Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest)

Chapter 289

When Xyla Quest first started her company, the company’s high-level executives knew she personally did not like too much attention. Hence, nobody dared talk about her affairs to outsiders. It was a practice carried forward until today.

It had become the norm in the company that nobody would talk about her, which explained why it was normal for artists in the company not to know who she was.

After comparing the two women’s outfits, the sales assistant smiled at the beautiful woman who wore a sable fur coat. “Alright, I will get this wrapped up for you right away,” the sales assistant said.

“Miss, I saw this outfit first, alright?” Xyla immediately frowned. Content rights belong to NôvelDrama.Org.

The sales assistant smiled politely. “Miss, this is a design from the young and most famous international designer, Vivian, who collaborated with Chanel to release it.”

“So?” Xyla asked.

“So, you probably can’t afford it. You might not even know who Vivian is, do you? She’s an extremely talented designer. Her net worth is even higher than the chief designer in Chanel. But she did not sign a contract with any brands. Instead, she would only occasionally collaborate with major international brands for one or two designs when she wanted to. Usually, there would only be a single unit released for each design. Do you know what that means? Scarcity comes with a bigger price tag. Any outfit with Vivian’s label on it would be hundreds of times more expensive. Even so, people would still frantically go after these outfits. This outfit is a prime example, and would cost at least eight hundred thousand dollars,” Faye White said snobbishly.

Based on how Xyla was dressed in regular, inexpensive clothes, Faye thought she looked like a student who could not possibly afford outfits like the one she was referring to.

“Miss, why don’t you take a look at our other designs in the store?” The sales assistant said with a forced smile as she looked at Xyla.

Although the sales assistant seemed polite, there was a distant look in her eyes, which revealed that she, too, looked down on Xyla.

Xyla glanced at the sales assistant before pointing at another outfit on one of the mannequins. “Is this a design from a collaboration between Vivian and Chanel? It looks different from the rest of the designs in your store.”

The outfit Xyla pointed at was a formal, white outfit with smooth lines and a body-hugging design. There were golden lines engraved on its collar, making it seem low-key yet grand.

“Yes, Miss. This outfit is even more expensive. It costs 1.2 million dollars,” the sales assistant said.

In other words, the sales assistant was pointing out that Xyla could not afford it. Xyla immediately caught the hint.

“Why are you wasting time talking to her? Hurry up and get my outfit wrapped up. Otherwise, someone else might snatch it,” Faye said with her chin lifted and arms crossed in front of her chest. She seemed like a proud peacock.

When the sales assistant saw how straightforward Faye was, she immediately smiled. “Alright, Miss. I’ll get it wrapped up for you right away.”

“You can’t even afford it. Why did you ask about it? Don’t you feel embarrassed?” Faye glared at Xyla coldly.

As Xyla looked at Faye, she could not help but wonder why X Entertainment would sign an artist like her.

With Faye’s personality, competitors would pick on her flaws once she became famous enough.

Although Xyla was simmering with anger, she did not show it. Instead, Xyla looked gently at the sales assistant in front of them. “Miss, get these two outfits from Vivian and Chanel wrapped up for me. I saw them first. Thanks,” Xyla said.

Even if Xyla was upset, she maintained her composure and politeness.

The sales assistant was stunned momentarily, and so was Faye, who had a look of disbelief on her face.

“Do you even have money for those? Stop messing around,” Faye uttered annoyedly.

Xyla tossed a black card with unlimited credit to the sales assistant. “Can I get the bill, please?”

When Faye saw the card, she was dumbfounded. That was a black card, which was limited in numbers worldwide. It could not be bought with money.

Anyone who possessed it was either a rich or of aristocratic status.
