The moment the store clerks confirmed that Dahlia’s mother no longer held an active VIP membership, their attitudes underwent an astonishing shift. Just minutes ago, they had practically tripped over themselves in eagerness to serve her, but now, the glimmer in their eyes was gone replaced by thin-lipped professionalism and cold indifference.

One of them even rolled their eyes discreetly as they moved Dahlia’s shopping bags off the checkout counter without a word. Another whispered to a colleague and chuckled.

Dahlia’s mother noticed the sudden chill in the air. Her chest rose and fell with rising embarrassment. But pride wouldn’t let her retreat so easily.

At that moment she forced her lips into a tight, self-important smile and raised her chin. “This is all just a simple misunderstanding,” she said, voice brittle but loud. “Mr.Zachary will clear it up once I speak to him personally. That card he handed it to us himself. He must have had his reasons for this temporary mix-up.”

    Upon hearing what Dahlia had just said over the phone, her mother stood frozen on the pavement, staring at the screen in disbelief. Her lips trembled with anger. Dahlia the daughter she raised, the girl who used to follow her every command had just defended Raymond. That same Raymond they had mocked, dismissed, and thrown out like garbage.“Unbelievable,” she whispered, her voice cracking.Dahlia’s sister was equally stunned. “Did she just did she just hang up on you?” she asked, her eyes wide in disbelief.“She did,” her mother confirmed, her voice now rising with fury. “She actually chose to support that trash instead of her own family!”“She didn’t even ask what happened to us,” her sister added, her face red with both embarrassment and frustration. “We were kicked out like criminals and she doesn’t even care!”“Ungrateful child!” Dahlia’s mother snapped. “After everything I’ve done for her… And now she has the nerve to think Raymond is worth more than her own mother?”Fury burned

    At that moment, Dahlia’s sister shifted uneasily beside her mother, eyes darting nervously between the towering stacks of luxury items and the store clerks who were already preparing to take the order. With a tight, forced smile, she leaned in closer and said in a hushed voice, “Mom… maybe we should return a few of these. You bought too much.”Her mother, still basking in the admiration of the staff and the glares of the couple she had humiliated earlier, turned to her with visible confusion and a touch of annoyance.“Return what?” she snapped, raising her eyebrows. “We’ve got the VIP discount, don’t we? Do you know how much I’m saving with that card? This is the best time to stock up!”“But—” Dahlia’s sister started, but her words tangled in her throat.Seeing her daughter hesitate, Dahlia’s mother frowned. “What’s with you today? You’re acting weird. Just hand me the card and let’s finish this up.”At that moment Dahlia sister knew she wouldn't be able to keep it away from her mothe

    Meanwhile, just as Dahlia’s sister was fuming and stomping her way out of the restaurant, her cheeks burning with shame and resentment, her phone suddenly buzzed. She glanced down to see her mother’s name flashing on the screen. Gritting her teeth, she answered.“Where are you?” her mother’s voice snapped from the other end. “Come to the Elite Crown Shopping Mall immediately, And don’t forget to bring that VIP card! Do you hear me?”Before Dahlia’s sister could even respond or explain that the card had just been revoked in humiliating fashion, the line went dead.She stood there frozen for a moment, lips twitching, torn between rage and dread. That card was already gone. If her mother found out... but she didn’t even get the chance to say anything.Left with no other choice, she hailed a cab and headed for the mall, trying to figure out how to stall or lie her way out of it anything to delay the explosion that was sure to come.At that exact moment, inside the lavish and spacious Elit

    Dr. Damien and the mayor both gave short bows the moment they stepped into the Diamond Suite. Their postures were respectful, but the urgency in their eyes couldn’t be hidden.“Master. Raymond,” Damien said quickly, “our deepest apologies for interrupting your dinner. We wouldn’t have dared disturb you if it weren’t important.”However Raymond didn’t speak. He simply looked at them, his expression calm but unreadable.At that moment Dr.Damien swallowed and continued, “We happened to be dining downstairs when we heard that Chairman Zachary was entertaining a very distinguished guest—”“—And when we found out it was you,” the mayor added, his voice composed but laced with anticipation, “we couldn’t sit still.”Zachary, still standing off to the side, frowned slightly. Even he hadn’t expected these two to show up, here.Dr.Damien chuckled lightly, trying to ease the tension in the air. “I suppose the entire city’s talking about you now, Master. Raymond. After what happened at the banquet

    The hallway outside the Diamond Suite was wide and luxurious, lined with framed art and vases that cost more than most families made in a year.But to Clarissa, everything felt like it was pressing in on her.Her steps were stiff, her heels clicking awkwardly against the floor as she walked out, clutching her purse like it was the only thing anchoring her.Then she saw them—The very friends who had laughed with her earlier.They were seated in one of the lounge areas just outside the main dining floor, sipping from crystal glasses and chatting idly. But the moment they spotted her, their expressions shifted.Smiles curled into smirks, and then came the first blow.“Oh look, the Diamond Suite queen has returned.”Upon hearing what they just said Clarissa flinched.Another leaned forward with feigned concern. “What happened, Clarissa? Did Zachary come to escort you back to your golden throne?”The third one chimed in, voice thick with sarcasm. “We were just talking about how impressive
