Love Began with the First Meeting

Chapter 140 So Sad! Leaving With Little Molly (Part Three)

Seeing that Shirley had placed the clothes back and Molly still looked humble, Eda Mi became even more arrogant. She looked at them from head to toe and asked sarcastically," How did the two of you find the guts to come here in your counterfeit ten a penny rugs? Alas!" Eda Mi suddenly cried and attracted the attention of two shop assistants. One of them had worked with Molly, and she was also usually bullied by Eda Mi. The other one had been transferred here after Molly quit. The two assistants sympathised with Molly and Shirley and went sort out the clothes silently.

Eda Mi took out the clothes that Shirley had placed back and mockingly exclaimed," Oh my god! This is brand new, but now it's torn. It must be your fault. You did it just now..." With this, she looked at Shirley.

Shirley just looked back at Eda Mi indifferently, with a slight smile on her face. Eda Mi suddenly felt her heart miss a beat. However, she pretended to be calm and insisted," The coat is damaged, and... you'll have to compensate for it!"

Suddenly, Molly grabbed the coat out of Eda Mi's hands and gnashed. She tried all her best to inhibit her self-humiliation as she stared at Eda Mi," Oh! Does it split? Is it possible that you purchased defective clothes and are selling them? Has Falloon Mall started stocking such poor quality that their clothes split while still on the shelves?"

In the real sense, Molly was scared, until Eda Mi crossed Shirley's line. Molly couldn't take it lying down. She didn't care how much others mistreated her personally — but trying to humiliate someone else in front of Molly? No! That was unacceptable. At once, she raised her eyebrows and demanded," One more question. Where does it split, as you claim?"

Eda Mi never thought Molly would disprove her so boldly. In the past, she would rather make concessions for peaceful settlement than stir up trouble. Eda Mi was shocked. She took the coat from Molly and began to check it, but she still tried to be dominated in the oppressive air.

After all, Molly once worked here, and she knew such a coat cost an arm and a leg. If the coat really had something wrong, she would in no way afford compensating.

"You'd better check it carefully," said Shirley unflustered. She glanced at Molly and felt very happy. As she had expected, Little Molly was strong and kind-hearted! This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

"Yes, you'd better check it seriously! If there's nothing wrong, I'll demand an explanation from your shop director!" Molly said angrily.

Their conversations attracted the attention of others. The shop assistant who had sold them the dresses watched with curiosity, wondering what was happening. Obliviously, the whole drama unfolded right in front of Frank and Eric who were inspecting the mall upstairs. Following them was the senior management of Falloon Mall. They all stopped by this scene.

Frank watched in utter silence, hands in his trouser pockets. Eric likewise looked on coldly, indignant at what he saw. The senior management behind them all broke into a cold sweat. No matter who was right and who was wrong, such unprofessional conduct from the shop assistants, especially the assistant store manager, was unacceptable. The service industry was about service to customers with lots of courtesy. What was worse, this had happened in front of the president and vice president of the mall.

It seemed the case downstairs had reached an impasse. Eric turned the corner and went downstairs without saying a word. Then, Frank, together with the rest of the team followed.

"Look, here..." With the Devil's own luck, Eda Mi really found some stitches falling apart in the coat.

Shirley just looked at them slightly and said nothing. She wanted Molly to solve the problem by herself. She felt Little Molly was in essence very proud, but her pride had been killed by the reality.

"I really have nothing to say about Falloon Mall. It's really out of my expectation, an international shopping mall selling defective goods!" Molly reproached, with her eyes peering sharply at Eda Mi's face. Just as Shirley had expected, Molly didn't let her down.

"You..."

"Honey, you are right!"

Suddenly, a wild, evil voice full of connivance called out from behind. Just then, Molly was pulled by someone into arms.

As she struggled to free herself, she looked at the person behind her. Seeing that it was Eric, she was frozen and forgot to break out. Eric pulled her back again to his arms naturally, and asked her softly," Are you here for me? Why didn't you tell me in advance?"

Molly opened her mouth slightly, looking at Eric and not knowing what to say. Shirley also frowned. She was very unhappy about the way Eric was treating Little Molly. Of course, she felt the person she liked was affronted by others.

"Honey, why didn't you tell me that you wanted some new clothes?"

Indifferently, Eric looked at Eda Mi and then said to Molly," If you had told me, I would have ordered them to bring all the clothes you want to choose from to the villa, so that you didn't have to leave home for purchase."

Eda Mi didn't know Eric, but according to years of experience, she knew that such a handsome and noble-minded man might not be ordinary. Wait! What did he call Molly?

Honey?

Molly was dumbfounded by all this and didn't know what to do. Eric slightly pinched her shoulder, winking at her as a sign for her to keep still.

Of course, Molly could understand what he meant. Thinking of how Eda Mi had bullied her before, and how she had framed Aunt Shirley by telling a lie today, she said softly to Eric," Honey, I heard you were having a meeting. I was bored to the bone, so I came here with Aunt Shirley, but... unfortunately, an employee here humiliated me!" Molly said coquettishly. In particular, when she said "honey," the voice was deeply emotional.

Eric blinked slightly. He just wanted to revenge Little Molly, but when he heard her call him "honey," he felt very comfortable.

They were thinking differently, not knowing that someone was looking at Molly with piercing eyes as she called Eric "honey."

Brian stood in front of the staircase, with his eyes narrowed and teeth clenched. He just came downstairs. What a coincidence! Otherwise... he would have missed such a sweet scene!
