My Dreamy Old Husband novel Chapter 32

Sophia shrugged her shoulders helplessly. “Since you are not going to believe anything I say, let’s just watch the security camera recordings.”

The onlookers were boisterous. “That’s right. Let’s watch the security recordings! It will be clear who was the one making trouble here!”

“Let’s watch the security recordings!”

It had been many years since someone caused a scene in Audistin. It wasn’t easy for them to bump into one, so they needed to get to the bottom of this!

Generally, there would be a screen in the lobby of the gym, where the videos of Victoria’s Secret fashion show would be constantly playing to encourage their members to lose weight. Currently, on the few 50-inch plasma televisions in the lobby, the videos of the Victoria’s Secret fashion shows were temporarily replaced by the security recordings of the lobby two hours ago so that everyone in the lobby could watch them clearly.

Mrs. Harper still thought that she was in the right as she coldly snorted. “You vixen, your true colors will soon be revealed!”

The recordings started, and Sophia appeared on the screen. She jogged, did warm up, did some stretching using the equipment, and talked to a part-timer. Everything seemed perfectly normal.

Later, Kayla and Xyla appeared. They then had a disagreement with Sophia, and Kayla poured the juice on the floor, so both of them naturally had a quarrel. Their quarrel was clearly recorded by the security cameras.

“Sophia, didn’t you hear me? I want you to clean the floor!”

“I’m not cleaning it!”

“My apologies. Our service was not good enough. We will immediately clean up the water marks on the floor. However, Miss Edwards over here is also our member; she is not our part-timer.”

“If she still appears here after this, I’ll never come to Audistin ever again; even my friends and family won’t come here as well. You guys had better watch out.”

At this point, everything was clear.

As expected, it was Kayla who was seeking trouble by intentionally making things difficult for another member. After she was advised to not continue doing so, she even threatened the gym manager and stated that she would cancel the memberships of the entire Harper Family.

That’s impressive. There really is someone foolish enough to threaten Audistin by stating that they would cancel the memberships of their entire family.

It was common for wealthy customers to oppress a store, but it was usually the other way round for Audistin.

After the recordings ended, Mr. Wesley switched off the security recordings. There was a dead silence in the lobby.

It was obvious that the few people from the Harper Family were pulling a long face. Richard had never expected that this incident would turn out this way. Kayla had always been arrogant at home, but it was unexpected that she could be so immature and unthoughtful to have the courage to mess with Audistin.

Nevertheless, though the solid proof was right in front of her eyes, Kayla was still unembarrassed; she even shamelessly reprimanded Sophia before the crowd, “I merely spilled a bottle of juice by accident. It was obvious that it was this woman who was seeking trouble. I don’t care. It was all this woman’s fault!”

Mrs. Harper jeered as well, “This b*tch must have had some evil intentions. It’s impossible that Kayla is such an unreasonable person. It’s unknown where this woman came from, so she must be here to get herself a rich man. We, the Harpers, have been customers of Audistin for many years, and all our family members have premium memberships. If you are really going to give up on important customers like us for this b*tch, it would be a great loss for Audistin!”

Richard agreed to his mother’s words as well. The reason that this incident had happened was obviously because of Sophia, who was venting her anger on them due to the past incident. Anyway, an apology would suffice for the little mistake that Kayla did. For the sake of their business, Audistin should know that Sophia’s background was incomparable to a wealthy family like the Harpers, so they should know whom to side with.

However, Mr. Wesley seemed to not have any sense of business as he made it obvious that he was siding with Sophia. He continued to wear a calm expression and smile while saying, “I’m sorry. The cancellation of your memberships was under your request. Once they are cancelled, we really can’t help you to regain your memberships.”

Hearing that, Mrs. Harper blew up on the spot. She pointed at Mr. Wesley and scolded, “You really know nothing about business. Ask your boss to come out. We want to see your boss!”

This Mr. Wesley definitely has a relationship with Sophia; of course he would help her!

Mr. Wesley smiled. “I’m so sorry, Mrs. Harper. Our boss is not around.”

It was a tactful explanation by saying that his boss was not around. To be frank, the Harper Family was not qualified to even meet their boss.

In fact, even Mr. Wesley himself was not qualified to meet the boss of Audistin. All he knew was that the boss of Audistin was a mysterious person, and nobody knew his real identity.

Mrs. Harper sneered, “Your boss is not around? I think you, an insignificant manager, are trying to hide this matter from your boss and fool us. Who gave an insignificant manager like you the authority to reject an important customer? We are talking about a business worth over 10 million! Do you have any say in this?”

Richard chimed in friendly as well, “Wesley, this is not something you can decide by yourself. It’s better that you ask your boss to come out.”

Just when Mr. Wesley was about to say something, a person appeared from behind the crowd, who was watching the commotion. “What’s going on?”

The person who came dressed up in a way which formed a stark contrast with the charming men and women in the lobby. He was wearing a bespoke fitting tunic suit, which was emanating an aura of the olden days. The suit accentuated the sense of chic and maturity with his 6-foot slender figure.

“Master Levine!” Upon seeing Daniel, Mrs. Harper and Richard’s spiteful expression instantly changed—they now looked intrigued.

Daniel’s reputation among the circle of wealthy people in the Bayside City was well-known to everyone. They would all invite him for ribbon-cutting ceremonies and to check out their feng shui when they had any new property for sale, opening of shopping malls, or commencement of constructions.

The rich people were obsessed with metaphysics. As the Bayside City’s Metaphysics Grandmaster, his existence was God-like to the rich and wealthy!

Daniel was also one of the shareholders of Audistin. Rumors had it that he owned quite a large portion of Audistin’s shares, so he could be found in the Audistin’s teahouse, which was right next to the gym, all year round. They didn’t expect that Daniel would appear instead of the owner.

Mrs. Harper instantly became respectful in front of Daniel. She greeted him in an overly polite and humble manner, “Master Levine, how are you doing? We happened to have gotten hold of a new piece of land. All the applications have been approved, and we’re just waiting for the commencement of construction next year. I wonder when you will be free to check out the feng shui—”

“I’m sorry. I’m fully booked.” He waved his hand and adamantly rejected her request.

Mrs. Harper’s smile was frozen on her face. Her lips parted, but she didn’t know how to continue the conversation.

Daniel asked Mr. Wesley directly, “What’s going on?”

Mr. Wesley briefly explained the whole situation.

Mrs. Harper and Kayla seemed to think that it would be a good idea to make a complaint at him since he had a greater authority than the manager.

Therefore, Mrs. Harper started complaining, “Master Levine, I heard that you are a shareholder of Audistin. You need to handle this incident. This b*tch and the manager teamed up to bully the members, and he even took the liberty to cancel all the memberships of the Harper Family!”

Kayla jeered as well while pretending to be pitiful, “There must be something fishy with this manager. Perhaps he is a spy of a competitor with the intention to ruin Audistin’s reputation!”

Daniel didn’t say anything at first; he seemed to have sunk into deep thoughts for a moment.

Everyone looked at him. As Audistin’s boss didn’t show up, Daniel was apparently the person-in-charge here.

He thought for about a minute, and the lobby fell into pin-drop silent for a minute too.

In the end, he looked at Sophia and asked, “Do you think that this was caused by the Harper Family making trouble, or Mr. Wesley making a rash decision and breaking the rules?”

He is actually asking the opinion of that young lady?

The Harper Family had never thought that Daniel would actually ask the opinion of a young lady about a matter that involved 10 million.
