Chapter 540 TIME CHANGES PEOPLE

"At first, Mr. Tordoff wanted to send about ten or twelve additional people." Adam grimaced when he saw the surprised look on Apple\'s face. He told Apple what he knew and heard. "But don\'t worry, your father managed to calm him down a bit and only sent four extra people."

Apple frowned. She wanted to know what made Jayden behave the way he was doing now. He didn\'t usually act rashly like this, especially when things were important. But, his actions seemed to show that he was… desperate? Is she under threat?

Apple then opened her phone and saw that there were three missed calls from Jayden and a text message from him asking when they would finish shopping.

She then replied to the short message and said that maybe just before this shopping center closed they would be finished, because it seems that Hailee will only leave after this shopping center closes.

"Apple dear, come and try on this jewelry," Hailee called excitedly, waving a necklace in her hand.

How could Hailee be holding such an expensive necklace and swinging it carelessly, as if it had no value? Well, money can indeed make anyone reckless like her.

"Enjoy your shopping," Adam said, he smiled slightly when he saw the look on Apple\'s face.

"Yeah, I hope I can enjoy it, let\'s see how long I will last," Apple replied, which made Adam laugh. She really expected a miracle to happen, then she walked toward Hailee.

Once Apple was near Hailee, she immediately asked her to wear the necklace she had chosen.

The necklace looked beautiful and so luxurious on her, but, Apple couldn\'t stop staring at her reflection in the mirror either, she looked beautiful and graceful, and she had to admit it.

"So? She looks pretty, doesn\'t she?" Hailee said proudly while showing Apple to the female staff who helped them choose a necklace for Apple.

"Of course, of course," the staff girl was parroting, she nodded her head with a wide smile on her lips. "No wonder why Mr. Tordoff chose herself to be his partner, she looks very beautiful and docile. Otherwise, Mr. Tordoff definitely wouldn\'t want to be with her."

Hailee raised an eyebrow when she heard this. "Are you saying that my son is only interested in artificial things?"

The girl laughed softly, looking embarrassed that Hailee could understand the meaning behind her words so well, but not shy enough to admit it, of course in much better words when she admitted it.

"Isn\'t that natural, a man like your son, who is so handsome and well-respected, would want someone beautiful beside him, and Mr. Tordoff is still so young and it wouldn\'t be a bad thing to play around with a few women before he decides which woman deserves to be settled down." The female staff didn\'t even show any discomfort when she said that.

The girl\'s last comment made the smile on Apple\'s lips fade. The corners of her lips twitched. What does she mean? So she thinks Jayden only chose her because she\'s pretty and submissive? Is Jayden choosing a pet over a life partner?

Had Hailee not been there, Apple would have uttered the most sarcastic words she had ever heard in her life. But, sadly, Apple didn\'t want to get into trouble in front of Hailee and create unnecessary mess.

Only, Hailee didn\'t have the same thoughts. Of course, she caught what the female staff meant by her last comment and she wasn\'t blind to how the female staff looked at Apple with condescending eyes.

Well, one shouldn\'t do that, especially in front of Hailee. Insulting Hailee\'s precious people should be the last thing on your list in her presence.

"Can I call someone else?" Hailee asked in a calm voice. She looked graceful and unbelievably dignified even when she was upset like now.

The girl in front of them whose name was Diana, whose name tag could be seen as she brushed her hair, looked a little confused, but then she called out to one of her friends, who came over to the two of them with a friendly smile.

She greeted Hailee and then Apple, she knew Apple from the news, of course she recognized her immediately.

The attitude of this second girl is much more friendly and polite toward Apple than the first girl who occasionally threw a condescending glance at her.

"Can I help you?" the girl asked in a cheerful voice.

"I want this necklace," Hailee said, then she added. "Sell it under your name."

Hailee knew very well that each staff member would get a two percent bonus from every sale they saw through, therefore, with the fantastic price of the necklace she was about to buy, of course the staff would get a bonus enough to have fun.

The first staff member looked surprised and tried to say that she was the one who had served since earlier, but seeing Hailee\'s cynical look, all the words of protest she wanted to throw back were swallowed and in the end she didn\'t say anything.

While the second staff member happily wrote proof of purchase on her behalf and served Apple and Hailee cheerfully.

Seeing that, Apple wanted to laugh. Hailee had her own way of dealing with people like this, without even raising her voice or uttering harsh words. Hm, a valuable lesson that Apple could learn from her.

When they had bought what they needed and walked out of the outlet, Hailee then grumbled.

"Don\'t you feel irritated when you hear such things?" Even Hailee had experienced something like this when she was with Ramon.

"I wanted to be sarcastic actually, but you handled it better," Apple said with a low laugh.

Hailee smirked too. "At your age, I\'d use some sharp words for her impertinence, but it seems time has changed my personality." Hailee then glanced at Apple. "I was pretty reckless when I was your age too, so next time, don\'t hold back on standing up for yourself."
