“I must say you've got a way with words that seems perfect for a managerial promotion.” Natalie said with a
smile, her voice soft.
You must be joking, my lady!” The associate replied, somewhat flattered and startled, bowing repeatedly in
response.
But Natalie's smile was gentle. “Why would you think I'm joking? You seem to think the rules of the marketplace
don’t apply to you. I'm not aware that the policies of Global Entertainment Group include allowing employees to
insult customers or refuse to let them try on clothes at their discretion?”
“Of course not, my lady.” Wood replied, lowering his head slightly and speaking softly.
The associate, overhearing their exchange, was shaking in her pumps, hastily apologizing to Natalie, “I'm so

People like her were bad for the company’s bottom line.
As one of the silent shareholders of Global Entertainment Group, Natalie felt she had the authority to hire or fire
any regular employee.

affecting a second sale,” Natalie said, pointing to two particular garments and continuing her instructions.
“A single mistake, ten times the compensation!”
The younger clerk nearby didn’t dare make a sound and quickly got to work, following Natalie's orders to the
letter.
Natalie frowned, speaking in a low voice. “Your assistant manager hasn't been fired yet, she’s still an employee.
It's not your place to clean up her mess.”
The associate, unable to voice her distress, with a pale face, stepped forward to tidy things up herself.
“And you helpwith the checkout. The sale counts towards your performance,” Natalie said. turning her gaze
to the clerk.
The clerk glanced at the associate with hesitation, seemingly afraid to take the credit for the sale.
Natalie could tell right away the associate was someone who used her position to belittle and bully. Even with
her dismissal imminent, the clerk was still afraid to cross het.
Natalie thought for a moment and then smiled at the clerk. “Starting today, you're taking over

If someone took her spot, she'd never get it back!
But Natalie interrupted with a tight frown, “Are you the one calling the shots at Global Entertainment Group?”
“No, I'm not...” The associate's face turned even paler, and she fell silent.
Minutes later, Natalie and Rosie walked out of the store, each carrying a shopping bag, calmly leaving the scene

Everyone knew the kind of pull Natalie had with the James family. Her influence was undeniable.
When Rosie found out that Gavin was also at the Global Mall and had heard about her actions, she went pale.
“Rosie, were you insane? Who in their right mind says such things? Calling her auntie as if it's nothing! What on
earth can’t you do?”
