Domineering Mr. CEO and His Impudent Love

The car soon halted outside Windstead Square with two bodyguards trailing behind Lily Gray.

As soon as they approached the entrance, a tall, slim woman in professional attire quickly came out to greet them. She looked very efficient and capable.

“Mrs. Lucas, hello. My name is Anya, the Deputy CEO of Windstead Square. Here is my business card. I’m very pleased to be able to serve you today.”

Lily just wanted to find an experienced salesperson to accompany her, but to her surprise, they sent a deputy CEO to go shopping with her instead.

She accepted the business card with an apologetic smile, “I’m sorry for taking up your working hours to accompany me for shopping.”

“Not at all, it’s my honor.”

Despite her appearance of being efficient and reserved, Deputy CEO Anya’s attitude was extremely serious and sincere.

After accompanying Lily for a while, she was neither overly flattering nor showed any sign of reluctance. Soon, they were getting along quite well.

They passed by a jewelry store that Lily used to visit often with Mrs. Gray.

She noticed people coming and going at the entrance, seemingly packing and moving

Unable to resist, she asked: “Has this store been here for a long time? Their business seems to have been good, why are they suddenly moving out?”

Anya glanced over, recognized it as the Williams family’s store, and lowered her voice, “I heard they offended Mr. Wellington for some reason. I don’t know why, but the Williams family has been in trouble these past few days, closing several stores in A City.”

Dylan Wellington?

Lily raised her eyebrows in surprise. It hadn’t occurred to her that Dylan could be so powerful.

It seemed that Dylan’s ability to take charge of the mighty Wellington family was not only due to his heritage. He himself was also truly capable.

“Mrs. Lucas, there’s a jewelry brand up ahead that specifically designs for young people. If you want to give jewelry to friends under thirty, you can check out that brand.”

Anya pointed to a brand not too far away and recommended it.

Lily thought about it. Indeed, it would be better to give Ella Reed a piece of jewelry rather than something else.

“Alright, let’s go check that store.”

Meanwhile, in the VIP lounge of that jewelry store, Rowena Gray was flipping through an album that the store manager had brought in, with Milly Gray by her side.

“Miss Gray, these pieces of jewelry are our company’s latest season designs, especially suitable for young girls like Miss Gray. Take a look… these pearl and white diamonds designed earrings, necklaces are perfect to match a dress. Also, this pink diamond set is very suitable for Miss Gray’s youthful charm.”

Rowena and Milly were old customers here.

Easy to fool, and wealthy, although they were picky and a bit troublesome, they loved flattery the most.

Such customers were to the salesperson’s liking, as earning their money merely required a little bit of flattery.

“Hmm, these two sets are not bad, have them brought over for Milly to try.”

“Sure, please wait a moment, I will personally go and bring them out.”

The store manager happily retreated, leaving only Rowena and Milly in the VIP lounge.

Seeing nobody was around, Milly promptly leaned close to Rowena and lowered her voice: “Mother… we don’t have much money now, why are we still coming here to buy jewelry? That jewelry set just now, it would cost at least several million, plus the dress you had made for me before…”

“Silly girl, what do you know!” Rowena glanced at her daughter dismissively, “This is called investment… if you want to get a wealthy husband, you have to invest a bit first, how else would you earn it back?”

[Author’s Note] Here’s the update! The jewelry store that Mr. Wellington is dealing with is the same one run by the wealthy heirs of the Williams family who had drugged Skye earlier.
