But if we talk about the person she dislikes the most in school, then it’s definitely Laura Mond!
As the two were browsing, they came across a display case. Tina spotted a set of limited edition Sleeping Cat stamps inside the case.
Tina’s eyes lit up. She had seen this set of stamps online before and had wanted it badly.
However, due to its limited edition, when she saw the price, she was taken aback. The price was not something she could afford with her pocket money.
“Chandler, can you help me buy it? I really like this set of stamps!
But it’s so expensive, I can’t afford it,” Tina said, acting cute towards Chandler.
The price of this seal is nothing to Chandler. “If you buy it, your can’t tell your classmates any of my information anymore,” he said.
“Okay, I promise!” She quickly reassured.
Anyway, it’s as simple for her as eating vegetables.
Chandler walked up to a nearby staff member and said, “Can you help me pack up this set of stamps…?”
Just as he was about to finish speaking, another little girl’s voice rose up, “I want this stamp set!”
Chandler turned his head and looked at the other person. He squinted slightly and recognized the little girl as Laura Mond, whom Tina had mentioned earlier.
As soon as Tina saw Laura Mond, she reacted like a startled little kitten, “Laura Mond, why do you always have to take my things!”
“What are you doing with that thing? You haven’t paid for it!” Laura Mond said, her eyes fixed on
Chandler.
Tina’s older brother is famous throughout the class! Many girls in the class like him because he is even more handsome than a movie star!
If only she had a big brother like this too!
She would definitely become the envy of all the girls in the class…
no, the whole school.
Unfortunately, she has a brother, but he doesn’t look as good as she does!
Last time she was thinking of giving Tina something for Sleeping Cat, and asked Tina to give her this big brother’s email address.
But Tina accepted everyone’s Sleeping Cat except hers! She was really angry about it!
“If big brother likes it, then I can give this set of stamps to Tina!”
Laura smiled at Chandler, hoping to appear cute and obedient in his eyes.
Chandler seemed uninterested after just glancing at Laura Mond, saying “Let? Why do you need to let Tina have what she wants?”
Just a simple sentence, and Laura’s expression froze instantly.
“Wrap it up,” Chandler said to the nearby staff member.
The staff was about to respond, but Laura interrupted loudly, “Since you don’t want to give it to me, then I’ll buy this set of seals.
No matter how many sets there are, I want them all! Lonny, help me buy them!”
Today, the butler of the Mond family is accompanying Laura.
Upon hearing this, Lonny stepped forward and said to the staff, “My miss wants all the sets of this stamp that are left in the venue.”
The staff looked hesitant and said, “There is only one set of this stamp, and it’s a limited edition. Many people have bought it, and it’s unlikely that we can get more from other places.”
In other words, it’s sold out.
Laura became even more determined to get this stamp, and Tina was also nervous, afraid that someone else might take it.
If someone else took it, it would be fine, but they couldn’t let Laura take it!
In Tina’s opinion, Laura always tries to cause trouble. Once during an exam, Tina kindly showed her the answer, but because she used a different method from the teacher for that question, although the answer was correct, it was different from the other students’ methods.
Only she and Laura had different answers on their exam papers, so the teacher asked them about it.
However, before Tina could say anything, Laura accused her of copying her answers.
That incident caused a rift between Tina and Laura!
Fortunately, later on, Tina explained her thought process to the teacher, and Laura couldn’t explain hers, so the truth was revealed!
But since then, Tina never looked at Laura kindly again.
“I’ll take this set of seals for my young lady,” Lonny said to the staff. “My young lady’s father is in charge of Mond Group and is an old friend of Vice President Gary from your company. We’ve already discussed this set of seals with Vice President Gary before and asked him to help us reserve it.”
Lonny is saying this right now to both assert his dominance and to strengthen his relationship with the other person.
As expected, upon hearing these words, the staff’s expression immediately changed. They turned to
Chandler and Tina and said, “I’m sorry, but this set of stamps has already been reserved by another customer.”
