Sweetheart Do You Still Love Me novel Chapter 604

Chapter 604 Not Murder, But Revenge

All the young woman could do at this point was shift the blame to Yelena.

Yelena raised an eyebrow. "Is that not because of your poor manners? You stomped on the dress, yet you pinned the blame on me."

Deep down, Hank smirked. As expected, Yelena had been hanging around him for so long that she knew how to logically analyze a situation.

Now, he no longer had to worry that she would be pushed around by others.

Celine was not a fool either. She could not keep her calm after hearing the young woman twist the story using some weird rationale. "If that is the case, you are no longer welcome in my store, Miss."

Stunned, the young woman awkwardly nodded.

Yelena could not resist adding fuel to the fire. "Remember to pay the store for the dress you ruined."

The young woman shot Yelena a harsh glare. "That is none of your concern!"

She then handed her card to the sales associate. Once payment was made, she slunk out of the store with the tattered dress in her arms.

Yelena waited until the door closed behind the woman before turning to thank Celine with a smile on her face.

To her surprise, when Celine saw her face, she exclaimed in surprise and joy, "It's you! I'm not wrong, am I? You are Yelena Sullivan, right? I've seen you on television."

"That's me," Yelena replied, scratching the back of her head in embarrassment.

"I adore your shows. You are a great actress. You're also very beautiful and as adorable as a button."

Celine then caved into her maternal urges to ruffle Yelena's hair.

Yelena was embarrassed. She had not expected Celine to know who she was.

"I even asked Elspeth to get me your autograph," Celine said.

Yelena was astonished to hear Elspeth's name.

"You know Elspeth?" she asked.

"That's right," Celine replied with a smile. "We actually bonded over clashing with each other."

"Clashing with each other?" Yelena was stunned.

The dazed look on Yelena's face endeared her to Celine even further. "It's not what you think. Oh, you're just so cute! For several years in a row, I have won every international design award for which I was nominated. That one year we met, Elspeth broke all of my streaks. Hence, we knew each other because we clashed."

Yelena knew Elspeth had always been extraordinarily talented, especially in fashion design.

"I helped you because of her," Celine explained. "If she finds out I let her dearest friend be bullied in my store, she will come looking for a fight."

Celine pouted with an exasperated look on her face.

"Thank you."

Yelena's admiration for Elspeth grew once more.

Hank had been rejoicing Yelena's ability to stand up for herself, so when he heard she was assisted once more because of Elspeth's reputation, his face twisted into an ugly look.

Before this, he had been willing to stay away from Elspeth and let her be. However, why was she involved in every aspect of their lives?

Seeing that the conversation had drifted off into a lull, Simone grabbed Yelena's hand and smiled while patting it. "I had been worried you would be an easy target for bullies because of how meek you are. I didn't think you had a sharp tongue as well. That's good. That is how the future Mrs. Damazio should act."

Meek...

Yelena ducked her head down and guiltily smiled.

She had only acted meek before her elders so that they would like her. In reality, her personality was like a feral kitten.

She would bite anyone who dared to lay a hand on her.
