When the lofty young master heard her sweet yet confident voice, he was tempted to look for the source and was immediately stunned by the extremely attractive young woman standing near him. He is used to seeing several beauties but never as beautiful as this one!
Beatrix politely asked him what is the item he is looking for but he remained standing and did not respond for a considerable amount of time. She realized that he is staring like a fool and stood so stiff like a statue.
"Young Master, are you okay?" Beatrix asked the new customer.
When the man realized his humiliating reaction, he shook his head and tried to answer her query but he stuttered instead! Beatrix gave him a gentle and understanding smile. Next, she asked him to follow her to the place where the items he is looking for are displayed.
"Young Master, if I may ask, who will be wearing the necklace? We have here different rare items but I will be able to give you nice suggestion depending on the person you are planning to give it." She enthusiastically asked the customer.
The customer was surprised again then reluctantly said. "It is... for my sister!" He nervously and uncomfortably replied because he does not have a sister. The truth is he was forced by his father to give an engagement gift to the girl he is arranged to marry but there is no way he is going to tell that annoying piece of information to this wonderful woman in front of him! No way!!!
"Oh! I think we have here what you are looking for! A pretty gift for a pretty sister!" She replied excitedly and presented the newly arrived necklaces and confidently provide detailed product knowledge. She told him that all the items she presented are unique and beautiful on its own but she specifically get one that she believed to be the most appropriate gift.

"So, what do you think, Young Master? It is so beautiful, isn't it?" She happily showed him her personally handpicked necklace.
"Yes! Absolutely beautiful!" He agreed muddily but he is looking intensely to her, not to the necklace...
"So, you will take it?" She verified.
"Yes... I will take them all..." He muddily declared, still looking at her, not a single glance at the items.
The young master purchased all the necklaces presented by Beatrix but now he was presented with two problems...
First, who will wear these pieces of jewelry since he does not have a sister, a mother, or even a grandmother?
Second, how is he going to explain to his father that he purchased several very expensive necklaces but he is not planning to give them to his betrothed girl?
But these concerns are no longer Beatrix's problem as she was praised by Young Master Aurelius for bringing in so much money on the first day of her job. Agatha glared at her fiercely. It seems that Agatha's first customer did not buy anything. Beatrix ignored her and continued with her job.
Her next customer is another young master who will also gift his sister. Beatrix was able to successfully sell several expensive bracelets to him! Again, Young Master Aurelius gave her another praise and even encouraged other employees to do the same!
Beatrix's third customer is also a young master who wants to give a gift to his sister? This young master bought several expensive hairpins!
These young masters are so sweet! They dote on their sister so much! Too bad, I do not have a generous brother like them...
Beatrix thought after her successful transactions with her first three customers that morning. She suddenly recalled that she does not have a generous brother but there are two people who generously gave her different things in the past...