How could Chandler not see that the so-called pre-order was just a cover-up? “When I asked for this set of stamps before, I never heard you say it was a pre-order.”
“That’s something we forgot to mention, sorry,” said the staff member.
Laura looked smugly at Tina and even lifted her chin, which made
Tina so angry that her cheeks puffed up.
Lonny watched Chandler and Tina calmly. The Stephenson family’s White Maple Group has many businesses that often overlap with Mond Group. The two companies frequently compete for business in the entire industry.
Simply put, most of White Maple Group’s business was not in Emerald City before. Therefore, even though there were some conflicts, they were not too severe. However, in recent years,
White Maple Group has shifted many of its businesses to Emerald
City, making the competition with Mond Group even more intense.
The master is aware of the tension between Laura and Tina, but has never considered resolving it. He intends to let it be and not interfere.
And now, Laura wants to compete for the seal. Although it’s just a small thing, getting it would make
Laura happy and put pressure on the Stephenson family. Surely, the master would also approve!
However…the Mond family has never been able to figure out the background of the young man beside
Tina.
The Mond family sees the Stephenson family as their competitors and they have naturally gathered information about the people and events related to the Stephenson family.
So Lonny knows that the boy in front of him is named Chandler and has a close relationship with the Stephenson family. He has been with the Stephenson family since Tina was born.
Moreover, Chandler and Tina are very close. He even heard a rumor that Tina is Chandler’s stepdaughter, but he doesn’t know if it’s true or not.
But thinking about a family like the Stephenson family, would they really give away their only treasure to be someone else’s child bride? It seems highly unlikely!
The staff is now packing up the seal to give to Laura.
Even though Tina was angry, she could only reluctantly accept it. She hung her head low, like a defeated little animal, and pulled
Chandler away.
Chandler glanced at Tina and then looked up at Lonny. “So, if it’s pre-booked, it’s all good, right?”
“Of course!” Lonny replied.
Chandler said to the staff, “So, can you ask your Vice President Gary to come over and clarify whether this set of stamps has been reserved or not?”
When the staff heard this, they were immediately overwhelmed.
Bring Vice President Gary over? Who is this boy to summon Vice
President Gary with just one word?
Even Lonny was taken aback for a moment, but then couldn’t help but burst out laughing, his eyes full of mockery. “Young man, you really don’t know your place!” he said, and then prepared to take the seal handed to him by the staff.
“Wait a minute,” said Chandler. “I said, let’s wait for Vice President Gary to come over and tell us whether this box of seals has been reserved or not.”
“Joke, do you think just because you said Vice President Gary will come, he will actually come?” Lonny scolded, reaching out to grab the stamp.
But in the next moment, a stranger suddenly appeared and directly stopped Lonny’s hand.
“What kind of person are you?!” exclaimed Lonny in surprise.
The person didn’t speak, they just looked at Chandler.
Chandler spoke to Lonny in a calm tone, “I told you, we need Vice
President Gary from Lazy Cat Culture to come over here.” He then took out his phone and dialed a number. “This is Chandler. Can you ask Vice President Gary from Lazy Cat Culture to come to the Sleeping Cat Exhibition Hall in
Emerald City? He should be in
Emerald City right now.”
After the call ended, the person on the other end of the phone stared at their phone with a look of disbelief on their face.
Sleeping Cat Exhibition Hall? What’s that all about?!
Lonny, Laura, and the on-site staff are all looking at Chandler with surprise on their faces. However, the way they are looking at him.
makes it seem like they are looking at a fool.
Lonny said, “Young people who try to show off their wealth should also consider the appropriate occasion!”
The staff spoke to Chandler, “Sir, please do not cause trouble here. Otherwise, I will have to call security.”
Chandler lowered his head and said to Tina, “We have to wait here for a little while. If you’re bored, I can have someone accompany you to other places to stroll around.”
Tina shook her head and said, “Chandler, what if this set of stamps is really reserved for them? What will we do if we can’t buy it?”
“If you really like it, then just have them remake the stamp set,”
said Chandler, as if he was talking about something as simple as that.
