Coolest Girl in Town

Chapter 749 Yeah, I’m That Generous
“I’m here as a consumer, Miss Celina, and you trying to drive your own customer out of the store is a terrible idea.” As Tom was
speaking, he stood up and fastened the buttons on his suit; neither his voice nor his movement showed a hint of distress.
“Do I look like I give a sh*t!? As the boss, I have the final say here, and I demand you to leave now. I will call security on you if
you refuse!” Seeing how nonchalant Tom was, Celina was so agitated that she looked as if she could kill someone.
As though he was unfazed by her ferocious emotions, Tom, who was quite dissatisfied with her attitude, pointed at the card in
her hand. “At least return the card to me. I hope you ain’t trying to rob me in broad daylight?” Hearing that, Celina glanced down,
and it was only then did she realize what she had been holding all this time—Tom’s credit card. She threw it back at him, as if it
was disgusting. “I don’t give a sh*t about your card. Just f*ck off!”
He placed the card back in his pocket and symbolically patted his clothes. “A word of advice for you—the way you’re acting
toward people from the same profession is going against your own advantage. Ever heard of ‘harmony brings wealth’?”
“You’re just a dog raised by Elise! How dare you speak to me this way?! Shameless of you! Leave by yourself or else, don’t
blame me for asking the guards to throw you out!” Celina crossed her arms in front of her chest, acting arrogantly.
Regardless of how well-mannered Tom usually was, he was no longer capable of being the chivalrous guy, especially after being
humiliated by Celina in front of everyone. He squinted his eyes and provoked her solemnly, “Oh, so you assume that I’m a spy
and you want to kick me out now? How many spies from our side do you think have ‘infiltrated’ your store today? You can chase
me out, but you won’t be able to throw them all out! Even without me, Alexis will still be able to purchase all your cheap jewelry
today!”
Celina got startled when she heard that, and she subconsciously looked around at the group of customers craning their necks
trying to figure out what was going on—all of them suddenly looked so suspicious.
Just then, an assistant approached Celina and whispered to her, “Boss, the one at counter number two seems to be wearing the
Alexis uniform. Also, I vaguely remember seeing that one at counter twelve when I went to Alexis to spy on them!”
What the assistant said ignited the rage in Celina—she could no longer contain her anger. “Guards!” The bodyguards, who were
guarding outside and heard their boss shouting, quickly made their way through the crowd and reached where she was standing.
“Yes, Boss?”

Pointing at the two individuals the assistant identified, Celina lost all her cool at this point. “Throw that man and that woman out!”
She would not mind killing the spies herself, so merely kicking them out was already considered the utmost restraint.
After the bodyguards received the order, they walked toward the two individuals aggressively. The man was still cooperative as
he left without putting up much fight. It was not the same story with the woman, though, as she got offended at the approaching
human wall.
“Which one of you lowly beings dare to touch me?! We’re here as genuine consumers, and yet you treat us like trash?! We
demand to speak to your manager! Just call the police already!”
It turned out that the woman came to Saunders Jewelry with her friends and family, and they were all very upset about being
kicked out without any reason. The store fell into instant chaos with them quarreling and yelling at the bodyguards, and other
customers watching a real-life drama. Seeing that his plan to create chaos was successful, Tom gloated over the whole situation.
“Oh no, what chaos. You must be busy now trying to figure out how to calm the situation. I swear I won’t be a bother anymore.”
Without waiting for a response, Tom turned around and left the store.
The customers were still yelling in the distance, and they were so loud that it was giving Celina a headache. She rubbed her
temples, but she could not be bothered with whatever was happening—she was satisfied so long as she kicked out the spies
Elise sent to her store.
After the disturbance finally died down that afternoon, Saunders Jewelry also posted a close-of-business notice, and the city’s
two major jewelry stores withdrew from the market at the same time. While this indeed caused some market downturn, it had
also given other small jewelry traders a chance to breathe.
At the Griffith Residence, Yuri left the house for an interview early in the morning, and after ensuring that she was no longer to be
seen in the house, Christopher gathered everyone and made a sincere plea. “I apologize for the ungodly hour, but I need your
help tonight in setting up the scene for me to confess to Yuri. I like her, and I want to surprise her with a romantic confession.”
Brendan was in a daze for quite some time when he heard that. It was only after a while he recovered that he sneered,
“Surprise? Don’t make me laugh. How can you be so sure that it’s not shocking for Yuri and that she will agree to be your
girlfriend?”
“Yeah, he’s right.” Thinking that her son finally understood how he truly felt toward Yuri, Madeline decided that she should
interject with discernment to discourage Christopher and help her son out. “You both have only known each other for a few days,
and your current pace is too fast. You should try and get to know Yuri more before confessing.”

