Chapter 758

“Mrs. Collins is almost sixty years old now, and she’s Samson’s elder. Don’t you think it was very
disrespectful of him to ask her to take off her dress in public?“

Luna chuckled when she heard this. “Let me ask you this, Mr. Lynch. Mrs. Collins accidentally spilled
food on her dress, so shouldn’t we just compensate her for the dry-cleaning fees? She refused to let us
compensate for that and instead insisted we pay her full price for the whole dress. When we refused to,
she called us poor and claimed we could never compare to Ms. Blake… Do you think it’s appropriate for
her to say these?“

Joshua paused, then immediately turned around to glance at Mrs. Collins. “Is this true?“

Mrs. Collins’ expression darkened. She initially thought Luna and the rest were just nobodies, that they
would be frightened as soon as they came face-to-face with Joshua and pay the compensation.

However, to her surprise, the people she had gotten in a dispute with were none other than Joshua’s
employees!

Moreover, she had thought Joshua would have her back and be supportive of her no matter what, simply
because she was Fiona’s servant, but she was wrong.

Mrs. Collins bit down on her lip and said, “Mr. Lynch, I insisted because this dress is expensive. Even if
they managed to clean it, it’d never be the

same anymore! This dress costs fifty thousand dollars, and today is the first time I’ve ever worn it, yet it’s
already ruined. I thought it was unfair, so I insisted they pay its original price! “

”Since Samson is willing to pay fifty thousand dollars, you have to give him the dress in return. What’s
wrong with that?” Luna replied impassively. ”Since your dress won’t be the same anymore after it’s
cleaned, what about after you’ve worn it? It’s not the same as when it was brand new anymore , isn’t it?



Now that my assistant is willing to pay its original price, what’s wrong with you taking it off and giving it to
him so that you’ll stop degrading its value?”

The color drained from Mrs. Collins’ face as soon as she heard this.

Meanwhile, Joshua furrowed his brows.

He was not familiar with Marianne at all. He knew her simply as Mrs. Collins, the servant that looked
after Fiona. He had always thought that she was a kind and understanding person just like Fiona, but…

Joshua furrowed his brows and turned around to glance at Marianne. ”Mrs. Collins, since you demanded
them to pay full price in compensation, it’s only fair they demand this in return.” He rubbed his brows in
frustration and added, ”If you think this dress won’t be the same as a new one anymore, even after it’s
cleaned, then I’ll ask Lucas to buy you a new one. Let’s just settle this right here and right now. I’m
feeling a little tired of this.”

Marianne bit down on her lip and glanced at Luna and the rest. She could not help gritting her teeth as
she said, ”But Mr. Lynch, this has nothing to do with you at all. Why would I let you buy me a new dress?”
She pointed straight at Luna. ”She should be the one to do so! ” With that, she lifted her head and gazed
down at Luna in a contemptuous manner. ”But I guess you can’t afford it anyway. That’s okay. I don’t
need you to buy me a new dress. All I ask is that you bow and apologize to me in front of Mr. Lynch, then
I’ll let this slide.”

When she heard this, Luna chuckled, arms crossed at her chest, and stared at Marianne. ”Even though
I’m having financial difficulties now, it doesn’t mean I can’t afford to buy a five-hundred-dollar dress. I’m
just not willing to, that’s all.”

”What nonsense ! ” M arianne immediately pointed at Luna and roared, ”This dress is worth fifty
thousand dollars ! M s. Blake was the one who gifted it to me! How dare you even say it’s worth five



hundred?”

She was so agitated that her entire body started shaking. ”It’s enough that you insulted me, but how can
you insult Ms. Blake, too?”

”This dress is indeed worth only five hundred dollars, ” Luna interjected coldly. ”It’s either you’re lying, or
your precious Fiona is. Either way, one of you is lying about the dress’ actual price.” Marianne was
glaring at Luna so hard that her eyeballs might fall out at any moment. ”What do you mean I ‘in lying?
That’s impossible ! Ms. Blake won’t lie to me either ! No wonder you were so unwilling to let this matter
go. You were just waiting for an opportunity to insult Ms. Blake as well! “
