Chapter 89: A Pretty Dress
Hazel bit her lip. Karla was deliberately showing off in front of her. This kind of behavior was really naive.
"Karla!" Ivan's voice contained a bit of anger and reprimanded.
"Ivan, did I say something wrong?" Karla looked at him like she was being mistreated. "We are in a relationship. Both of us have already discussed an engagement, and your parents like me so much. My uncle also appreciates you. You don’t want to do anything that makes them upset, right?”
Ivan’s face became ashen but, in the end, he just lowered his eyes.
Hazel sighed, realizing that Ivan was not with Karla voluntarily but to please their parents and professor. Sacrificing his own happiness was the price he needed to pay.
Karla looked at the regret in his eyes, but she was unwilling to give up. Karla said proudly, "Hazel, I heard that you are good friends with Ivan. Why don't you bless us? But ah, Ivan's parents don't like your type very much."
Hazel was uninterested, she was just hoping that they would leave quickly to try on the dress.
"Karla!" Ivan pulled his long face.
"Ivan, how could you have shouted at me?" Karla looked at him. "When you are in front of your uncle and aunt, you are not like this."
Ivan opened his mouth but could not endure saying anything again.
Karla proudly looked at Hazel, but it was clear that Hazel was looking at the clothes in front of her and not at her and Ivan. This made Karla extremely annoyed.
"This dress is pretty," Karla walked over to Hazel’s side and turned back to say, “Ivan, you will buy it for me.”
Hazel raised her eyebrows unhappily. Karla did not look at any clothes since she had walked in, it was obvious she just wanted to cause trouble.
"Sorry, this is a dress that I wanted to buy." Hazel opened her mouth and said.
"Oh? Well, you should let me have it." Karla said proudly.
"Karla, don't go too far!" Ivan pulled her arm with annoyance.
"Ivan, you forgot that you promised my uncle that no matter what I want, you will buy it for me, now why will you not do this?" Karla once again put pressure on him, she must get the dress that Hazel liked!
"...If you want, I will take you to another place to buy." Ivan became silent for a moment and finally compromised.
"I just want this one!" Karla said, throwing a temper tantrum.
Hazel opened her mouth and said, "Sorry, I have no intention of letting you have it."
Karla looked at her sarcastically. "Hazel, I suggest you give it to me. Such expensive clothes are not suitable for you. I am talking about clothes and people, if it is not yours, then it is not yours, leave them alone!”
Hazel was speechless. Karla’s paranoia was really intense, she was talking with such a strange attitude, didn’t she even know what she was saying?
“Who said that I couldn't afford it?” Hazel said.
Hazel would not give in? Karla became even angrier, and she sneered aloud. " Hazel, I really didn’t know that you bought such expensive clothes. Are you trying to find a new sugar daddy? Listen to me, it can’t last for long…”
"Karla!" Ivan glared at her. Karla did not know, but Ivan clearly knew that Hazel was with Joshua. Her words, in front of Hazel, seemed so ridiculous and shameful!
Karla’s outburst had started a scene, and many people were looking at them.
"Why are you angry?" Karla glared at him, "My uncle..."
Ivan suddenly felt exhausted. He could not stand to be in the kind of relationship that he would be threatened with whenever he disagreed, and he would always have to please other people.
"I know, I will explain to your uncle," Ivan had thought over what he was going to say before saying it, and he said coldly, "We are not suitable for each other, and we should break up."
After saying this, Ivan turned around and walked out of the store.
"You, what are you talking about?! You need to stay!" Karla's eyes were filled with shock. She could not believe that Ivan was actually breaking up with her, but Ivan left without going back.
Karla was ashamed and angry. More people were looking at her and Hazel, she had wanted to disrespect Hazel, but instead, she was disrespected by Ivan.
Looking back at Hazel, Karla was revengeful.
"Hazel, you are a bitch!" Karla screamed at her angrily. "You seduce other people’s boyfriends, you have been encouraging others, but yet you still cannot let go of Ivan. Why?”
"Karla," Hazel’s facial expression was upset, and she stepped forward angrily, "I dare you to say any more of this nonsense!"
Karla's expression changed, and she quickly stepped back.
She clearly remembered when Hazel used a shoulder throw on her before. She saw how angry Hazel was, and she was in fear of her temper.
"You, what do you want to do?!" Karla said with anger, "I didn’t say nonsense. I see you are clearly guilty! Besides, you do not want me to say that I will not say? Who do you think you are? Is this your home? Why are you so arrogant?”
Hazel was annoyed, and Karla was only antagonizing her more. She clearly wanted to make a big scene and air her dirty laundry. If Hazel argued with her, she would only make things worse, but others would think that Karla was telling the truth if she didn't argue.
The store manager came over, looked directly at Hazel, and suddenly said, "Miss, if you were coming to inspect the store, why did you not say hello in advance? I apologize for us neglecting you.”
"What, what?!" Karla looked at the scene in front of her with astonishment. The people who were watching Karla and Hazel began to whisper.
"No? So, is it true? Was this shop really opened by her family?"
"Since the girl is that rich, how can she be taking advantage of others? She is the one others would take from.”
"You arrived late, I saw it clearly from the beginning. It is that woman who wanted to take away the dress that the lady is looking at. She was trying to get close to her, the lady ignored her and her boyfriend, but then the boyfriend got angry and left. She began to tell lies and defame the lady…”
"You, what are you talking about?! That is not true!" Listening to the whispers, Karla screamed at them angrily. "This shop cannot belong to her family! Impossible!"
"If you dare to yell at the guests in my store again," Hazel said, sinking her face and cooperating with the performance. "I will call the police to report you are disturbing the public!”
"You, you won’t…" Karla pointed at her with annoyance.
