Chapter 30
30 Kneel and Apologize
Hearing Sharon’s words, John frowned. It seems like my mistress had been troubled.
He turned around and made a call. “Get out here now! If I don’t see you in five minutes, I’ll get someone to destroy your shop right now. Your subordinates really don’t know how to do things. Is this how they treat their guests?”
Winnie was no longer as arrogant and proud as before. Instead, her eyes were filled with fear and terror. Is this woman really that powerful? My boss is a big shot in New York; both the government and the underworld have to give him some face. Who would’ve thought that someone would yell at him like that and ask him to get down here immediately?
In less than two minutes, a dark-skinned fatty scrambled down. When he saw John, he quickly bowed and even took the initiative to extend his hand. “Brother John! Hey, look at Brother John. Why didn’t you tell me you were coming at this time? If I had known you were coming, I wouldn’t have opened today and would’ve waited here for you. It’s really my honor that you’re willing to give face to a small shop like ours.”
Unexpectedly, John didn’t bother to waste his breath on him at all. With a glance, he scared the fatty so much that the latter instantly kneeled down. “Brother John... we-we can talk things out!”

“It’s only been a few years, and you’re already putting on such airs? What’s wrong? Is your shop assistant from the royal family, or is she a Parisian socialite? How dare you slight our mistress. Are you tired of living?” John knew that Sharon had been living a tough life all these years. Now that his master had finally acknowledged her, how could he let her suffer such grievances?
The fatty looked at John’s expression. He originally felt helpless, but now, he was afraid. John’s mistress? What kind of existence is she!? Isn’t someone who can be served by John like the mother of God?
His pupils shrank as he turned to look around John. When he saw Sharon, the fatty was shocked. This person... is too ordinary! Even I wouldn’t be able to tell the girl’s true identity if I personally received her, let alone my subordinates. But now that I have provoked her, I have no choice...
“Miss, Miss...” The fatty was extremely nervous; he was already stuttering and unable to say a single word. “Miss, I’m really sorry! I didn’t expect this to happen either. I apologize to you here.”
The fatty looked at Sharon, bowed heavily, and kowtowed to her without hesitation. Thereafter, he stood up and glanced at the staff behind him. “Which blind idiot offended Miss? Hurry up and confess! Do you want me to fire all of you?”
All the staff present instantly looked at Winnie and the antique shopkeeper.
The two of them looked at each other in silence-especially Winnie, who kept her head down, afraid that the things she did would be exposed.
However, the fatty caught their gazes and instantly rushed over. He raised his hand and slapped their faces twice. “You b*tch! Who are you to offend this madam? Take a good look at who she is! If you hurt the madam today, get out of the shop in the future. I’ll see who still dares to employ you.”
Winnie covered her face that had been slapped and cried while trembling. “I’m sorry, Boss-I’m really sorry. I was blind; I looked down on people! Can you let me off this time? Please.”
Let you go? The fatty was holding back his anger. If I let them go now, we might have to meet tomorrow in the stomach of a shark in the Pacific Ocean.
“Boss, it has nothing to do with the manager. This woman pretended to be poor to trick us...”
Slap!
Another loud slap was heard.
The fatty grabbed the shopkeeper’s collar and slapped him again, knocking him unconscious. Immediately after, he continued to slap the latter until his face became a bloody mess. Only then did he stop. “F*ck! Who told you to spout nonsense again? Do you think you can spout nonsense about the madam’s disposition? Are you trying to kill me? Tell me! I’ll kill you first, and we’ll die together!”
The shopkeeper had completely lost consciousness, but the fatty had no intention of stopping.
“And you!” The fatty grabbed Winnie’s hair and pushed her onto the ground. “Apologize to the madam immediately! Hurry!”
In an instant, Winnie’s freshly healed nose bridge turned into a pig’s nose. At this moment, her face was covered in blood. “I apologize! Miss, please forgive me. I shouldn’t have looked down on you and used my status to bully you.”
