Lord Of Succubi:Transmigrated As A Dual Cultivator In Isekai Of Magic-Chapter 382 Wood

She hated being around him but she kept a fake smile on her face so Mike's sentiments won't get hurt.

Suddenly, an attendant of the store who came greeted them, approaching with a flashy smile, "Good afternoon Sir and Mdam, how can I help you?" She was polite in her tone, and wore professional working attire according to rank. Tiffany smiled at her but minded her business. 𝘧𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝑏𝑛𝑜𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝘮

"Yes, please! Show us beautiful outfits, for the lady, of course." Mike snapped at the attendant, Catching Tiffany's attention.

But Tiffany interrupted and replied, "No, thank you! We are good." She smiled widely at the attendant, not being rude to her.

The attendant nodded her head and said, "Please, let me know if you need anything." And she left.

"I can select an outfit by myself. It's just I don't like other people putting their interests on me." Tiffany turned to Mike and said in a normal tone. Mike nodded his head in understatement and walked behind her, observing everything she put her hands on.

Mike's aura made Tiffany uncomfortable, and she felt suffocating around him. The more she walked away from him, the more kept getting closer to her. Tiffany sighed and picked a pair of pants and Mike complimented at her taste.

"These pants will suit you, Tiffany. You should try them." He thought women love compliments and tried to make Tiffany special.

"I don't like it." Tiffany put the pants down and looked for other options. She went through a few shelves and liked a few gowns and blouses. Just as she went through another shelf, she heard some noises from a distance. At first, there were some random noises of someone arguing until she heard it clearly.

The voice of a man yelling louder than expected. It seemed to have frustration covering in his voice, and it sounded aggressive too. She dismissed it, considering it a personal matter to someone, and picked another outfit from the shelf. Mike was behind her and heard the noises, too but didn't care at all.

"Sorry? For what?" The sound of the man seemed familiar to Tiffany, and she put down the outfit to check on the man.

When she walked out of the store, she spotted the man and recognised him immediately. He was Wood Klein, the eldest son of the Klein family. It did not shock Tiffany to see him yelling out loud in public and creating a scene because they knew Wood as the notorious spoiled brat of the Klein Family. He had a negative impression on the public, yet he didn't like to reconsider his choices. It wasn't the first time Tiffany saw him.

The families used to stay in contact through balls, meetings and other important celebrations, and Tiffany had seen Wood's tactic as a playboy several times. The memories of his encounter made Tiffany gag a little. Even in the local news, it made several reports and allegations against him for harassing women sexually and raping them on the regular basis. But the family held strong connections with superiors and they dropped all the charges against him. So, he was proven innocent. On the other hand, the common people cannot objectify as these kinds of people will threaten them, kill them or make their life a living hell.

"What did you say? You didn't do it?" Wood hissed at a young woman. The woman was a waitress, and she stood in front of him with her head lower on her feet. This made Tiffany feel bad for the young woman.

"Yes, Sir! You have a misunderstanding. I did not spoil your suit. I wasn't even at your table." The waitress states while defending herself.

Wood made an ugly frown on his face and grabbed the waitress's hands roughly, "So, you are saying I am lying in front of these people?" Wood made a nasty remark at the waitress, "You said that I am a liar." His voice was full of aggression, at the edge of breaking and exploding.

The waitress was shivering, but she stood her ground and defended herself. "Sir, I am not offending you or I am misleading others by saying that you are a liar. I can see your suit got spoiled by the drinks, but I didn't do it. It was not my mistake. I was taking orders from the other table…"

"And that table was adjoining mine. You bumped into me and spilled the drink on my expensive suit. Do you know how much it costs? Probably the most money you will ever see in your entire life." Wood was getting rude to the waitress and there was no shame in him. He doesn't care about the scene he was creating in the streets.

"I didn't. I wasn't standing at your side." The waitress spoke with confidence but only got harassed further.

"Do you know who I am? Bitch, you are challenging the eldest son of the Klein family. I can make you disappear into thin air without traces." He threatened her with the force of his power.

"Sir, I am being professional with you. We can sort this out inside the manager's office. Kindly lower your voice and understand the situation." The waitress was keeping her charisma and professionalism after being humiliated by a rich spoiled brat of a wealthy family.

Tiffany rolled her eyes at Wood's audacity. He loved to make fun of or bully the common people of the town because he considered everyone inferior to him. The way Wood treated the waitress made Tiffany boil her blood. Her fists curled up, and she wanted to step in the circle to stop Wood from harassing that poor waitress. Even if the suit got spoiled, Wood and his family had enough wealth from their ancestors that he could buy hundreds of such suits. It was just that he liked to bully powerless people.

The more she watched him harass the waitress, the more she wanted to help her, but she restrained herself. She can't stop Wood alone, and she doesn't want bad blood between the families for a stranger. Apart from that, The waitress wasn't the only victim of Wood's bullying. Even if Tiffany tries to help her through alternative ways, she can't do much for the poor woman. Mike approached her and put his hands on Tiffany's shoulders, bringing her back to reality because she was too lost in her thoughts to think of ways to help the waitress.

"Is there something wrong, Tiffany?" Mike asked her with concern.

Tiffany took a deep breath and said, "There are a lot of things wrong in this situation but sadly, we can't do much to change the reality. I wish I could really help that girl. He is Wood Klein, The elder son of the family and I think everyone knows why he is famous."

Mike recalled where he heard the name and realised what Tiffany was pointing out. Of course, Wood's notorious actions weren't the only thing that made him famous in the town but his ways of getting out of petty situations without shame.

"Now I remember. He is good for nothing. You shouldn't get involved in a scandal with him. It will print a negative impression on your image and your family's reputation."
