“Can’t you get what I mean? I don’t need a specific model, just Gucci! Gucci!”
Laura’s expression momentarily stiffened before she explained patiently, “Madam, every bag we have
here is a Gucci. This is the official Gucci flagship store. Could you let me know which bag style you
have in mind?”
Jade was frustrated. “Can’t you grasp my words? Son, talk to her. I can’t deal with this!”
Brandon wandered through the store and pointed at a few models with the highest numbers,
saying. “This one, this one… and this one. We’ll take one of cach!”
Laura smiled. “Certainly!”

Caroline chuckled. “Well, you’re lucky not to have experienced this heart–wrenching feeling.”
Tears welled up in Caroline’s eyes as she continued. “You saved my life, and I consider you a
friend, Naomi. Honestly, tell me, what would you do in my shoes?”
