Chapter 451 In The Devil’s Den

“Perhaps these clothes don’t fulfill your desires. We have more styles and colors inside, so come on

in!”

Cherise winced at the shop owner’s words.

She wouldn’t mind walking out on a bothersome woman like Sunny’s mother, but the shop owner’s

affectionate customer service made her feel ashamed to leave.

Cherise had to avert her gaze from the shop owner’s earnest and pleading eyes. Her words of rejection

died on her lips.

Taking a deep breath, Cherise gently removed the shop owner’s fingers from her sleeve one by one. “I

think I should visit other stores.”

“How do you know you won’t find what you want here? You haven’t seen everything we have to offer.

The shop owner straightened up and crossed her arms, pretending to be annoyed.

“I believe she’s the one you dislike, am I right?”

The shop owner glared at Sunny’s mother. “Leave! Stay in the back!”

Sunny’s mother gasped and clenched her fists in frustration. She opened her mouth to challenge her

employer, but before she could say a word, the shopkeeper yelled at her to leave again.

Unable to contain her embarrassment, the middle-aged woman gritted her teeth as she turned to leave

Cherise and the shop owner.

The shop owner waited until Sunny’s mother was out of sight before placing her hands on Cherise’s

shoulders and turning her around. “Isn’t it nice to shop without anyone aggravating you?”

“I promise you, we have amazing products here. Don’t let someone you dislike get in the way of a

fulfilling shopping experience!”

Cherise nodded quietly. She found herself captivated by the shop owner, unable to resist the older

lady’s charming efforts to keep her interested in the store.

Furthermore, she still had her eyes on one of the stylish suits.

Cherise had confirmed Grandpa Tanner’s measurements with Mandy. After browsing the store, she

selected a couple of outfits, paid, and left.

Sunny’s mother emerged from the back of the store, scowling at the shop owner. “That woman is not

someone you should associate with. She’s a disgusting and evil person. I didn’t expect you to

compromise your ethics for a few coins.”

“I’m not a fool like you.”

The shop owner glared at Sunny’s mother. “I’m going to profit as much as possible from despicable

people. I want her to regret her purchase!”

Sunny’s mother frowned. “What do you mean?”

“She was buying something for an elderly person. Older people have poor eyesight, so I’m sure he

won’t notice the needles I hid in the clothes.”

Sunny’s mother gasped in amazement.

“Did you…?”

“Yes, I did!”

The shop owner crossed her arms, smirking to herself. “I’m not a monster. I only put in about five

needles. These needles are coated with medication that causes itchiness, so I’m sure the elderly.

person will be irritated to the point of discomfort.”

“Aren’t you afraid she’ll come after you?”

“Why should I be?” The shop owner rolled her eyes. “She has no evidence that I did it. You could argue

that she was trying to harm the elderly person. Maybe she’s the culprit. My hands are clean.”

Sunny’s mother was astonished. “I admire your strategic mind. I wouldn’t have thought of such a plan.”

She saluted the shop owner.

If I had. I wouldn’t have gotten into an argument with Cherise. I would have convinced her to buy a few

more outfits before hiding more of those poisonous needles in the clothes.
