Chapter 927


    The consultant’s face drained of color instantly, leaving her stunned and falling t on her butt from


    the half–crouch position she was in.


    “What?!” Everyone in the store gasped, unable to believe what they were seeing.


    “I heard that Ms. Reeves was arrested and all her properties were actually inherited from Chloe’s


    mother.”


    “Is that for real? She was that Star we were talking about a while ago, right?”


    “Wow, that’s insane! I knew she looked familiar, but I didn’t think that Star would actually show up


    here!”


    “We heard rumors that Star was our boss, I guess we can finally breathe easy now!”


    The staff could hardly contain their excitement, staring at Chloe as if she were their savior.


    Nathan, standing nearby, had his eyes wide open, and said excitedly. “So Chloe owns this shop! No


    wonder!”


    Katie nodded in agreement, “Chloe is really something.”


    “She’s the boss?” The consultant looked terrified, his face getting paler as she looked at Chloe.


    Chloe turned around and looked down at the two people on the floor, then turned her gaze to the


    consultant and said coldly, “Now, am I qualified to ask you to leave?”


    The consultant’s face changed, and she pulled her knees towards her chest, retreating a bit. She


    avoided Chloe’s gaze, trembling with fear.


    Compared to her previous arrogance, she now seemed to be in a state of shock, which brought a


    smile to Chloe’s face.


    The manager quickly stood up upon seeing this, and approached Chloe, “Ms. Summers.”


    Chloe took two steps back, stopping him froming any closer.


    The manager looked embarrassed but didn’t have time to worry about that. He smiled and said,


    “Ms. Summers, you don’t need to say it. I will immediately fire this


    woman.”


    Chloe nced at the woman on the floor who didn’t resist her husband’s decision to fire her, then


    looked at the manager coldly, “I pay for employees, not bosses.” The manager nodded, looking


    pale, “Fired, definitely fired.”


    Chloe gave a faint smile, stood for a while, then looked at the manager with a smirk and said slowly,


    “Also, show me the sales records here. And, the consolidated performance sheet of all branches in


    this district, and their inventory records.”


    Upon hearing this, the manager’s face changed drastically.


    The consultant sat on the floor, trembling violently. She looked up at the manager, but met Chloe’s


    sharp gaze instead, making her even more flustered. She avoided Chloe’s gaze anxiously.


    N?velDrama.Org owns this.


    Chloe raised an eyebrow, slowly walked over to a high chair next to the counter, and sat down.


    “What’s wrong?” She asked coldly, making the manager tense.


    “I’ll handle it right away.” The manager turned around, meeting the consultant’s gaze. The


    consultant red at him angrily, her eyes filled with rage.


    The manager took out hisptop and a few minutester, showed Chloe the sales records of this


    branch.


    Chloe started checking the records right on the counter.


    The store fell silent, everyone watching Chloe scrutinize theputer screen, barely daring to


    breathe. Especially the manager. He lowered his head, his hands. tightly sped together, his


    knuckles turning white.


    The consultant also stood up, but stayed where she was. Her face looked pale, biting her lip hard.


    Her eyes were fixed on Chloe.


    Since it was a luxury store, the daily transactions weren’t that many. It didn’t take her long to go


    through the sales records of the past few months.


    From the records, it seemed that Wendy really liked the products of this brand. She purchased quite


    a number of items here. Pendants, earrings, rings, and bracelets. She would buy a lot of stuff each


    time she came. And every time after Wendy bought something, the store would sell a few items


    simr to what Wendy had bought.


    The consultant imed it was the good luck that Wendy brought, it seemed she was right.


    But…


    Chloe checked Wendy’s most recent transaction and found that she had made a purchasest night


    around nine. She looked at the salesperson’s note, and then asked, “Who is Laura?”


    As soon as she heard the name, someone responded immediately, “It’s me.”


    Chloe looked at her, a girl who seemed innocent and clean, a little timid, but very pure. Clearly, she


    was afraid of her.


    “Did you handle this transaction?” Chloe pointed to Wendy’s purchase record on theputer and


    asked.


    Laura looked and nodded repeatedly, “Yes, the transaction waspleted around 9:20st night.”


    Chloe rested her chin on her hand, staring at theputer screen, lost in thought. She


    remembered the subtle change in Wendy’s expression just now. So that was why-


    She bought itst night, but she didn’t see her wearing it just now. Was she nning to put it on in


    the evening?


    Chloe’s contemtion made the manager and the consultant very nervous. Just then, someone


    asked softly, “Laura, weren’t you on the morning shift yesterday? Howe you were on the night


    shift too?”


    Hearing this, Chloe raised her eyes to look at the group.


    Laura’s face turned red instantly. But the person who was even more flustered, and looked more


    fearful, was Coco standing next to her, whose expression changed from confusion to panic.


    “Laura has been working night shifts for several months now. She doesn’t even have time to get to


    work in the mornings, and she has to workte into the night. This kind of schedule leaves her


    stressed all day, and the only time she gets to rest is when she’s sleeping!”


    Another salesperson continued toin, ncing at Coco with disdain, “Some people are really


    shameless, making others cover their night shifts every day. It’s just disgusting.”


    This look and expression were obviously directed at Coco.


    Coco looked panicked, casting a pleading look at the manager next to her.