“I appreciate your kindness, Mrs. Griffith and Mr. Brendan. The fact is that Yuri and I have already known each other when we
were both abroad. I came to this show just for her, as I believe you all have already noticed. I have thought this through—I really
want to take this step forward with her.” Christopher sounded very optimistic.
Oh my, such sincerity! How am I supposed to dampen his enthusiasm when he has already pondered deeply over whether to
confess or not? Madeline thought. Under the circumstances, she had no choice but to frantically hint at her son with her eyes,
Say something now or else it will be too late! However, Brendan did not seem to notice her as he was glancing at the floor and
fully immersed in his own thoughts.
“Happy to help; I’m mostly free nowadays because the last round of venture capital had passed.” Danny stood up and stretched
while flaunting and winking at Christopher at the same time. Yeah, I’m that generous. Seeing that, Brendan quietly stared at his
dummy brother sideways.
“Thank you.” Christopher smiled, knowing what Danny tried to convey with his wink.
“Whatever help you need, buddy. Just let us know.” Alexander also replied. Everyone nodded their heads when they heard
Alexander expressing his support—everyone except for Madeline and Brendan, of course.
After a while, Brendan put away the tablet and stood up. Just as Madeline thought he was going to do something or even say
anything to oppose Christopher’s proposal, he merely responded to Christopher in a cold manner. “Well, no gentleman in his
right mind would give a beautiful lady like Yuri a pass. Since helping others out is a virtue, I will put up the balloons.” He then left
with his tablet in hand.
Madeline was grinning at first but as she tentatively listened to what Brendan was saying, she felt her hope was crushed little by
little and vanished into thin air. Being utterly speechless at her son’s behavior, she thought, Such is life, I guess, full of ups and
downs. But... How can Brendan be so oblivious? He should have pursued Yuri instead of acting like he does not care about her
at all! I hope Yuri rejects Christopher; otherwise, who’s going to bear my dumb son’s child and continue the family line? Oh, wait!
Speaking of which, why isn’t Elise pregnant having been married to Alexander for so long?!
Thinking that, Madeline suddenly regained her spirits and turned looking at Elise with resentment. As Elise was busy checking
her phone for Tom’s updates, she was unaware of that. Alexander, on the other hand, realized that his mother was throwing
looks at his wife. Knowing that something was brewing in his mother’s mind, though he could not figure out what that was, he
stood up and went to Elise. He effectively blocked Madeline’s view as he reached his hand out.

“Let’s take a nap upstairs.” Elise agreed; she held his hand and went upstairs with him lovingly. Both were unaware of what
Madeline was thinking, nor did they notice that she was trying to calm herself down by beating her chest repeatedly. My loving
God, please help this bunch of kids!
When Yuri finally arrived home at 8.00PM, she was guided by the servant to the garden. She noticed that the garden looked
different from when she left the house—fresh flowers were everywhere she could lay her eyes upon. There was lighting across
the garden and music playing in the background. The atmosphere was romantic and filled with affectionate details. As she was
standing there enjoying the view but at the same time wondering what was going on, Christopher held a bouquet of delicate
roses and walked toward her. Stopping a few steps in front of her, he asked tenderly, “Yuri, will you be my girlfriend?”
“Promise him! Say yes!” Tara seemed very excited and was the first to cheer. In sharp contrast to Tara was Brendan, who was
standing beside her, emitting an aura as cold as a block of ice.
