Chapter 475
475
“Eh”, said a small voice, as the man and woman slowly shifted their gaze to me.
Their frightened eyes meet mine. Their faces were so pale that I wondered if they weren’t feeling well.
“Will… liams…, A, li, cia-sama?”
I almost burst out laughing at his puckering, goldfish-like mouth.
I did not like relying on the family name, but seeing a reaction like this still made me realize the power of the five great nobles.
The owner and Isabella were also staring at me with surprised eyes.
I should put some pressure on them.
It would be more Villainess-like if I pressured them, wouldn’t it? Punishment for stepping on a handkerchief.
I checked the crowd that had gathered around the store. I’d like to see the chairman of the Auges Trading Company and his son making a fuss like this.
Besides, it was me, the Villainess!
I said nothing and just turned my sharp gaze on the man. I showed him the dignity of a young lady of one of the five great noble families.
Not only the man but also the woman shuddered and immediately put their heads on the ground.
“I am very sorry, I had no idea that you were Alicia-sama.”
It was not amusing to see their attitude change in an instant.
If they were so overbearing, I wish they’d carry through a little more.
I brushed them off without saying a word. I could see that the people gathered in front of the store were also holding their breath at the tension.
Soon the chairman bowed his head as well.
“I am truly sorry for my foolish and rude behavior.”
At the same time, the bodyguards behind him bowed their heads to me as well.
…Wow, I really look like a Villainess.
It had been so long since I’ve been out on the town, and I was being bowed down to like this. …I couldn’t wait to see what rumors about Alicia Williams would circulate tomorrow!
Without me saying a word, the man spoke up, as if he couldn’t stand the pressure.
“I really apologize for not knowing who you are and for being so rude.”
“If I didn’t have my status, you would have continued to have that arrogant attitude for a long time, wouldn’t you?”
He may bow his head, but he couldn’t change the past.
People like him should be punished once. I’d rather not have anyone say this to me anymore, though.
In the business world, people would normally just shut up and walk away.
Meeting me just hastened his demise a bit.
“Well, as you have requested, I won’t be using your Trading Company again.”
I said this with a smile and the man looked up. A few seconds later, the chairman also raises his head.
“That was…”
I interrupted the man’s attempt to retort and released the words.
“Are you stupid? When you are in business, think that everyone is a customer except you. You never know who you’re going to meet. If you don’t even know that, you shouldn’t be calling yourself a merchant.”
No one said anything. …There was no one here who could talk back to me.
I picked up the soiled handkerchief with shoe prints on it.
“Sure, you have the right to choose your customers. But they also have the right to choose the store. But be aware that you don’t have the right to choose for someone else. Nothing makes a man look more foolish and miserable than a fox that thinks he is the tiger.”
Let me say all I have to say.
Because I could make a name for myself as Villainess in front of so many people watching!
I cast a spell on the soiled handkerchief, instantly restoring it to its original clean state.
“If you don’t like it, don’t get involved. You must have a lot of free time on your hands to come all the way here just to hurl abusive remarks.”
