Tessa had taken some time to familiarize terself with the current state of Sinclair Corp to better control the situation when the time came; however, there was another important day before the shareholder meeting- Ysabel's eighteenth birthday.

It was Sunday tomorrow, which happened to be Ysabel's birthday. Tessa had taken half a day off to go to the Imperial Mall to pick out a gift for her.

After observing her for a while, Tessa had gotten a decent sense of who Ysabel was. As a noble with everything at her fingertips, finding a suitable gift for her was quite challenging.

Tessa entered a jewelry store, wanting to pick out a piece that suited Ysabel. She dressed casually in a white T-shirt, black capris, and canvas shoes, which made her look quite plain.

As a result, since her arrival, the clerks had only greeted her and then busied themselves with other things, completely ignoring Tessa.

Tessa didn't mind; she slowly browsed the jewelry in the display cases.

Coincidentally, Winona and a few friends were also out shopping. Winona didn't have classes on Saturdays because she attended art classes instead.

Margot called her, and she left her class immediately. Margot, a fan of luxury goods, came from the wealthier Shelby family of the Thunder Pack, and being an only child, she was indulged heavily.

Margot and Winona were followed by several girlfriends. Generous Margot always enjoyed buying small gifts for them, so they always accompanied her shopping.

Carrying Margot's shopping bags was a small price to pay for the random designer gifts she handed out when pleased.

"Winnie, what's been bothering you lately?"

"It's my sister," Winona never hid anything from Margot. "You know she's back, and now, my grandfather even gave her shares in the company. No matter how hard I try, it's useless..."

"It's just twenty percent of the shares. Once my cousin comes back, and you marry him, the Sinclair family won't mean a thing."

Margot was Connor's cousin, which was why she and Winona were so close.

"Don't talk nonsense, Connor might not even like me!"

Connor's mom was quite fond of her and wanted her and Connor to become mates, but that wasn't necessarily Connor's own wish.

What mattered most was what Connor thought.

"Winnie, you don't need to worry so much. Didn't Connor care a lot about you before he went abroad? Plus, you've got me to help!"

Margot patted Winona's shoulder encouragingly when suddenly, she stopped in her tracks. "Isn't that Tessa,

that little wretch?"

"Let's go in and have a look," Margot said, clearly looking for trouble.

At that moment, Tessa had taken an interest in a bracelet.

"Hello, could you show me this bracelet, please?"

"Ma'am, are you sure you want to buy it? Our items are very expensive."

Tessa frowned.

"I said, show me this bracelet."

Tessa was growing impatient but repeated her request.

"Do you know how much this bracelet costs?" The salesperson was still reluctant to fetch it.

Just then, Margot and Winona entered.

"Show me that bracelet," Margot demanded, striding up to the salesperson confidently.

The salesperson recognized Margot, the only daughter of the Shelby family from Thunder Pack, who had bought many items here. Anything she wanted, no matter the cost, she would buy.

"Of course, Ms. Margot, I'll get it for you right away."

Every time Margot shopped here, she spent a lot, and it looked like today would be no exception.

"I saw that bracelet first," Tessa said coolly, wondering why she always ran into such nauseating people.

"You saw it first? Have you paid for it? This bracelet costs 700,000 dollars! Miss, if you want to buy a bracelet, you might want to try a small gift shop outside. Our items aren't suited for you." The salesperson continued to mock Tessa.
