Night of Destiny ( Anastasia Tillman ) novel Chapter 2572

“Hey, Mom. What’s going on?” Catalina asked, still completely clueless.

“Catalina, how can you continue to spend money recklessly at a time like this?! Do you realize how much I have to compensate the

investors this time?”

“Mom, it’s my own money that I’m spending!” Catalina said, feeling unjustly accused.

“Even if it’s yours, you can’t just spend it. I’m trying to raise money! You also need to contribute a portion.”

“Mom, you haven’t told me how much we have to pay.”

Before, Gloria didn’t dare to disclose the amount of money involved, fearing it would put pressure on her daughter. Now that Catalina asked, and she also wanted to stop her from spending recklessly, she had to tell the truth. “It’s about 70 million.”

“What?!” Catalina exclaimed on the other end. “Are you serious?!”

“Yes, and if I don’t fulfill the contract, I’ll have to go to jail.” Gloria said angrily and added, “Return all these bags. Save as much money as you can.”

Recalling how she bought these bags in front of Harmony, Catalina refused to return them. She couldn’t bear the thought of the two shop assistants spreading gossip about her.

“Mom, I won’t return these bags. I like them.”

Livid, Gloria hung up the phone. One way or another, she was determined to get the money back. With that, she grabbed the bags and drove to the store.

“Mrs. Martin, these bags can be returned, but Ms. Martin must come in person to return them. We need to recover the receipts.”

“I don’t care. You refund me now and transfer the money to my bank account,” Gloria said assertively.

“Mom, please go home!” Catalina urged, embarrassed as she noticed people starting to take pictures.

After Gloria was persuaded to leave by the assistant, Catalina took this chance as an excuse to return all the bags, angrily complaining, “How dare you treat my mother like that?! I don’t want your bags anymore. Refund me immediately!”

In the afternoon, these two shop assistants thought they had received a high commission and were happy to leave work to celebrate. Little did they know that before they could enjoy themselves, Catalina came to return the bags.

They immediately served reluctantly. “Please show us your receipt, Ms. Martin. Let’s follow the procedure to return the bag, okay? And the money in the account can’t be refunded to you immediately. It needs to be approved by the head office before it can be refunded.”

Catalina felt a little guilty under the gaze of these two female shop assistants. “Okay, it doesn’t matter when the money is refunded.”

When Catalina finished handling it, the shop assistant behind her couldn’t help but mock, “Hmph, rich kid by day, penniless by night. Seriously! If you can’t spend, don’t buy! We got busy packing all these bags for her, only to get nothing in the end! Worst of all, we even got scolded!”
