Chapter 197: Lady Fairfax Vs Emmah
In the afternoon, a ship that had sailed from Medoris landed on the shores of Eldoria. From the ship, five
merchants carrying the latest products of their empire rode into the capital city. They reached the heart of the
city just before the sun set.
Even though the carriages with their goods were slow to arrive, the merchants themselves were quick to arrive
with their wives and children, dressed in modern silk dresses. The fashion was the sas the designs
introduced by Emmah.
They traveled through the shopping streets, spending money lavishly and attracting the attention of so many
people. When they arrived at Emmah’s shop, that was when the trouble started.
As soon as she set her eyes on them, the first question out of her mouth was where they had got their clothes
and plagiarized her designs.
"Your designs!" One of women scoffed. "In Medoris, we dress like this all the time. What's so new about silk
gipao’s and gowns? Its obviously you that copied designs from our great empire and you are now passing them
off as your own."
All the Medorian women looked down on Emmabh, staring at her with contempt. The men laughed as if she was a
clown.
The shop was filled to the brim with noble ladies, shopping for themselves and their children. In all of Eldoria,
Emmah was the only one selling such clothes and the quality was quite excellent.
However, uniqueness was her biggest selling factor. On learning that the new fashions that they had been
fighting over were not as unique as they thought, the vigor to purchase started to dampen.
"This is what happens when people have not seen the world, they spin lies and fool others." A Medorian woman
said.
Another added to that, "It is true what you say. If you travel away from your small kingdom, you will find that
such clothes have been in circulation for four months at least. If you want to copy, just copy but don’t claim
ownership." She turned around looked at the five women she had cwith. "We should go now, | cannot buy
anything from here."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWith their chins pointed sky high and disdainful looks on their faces, the women walked out of the shop, leaving
behind an uncomfortable silence that was begging to be filled with something.
For a moment, the shoppers looked at each other awkwardly as if they had no idea what to do next. Sput
down the dresses, skirts and shirts they were about to purchase, unsure of what to do with them. At the
moment, it was if they were holding hot potatoes.
Emmah had also introduced a trend that was seen in shigh end shopping boutiques back on earth, wine for
the guests while they shopped and a sitting area.
Unfortunately for her, one of her clients this evening happened to be Lady Jane Fairfax and she was already
partially intoxicated. She was the first to comment on the little incident which had just occurred.
"Lady Emmah, it seems you have been claiming to be what you are not." She stood up, swaying a bit as her feet
were not steady.
Lady Fairfax’s maids hurried to support her but she brushed them away and jutted a finger at Emmah. "You
adopted fake lady, you actually lied to us all that you invented this fashion. | cannot believe that a fake like you
turned down an offer of marriage from my son."
If Sigrid was there, perhaps she would have been kind enough to tell Lady Fairfax that the union would have
been impossible anyway as the two people were siblings that shared the sfather. But she was not and the
situation turned more tic.
To the great shock of the shoppers, Lady Fairfax splashed all the wine that was left in her glass on Emmah. The
actions made everyone gasp but at the stime, they were not very shocked. Lady Fairfax and Lady Percival
had a habit of using drinks to fight their battles.
"How dare you toy with us? Do you think that you are so great after climbing your way into the Windrider family?
You sleep in Lysander’s arms today and show your skinny thighs to prince Benjamin the next. You are just a
whore and a thief." Lady Fairfax snarled cruelly, slurring over her words.
Her words had the noble ladies gasping, young and old, they were all in awe. They were completely speechless,
frozen as well because they not decide between stopping Lady Fairfax or encouraging her. A fight between two
ladies was fun at the end of the day.
Competition in their society was high, lately, Emmah Windrider was involved with a prince. If she was brought
down, another would marry a prince. Many of the unmarried young women decided not to intervene. Some
hoped that the verbal fight would escalate into a physical one.
Emmah in the meantwas wiping the wine away from the face while making, "ah, ah, ah!!" sob like sounds
over and over.
"You are crazy." She yelled at Lady Fairfax. "How dare you do this to me? | am going to tell Ben."
"Ben, who is Ben? It must be another young man that you are fooling around with. | know women like you,
always sniffing around for titled men to sleep with and climb the social ladder. You wanted to be the crown
prince’s secondary consort but the crown princess was wise and she kicked you out of her castle. She must have
known what you are." Lady Fairfax turned her head to the right, looking around for something.
Her hands found the clothes that were nearest to her and she pulled them all down, throwing them to the ground
and then she stepped on them while people gasped even louder than before.
"You already have a fiance, that Bumblebee man but you are confusing our sons." Lady Fairfax twisted her lower
body back and fourth, trying to ruin the clothes as much as she could.
