The Madam was stunned at the audacity Yoko Tsurugi showed in her shop.
Not only was she twisting everything the Madam said, but she was also doing it in a way that could cause misunderstandings. This was not a good thing for the madam.
She opened her mouth to correct Yoko, but then Sakura joined in.
"Well, I have to say that this dress looks dashing on you cousin. I think that we should buy it as it is as well. I am sure no one would dare criticize the unique and beautiful design madam came up with, right?"
This was too much pressure for the madam.
If she chose to say anything negative, her store's reputation would fall. But saying anything positive would deprive her of the chance to find some good gossip.
But in the end, the allure of gossip was not as strong as Madam feared it to be. She was able to prioritize her carrier and take a step back from the pair in front of her.
