Chapter 14
Arabe had thought that she had enough stock tost her for at least half a year. During this time, she
wouldn’t have to worry about designing new pieces, allowing her to focus on her pharmaceutical
research and other side hustles. However, to her surprise, her parents went ahead and bought out all
her stock, some of which were even her early designs that seemed a bit outdated now.
“Miss Arabe, your name is somewhat simr to our brand’s founder. I’m wondering if you are familiar
with our boss?” Jaime asked.
“Nope.” Arabe’s answer was clear-cut. Upon hearing this, Jaime understood that the rest of the
people in the room were still unaware of the boss’ true identity.
“You’re one lucky gal, having parents who adore you so much. Look at these clothes, they’re ssic
pieces from our brand’s founder, Queen Abby. They’re perfect for someone of your stature!” Jaime
said.
“Arabe, check out this casual outfit. I bet it would look great on you.” Keh pointed out a piece
disyed on the rack.
‘Queen Abby’s designs really do stand out. Look at this skirt.” Louisa held up the skirt against Arabe,
“I can already imagine how beautiful you’d look in it.”
“Arabe, what do you think about these?” Keh showed Arabe a pair of shoes like it was his
prized possession.
“Arabe, how about this one-shoulder bag?” Louisa picked up a bag, “It looks like it was custom-made
for you, I’m sure it would look great on you.”
Arabe’s eyes were bright as stars, her demeanor elegant, as she listened to theirments. She
was naturally beautiful. Her eyes were sparkling clear, a mixture of cold and sweet temperament,
creating an indescribable charm.
Serena, on the other hand, was turning pale, her shock was beyond words. She couldn’t believe what
she was hearing! What on earth was going on? Why were her parents treating this girl like their own
daughter, even gifting her all these limited edition QY clothes?
Seeing them dote on Arabe, she began to feel a sense of panic that made her uneasy. What had
happened during the month she was at school?
“These are all in your size. If you don’t like them, Dad can have them make another batch!” Keh
looked at Arabe affectionately.
“No need.” Arabe’s eyes sparkled, her voice soft and gentle, “I think they’re all pretty good.”
Jaime could tell from the boss’ tone that she wasn’t exactly thrilled about the clothes. Couldn’t me
her, these were all her early works, meant to tide her over for a year or so. Who would have guessed
they woulde full circle back to her?
“How much for all these clothes?” Suddenly, Arabe’s gaze fell on Jaime.
Caught off guard, Jaime quickly responded, “These are all ssic pieces by our brand’s founder,
Queen Abby. The cheapest item is around three hundred thousand. As everyone knows, our founder,
who’s both smart and beautiful, most of her works are usually priced between five hundred thousand
and eight hundred thousand, with the real gems starting from a million.”
Clearly, Keh had ordered all items priced over a million for his daughter. At first nce, they were
all top-tier designs. The difference between the gems and regr pieces was the amount of time the
boss spent on the design.
Jaime had once witnessed the boss whipping up hundreds of designs in one night. The gem pieces
might take a few minutes more than the regr ones.
“So, how much in total?” Arabe raised an eyebrow, giving Jaime a meaningful look.
Jaime, not catching on, felt a bit uneasy, “Mr. Collins paid a total of thirty-eight million eight hundred
and eighty thousand to QY.”
Arabe didn’t expect to make so much money from her parents on the first day of acknowledging
them, so she was a bit uneasy, “That’s quite expensive.”
Property ? N?velDrama.Org.
“Not at all!” Jaime quickly exined, “QY doesn’t care about quantity, but quality. Each piece is a hot
seller! You’ll be the belle of the ball wearing these!”
“Indeed, not cheap. Arabe emphasized, applying a bit of pressure with her gaze.
Seeing the founder’s gaze and hearing her words, Jaime got the hint, “It is a bit pricey. How about a
10% discount
considering Mr. Collins made such arge order at once?”
*10%?” Arabe repeated his words.
“20%?” Hesitant, Jaime changed his offer upon seeing the founder’s seemingly dissatisfied expression,
“Or, 30% off? Can’t go any lower!”
Any lower would seriously devalue the brand!
Everyone was dumbfounded. Who knew she could haggle with a top-notch brand? And that much?
Keh and Louisa never thought their daughter would be such a haggling pro, talk about being
considerate!
‘Just make it twenty-seven million, and forget the change!” Jaime decided, “I’ll refund the difference
back to Mr. Collins’ ount right away.”
Keh thought his daughter was worried about him spending so much, and quickly said, “No need for
a refund. Be, Dad can afford it! Don’t feel pressured.”
“That won’t do.” Arabe firmly said, “Even with money, we can’t just throw it around. How about we
return half of the clothes?”
That way, she could sell them to other people and earn their money.
“No way.” Keh quickly objected, “How about this, Jaime, refund the money to my daughter’s
ount. She’s the one who haggled, so it should go to her! Be, give him your ount, consider it
pocket money from mom and dad.”
So much pocket money. Jaime felt out of his depth. Everyone else was envious.
Serena couldn’t believe her parents’ generosity, casually giving away so much money without batting
an eye. They’d never done this for her!
As she took a step back, Martha quickly came to her aid, whispering, “Miss, maintain your
Even though the truth was harsh, things hadn’t gotten to the worst point yet.
Serena watched as her parents, with an intimacy and warmth she’d never seen before, treated the girl
in front of them with such care. They’d even forgotten about her!
That girl always had an aloof vibe about her. Even though she toned it down a bit in front of her
parents, her inherent coldness and wilfulness were like a wild wolf that couldn’t be tamed. She could
tell at a nce that she wasn’t a good kid.
How could there be a wolf in a flock of sheep? This ce was clearly not her cup of tea! She was
totally out of sync with everything here!
“Dad, Mom, who is she?” Serena tried to keep her cool, smiling as she asked.
It was then that Keh and Louisa noticed their adopted daughter.
Louisa was the first to give an order, “Take these things to Ms. Bet’s dressing room.”
The title “Ms. Bet” made Serena feel uneasy again.
She was clearly the sixth child in their family. How came there was suddenly an extra person?
