Chapter 139
“Ms. Maddie, the items you previously purchased from our store haven’t been paid for yet. I’ve brought the bill to you. Would you like to pay with cash or card?”
The salesperson smiled broadly, holding a card reader in one hand and a cash counter in the other.
Maddie looked wary. “Don’t think you can fool me just because I come from the countryside. We clearly paid just now. Why should we pay again?”
“You didn’t pay earlier,” said the salesperson with a smile as bright as spring. “You only filled out an IOU, which clearly stated that you’d send the money after retuming home. To save you the trip. I’ve personally come to collect. The total is thirty thousand.”
As she spoke, the salesperson pulled out a stack of bills from her bag, clearly labeled with Maddie’s name.
Maddie was stunned. She had indeed signed her name on the document, but how was she to know it was an IOU.
She turned sharply towards Flora, realizing she had been tricked.
It was this bitch who had gotten her nephew into trouble with the police, and now she was here to harm her.
“Bitch! Did you do this?” She glared at Flora, her anger nearly bursting into flames.
Flora smiled nonchalantly, calm and composed, “If you buy something, naturally, you have to pay for it. I never said I would cover your bill.
Maddie’s face turned gloomy. Thirty thousand that would drain even her life savings.
In a panic, she started stripping off her clothes, leaving only a tank top and shorts, and began taking off various pieces of jewelry around her neck and wrists to hand to the salesperson. Take it all back! I don’t want it anymore! It’s all still new.”
The salesperson’s expression cooled. “Once items are sold from our store, they cannot be returned, especially since you’ve cut off the tags. If you don’t pay, I have no choice but to involve the legal authorities and proceed according to the law to have you pay.” This scared Maddie, but she couldn’t bear to part with her life savings. She turned her fury towards Flora. “It’s all because of you, you bitch! Hans, beat this bitch up. She’s the reason we’re in this mess.”
Maddie and Hans, both furious, charged at Flora, wishing they could tear her apart.
The salesperson, fearing for Flora’s safety, rushed forward to protect her, but Flora caught her wrist, signaling her to stop.
The salesperson only felt a gust of wind pass by her side. She didn’t even s Maddie and Hans both ended up on the ground.

Flora stood before her, arms crossed, looking indifferent as if she wasn’t the one who had just acted. “Ow, my leg’s gonna break” Maddie screamed, holding her leg. “My leg is broken! I’m going to sue

Hans, eyes darting shrewdly, threw himself onto Maddie. “Mom! What’s wrong with your leg? Our whole family depends on you. If your leg is broken, how are we supposed to live!”
Flora saw through their act immediately. They were just trying to get compensation from her.
A cold smile appeared on her lips, and her dark eyes narrowed slightly. Flora spoke slowly, each word deliberate, “If you want to go to
the police, fine. If your leg is truly broken, I’ll pay a sum. But if there’s nothing wrong with your leg, then you and Aaron are just trying to extort money, and I have the means to have you locked up, ensuring you never get back on your feet”
Maddie was frightened by Flora’s chilling tone, her heart skipping
