.
The décolleté design revealed her sexy collarbone and the fishtail rim perfectly wrapped around her
slim waist. Her body was a pretty S curvy. She was so noble, elegant, charming, and saucy that people
couldn’t take their eyes off her.
It was Melissa who took the dress! Melissa again!
Adela’s eyes flashed with jealousy. She pointed at Melissa and said to the salesperson, “I’ll buy this
dress! Wrap it up for me!” Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.
The salesperson was in a dilemma, “but … the lady said she bought it.”
“Did she pay?” Adela asked in a bad tone.
“Not yet.” The salesperson hesitated.
“No payment, no buying. Wrap it up.” Julie stepped in between Adela and the salesperson, rolling her
eyes at the salesperson.
“But…….”the salesperson opened her mouth, trying to say something.
“Stop arguing with me!” Adela shouted.
Then next second, “bang!” she slammed her face.
“Want to get fired?” Adela seethed.
