As bsoon /bas Mr. Reynolds arrived, Madison quickly stepped forward to greet him.

b“/bMr. Reynoldsb!/bb” /b

“bMrs. /bJonesb!/bb” /b

Mr. Reynolds, who had good rtions with the Jones family, approached when he heard Madison call out to him.

“Mrs. Jonesb, /bis there something you need help with?”

“Mr. Reynolds, you don’t know, but a woman has been trying to seduce my husband, and now she’s here in the same store, fighting with me over clothesb. /bI want her banned from this mall and kicked out immediately! I don’t want ito /isee her for another second!”

“Oh? Which woman?” Mr. Reynolds asked.

“That woman over there!” Madison pointed towards Caitlin.

Mr. Reynolds immediately waved his hand. “Please escort this woman out!”

“Yes, sir!”

A few security guards quickly stormed into the

he store. Madison and Yasmin looked on with smug expressions.

The security guards approached Caitlin and said in a harsh tone, “Miss, please leave Queen11 right now!b” /b

Caitlin turned to face them, her expression cold.

“Kick me out? Why?”

“This is Mr. Reynolds‘ order! You’ve been cklisted, and Queen11 no longer wees you! Please leave immediately!”

The guards emphasized their point, preparing to force her out.

Caitlin and Wendy both nced toward the door and saw Madison talking to a well–dressed man. Caitlin recognized him as Mr. Reynolds, the owner of Queen11. It seemed that Madison was using her connection to him to try and get rid of her.

Wendy, worried about causing Caitlin more trouble, quietly tugged at her sleeve.

“Caitlin, let’s just leave, we can go somewhere else.”

“No, I’m inot /ileaving today. What can they do to me?” Caitlin said as she walked toward the door and looked directly at Madison and Mr. Reynolds.

“You want to kick me out? Whatw have I broken? Why can’t I be here?”

Mr. Reynolds took a moment to size Caitlin up. He thought she was attractiveb, /bbut she had the audacity to ruin someone belse’s /bfamily by ying the mistress. What a shame.

“Sorry, miss, but you’ve offended my friend, so I must ask you to leaveb,/bb” /bMr. Reynolds said.

Madison added, “And make sure she’s cklisted so she never sets foot here again!”

Mr. Reynolds immediately ordered his assistant, “Put this woman on the cklist and ban her ifrom /iever entering Queen11 again!”

“Yes, sir!” The assistant responded loudly, ready to take action.

“Hold on!”

Caitlin bstopped /bthem before bthey /bcould move forward. She then turned to Mr. Reynolds with a confident smileb. /b

bMr. /bReynoldsb, /bbif /byou apologize bnow/b, it’s not toote. If not, you’ll regret making this decision.”

Hearing her bold words, Mr. Reynoldsughed. “Who doesn’t know me, Henry Reynolds, in all of New York? Nobody dares bto /btalk to me like that

bMadison /band Yasmin exchanged smug nces.

b“/bCome on, Caitlin, just leave already!”

Caitlin’s lips curled into a cold, confident smile. “Give me one minute, and I’ll have you on your knees begging me to stay.”

Mr. Reynolds sneered, “A minute? What are you going to do in that time?b” /b

Madison fanned the mes, “Mr. Reynolds, don’t waste time with her. She’s just stalling!”

“Bring her out!”

Mr. Reynolds was growing impatient and quickly waved for the guards to act. But just then, his phone rang.

He saw the name on the caller ID and was instantly stunned.

“Wait, I need to take an important call!” Henry turned around respectfully and answered the phone.

“Hello, Mr. Gray! Yes, yes, how are you?”

Mr. Reynolds was nodding and bowing in deference. The caller was clearly someone with great authority.

As Mr. Reynolds listened to the voice on the other end, his smile froze, reced by an expression of shock and disbelief.

He slowly turned to look at Caitlin, his face suddenly contorted with difort.

“Oh… I understand… Yes, I know… I’m sorry, I’m so sorry! Please, give me another chance!”

“Don’t say I didn’t warn you, Henry. Caitlin is not someone you can offend. You’d better apologize to herb, /bor not even the gods will bbe /bable to save you!b” /b

The voice on the other end of the line spoke coldly before the call abruptly ended.

Henry turned back to Caitlin, his face now pale with fear, his body covered in cold sweat. He knew he had crossed the line by offending someone with far more power than he could have imagined. Mr. Gray was involved!

Henry realized now that Caitlin had far–reaching connections–Mr. Gray had stepped in on her behalf, and if he didn’t apologize, his business and future were on the line.

“Please, Caitlin… I’m sorry… I was blind, I didn’t know who you were. Please forgive me!” Henry pleaded.

Madison and Yasmin were both stunned. They had assumed that Mr. Gray would hold a grudge against Caitlin after the incident with Audrey, but insteadb, /bhe had stepped in to iprotect /iher. How could this be?

Both women were left speechless as they watched Henry grovelingb, /bpletely abandoning his earlier arrogance.

Caitlin nced at him coldly, a smug smile ying on her lips. “Mr. Reynolds, didn’t you just say you were going to kick me outb? /bAnd bcklist /bbme/bb“/bb” /b

“I’m sorry, I didn’t realize it was you, Caitlin.”

Henry’s tone hadpletely changed. He was now desperate and humble, his earlier pride nowhere to be found.

“I was wrong, please forgive me! bTo /bmake up for it, I can give you a lifetime VIP card for free. You can ishop /ihere without limits!”

“I don’t need that. Soon enough, Queen11 won’t even be yours. You no longer have the right to make such offers.”

As Caitlin spoke, Henry panicked even more. He was afraid that Caitlin would report him to Mr. Gray, leading to the loss of his entire empire.

“Please, Caitlin, I beg you! I know I’ve made a mistake, please give me a way out!”
