“If nothing here catches your eye, we can head to another boutique. Besides, this set is far too frilly and pastel. Mom never favors shades like this p>
Anton felt a vague sense of being slighted. Rejected outright, he had no desire to linger any longer. His mind felt tight and throbbing with a splitting headache.
He also thought the design looked far too youthful for their mother, who’d always preferred soft blues and muted greens.
“Anton, let me talk to the clerk.” Jolie smiled sweetly.
“Hello, would you mind giving me the owner’s contact information? We’re utterly fond of this set. I’d love to talk to him personally and ask if he’d be willing to part with it p>
Jolie hadn’t anticipated the clerk turning her down flat. She kept her smile warm and her voice soft and honeyed.
She genuinely adored the jewelry set.
It was clearly styled for young women. If she gave it to Wendy, Wendy definitely wouldn’t like it, which meant it would eventually end up in Jolie’s jewelry box.
Her friends would definitely be filled with envy once she wore it out in public.
Unwilling to give up, Jolie was determined to try one more time.
The set even had a beautiful name: Princess’ Treasure,
A treasure fit for a princess.
olie thought it suited her perfectly.
I’m afraid we can’t share our client’s private contact details.” The clerk maintained her polite smile.
Inside, she muttered to herself.
Great, even the female lead here has zero common sense about rules.
す
She just walks right in and expects us to hand over a customer’s contact info like it’s nothing.
Turns out all those CEO romance novels really are accurate-none of the leads ever follow basic rules.
They set their mind on something and want it no matter what it takes.
And people like us end up stuck in the middle, taking all the heat.
There’s no way we’d dare leak a client’s private information; we don’t want to end up in court over this.
One casual demand from this female lead, and she’d get us dragged into a lawsuit in no time.
Any reasonable person would at least ask if we could pass a message along to the buyer.

But no, straight up asking for personal details right off the bat.
If anything goes wrong later we’re the ones who’ll get punished for it.
Ugh.
Finished
CEO romance novels are fine just as fiction-ever translate them into real life, or you’ll just want to facepalm at how unreasonable these characters are.
“You…” Rejected time and again, coupled with a streak of endless bad luck lately, Jolie nearly lost her graceful composure.
But catching sight of Anton beside her, she forced her brittle smile back into place.
“We truly love this jewelry set. Could you please do us this favor? We’re from the Knox family. I’m a regular customer here and hold a premium gold membership at your store p>
Jolie pulled out the prestige of the Knox name, set on claiming the jewelry no matter what. She deliberately emphasized her family status-the Knoxes held considerable standing across Seacrest, and most people would readily show them respect.
Jolie had lived a smooth, sheltered life for over a decade, rarely ever failing to get anything she wanted.
She’d even managed to drive Zora away from the Knox Villa once.
At first, her parents and brothers had only doted on her. What did it matter that Zora was the biological daughter? She’d never won their affection anyway.
Yet ever since Zora left the Knox household, nothing/seemed to go right for Jolie.
Opal took an instant dislike to her, her mother was always distracted, and Holden even kept secrets from her now.
Everything had started changing after Zora left the Knox Villa.
