Cory's voice sounded relieved as he responded, "Ethan, where are you? I just got back in town.""I'm at the saloon." Ethan replied, mentioning the name of the saloon.Cory sounded confused as he responded, "What? That's the biggest salon in Ashville, right? So what are you doing there? Oh, don't tell me you went to deliver things there."Ethan chuckled lightly and began to explain, "I did not come to deliver anything, I just came to-"But he couldn't finish his words as the call suddenly hung up. Ethan shook his head and said to himself, "This guy doesn't even have enough money to buy airtime.""I can't be picking up cabs all the time; I should get myself a car now." Ethan muttered with a smile.He placed his phone back in his pocket and walked down the street to pick up a cab. Ethan picked up a cab and asked the driver to take him to the nearest car dealership. After a few minutes of driving, they arrived at a massive 4S shop, complete with a showroom.The place was teeming with c
There was a sudden silence in the car as it hit the wall. Some people who had just entered the showroom were shocked and started to gather around to watch. They were all muttering in shock about who would crash a brand new BMW M8.The sales lady quickly opened her eyes and got down to check the crashed car. As she got down to check the car, she saw that the front bumper was dented, the headlights were cracked, and the grille was partially detached. There were some scratches on the hood as well.As the sales lady saw the scratch on the BMW M8, her face turned red with anger. She immediately ordered Ethan to get out of the car and started yelling at him, "What have you done? Damn you, look at the scratch you made, this car is worth a fortune!"Ethan, feeling frustrated, replied, "I'll pay for the damage, just tell me how much it is."The sales lady continued to yell, "You can't afford it! You came here in a cab so you have no idea how much this car is worth. I'm going to call the police
He took a deep breath and tried to stay calm despite the humiliating words and sneers from the onlookers. He turned to the sales lady and said, "Just give me the price of the car and your payment address. I'll pay for it."The sales lady looked at him with disbelief and sneered, "You can't afford this car, even if you worked your entire life."Ethan's anger boiled over. "Would you stop wasting my time and give me the price and address?"The sales lady hesitated for a moment before finally revealing the price: "The original price of this BMW M8 is $200,000."Ethan took out his phone and opened his mobile banking app."Fine, I'll make the payment right now."The onlookers burst into laughter, thinking that Ethan was just putting on a show. They whispered among themselves, saying things like "He's just a poor boy trying to act rich" and "Who does he think he's fooling?"The sales lady rolled her eyes and handed Ethan a piece of paper with the payment address. "Go ahead, make the payment.
"Gasp!"Ethan's reply to the manager shocked the saleslady and the few people left standing around."Does this guy have a metal plate in his head? How can he speak to the manager like that?" Someone whisperedThe manager was also annoyed hearing Ethan's reply."How dare you speak to the manager like that, do you know who he is?" The saleslady asked coldly."I'm here to make a purchase, not to know the identities of people." Ethan replied calmlyThe saleslady sneered and was about to say something else, but the manager raised his hand and asked her to stop. He turned to Ethan and asked."Since you've destroyed a car here, tell me how you're going to pay for it." He asked"Bring your machine I'll swipe my card and make payments." Ethan answeredThe saleslady frowned upon hearing Ethan say he wanted to swipe a card."Manager, trust me, he'll just waste your time; he tried the same nonsense a few minutes ago and pretended to make a transfer, but he later gave an excuse."The manager's mou
Even though he couldn't do the transaction on his phone, he knew the card swipe was going to work."Ding!" The machine beeped, showing a successful transaction. Everything happened in just three seconds."What the hell?" The saleslady muttered in shock. It only took three seconds for a payment of $200,000 to show as successful. That alone made her think there was something wrong with the machine because normally it takes a minute for a transaction to be successful, and secondly, there was no way Ethan could have even $50,000 in his account.Thinking of this, she refreshed the machine twice, but to her utmost surprise, it was still the same, showing a history of a successful $200,000 transaction.Ethan, who had seen what she was doing, raised his phone and showed the screen to her."Stop refreshing the machine; it's wasting my time, the payment is successful, and this is the message." He said angrilyThe saleslady raised her head to look at Ethan's phone screen."Gasp!" A shock from n
Immediately the door was opened, her best friend Charlotte, whom Ethan made a bet with the other time at the hotel who walked in."Lily, why do you look so frustrated?" She askedLily sighed and said, "Charlotte it's just the same situation, my company is now at it's breakdown stage, I'm loosing workers and my debt keeps on increasing." She repliedCharlotte chuckled lightly before saying, "Don't tell me you're still in debt when you divorced that trash for Mr. Anderson."Hearing Charlotte mention Roger's name pissed Lily off."That bastard of a man Roger, he refused to give me the money he promised and even called me a slut," Lily said, frustration evident in her voice as she explained everything that had happened to her.Charlotte frowned sympathetically. "I didn't expect that to happen even after the sex you both had. It will be okay, Lily."Lily nodded. "I hope so.""That reminds me, Lily. Do you know who I saw at Luxuria Hotel yesterday?" Charlotte asked.Lily furrowed her brow.
Ethan was still driving when his phone started ringing again. He took a quick glance and saw that it was a call from Victoria, the manager of Aureus. He pulled over to answer the call and asked,"What's wrong, Victoria?""Master Ethan, a welcoming party has been arranged to celebrate Aureus, and specifically because of you," Victoria replied in a respectful tone.Ethan couldn't help but smile, feeling pleased with himself. "I see, and when is this party?" he asked."It's scheduled for 8 p.m. this evening, sir," Victoria replied. "It will take place at the Luxuria hotel."Ethan nodded. "Alright, I'll be there. Thank you for letting me know, Victoria," he said. "Also there's a problem with the card my dad gave me, I'm not able to make big transactions through my phone.""Master, with that one, I don't know much about it, so please, I'll suggest you contact him yourself and tell him about it." She repliedOk, thanks for telling me; I'll do that." Ethan replied before ending the call.Ju
Wow"The others around who were closer were shocked as they stopped instantly and raised their heads to look in Ethan's direction."Did I just hear that kid say he wants to purchase a house priced at $4 million?" One of the men asked another man who was beside him.The man who had been asked nodded and said,"I heard it clearly; don't worry, this kid wants to impress the saleslady; after all, he's not bad in looks."Haha, that's true; children of this generation try every skill just to get beautiful ladies."Even though their voices were a little low, Ethan and the saleslady heard it clearly. She frowned, thinking what they were saying was the truth. Ethan also looked a little bit furious because they were looking down on him, which made them think he was trying to impress someone.Just then, a middle-aged man walked in. He was wearing a tailored suit that looked like it cost more than $30,000, and beside him was a beautiful-looking lady, also around the age of 25, wearing a designer
