Likewise, the bystanders also recalled the earlier incident. Even they felt somewhat dissatisfied seeing how the sales assistant was trying to avoid her apology.
"Why aren't you saying anything now? Weren't you acting so arrogant earlier?"
"Exactly. You looked down on other people, so you shouldn't be a sales assistant. You're an employee, too, and it's not like you're rich either. Why would you look down on others?"Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
"They're right. Hurry up and apologize unless you're someone who goes back on your own words?"
With everyone speaking up and pressuring her, the sales assistant had no choice but to apologize to Leon Batton and Lte Batton.
"I'm sorry," she muttered, her face reddening. "I was ignorant and misunderstood the two of you. Please accept my sincerest apology on this matter.”
Deeply humiliated, she wished she could disappear on the spot.
"Forget it. We're all equal. I hope you won't look down on anyone else in the future," Lte said with a dismissive wave of her hand.
The store manager sensed something was wrong. "What exactly happened?"
A nearby employee hurriedly whispered in her ear to fill her in. She looked livid upon finding out about the whole situation.
"How could you treat our supreme VIP like this? Someone unprofessional like you shouldn't work in our store!" she exclaimed.
“I-I was only-” the sales assistant trailed off.
She was close to tears. She didn't think it would cause her to lose her job.
"Don't give me excuses. Pack up and leave right now," the manager informed her firmly.
Lte and Leon felt sorry for the mortified woman.
"Leon, I think she has already learned her lesson now. Why don't we plead for her?" Lte whispered to her brother as she tugged at his sleeve. "You're right. People should have a chance to change their ways," he replied.
The siblings weren't the kind of people to hold grudges or be vindictive even though the staff offended them.
"Hey, please don't fire this lady,"
Lte spoke politely. "She's already apologized to us. Since she's aware of her mistake and is willing to change, can you give her another chance?"
The bystanders praised her even further upon hearing her words-
"Wow! She's such a nice girl!"
"Exactly. She is not only pretty and comes from a wealthy family, but she's also such a kind person. Indeed, none of us can compare."
"Sigh. There is no way we can compare to her. I'm so envious of her!"
The store manager decided to let the sales assistant off the hook after some consideration. "All right. Since our supreme VIP client has pleaded your case, I'll look past this incident, but this better be the last time."
"Oh, that's a relief! Thank you for letting me stay," the sales assistant said in gratitude.
"I'm not the one you should be thanking," the manager stated. "You should thank our supreme VIP client."
"You're right. Thank you for not holding a grudge against me," the sales assistant said while holding Lte's hand.
"It's fine. Make sure you don't look down on others next time." Lte smiled before pulling away from her.
"Okay, okay. There won't be a next time, I promise!" she replied confidently.
The siblings nodded their approvals and then completed the purchase before leaving the Hermes outlet after the minor commotion. They soon put everything that happened in the store behind them.
They browsed around the mall until YSL's new gift set caught Lte's attention.
She retrieved a tomato-colored YSL tester lipstick and applied it gently onto her pursed lips. Her lips were naturally light-colored, so this tomato- colored lipstick gave her a more vibrant look.
"Leon, look. This lipstick looks great on me, right? Can you buy this for me, please?" she pleaded with her best puppy dog gaze. "Leon, I know you're the best brother ever. Surely, you'll buy it for me, won't you?"
She was so pleased with her reflection in the mirror that she turned around to share her enthusiasm with her brother.
"All right, all right. As long as you're happy," Leon said affectionately.
