"Oh, Mindy, fancy seeing you here," Chloe exclaimed, her tone dripping with insincere surprise. "Are you lost? This isn't the bargain bin section, you know."
Mindy, determined not to let Chloe's provocations ruin her day, offered a polite smile. "We're just looking around. No harm in that."
Chloe's friends exchanged glances, reveling in the anticipated drama. Chloe, however, continued her taunting, "Looking around? In a place like this? My, my, you do have big dreams, don't you?"
Emily, sensing the tension, stood by Mindy's side, ready to lend support. The upscale boutique had become a battleground of social dynamics, where the clash between worlds was as palpable as the shimmering fabrics that surrounded them.
Chloe's laughter echoed through the high-end boutique, a piercing contrast to the elegant ambiance. Mindy, though visibly uncomfortable, held her ground, refusing to let Chloe's mockery diminish her spirit.
