She Left She Thrived She’s Worth Billions novel Chapter 944

"You don't understand, this was designed by the world-renowned maestro, Cynthia Vance. That's why..."

"That's why nothing! It's all a scam."

Alistair shook his head in sheer disbelief and aggressively shoved the gown back onto the rack.

"Let's go. We're finding another store. This place is a complete ripoff. Tens of thousands for a cotton dress? Do I look like an idiot?"

"But..."

"No buts! I'll take you to a store that actually suits you. I guarantee you'll look stunning."

Elara was practically manhandled, physically shoved toward the boutique's exit by Alistair.

"Mr. Whitmore, Ms. Royce, let's grab dinner sometime! Drinks are on me!"

Tossing those parting words over his shoulder, Alistair finally left.

The boutique was once again occupied only by Melanie, Preston, and the owner, Cynthia.

"Tsk!"

Cynthia crossed her arms over her chest and scoffed loudly.

"If he can't afford it, he should just say he can't afford it. All those ridiculous excuses."

Melanie couldn't hold back a laugh, thinking that the fact Cynthia hadn't torn into Alistair to his face was already showing him far too much mercy.

"Ms. Royce, you finally have some peace and quiet. Please, take your time."

Melanie was a bit taken aback when Cynthia suddenly grabbed her hand warmly.

Honestly, she had been secretly hoping to slip out and find a different boutique entirely!

"Since you clearly have such a deep appreciation for true artistry, I'm going to do something unprecedented. I'll give you a fifty percent discount."

Melanie was genuinely stunned.

"I couldn't possibly..."

Melanie had heard that the absolute highest discount Cynthia ever offered, even to VIP members, was five percent.

Just as jewelry, handbags, and fashion had their ultra-luxury labels, Cynthia was practically the Hermes of Classical Bespoke Gowns.

For an elite luxury brand to casually slice its prices in half, Melanie truly didn't think she carried that kind of weight.

"Don't be modest. It's incredibly rare to find a young person who understands the craft as well as you do. Consider it a gift for making my day."

Seeing that Cynthia was entirely sincere, Melanie stopped politely declining and offered her deepest thanks.
