Chapter 1

The person on the other end of the call wanted to say more, but I just hung up. I shook my phone in front of the sales assistant.“If you don’t let me take the gold back today, your store will shut down soon.”Lily Knight still looked at me with an arrogant attitude.“Don’t try to fool me. I’m not easily scared!“If you pay a cent less than $130,000, you won’t get your hands on that gold!”I could not be bothered to explain myself to someone who refused to listen. Some people only got it when reality slapped them hard across the face.“I don’t want the gold anymore. Just refund my money.”There were so many jewelry stores in Ocean City. I only chose this store because the owner was a tenant of my family’s.With how Lily has treated me, I would rather let someone else earn that money than let her scam a single cent of me.Lily was not the least bit flustered. Instead, she looked at me with a faint smile as she said, “All sales are final. Such is the unspoken rule in the industr

As I shouted, many onlookers stopped walking and looked over at me.“Is this for real? Why would such a big store do such a thing?”“The bigger the store is, the more scheming they are. The price of gold is currently rising, and that’s pure profit! Who wouldn’t be tempted?”“I’ll definitely avoid this place from now on.”When other customers in the store saw it, they were also afraid of being overcharged. They immediately left the store, and the sales assistants could not stop them.Lily glared at me.I glared back at her confidently.“I’ll be shouting here every single day until you refund my money. Let’s see who backs off first!”Unexpectedly, she turned around and called the police on me. She said I was disturbing the public peace.When the police car arrived, the crowd had grown substantially larger.Lily played the victim and was the first to say, “She held a megaphone and shouted nonsense in front of our store. She defamed our store and disrupted our business.”I direc

I finally calmed down slightly. I sized Bowie Gold up. He had an odd name, but he looked quite presentable on the outside.Just recently, he had even called me. The ten-year lease was up, and the rents in the area had doubled.He had whined over the phone about how tough business had been and begged me not to raise his rent.This incident was likely just a problem of his poor management. As long as he fired the staff later and apologized to me properly, I would just let it slide.Unexpectedly, he changed his tone and said, “But that money was actually a repayment for money that she borrowed from me. It’s not the payment for the gold.”Lily flashed a prideful smile. She sidled up to Bowie and said with a coquettish tone, “Mr. Gold, luckily you’re here, or I could’ve been treated so unfairly.”Bowie patted her butt.“Rest assured. With me here, no one can bully my employees.”I finally understood. These two people were in cahoots.Lily had the nerve to boldly and openly scam me

Right after I said that, everyone turned and stared at me.The onlookers erupted in a surprised frenzy.“What? This property is hers!”“They really picked the wrong person to mess with today. It’s uncertain who’s getting kicked out now.”Bowie took the lease contract in disbelief before he looked at me and questioned with a trembling voice, “Where did you get this contract from?”I curled my lips and chuckled. “Of course, I got it from my family!“I initially planned to sign a new contract with you after I pick up the gold accessories, and the rental cost will remain.“But I think there’s no need for that now. The contract has expired.” I pointed at him and the staff behind him. “Before tomorrow’s sunrise, I want all of you out of here!”Lily just stood out and shook Bowie.“Mr. Gold, are you out of your mind? The owners are a pair of old married couples in their fifties. She is so young. How is it possible for her to be the owner? She must have forged the lease contract, too!

He raised his arm and prepared to rush over toward me. I nimbly evaded him and kicked him to the ground.My parents only had one precious daughter, me. For my safety, they made me take self-defense classes from a young age.A drunkard like him, whose body had been drained by alcohol and indulgence, would not be a match for me.Bowie howled in pain and fell to the ground. He looked at the other staff in the store and yelled, “Are you all dead? Grab this vile woman now!”A few sales assistants looked at me with a timid gaze, but they were forced to charge at me under their boss’ orders. In a few moves, I just subdued all of them.For a moment, the jewelry store was filled with painful cries.Bowie anxiously scrambled up from the floor before he looked at me and threw down some threats.“You commit violent acts and have injured so many of my staff. Just you wait! I won’t spare you!”I looked at them with a cold expression. “It was clear that all of you ganged up on me and threaten

After speaking, he directly kicked Lily and put all the blame on her shoulders.“It’s all your fault, cheap woman! You always try to take advantage of the customers, and you even went so far as to mess with Miss Lewis. If Miss Lewis refuses to renew our lease, you can get the hell out of here!”Lily earned a high salary at this store, and she got an allowance from Bowie. Also, she regularly scammed customers through shady deals. One could tell that she was pulling in a million dollars a year.She would lose everything if Bowen kicked her out of the store.She immediately dropped to her knees before me, cried, and begged me. “Miss Lewis, I was wrong. I’m so sorry. Please forgive me this time.”She bowed her head so low that her forehead nearly touched the ground. Her hands remained clasped tightly in her lap.“Miss Lewis, I was truly blinded by greed and offended you. You’re a reputable person. Please don’t bother arguing with someone like me. Please forgive me this time and renew

Chapter 7

After I met up with Valerie, she started talking about plans with me after marriage.I felt a bit lost. I just graduated abroad, and I was about to look for a job, but my parents worried that I would find a foreigner as my boyfriend, so they kept asking me to come home and go on arranged blind dates.I initially just planned to show up and get my parents off my back, but those old folk really knew how to set me up!My blind date turned out to be exactly my type. He was like a prince straight out of a Disney story. He even had a crush on me for years.We fell in love very quickly. For the sake of harmony after getting married, I naturally could no longer go abroad. But what I should do back home also needed serious consideration.I was not short on money, so I did not want to work like a robot in the local companies. I just wanted to find something to do to keep myself from getting bored.A thought suddenly crossed Valerie’s mind, and she said, “Chloe, after the Gold guy left, you

“You still refuse to see your faults. You’re only apologizing because you’ve been backed into a corner by a force you can’t bully. If I were just an ordinary person, you would’ve walked all over me without a second thought.“Bowie Gold, don’t paint yourself as the victim. Over these years, you’ve made enough money from our family’s property to live comfortably for half your life.“This is our property. I can take it back whenever I wish. Don’t try to emotionally blackmail me. That’s not going to work on me!”I looked at him and gave him a final ultimatum.“I’m giving you another 30 minutes. Get all your belongings out here immediately, or I’ll have my people do it for you.“But my bodyguards won’t be that gentle. If they break your golden crowns or bracelets, I won’t compensate you!”Bowie heard the sternness in my voice. He also understood that there was no room left for negotiations, so he had to hurriedly take all the gold from the display cabinet with Lily.Thirty minutes pa
