The manager was stunned by the man's sudden rude attitude. How could he just change within a couple of seconds? But what he didn't know was that the man in question didn't have enough money to buy the car."I am very sorry, sir. I didn't mean to be rude. It's just that this car is very expensive and we can't offer any discount payment plans right now. Trust me, it's a nice car. I'm sure you confirmed that when you tried it out."The man rolled his eyes. "Other showrooms had availability for discounts and even payment installments, but you guys don't. Why?""But I really want this car! Can't you see? I'm desperate," he added."I understand, sir," the manager said. "But bear with me, I just can't change the rules here. I'm just an employee, too. Or maybe you can take something that is more affordable?""I said I want this!" The man snarled. "Are you deaf?"His tone began to rise. "I clearly told you what I want, and here you are convincing me to take another one. Did I tell you I was bl
Robert revved the engine louder just to grab their attention. The manager's face went pale with shock as he scrunched the car, and it was a Porsche Cayenne Turbo. That was almost the same amount of money as the Audi Q8 he wanted to buy from his own showroom, but he spoiled the deal. A deep wave of regret washed over him, knowing that if he had allowed Robert, he would have made a nice sale for the day. He bowed his head in shame as Robert whined down his window. He couldn't bring himself to look at him. Meanwhile, in the group of staff standing from afar, they were in awe. Gasps escaped their lips; they couldn't believe that he would be able to purchase such an expensive car as a Porsche."I can't believe it," one of the staff members whispered. "That dude really bought that car? If only the manager had let him, we could have made a sale today, but instead, he let his pride get in the way.""Yeah, and now look, his driving away in another car is worth the exact same amount he wanted,
As Robert pulled into his driveway, he couldn't help but feel a sense of pride and fulfillment. Watching Olivia and Quinn's faces dissolve into embarrassment. He had done it. He had finally achieved his dream of owning a Porsche or one of the best sports cars he had always admired while growing up. After a few minutes, he pulled into the parking lot of a barbershop and parked his car. He wanted to shave his hair and look good for the dinner with Miss Lily. He got out of the car and walked around to the front, admiring its sleek design and shiny finish. He had always dreamed of owning a car like this, and now it was finally his to drive anywhere he wanted to.He took a deep breath, feeling the cool air fill his lungs, and smiled to himself. “I now own. Fucking Porshe!” As he walked towards the front door of the barbershop, he couldn't help but think about the looks on the faces of the salespeople at the showroom. They had doubted him and laughed at him, but he had proved them wrong a
It was 4:30 p.m. when Robert was done dressing up and strolled down the stairs; actually, he was 30 minutes late, but Miss Lily hadn't yet called him, just as she promised. He checked his watch for what felt like the hundredth time, his excitement growing with each passing minute. He had been looking forward to this dinner date with Miss Lily all week, and the time was finally here, but why hadn't she called him since 4 p.m.? He stood up from the couch and gave himself a quick once-over in the mirror. His hair was perfectly styled, his suit was pressed, and his new car was gleaming outside. He felt like a million bucks, even if he knew he wasn't taking his car; he would ride in hers.Soon, Madam President made her way down the stairs, her gaze fixed on Robert. She was just seeing his new hair style and how glowing he looked today."Son, you look so good. Where are you going?” She asked. Robert smiled. ”I have a little dinner date.” Madam President's brows furrowed in disbelief. ” W
CHAPTER. 38 Fight.As they arrived at the restaurant, Robert couldn't help but feel a sense of awe at the grandeur of the place. The exterior was sleek and modern, with a gleaming sign that read "Bistro Élégant" in elegant script. The valet parking attendant quickly took charge of the Rolls Royce, and Robert felt a little nervous about the expensive surroundings.Miss Lily, however, seemed completely at home, leading him into the restaurant with confidence. The interior was just as impressive, with soft music, dim lighting, and impeccable decor. The maître d' greeted them with a warm smile and showed them to their table by the window.As they perused the menu, Robert's eyes widened at the prices. "Wow, this place is... quite something," he said, trying to play it cool.Miss Lily laughed, her eyes sparkling. "Yes, it's one of my favorites. But don't worry, I'm treating tonight. Order whatever you like!"Robert felt a little embarrassed but was also grateful for her generosity. "Thank yo
CHAPTER 39.Cinemas.The duo continued to eat their meals in peace after the scuffle. Lily kept stealing glances at Robert, grateful that he had intervened to help her off the hands of her abusive ex-boyfriend who stalked her regularly. A few weeks back, when she had run into him at the mall, he had forced her to use her credit cards to pay for what he bought.Lily broke the silence, "What do you plan to do with the upcoming ten-day break from school next week?"Robert looked at her with raised brows, having almost forgotten about the upcoming holiday."Hmm, I really don't know. In fact, I almost forgot we have a break coming up," he responded."So your whole days are free for the week? Can you join me to my sister's birthday party?" she asked.Robert smiled. "Sure, I will. When and where do you want to go?""It's tomorrow. I'll text you the location so we can go together. I really don't want to go alone," she frowned.Noticing her expression, Robert leaned in and held her hands. "Is a
Robert stood there, his lips twitching into a wide grin as he watched her zoom off until he could no longer see the hood of her car. "She is such a delightful, simple, and kind lady!" he thought to himself.He crossed over to the park and stood there, expecting a cab to pass by so he could hop in, but for the next ten minutes, there was none in sight. Soon, he glanced up at the sky and saw that it had grown dark and rain was imminent. He quickly pulled out his phone to call Simon and ask for a ride, but the rain had already started to drizzle. Instead, he looked around and rushed into a hotel.He took a deep breath, feeling a sense of relief wash over him.As he entered the hotel lobby, he was promptly greeted by the receptionist, a friendly-looking woman with a warm smile. "Good evening, sir. Welcome to the Santaro Hotel!" she said.Robert responded with a soft smile."Sir, how can we assist you? Do you need a room for the night?" she asked.Robert smiled. "Yes, I need a room for the
CHAPTER.41. Olivia's face went pale with shock as she gasped, "Owen, look!"Owen, still distracted by his phone, didn't bother to look up. "What's up, Liv?"She nudged him. "Look over there by the door - it's Robert!"The name struck a chord in him, and he quickly looked around. "Where? Where is he?"He scanned the room and when he finally spotted Robert, he couldn't help but chuckle. "What's he doing here?"Olivia whispered, "I have no idea, but this hotel is super expensive. What could he be doing here?"Owen shrugged. "Maybe he's trying to impress someone, as he usually does, or maybe someone brought him here."Olivia was skeptical about Robert impressing someone. She turned to look at Robert and asked, "Impress someone? With what money? He fakes everything; he's always broke!"Owen laughed. "Who knows? Maybe he's got a sugar mama footing his bills."Olivia burst out laughing. "Oh, Owen, you're so ridiculous! But seriously, what do you think he's doing?"He couldn't help but glare
