Dahlia entered the store with an air of superiority, shooting a nce at the shop assistant, Irinna Burriss.


    "Your store really needs to implement stricter customer screening, particrly with individuals like them who obviously cannot afford to make purchases. Letting them in would only degrade the standards of Vior."


    Dixie chimed in, "Exactly! What if they damage the clothes? They could never afford to pay for them."


    Mia couldn''t suppress a chuckle at their hypocrisy.


    "Considering your reputation for purchasing counterfeit goods and passing them off as authentic, perhaps it''s best for you two to refrain from patronizing this store as well. We wouldn''t want others to mistakenly assume that everything here is fake," Mia shot back.


    Mia couldn''t help but reference the previous asion when Dahlia and Dixie bought scarves for Laura, only toter discover they were counterfeit.


    Dahlia and Dixie''s demeanor grew awkward, and Dixie retorted, "I-I was misled by a friend. How was I supposed to know they would sell me counterfeit goods?"


    "Yes, my daughter is overly trusting of her friends. Besides, families like ours can afford luxury items, unlike a certain orphan who is penniless and was abandoned by their family. How could they even afford to shop here?"


    Dixie continued with a hint of pride, "Mia, do you even know that this store operates on a membership system? Only members have ess to shop here."


    Before Mia could respond, Gina, standing beside her, couldn''t contain herself any longer. "Who are you to talk about memberships? You both seem to have a fondness for buying knockoffs, so your memberships are probably fake too, aren''t they?"


    "I''m quite certain that you both carry counterfeit cards, never with the intention of making a purchase, only toter buy knockoff items."


    Gina''s words struck a nerve, evident from Dahlia and Dixie''s guilty expressions. However, they quickly fired back, "Whose fake card are we talking about here? Since you don''t have one yourself, you''re not qualified to be here."


    Dahlia nced at the familiar store attendant. "Irinna, it''s a relief you''re here. Please ensure they don''te in and disrupt our shopping experience."


    Given Irinna''s history of good rapport with Dahlia and Dixie, she immediately trusted their words.


    She turned to Mia with a trace of hostility and stated, "I''m sorry, but without a membership, you can''t shop here. Would you like to apply for one?"


    "Stop kidding around. How could they possibly afford a membership? They''re broke!"


    In response, Mia calmly retrieved a gold-embossed membership card from her bag. "Who said I don''t have a membership card?"


    Upon seeing Mia''s membership card, Irinna''s demeanor shifted suddenly, her tone bing more respectful. "Madam, would you like me to summon the manager to assist you?"


    Typically, members with cards of such caliber receive personalized attention from the store manager.


    Dahlia appeared perplexed. "You should verify her card. What if it''s a counterfeit?"


    Dixie deliberately raised her voice, "Exactly! This card looks nothing like ours. I''ve never seen a Vior membership card like this before."


    "Mia, if you''re going to fabricate something, at least choose a more convincing design. It''s evident at first nce that it''s a fake."


    Mia nced over with a smirk. "It''s understandable if you haven''t encountered this caliber of membership card before; after all, your status isn''t quite up to par!"N?velDrama.Org owns this.


    It seemed that certain individuals were quite eager to be called out.


    At that moment, the store manager, Gianna Tomlin, hurried over and respectfully stood beside Mia.


    "Ms. Bowen, my apologies for my dyed arrival. Given your status as a valued VIP customer, would you like me to clear the area for you?"
