Married First, Loved Later : A Flash Marriage with My Ex's 'Uncle' novel Chapter 67

Chapter 67: How Does She Have It?

Manager Wilson suddenly sensed something was wrong, and his voice began to stammer. "N-no, that’s not it! This woman claims she has a platinum card, but we’ve never seen one. She must be a fraud..."

"Idiot!"

President Taylor strode quickly to Selina, catching sight of the card in her hand and immediately feeling lightheaded.

A platinum card like this—there were only two in the entire world! One belonged to Logan, the head of the Reid Group, and the other had been gifted years ago by the owner to an esteemed guest.

Regardless of which card this was, the woman before him was someone he absolutely could not afford to offend.

President Taylor’s legs trembled as he spoke with a tone full of reverence and appeasement. "Miss, may I have the honor of knowing your last name?"

The surrounding crowd was stunned into silence, watching as President Taylor bowed and scraped before Selina. Words escaped them.

Jillian was on the verge of losing her mind. Could this be a mistake? How could Selina possibly be a platinum cardholder?!

Selina glanced at Jillian and suddenly smiled faintly. "No need for formalities. My last name is Clark."

"Clark?" President Taylor immediately understood the connection between Selina and Natalia, internally cursing Manager Wilson’s lack of discernment. He personally brewed a cup of coffee for Selina, wiping the sweat from his brow as he asked, "Miss Clark, is there anything I can assist you with?"

The arrival of a platinum cardholder at their mall was a badge of honor! If need be, President Taylor was prepared to pay out of his own pocket to ensure she stayed.

Selina, however, looked disinterested.

"There’s really nothing to assist with," she said with a faint tone. "I was interested in a pair of couple’s watches, but Mrs. Carter here made it clear that if Manager Wilson dared sell them to me, it would mean offending the Carter family. Manager Wilson was just about to kick me out."

"Just about to kick me out..."

President Taylor was drenched in sweat, shuddering as he exclaimed, "Miss Clark! You are our esteemed guest, and no one has the right to drive you away! May I ask which watches caught your eye? I’ll personally buy them for you as an apology!"

Selina’s expression remained indifferent.

Panicked, President Taylor shot a glare at Manager Wilson, yelling, "Why aren’t you packaging up the watches Miss Clark wanted?!"

Jillian, bewildered by President Taylor’s attitude, stammered, "President Taylor, you must be mistaken! Selina is just some bumpkin. The watch she picked out only costs 300,000. That platinum card must be fake!"

"Silence!" President Taylor snapped, frowning in disgust. "The Carter family claims to be a prestigious lineage of over a century, yet it married someone as unreasonable as you? Do you think I don’t know if a platinum card is genuine?"

For the first time, Jillian was publicly scolded without mercy. Humiliated and furious, she shrieked, "Natalia doesn’t even have a platinum card! How could that wretch possibly have one? This has to be a mistake!"

If Selina had a platinum card and outshone Natalia, it would prove that Ryan made the wrong choice—and Jillian couldn’t allow that to happen.

Natalia’s face turned ashen as she bit her lip, tears streaming pitifully down her face.

Selina smirked at the two women, her tone lazy and nonchalant. "President Taylor, as you can see, it’s not that I don’t want to stay. It’s just that Mrs. Carter clearly doesn’t welcome me."

"Besides, the Carter family is a valued customer of this store. If Manager Wilson looks down on me, that’s perfectly reasonable." _{freewēbnoveℓ.com}

"It’s just a watch. I can buy one anywhere. I won’t impose further."

With that, Selina turned and headed toward the exit.

President Taylor’s face darkened instantly as he turned a murderous glare toward Jillian.

"I hereby announce that the Carter family is permanently banned from this mall! No member of the Carter family will be allowed to step foot here again! Mrs. Carter, kindly return the watches you selected."

"And as for you, Manager Wilson! You dared to grovel before wealth while driving away a true VIP. You can leave along with the Carter family!"

Jillian’s eyes widened as her mind echoed with a deafening realization.

Carter Family has been blacklisted... Carter Family has been blacklisted...!
