After pondering it, Mat reached out his hand to Azalea. “Where is the card? Let me see it.”
“I don’t have it. I returned it.” Azalea shook her head and spoke.
“Hmph! Why did you return it?” Mae paused for a moment before asking again, “Was there money on the card?” She was clearly very concerned about the answer.
Azalea said as she lifted her head, “There was.”
“There was a million dollars.”
Just as Azalea finished speaking, Mae burst into laughter and said, “Are you telling me that beggar has money? Not bad, he saved a hundred dollars!”
“Mom, I said a million dollars, not a hundred!” Azalea shook her head as she repeated.
“What?” Mae’s laughter abruptly stopped, and she gave Azalea an incredulous look.
“A million? Did you say he has a million dollars?”
When Ma
Christian had told no one about this private matter. Every time he received treatment for his syphilis, he did it in another city far from the city. He had too many acquaintances here, and he found it embarrassing to tell other people about his illness. When he consulted Scott, he had put his last hope in alternative medicine.The Kane family was in the herbal medicine business, and they knew many renowned alternative medicine doctors. Even when consulting Mr. Kane, Christian did not reveal his true condition. He did not expect Gilbert to deduce his condition even before saying anything. That made Christian feel extremely touched and excited. Could there be a cure for him?“Mr. Huxley, you must help me!”At that moment, Christian revered Gilbert. The way Gilbert appeared to be young before did not completely convince him. Now, he no longer dared to have any contempt.“Mr. Huxley, you know that I have relationships with a lot of women.” Should this illness remain untreated, I will take
Several black-suited bodyguards looked at Christian and asked him, “Mr. Gerald Luiz, are you really letting him go just like that? No one has dared to be so arrogant with you.”Christian’s expression was incredibly stern. He waved his hand to signal everyone to leave. After that, he took out his phone and called Scott.Christian immediately greeted Scott once the call connected. “Hello, Mr. Kane. It’s me, Christian.”How was the conversation with Mr. Huxley? I’ll finish things here and be there immediately. In which room should we meet at the Dragon Breath Hotel? Scott’s voice came through on the other end of the call. He seemed busy with something.Mr. Kane, didn’t you say that Gilbert Huxley is a capable doctor? Why did he say he couldn’t cure my illness? Christian grated his teeth as he complained.“Haha...” Scott laughed. Whether Mr. Huxley can cure your illness is unknown, but if he can’t, no one can. Scott sounded very confident.Christian couldn’t help but feel surprised. Could
When Gilbert heard Mae’s question, he looked at Azalea. Azalea was a little embarrassed and could only lower her head. After all, she was the one who told Mae about this matter, which made her seem like she had loose lips.“I’m asking you a question. Why are you looking at Azalea?” Mae frowned slightly and continued in an unpleasant tone, “Do you have a million dollars or not?” Gilbert nodded slightly. “Yes.” Gilbert’s response surprised Mae. She didn’t expect him to admit it.“Where is it? Show me.” Mae still seemed doubtful. Could Gilbert, a disabled person, really have a million dollars? She thought, “He shouldn’t be able to earn a million dollars even if he worked himself to death!”“Mom, I’ve already seen Gilbert’s bank transaction text message,” Azalea scowled, gently reprimanding. “Why don’t you believe him yet?” Besides, Gilbert’s money is his private matter, so there’s no need to show it to us, right?”Mae replied, “Hmph! Keep quiet—this is not the time to take part!” She g
Gilbert, a disabled man, was poor and lacked the funds to take the bus. It was a surprise for Azalea to hear him say that he wanted to buy a new car.“Maybe... I suppose?”Azalea was also unsure.If Gilbert had a million dollars in his account, buying a car wouldn’t be difficult for him.“A new car... Who’s going to pay for it?” Mae was surprised for a moment before asking again, “I hope he’s not asking you to pay for the car he plans to buy, right?”Azalea furrowed her brow slightly when she heard Mae’s doubts. However, she replied softly, “He will probably pay for it himself.”At the moment, he didn’t have the money to buy a new car.Over the past two years, he has used the rest of his income to take Gilbert to the doctor, besides spending it on essential needs.Azalea had no money to her name.“That’s nonsense! If he could afford a car, pigs would fly!”Mae still didn’t believe in Gilbert.“Mom, have you forgotten what you promised me before?” Azalea furrowed her brow slightly and
