The Billionaire Forgotten Heir

Chapter seven

Griffin was shocked. He was stunned and he forgot to blink for some minutes. This was the same card he used to pay his debt at the bank. Why was it not working now?

 " Seeing your shocked face makes me want to push you. You're acting like you are surprised when you already know your card is fake?" Amy inquired before turning to face the young man. 

   " You, didn't I tell you not to waste your time? See what you've caused yourself now. Hehehe!" Amy mocked and laughed. She was thrilled. 

  This was exactly what she wanted! It wouldn't have been right if Griffin was able to pay but she believed that was impossible anyway!

    " How can a pauper like you buy a car?" She berated. 

  The pot bellied man also laughed while holding his big belly. His rounded face pulled apart as he opened his mouth and laughed out loud! 

   " You are really shameless. You should have left when you were given the chance but you have to just disgrace yourself like this? What a pity!" The man said with mockery filled voice before he burst out laughing again. 

  Griffin turned his head to look at the duo. He gritted his teeth and clenched his fist. His anger was boundless and his face was an evidence to that. 

   " What is all these? This was the same card I used to pay my debt in the bank just now. How could it not work again? Is something wrong with your machine?" He tried to talk it out. 

   " It's not possible that it's the card problem because I just paid with it at the bank. Again, I'm sure Emily wouldn't block it either because they want me home. So, what's the problem? Why is it not working here?" He questioned himself and brought out his phone. 

   " Maybe I should make enquiry from the bank manager. He should be able to tell me some things I don't know." He told himself inwardly. 

    " What do you want to do?" Amy saw him bring out his phone and she was irritated! " What prank are you trying to play again? We've just gotten you red handed and you should be able to know that it's right time for you to get the hell out of this place because you just don't fit here!" Amy ridiculed him with a smug on her face. 

  She walked over to him and pushed him. " Get the hell out of here! Leave this place right now before we get you arrested! Leave this place right away!" She started yelling. 

   " What's that?" 

   Amy was still pushing Griffin when a voice came from a inner room and a door opened, revealing a middle aged man in suit. 

   " What's the noise all about, Amy? I've been hearing your voice from my office for a while now." The man asked, showing his anger unrestrained as he glared at Amy. 

  Amy rushed over to the man. " Sir, it's this wretched guy. He has no money but he is here pricing a car and even acting as if he is rich when he can't even afford three meals a day." She explained. 

   " I told him to leave so that other customers can be carefully attended to but he refused. He seems to be here on a mission." She added, making sure her voice was full of conviction. 

  The man listened carefully and nodded her head. " Is that true?" He asked and Amy nodded her head. 

   " Yes Sir. I will suggest we block him from entering here ever again in his life. Someone like him is a terrible liar and we don't know what trouble he might cause us in the future if we don't uproot him now. " She suggested. 

   The middle aged man was quiet for a while, thinking of what to do.  Everything Amy said was true and he believed a poor person had no right to enter their building when they can't even afford their three meals a day. 

  " Erm... Mister.  I will suggest you..." He stopped amidst his words when his eyes caught a sight of something.  

  He rushed over to the young man and grabbed his hand to look at the card and turned back to face Griffin. " Did you try paying with this card?" He asked and Griffin nodded, causing the man's face to change drastically. 

   " I used it in the bank earlier and I thought..."

   " Shut up!" Amy yelled! " You should get the hell out of here!" She added as she immediately called the Securities. 

   " Get this man out of here. He is too filthy to be here and he is already affecting the sales. Throw him out and make sure to watch your hand immediately after you do that because I'm sure he is already infected with a very serious disease. " She ordered and berated Griffin even more.  

   She turned to face Griffin. " Take this thing out right away!" She hollered and gritted her teeth in anger. " He shouldn't be..."

   Paaa!

   A very loud slap landed on her cheeks and she was shocked! She turned her head in search of who slapped her but her eyes widened when she realized it was her boss! His hand was still in the air and the look in his eyes made it known that he would slap her again!

    " Sir... Why... why..." She couldn't utter a word as her words got lost in her belly. 

  The manager turned around and bowed respectfully at Griffin.  " Please come with me. " he said. He stretched his hands and collected the card as if it was a priceless egg. " Take this man to the VIP room." He said as he turned to face one of his workers. 

    " Please Sir, Can you follow her? She will take you to the VIP room." He said and bowed again before changing his direction, about to leave the room. 

   Everyone hearing them were shocked! They couldn't believe their ears and some of them thought they heard wrong until they saw Griffin walked toward the VIP room with one of them. 

  The manager came out of his office in seconds and walked toward the VIP room, still with the card in his hands. 

   He had a fulfilled look on his face as if he just achieved something grand and he couldn't stop smiling from ear to ear as he made his way toward the VIP room. 

   " Let's start. " He mumbled as he entered the room and walked toward the machine that was placed in the room. This one was a bit different from the one the guy used earlier and a bit bigger too. 

  He inserted the card and made the withdrawal. " Successful!" He cheered as he removed the card. The money had been paid in seconds and the card was out!

  " I just withdrew 1 million dollars from there. " The man said to himself as he stared at the black card with admiration in his eyes. 

   Griffin smiled and let out a deep breathe " I've been very scared, thinking the card has been blocked but that seems to not be the case. Thank goodness!" He said inwardly. 

  " Your card, Sir." The man handed the card back to him respectfully.

   Griffin collected his card and stood up. " Can I go out now?" He asked the man.

  " Of course, Sir. " The middle aged man replied with a polite smile on his face. 

   Griffin nodded his head and walked out of the room while the manager followed behind. 

   " He must have been kicked out. The manager was fooled by him at first. " Amy mocked and laughed. She walked toward them with the aim of hearing what the manager was saying to him so that she could laugh more. 

   " I'm sorry sir. I'm very sorry for what my workers did and I hope you won't hold this against us. " The manager apologized and Amy happened to hear it!
