“Should I scan and pay for it?” asked Emmanuel.
The woman was startled as she thought he was joking. After all, there was a
transaction limit. Thus, Emmanuel would need to pay multiple times to
complete the purchase.
Seeing the weird expression on her face, Emmanuel asked again, “Can’t I?
Should I pay by cash then?”
When the woman saw that he was being serious, the smile on her face
stiffened.
Just as she was about to say something, Terence gave her a golden card.
When the staff saw the special card, they immediately straightened their
back. As they were about to bow, Terence waved them off and said, “I’ll pay
with it by card!”
“Yes, Mister!”
Then, the staff began the procedure.
“How can I use your money, Grandpa? I’ll pay you back!” said Emmanuel. After
all, this was his first gift to Mackenzie, so there was no way he could use
Terence’s money.
“It’s fine! I don’t mind!” Terence laughed, feeling that Emmanuel was a funny
person. Does he still not know the truth? As expected from someone who
came from the army! Terence thought. He preferred Emmanuel, who
seemed kind of goofy, rather than those cunning men that roamed the
business industry. After all, although Emmanuel was kind of dumb, he wasn’t
a bad person.
“No, I can’t do that. I’ll transfer it to you now!” Since Emmanuel had Terence’s
Apple Pay account, he immediately transferred 2,000 over.
Terence received a voice notification on his phone. ‘You received 2,000 in
your account.‘
The staff was shocked by the outcome. After all, Emmanuel had bought the
golden jade phoenix with 20 million, yet only transferred 2,000 to Terence.
However, they didn’t dare to say anything and quickly went over the
procedure. Then, they gave the item to Emmanuel.
As they left the auction, Emmanuel said to Terence, “Let’s get you back home,
Grandpa!”
At this moment, Alfred was already waiting by the door with eight
bodyguards. However, they dared not come out since Terence had yet to
give them orders. After all, even Terence had to follow Mackenzie and
pretend to be a poor person in front of Emmanuel! Despite this, they still had
to protect his safety.
However, they didn’t expect Terence would agree to Emmanuel’s proposal.
“Okay. Let’s go back home together,” said Terence.
Terence still wanted to spend time with Emmanuel, so he glanced at Alfred to
signal them not to follow them.
Realizing this, Alfred was anxious. After all, there were many people who
wanted to kidnap the wealthiest man in Yeringham. there was no way they
would let Terence go home with only Emmanuel beside him.
Just as they were about to get into their own vehicles and follow behind
Emmanuel’s car, they heard Beatrix’s voice behind them. “Are you trying to
get fired, Mr. Grishaw?”
“Ah! Ms. Beatrix!”
“Grandpa wants to talk to my brother–in–law in private, so just let him be. You
guys won’t be able to pay the price if you get exposed and ruin our family’s
plan.”
“But…”
After working for Terence for almost thirty years, Alfred was genuinely worried Content rights belong to NôvelDrama.Org.
about Terence. He wanted to protect Terence even if that meant he would be
fired! However, he also knew that Terence wanted a grandchild very badly
and things might get out of hand if they exposed Terence’s true identity.
“Don’t worry, Mr. Grishaw! Emmanuel is a strong person. Honestly, he is much
stronger than all the bodyguards behind you combined!” Beatrix said
confidently.
“I see. Alright then.” Alfred could only oblige. However, he still had his doubts
as to whether Emmanuel was as strong as Beatrix said or not.
