Supreme Mars novel Chapter 178

Leo and Lydia stopped, watching this in astonishment.

Soon, Leo realized what was happening.

The shop assistant did say that dress was not for sale, but now she sold it to other people. In addition, this was Leo’s first date with Lydia. How could he bear this humiliation?

Perceiving Leo’s anger, Lydia unexpectedly held his hand.

Leo immediately calmed down and looked back at Lydia in amazement, “Lydia?”

“Let it go. It’s just a clothes.” Lydia looked so peaceful as if she was not disturbed by this issue at all.

Leo suddenly felt respectful to her.

People who are successful are all open-minded.

Lydia didn’t want to fight with the woman over a dress. Was Lydia afraid of her?

No, she was not.

That was because Lydia was generous.

There are only a few people who can be truly open-minded in the world.

Lydia made it clear that she gave up the skirt. But Leo smiled, “You are right. But the thing that my wife likes was taken away by others. As a man, I have to do something.”

When Leo said that, he became determined, “I said I would give you everything you want by all means.” Then he strided into the shop.

Moved by Leo, Lydia hesitated for a fraction of a second and followed him.

By now this skirt had been wrapped, waiting for the payment.

Seeing Leo and Lydia coming back, the shop assistant became embarrassed and said, “Why do you return, Sir and Madam?”

Leo glanced at her and said coolly, “You really have no idea?”

The shop assistant was speechless. Looking at that off-white dress, Leo said, “I remember that you said it was ‘not for sale’, right?”

The shop assistant was increasingly embarrassed. She was not lying as this skirt was really not for sale. But she couldn’t defy the lover of the Stewart family, Alexis.

Although Alexis’s family was just a branch of the Stewards, she was still a part of them. So the shop assistant had to treat her reverentially.

Thinking of this, the shop assistant said reluctantly with her head down, “I’m so sorry that I lied to you. But I hope you can forgive me that we can’t sell this one to you.”

“What would you do if we don’t want to forgive you?” Leo interrupted her and said tonelessly.

The shop assistant added, teeth clenched, “We have many other new clothes came out this year. I can introduce each of them for you and give you a discount. Sorry again…”

An idea struck Leo as he heard the assistant’s confession, and he said coolly, “Give us a reason why you sold the skirt to that woman rather than us? We came here earlier than her.”

“Isn’t that obvious?” Alexis broke in and sneered, “They certainly worried that you couldn’t afford it. This expensive dress only matches beautiful woman like me.”

Seeing her arrogance, Leo burst into a laugh.

The woman got mad at once, just like a cat whose tail was stamped, saying, “What are you laughing at?”

Leo mocked at her as if he had heard the most funny joke in the world, “It’s important to be self-aware. Clearly, you are not.”

“What do you mean?!” said Alexis more angrily.

Leo looked her over, flatly saying, “Your face is filled with hyaluronic acid. How dare you compare yourself with my wife?”

Leo gently put his arm around Lydia after finishing his words.

Hearing the word “wife”, Lydia was impressed and blushed.

What Leo had said stirred up the woman’s anger. She said, “Whose face is filled with hyaluronic acid?”

She was boiling with rage and even wanted to scratch Leo’s face.

She indeed had had plastic surgeries. But she didn’t want anybody speak of it, which made her embarrassed.

“Darling, you see, he is jealous of my beauty and insults me.” Alexis could only ask her man, Chester Stewart, for help because she was not as good at quarreling as Leo.

However, the man didn’t respond to her, gazing at Lydia’s face.

Seeing this, Alexis got more angry, saying, “You think she is more beautiful than me, huh?”

When Chester got sober, he frowned deeply at once.

In his view, compared with Lydia, the woman in his arm was so annoying and made him feel shameful.

“We are in public. Don’t talk so loudly. Shut up!” Chester snapped at her.

Then he looked at Lydia and politely said with a smile, “Relax, lady. I’m sorry that my wife has a bad temper. The manager of this shop is my friend. There’s no denying that the stuff is not considerate enough, but could you please give up this dress? You can choose other clothes whatever you like. I’ll pay the bill and let’s make friends!”

Alexis was at once stunned given that her husband didn’t help her and even bought clothes for another woman.

She calmed down soon and glanced at Lydia resentfully, saying to Leo, “Keep an eye on your wife when you are not at home, or she may flirt with other men and cheat on you.”

Lydia was a bit amazed by Alexis’s abrupt insults. But she calmed down and coldly stared at her, “Are you talking about me?”

“Of course!” Alexis said arrogantly, “If you didn’t seduce my husband, how could him speak for you? But it doesn’t matter. Chester is from the Stewart family. It’s your honor that he likes you. But you should bear in mind that my status is still higher than yours.”

Alexis continued abusing Lydia as if she was venting her anger aroused by Leo.

Lydia’s eyes got cold. She did can overlook this annoying woman, but it didn’t mean that she could be insulted.

Leo scowled at Alexis and strided towards her.

Suddenly, a hand grasped him.

Leo looked back at Lydia in astonishment.

Lydia shook her head and smiled, “Man shouldn’t beat woman.”

For a moment, Leo was confused and hesitated, but he finally curbed his anger.

Seeing this, Alexis thought that Leo didn’t dare beat her. So she became more aggressively, “That’s right. Just give this dress to me. If Chester is in a good mood, he will have sex with you. Your appearance barely matches Chester…”

However, hardly had Alexis finished her words when she was slapped in her face.

Five slim finger prints on face, Alexis fell to the ground .

The shop was silent. All of the people were inquiringly looking at Lydia.

Leo was also shocked, ‘How could she beat this woman?’

Looking down at Alexis, Lydia sneeringly said, “So, it’s better that woman beat woman.”
