Chapter 263
Joanne's adorable face filled up Catelyn's entire screen, yet she had no complaints.
"I'm super-duper touched. Please come home soon."
Both of them bantered for a bit and Catelyn subconsciously walked past a Chandier Jewelry outlet.
Summer was their peak sales season.
The shop was filled with people, but they had implemented a 'one staff, one customer' strategy, so most people in there were just window-shopping.
Even though she managed to get into the finals, the winner would still have to be chosen by Granny Atherton, and only with this could an individual win the cash prize.
Catelyn thought to herself, 'Go big or go home.' Since Jamie had been giving her trouble while she struggled to get a new job, she decided to put all her effort into studying Chandier Jewelry’s best selling products.
The staff were busy with their customers and had no time to serve Catelyn, but she did not mind.
Catelyn was impressed by Chandier Jewelry's designers and noticed each of the designs had its unique points.
Two hours passed by quickly.
Most customers had left at that point. All of a sudden, a lady in her seventies walked into the shop when Catelyn had the staff show her one of the jewelry.
She wore a long, dark dress with minimal patterns on it. A cane accompanied her as she walked, and her gaze was sharp as blades. One could tell from the way she dressed that she was undeniably wealthy, if not of royalty.
The eyes of the staff that assisted Catelyn immediately sparkled in anticipation.
This woman had to be a heavy spender!
"Welcome to Chandier Jewelry, Ma'am." The staff immediately went to assist the lady instead. "How can I help you today?"
The old lady looked at the staff and said, "I'm looking for a birthday gift for a young family member of mine, and she's in her twenties. What would you recommend?"
The staff thought for a brief moment before carefully retrieving a tray of lavish gemstones with her gloved hands.
Those gemstones had just arrived and were in tip-top condition. Most importantly, they were extremely costly.
"Ma'am, what do you think of these?" The staff was afraid that the old lady might not like it and was trying her best to sway her. " Even though diamonds are still the more popular choice amongst the majority of people, these sapphires and rubies are of top grades and a rare find. Since you've mentioned that it's a gift for a younger family member, she'll surely be ecstatic to receive such a gift from you."
The old lady had a pure jadeite on her ring finger, and it was obvious that she was well-versed in gemstones.
She glared at the staff and scoffed, "Do you usually sell your products this way?"
The staff was dumbfounded at this remark.
Had she somehow offended the old lady? Did she not like her recommendations?
"If you don't like these, I can recommend something else for you... n
The old lady looked at the nameplate on her chest and said, " Where's your manager?"
The staff panicked in an instant. What did she do to offend her?
Catelyn heard everything and learned that the old lady was unsatisfied with the staff's professionalism.
The gemstones that she recommended were lavish, but they were not suitable for a young lady in her twenties. They were more suitable for mature ladies, instead.
"Ma'am, why don't you have a look at this?"
The old lady paid no attention to Catelyn at first and was slightly offended when she heard her.
Kids these days; utterly disrespectful.
However, the old lady froze in place when she saw Catelyn's face.Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
