Chapter 632: College Classmates

Who would believe that this shabbily dressed young man would really spend millions on two gifts?

They had received people who stepped into the store and pretended to be generous spenders, only to hem and haw for a long time while refusing to pay for the items the salespeople had painstakingly picked out for them. They would also escape under the pretext of going to the restroom. So they were certain that Lucas was one of those people.

Suddenly, a woman’s voice full of surprise rang in Lucas’s ears. “You… Are you Lucas Gray?”

Lucas turned his head and looked in the direction of the voice to see that the woman who called out to him was also wearing the standard uniform of the Heavenly Pavilion. Her face seemed slightly familiar to him, but he couldn’t recall who she was.

But when he saw the nameplate pinned on her chest read ‘Supervisor Kylie Reed’, he remembered who she was—a classmate from college.

However, Lucas didn’t have a deep impression of her.

When he was in college, he had to juggle work and studying all the time. Apart from attending class, he spent most of his extracurricular time working and was rarely in school.

On the other hand, Kylie seemed to be a popular figure in his major and was rather well-known in school. Even Lucas, who hadn’t cared much about campus gossip, had heard some unsavory rumors about her.

There were rumors of her being a sugar baby, getting an abortion, and so on. In short, she didn’t have a good reputation.

Apart from this, Lucas barely had any impression of her. Of course, even when they were classmates in college, they had almost never spoken to each other before, so it could be said that the two had nothing to do with each other at all.

He was actually rather surprised that Kylie could actually recognize him to be her former classmate.

“Haha, Lucas, it’s really you! Speaking of which, we seemed to be classmates in college, right? In the blink of an eye, it’s been six years since we graduated, and we haven’t seen each other for a long time! Where are you working now? You can actually afford to shop here at the Heavenly Pavilion. You must be doing pretty well, huh?”

Although Kylie was smiling, her tone made Lucas feel particularly uncomfortable, especially when she added, “I remember that your family was struggling to make ends meet, right? When we were in college, you were the only one working alongside studying, and you’d head straight to your part-time jobs of distributing flyers and so on after class and during vacations. So, what happened? Did you strike it rich?”

Before Lucas could even speak, she continued to speak like she was bragging, “I’m nothing compared to you! It’s been six years since we graduated, and I’ve only managed to become a lowly supervisor. I must be worlds apart from you, aren’t I?”

While speaking, Kylie deliberately puffed up her chest, for fear that Lucas wouldn’t notice her title printed on the nameplate on her chest.

Lucas was still a little surprised to run into his former classmate a moment ago. But now, he was full of disdain toward her and didn’t have any intention of catching up with her at all.

Of course, anyone who wasn’t blind would be able to tell from Kylie’s attitude that she was just deliberately trying to provoke Lucas and showing off in front of him.

Lucas was amused by her behavior.

They had almost never interacted with each other in college, so he was curious as to why Kylie was showing him this inexplicable hostility out of nowhere.

“I’m just running a small business to maintain a livelihood. I can’t be compared to you at all,” Lucas said indifferently and detachedly.

As he expected, a blatant look of smugness appeared on Kylie’s face as soon as she heard what he said.

“Lucas, don’t get too conceited and have your nose up in the air now that you have some money! You probably still don’t know that we sell only the finest products here in the Heavenly Pavilion, and even the most ordinary items in the hall on the first floor cost at least five thousand or so. As for the high-end items upstairs, they can easily reach hundreds of thousands and even millions!

“I suggest you… stop puffing yourself up at your own cost. Even if you want to get some gifts, you should visit other stores that offer cheaper things on Union Street!

“I’m not trying to be mean, but look at what you’re wearing. I think you’d better save your money and spend it on some decent clothing instead! It’s been several years since we graduated, and you’re still dressed like this. Even we, your former classmates, feel embarrassed for you!”

Kylie’s hostility began to get more and more obvious. And now, she was just short of pointing her finger at Lucas and ridiculing him for being a penniless loser and telling him to get lost from the Heavenly Pavilion.

Lucas was somewhat amused and bewildered.

He had barely even spoken a word to her in his four years of college. Why would she do this?

He couldn’t be bothered with someone like Kylie and was about to casually say a few perfunctory words to her to get her to leave. But at this moment, two more people came into the store.

It was a man and a woman in their mid-twenties who seemed to be a couple. They were both decked out in luxury designer wear. The man was clad in a sharp Versace suit with an expensive Vacheron Constantin watch on his hand, and the woman was wearing the latest Chanel dress and holding a Givenchy lambskin clutch in her hand while strutting in on one of the latest pairs of shoes from Prada. They seemed affluent.

As soon as the salespeople saw the couple, their eyes immediately lit up, and they were eager to receive them. But when they saw Kylie, they were instantly smart enough to stop in their tracks.

Although these two distinguished customers were indeed wealthy, and the salespeople would be able to get quite a considerable commission by selling some items to them, Kylie was their supervisor, so it was impossible that they’d get such a good opportunity.

If they dared to snatch Kylie’s potential clients insensitively, not only would they not get any commission, but she might even find a random excuse to dock their salary. Something like this had happened before, and the salespeople were long familiar with her overbearing tyranny.

With a bizarre triumphant smile on her face, Kylie mocked with contempt, “Lucas, if you want to continue to shop in the Heavenly Pavilion, then feel free to do so. But the items in this store don’t come cheap. You must be careful not to touch them! Otherwise, I’m afraid you won’t be able to afford to pay for one even if you exhaust all your money.”

Then she took two steps toward the door. Seemingly recalling something, she ordered Jane, the salesperson who was serving Lucas, “Jane, keep a close eye on the items in the store. If anything gets dropped, damaged, or stolen, I’ll hold you accountable!”

After saying this aggressively, Kylie turned around and walked toward the couple dressed in designer clothing from head to toe. With a fawning and deferential smile on her face, she greeted the two of them affectionately.

Upon seeing this scene, the other salespeople in the Heavenly Pavilion all looked at Lucas and Jane gloatingly.
