Will you marry me, My Ex-Wife (Luna and Joshua) novel Chapter 753

Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy chapter 753

“Aunty, it was all just an accident. Even if your clothes are expensive, there’s no need for us to pay the full price in compensation, is there?“

Although Zayne was not the oldest among the four, he was the calmest and most reserved one. He continued to persuade the woman, “It’s not a large spill either, so the clothes will still be wearable after dry-cleaning it. The average dry cleaner in Banyan City charges about eighty to a hundred dollars, so why not let my friend give you two hundred dollars in compensation for your dry-cleaning fees? How does that sound?“

Shannon could not help feeling stunned when she saw the way Zayne smiled courteously at the woman. This young man, who wore glasses and spent most of his time immersed in his work, was surprisingly calm and gentle when dealing with difficult people.

“Two hundred dollars for my dry-cleaning? “ The woman, alas, was still dissatisfied with Zayne’s offer. “What difference do two hundred dollars make? Who do you think I am?“ She gave all four of them a once-over.

“Tsk, tsk. “ She snorted in indignation and looked at them with an expression of contempt. “All four of you are well-dressed and seem to be well-off. How can you not be able to pay fifty thousand dollars in compensation?“

This middle-aged woman had a loud voice, so naturally, everyone else in the cafeteria looked over in their direction. Seeing that she had garnered the crowd’s attention, the woman continued triumphantly, “You bumped into me and ruined my fifty thousand dollars dress, but now you refuse to pay for the damage… If you’re poor, don’t be so haughty! You guys look well-dressed, but I bet you can’t pay for my dress even with all four of you combined.

“What a pity. I’m not a successful businesswoman at all. I’m just a maid who looks after Ms. Blake and takes care of her, yet I earn more than you. What a joke! “

Shannon’s expression darkened as soon as she heard this. Even Zayne, who usually maintained his cool even in tough situations, looked displeased.

This was just a small matter, but why was this woman trying to blow everything out of proportion and look down on them?

Therefore, this dress was the only layer she had on. If she took off the dress in public…

As soon as she thought of this, the woman pointed at Samson and barked, ”How dare you suggest this, young man? You’re young, so why don’t you spend your time on something more meaningful than harassing women like me? You dirtbag! ”

Luna furrowed her brows. As much as she wanted to agree with Samson, she still found his words disrespectful. Even though the woman was hostile and difficult, she was still an elder. Samson’s suggestion was disrespectful and even bordered on harassment.

Luna pulled Samson behind her and said, ”Don’ t talk so much nonsense.”

With that, she lifted her head to stare at the woman before her. ”Even though my friend was harsh just now, please don’t misinterpret his intentions —he was just spouting facts. You told us this dress you’re wearing is worth fifty thousand dollars. Now that you want us to pay the full price in compensation, it’s equivalent to buying it entirely. What if we compensated you, and you got the dress cleaned after receiving the money? That doesn’t seem fair, does it?”
