Chapter 25:
It took a while before Stacy finally said, “That makes sense now. She has that supreme MCN membership because she’s clearly being financed by someone wealthy p>
Rosanna frowned, puzzled. “She’s fresh out of prison, though. How could she manage p>
Stacy scoffed. “Maybe she was already being kept before she went to prison, and now she’s just reverted to her previous lifestyle p>
Frustration gripped Rosanna, her nails digging into her flesh.
Could their ejection from the mall today have been influenced by the man backing Maia? Even Vince seemed outmatched. Who could this influential man connected to Maia possibly be?
With no possibility of returning to Huntington Mall, Rosanna and Stacy reluctantly caught a taxi to another major shopping center.
Their outing had originally been planned around visiting MCN for its latest collection, but their visit was cut short by their abrupt expulsion.
Fortunately, other malls also housed MCN stores.
Upon entering the MCN store at the new location, Rosanna and Stacy selected some items from the new collection and approached the checkout. It was then that the saleswoman informed them, “I’m sorry, ladies, but our system shows that you’re both on the blacklist. You cannot complete any purchases here at MCN p>
The saleswoman’s demeanor was noticeably unwelcoming.
It was rare for MCN to blacklist anyone unless the offenses were severe — theft, vandalism, or serious slander. These women must have committed a significant infraction to warrant such a sanction.
The saleswoman made no effort to mask her scorn as she said, “Unfortunately, we cannot serve anyone who is blacklisted. You’ll need to leave now p>

Rosanna and Stacy found themselves ejected once again.
This incident only intensified Stacy’s anger.
Rosanna, fists clenched, realized the gravity of their blacklist status at MCN.
Was this situation linked to the influential man backing Maia? His clout must be substantial. Who could this man be, who held such sway that Maia had captured his favor?
Overwhelmed with anger yet bound by her need to appear genteel, Rosanna couldn’t show her frustration openly.
Effortlessly, she mustered a carefree expression and suggested, “Let’s drop it. Their merchandise isn’t worth our concern. Maybe we’ll find something better in the other shops p>
As darkness settled, turmoil stirred within the walls of the Morgan family mansion.
Richard was pacing back and forth in the living room, wringing his hands in worry. The company’s biggest business partner had suddenly and unilaterally ended their collaboration. For the Morgan Group, the impact was nothing short of disastrous.
“Darling, could we have done something to offend them?” Sandra was perplexed, struggling to understand how their flourishing partnership had unexpectedly collapsed.
No reasons were provided by their business partner, leaving them powerless to mend the relationship.
“Miss Morgan has arrived p>
Upon Rosanna’s entry, Tricia promptly came forward to relieve her of her shopping bags and took them inside. Observing the logos on the bags, which were all from upscale brands, Richard’s expression shifted to one of concern.
The Morgan Group had just lost their biggest partner, and now bankruptcy was staring them in the face.
