Chapter 24 - LIE CHANGLE WAS UTTERLY HUMILATED

Lie Changle was stupefied. How could this stupid head manager dare to apologise to her cousin instead of her?

"I am the one who deserves the apology, not her," She thought.

"How about you learn to teach your staff on how to distinguish between low class socialites and a super high class socialites," Lie Ruge said coldly.

Everyone present at the scene of the commotion was awestruck. They gossiped yet again, although in low tones this time around.

"OMG! So this is the legendary world's number one beauty. No wonder I thought she looked familiar," one of the socialites exclaim in surprise.

"This is so unbelievable," another lady shouted.

"How can this be?"

"Yeah, my husband has tried so many times to book an appointment with her, but it was all to no avail,"

"She is known for being very secretive and she particularly hates public attention,"

"I can see why we could not identify her identity,"

"It is impossible to get in contact with her,"

"She became so successful within the period of three years,"

"Yeah, I remember three years ago, there were controversies whether a young lady of her age will be able to handle the position of the CEO of the whole Empire Corporation, but look at where she is now. The sky is her limit at the moment?"

"I heard that her uncle and aunts were so against her becoming the CEO,"

"I now realise why she can bid without thinking twice about the amount"

"Isn't Miss Changle her cousin, so why is she humiliating the CEO in public?"

"I bet she does not know her place, she is just a proud little brat who is seeking for attention, I guess".

All the socialites talked all at once. It was impossible to distinguish the one who was speaking.

One socialite whom Lie Changle once publicly humiliated walked up to them. She wasn't satisfied with the humiliation has gone through.

"Wow! CEO Lie, you look so exquisite. Do you know that you are my idol? I have dreamed of meeting for the past three years now," The lady said lady smiling at Lie Ruge while giving Changle a scornful look.

"Really? That is so nice of you," Xiao Bai who knew that Lie Ruge will not respond replied flashing the lady a bright smile. The lady turned to face Changle.

"Miss Lie, how could you be so heartless as to humiliate CEO Lie? In terms of wealth, beauty, and status you are nothing compare to her, so what gives you the guts to think you can humiliate her in the presence of everyone? Don't you know that without CEO Lie you, and your entire family are nothing?" The lady snarled at her with boldness. After being humiliated the last time, she was not afraid of Changle anymore.

"Did you just say I am nothing? And that I am inferior to her?" Lie Changle asked in disbelief, pointing her index finger at the quiet Lie Ruge. Xiao Bai smiled happily when she saw the expression of anger and disbelief on Changle's face.

"Don't tell me you didn't realise this before I took it upon myself to tell you?" The lady asked disgustedly. "Everyone thinks you are inferior to CEO Lie in everything or am I not right?" The lady asked the onlookers. Lie Changle had the shock of her life when none of the socialites spoke up for her. She walked closer to the lady and made to slap her, but Lie Ruge's words stopped her in her track.

"Don't you dare," Lie Ruge stated coldly. The Manager and the lady could not help but shiver when they heard the chillness of her voice. The Manager spoke up after overcoming his fear a bit.

"Miss Lie, it is my fault for not educating my staff well but from now on I will be in charge of accompanying you to purchase anything you desire to purchase," Mr Tang said, trying his best to persuade this high profile customer. He was shivering within. If Miss Lie makes an issue out of the event that took place today, he will not only get sacked, but the mall might also cease to exist.

Xiao Bai felt bad for the poor head manager so she decided to assist him, "We just hope this incident never repeats itself and you can do whatever you want to your sales representative, we won't interfere".

Xiao Bai was the only person who knows her best friend temperament the best. She knew that her friend might withdraw all her shares from the mall, and this will spell the doom of this great mall. Her best friend will never make an issue out of the case since she had interfered.

Lie Changle was treated as though she was invisible. Anger was written over her face as she glares dagger at them.

"Miss Lie, I will personally wrap the two necklaces for you and you don't have to pay for it," Mr Tang said humbly.

"Forget about your kind gesture, just wrap the damn necklaces and take the card," Lie Ruge stated coldly.

"I said the necklace is mine," Lie Changle shouted in annoyance.

Through her irrationality, all the socialites glare at her with contempt.

"Miss Lie Changle please don't put me in a tight position. These two necklaces has already being booked by CEO Lie six months ago so these necklaces were never yours to take," Mr Tang stated harshly. He was getting annoyed with her.

"That is impossible. These necklaces have just being launched yesterday so how could you say it has already being booked six months ago," She said in disbelief.

Mr Tang ignored her and hurriedly wrap the two necklaces for CEO Lie. Lie Changle gritted her teeth in anger, her long nails digging into her skin.

Lie Ruge and Xiao Bai stroll out of the mall elegantly with smiles on their faces, not giving a damn about Lie Changle, who was fuming profusely.
