The Understated Dragon Lord novel Chapter 112

Daniel looked at Harper puzzledly and asked, "Aren't the T-shirts here for sale?"

"Of course, they're for sale,” Harper responded.

"Well, if it's for sale, why can't I touch it? If I don't feel the material, how will I know what it's like? I need to try it on as well!"

"What? Just touching it isn't enough, now you want to try it on? Do you realize this T-shirt costs $8,888?"

"$8,888? Do you think I can’t afford it?"

"Of course, you can't! Even if I sold a country bumpkin like you, you wouldn't fetch that much!"

"Alright! If that's what you insist on, I'll just leave." Daniel turned to walk away.

Just then, a familiar figure entered the scene.

It wasn't Jessica returning from the restroom, but Jennifer had arrived. The store sold not only men's but also women's clothing, and Jennifer was a regular customer. When Jennifer walked in, Harper immediately greeted her with effusive warmth.

"Jennifer, you look stunning today!" Harper’s flattery left Daniel speechless.

He shook his head at the peculiarities of the world—what were the chances of bumping into the same person every time he went shopping?

“He’s a thief?”

“I’m not sure whether he stole something from your store today, but I do know he’s not to be trusted. To be on the safe side, I think you should call security and have them search him. If he has stolen anything, a thorough search will reveal it."

Harper swiftly grabbed the walkie-talkie and blared into it, "Security! Security! We have a thief in the shop!"

Daniel stood with an incredulous expression. How did a simple shopping trip make him a suspect in a theft? Regardless, Daniel wasn’t interested in clarifying the situation. After all, facts don't lie.

Seeing Harper call for security, Jennifer had a wicked idea. She discreetly picked up a racy garter dress from the shelf and quietly approached Daniel from behind, slipping the dress into the paper bag he was holding.
