Chapter 1352 His Blunder
Chloe was boiling with indignation, yet Wynter’s charming face left her at a loss for words. She had never encountered anyone quite as charismatic as Wynter.
When Wynter started apologizing, Chloe hurriedly interjected, “It’s fine. You might not have my size anyway.”
Wynter refuted, “Nonsense. With such a beautiful figure, you’ll look absolutely stylish in these clothes. Why not give them a try and see how they fit?”
The conversation took a sharp turn when she abruptly added, “I think this sales assistant might be considering a resignation. After all, she can afford to spend 280 dollars on clothes without even trying them on. She must be quite affluent.”
Vivien made a sour face at Wyner’s remark. “Young lady, even if you’re friends with Mr. Whitman, do you think it’s appropriate to meddle in the store’s affairs? I admit I lost my composure earlier. Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
“I had just gone through a breakup and wasn’t quite myself today, but I’m sure Mr. Whitman understands my feelings. Please allow me to apologize to this lady. I’m very sorry, miss.”
Though Vivien’s apologies were loud and clear, her eyes betrayed her indignation. She sincerely believed she hadn’t done anything wrong.
That said, she needed the job, which promised a salary of six thousand dollars along with meals and lodging benefits. It was an offer she could never find back in her hometown.

Understanding Chloe’s feelings, Wynter apologized once more and showed her to the dressing room. Upon her return, she found Vivien still in tears while Cyrus looked completely lost.
Wynter walked over and stated in a calm voice, “Why are you thinking so hard about this? Such an employee would be immediately dismissed from any other store. If it were up to me, I’d have asked her to leave right away.”
Hearing that, Vivien swiftly turned to Wynter with a scornful glare. “Why are you so mean to me? I haven’t. wronged you in any way. I’ve explained I was in a bad mood because of a breakup. Besides, it’s exhausting to work all day in the store. I…”
“Just because you’re in a bad mood doesn’t mean you can take it out on the customer. If you’re tired of the job, you can always submit your resignation. You’re paid for the job, and if it’s not working out for you, you can just leave.
“To be blunt, who do you think you are to belittle a customer just because they’re poor? Is this the kind of training you received? If so, I’m starting to see the Whitman family in a different light,” Wynter refuted coldly.
Though her words weren’t overly harsh, they weighed heavily on Cyrus‘ heart. He once believed that freedom wasn’t a bad thing and viewed his elders as conservative. After all, young people like him. preferred a laid–back lifestyle.
The younger generations were known for reshaping workplace culture, often quitting impulsively when dissatisfied with their jobs. Cyrus, too, had always offered the utmost respect and understanding to his employees.

experience for the customers. More importantly, he never considered that such a trivial incident could reflect poorly on the Whitman family.
Upon serious reflection, Cyrus came to understand the damage he had caused. Even with his declaration to start an independent business, his family would still face criticism for any issues since he was the one running the specialty store.