Harry would have loved to know more about the high-end luxury cars from Bentley, but he could only search for photos and specifications on the internet. So, ultimately, he wouldn’t be able to experience it firsthand. But could a disabled person afford a Bentley?Harry thought it must be a joke.Mae and Azalea were also stunned when they heard the car model. Was Gilbert joking with everyone? He said it so casually that it almost seemed like Bentleys were common cars seen everywhere on the streets. Even a casual glance at the city would reveal a scarcity of luxury cars, such as the Bentley. However, Diana just scoffed. Looking at her classmate, she mocked, “Haha! Azalea, it seems like your fiancé is not only disabled but also a fool. Is his illness acting up again?” Azalea frowned. She replied softly, “Gilbert is not a fool.”Diana smirked and asked, “Then why does he like to talk nonsense?” Harry chimed in with an equally unpleasant smile, “Darling, after all, it’s not illegal to boast
“Bring your manager here! Is this the treatment I get for paying in full?” When he heard that, Harry yelled furiously.“Let me guess. You’ve never bought a car before, have you?” Gilbert suddenly spoke in a calm tone, with a hint of mockery in his eyes.“What do you mean by that?” Harry’s face reddened as he became even more angry.Gilbert had a bitter smile on his face. Paying in installments would end up costing him a bit more money, but it would be worth it if it meant upsetting Harry.Both Harry and Diana were incredibly furious. Did an outsider snatch the car they were interested in? They couldn’t bear that at all.“Sally, what’s going on?”At that moment, a middle-aged man came out of the store.That’s right, Mr. Zayne. These two customers are interested in the same car. One of them wants to pay in full, while this man here paid in installments. That’s how the dispute started.The saleswoman hurried to inform the middle-aged man of everything. The middle-aged man frowned. Natura
The night before, all the dealership employees, including those who should have already been off work, received a personal call from their boss. All employees were mobilized for overtime. They had to completely clean the dealership. Each of the displayed cars had to be spotless.There was only one reason for this: Someone had ordered a high-end Bentley Bentayga.The official recommended sale price was six hundred and twenty thousand dollars! However, that wasn't the primary focus.After all, even though few people in the city could afford to buy a luxury Bentley car, the number was not zero. The most important thing was that Mr. Huxley was someone with incredibly extraordinary experience.The boss knew not to neglect Mr. Huxley’s demands. That’s why all the employees there knew that a certain Mr. Huxley would be there today.However, they did not expect Mr. Huxley to appear in a wheelchair. Still, no one dared to look down on him.Even though Gilbert was disabled, he could afford a Be
The car design looked incredibly majestic. It resembled a fierce tiger ready to pounce.The difference between a luxury car and a regular car was clear at first glance. Whether it was the car design or the paint job, every detail was incomparable.The car exuded an incredibly luxurious and noble aura at a single glance. Luxury, nobility—it was impressive enough to stun everyone!“Wow!”Azalea was stunned. She couldn’t help but let out an exclamation, although immediately after, she covered her lips with her hand.“Oh, my God! It’s really a Bentley!” Mae exclaimed with wide eyes.At that moment, her vanity was satisfied.The surrounding employees looked at Azalea with admiration.At that moment, Azalea and the obsidian-black Bentley were the most dazzling presence in the dealership.Azalea had a superb figure. Besides that, her appearance was top-notch. Standing next to the car, she looked like a model.The dealership manager couldn’t resist taking a picture with his phone. He wanted i
