Thorns Grow After Betrayal (Celeste and Chester) novel Chapter 335

“I knew it! You’re passing off inferior goods!” the woman immediately roared.

The entire crowd was in an uproar.

“Oh my god! I can’t believe Velvet Noir actually did something like this!”

“All that talk about being customer-focused and pursuing quality was just a bunch of empty promises!”

“This is unconscionable! What if someone with an allergy to this fabric bought it? This store could have killed them!”

“That’s what happened to this woman’s sister! She’s here to stand up for her! And the store just kept denying it. Serves them right! Now the truth is out!”

The crowd’s condemnation grew louder.

Some even started egging on other customers to demand refunds on the spot.

The woman looked smugly at Celestine. “Designer Selwyn, stop making excuses! I demand that Kismet Collective and Velvet Noir issue a public apology online to my sister and all consumers, admitting that your clothes are defective! If you can’t handle it, then just get out of the industry! From what I hear, your company has forced out countless talented designers just to promote you! If you can pull something like this, who’s to say your designs aren’t plagiarized too!”

“We didn’t! Don’t talk nonsense!” Flossie shot back, furious.

Kelley was also upset, blaming herself. “How could there be a fake dress? When we took inventory the day before yesterday, everything was normal. If only the security cameras had been installed earlier.”

Meanwhile, Yolande had already ended her livestream and retreated to the edge of the crowd.

*Hah*, she thought. *If they had just listened to me and admitted fault on the spot with some compensation, it wouldn’t have caused so much trouble.*

Things like this were common in the industry.

And now, they had stirred up a massive hornet’s nest.

She certainly wasn’t going to take the fall for this!

Celestine was still looking down at the medical documents that had been thrown at her along with the receipt.
