Chapter 261: Someone Bullied Me
“Um, what’s happening?” Jared inquired, clearly puzzled.
“Somebody bullied me,” Julia revealed, finding herself at a loss after making that admission. The fact that she had confided in Jared was a departure from her usual approach to dealing with bullies–always a direct counterattack, relying on no one but herself. The tone she had used moments ago, especially, was something she couldn’t fully accept.
“Who bullied you?” Jared’s expression turned serious.
“Ahem-” Julia cleared her throat, adjusted her emotions, and continued, “Vivien and Candace. I came here to buy clothes for you, but they told me to leave…” She briefly recounted the recent events to Jared.
“Wait for me for three minutes.”
After saying this, Jared hung up the phone and called out towards the door.
“Joseph.”
Joseph pushed the door open and walked in.
“Boss, what’s the matter?”
“At the Georgia City Mall, make arrangements…”
Candace looked at Julia with a mocking expression. “Tsk tsk tsk -pretending, continue pretendingg. I’ll give you a whole sack. Let’s see how much you can pretend.”
Julia raised an eyebrow lightly, gazing back at Candace. “Am I pretending? You’ll find out soon enough.”
“Hehehe,” Candace laughed, “From the way you talk, you seem quite confident! I’m curious, what can you do for me? Also, about that call just now, Georgia City Mall belongs to your company, right? Who were you speaking to? Do you know the higher–ups of Georgia City Mall? Who do you think you are? Let me tell you, this mall is under the North Financial Consortium. Don’t tell me you know people from the North Financial Consortium. If you really do and can do something for me, I’ll present my face to you and let you hit and slap me as you please!”
Having said this, in order to mock Julia further, Candace deliberately extended her face towards Julia.
Vivien frowned, staring at Julia with a look of scrutiny and evaluation.
The North Financial Consortium? Speaking of which, the person Julia was dating seemed to be related to the North Financial Consortium. However, after analyzing it with Carter later, that person named Jared was probably just an insignificant figure within the North Financial Consortium. Could he really have the ability to influence the decisions of such a large mall as Georgia City Mall?
As Vivien was contemplating this, she noticed the mall manager rushing in their direction. Seeing this, a sense of unease suddenly surged within Vivien.
After the mall manager arrived, he immediately inquired, “May I ask which one of you is Miss Watson?”
“That would be me,” Julia said, glancing at the time. It had only been two minutes since the call; Jared’s efficiency was truly remarkable!
“Miss Watson, hello. I have already heard about the situation here. Rest assured, I will handle this matter to your satisfaction,” the mall manager nodded and spoke very politely, bowing in respect.

In the
eyes of Vivien and Candace, this scene seemed to hint at the mall manager being somewhat obsequious to Julia.
Candace was displeased and immediately started complaining to the mall manager about Julia.
“Manager, we haven’t done anything wrong with this matter. It’s her, a penniless person who came here to freeload and try on clothes. I can tell you know her, but the mall has its rules, and you can’t break them for her,” Candace said with disdain.
The mall manager looked stern and said, “Miss Ross, if you want to talk about rules with me, then let’s discuss them properly. Customers are our gods, and the mall opens its doors to serve customers. Is your attitude in line with the standards of the service industry? You run a clothing store, and it’s perfectly normal for customers to try on clothes. You humiliated someone simply because you felt they couldn’t afford it, and that behavior is too snobbish. It not only tarnishes the image of your own brand but also affects how customers perceive our entire Georgia City Mall!” “I…” Candace was momentarily at a loss for words.
The mall manager continued, “Starting from now, our collaboration with your brand in this mall is terminated. You must immediately remove your merchandise.”
“What?!” Candace was shocked!
Vivien also had an expression of disbelief on her face.
However, both of them turned to look at Julia. Julia was leaning casually against the door, looking relaxed and content, with a faint smile in her eyes.
Julia! Did she have this much influence?
“Manager, are you kidding? Our brand has been here for several years, and the contract hasn’t expired yet. You can’t just ask us to remove our merchandise, can you?” Candace protested. “That’s right, I don’t have that much authority, so if you’re not satisfied, you can take it up with my superiors. But this is their decision now!” The mall manager replied fearlessly, knowing that he had the backing of Jared, the big boss.
With Jared supporting him, the mall manager had no fear.
Moreover, judging from the tone in which Joseph spoke during the phone call just now, Miss Watson’s relationship with their big boss was extraordinary. If he handled this matter to Miss Watson’s satisfaction, it would be equivalent to satisfying the big boss. Therefore, he would spare no effort to drive Candace and her group out. The more he pleased Miss Watson, the greater his chances of getting a promotion and a raise.
“You… you all…” Candace was so anxious that her eyes turned red. Their brand was doing well here, but because of a minor conflict with Julia, such a huge issue had arisen. How was she to explain this to her brother?
going
At that moment, Carter, who had received the news, received a phone call. “Nianyan, what’s going on exactly? How could something like this happen out of nowhere? Who did you offend?” Carter asked with a stern face.
He had been in a meeting when he suddenly received a call saying that Georgia City Mall wanted their brand to remove its merchandise.
If they didn’t comply, all cooperation with the Ross Corporation would be terminated.
“Bro, I… I really haven’t offended anyone. It’s just related to Julia-
“Julia?” Carter was momentarily stunned. How did removing their merchandise have anything to

do with Julia?
Candace explained in detail what had happened just now.
After listening, Carter’s face became extremely tense, and the stern face of Jared flashed in his mind.
“Could it be related to him?”
“Huh? Him? Who are you talking about, brother?” Candace was confused.
“We’ll talk about this later. Let me make a call to Julia first.”
After ending the call with Candace, Carter immediately dialed Julia’s number.
“Buzz Buzz Buzz-”
Julia’s phone vibrated, and she looked at the caller ID.
Candace and Vivien’s gaze immediately fell on the time displayed on Julia’s phone. It was
definitely Carter calling.
That annoying Julia! Vivien cursed in her heart. This was definitely Julia’s scheme, deliberately doing this to force Carter to contact her.
Candace thought the same.
Shameless! She uses such despicable means to force her brother to contact her.
While Vivien and Candace were thinking this way, Julia answered the call. “It’s useless for you to kneel and beg me right now. Your brand must leave today!”
