Chapter 155 Get Lost
“B-Boss!” The moment he barged into the manager’s office, the salesperson yelled, “We have a problem!”
“What problem?”
When he heard the salesperson’s shout, the manager, who was sitting on the sofa watching a movie, turned around in exasperation. “What are you so nervous about? You will never amount to anything that way.”
“Boss, do you think this card is real or a fake?” The salesperson carefully placed the card in the manager’s hands.
“What do you mean?” The manager casually took the card. However, the moment he saw that it was a black card, he sprang up from the sofa. “A black card? Whose is it?”
“A customer’s,” the salesperson replied softly. “It has a balance of more than ten billion. Hence, I don’t know if it’s an authentic card or not. Boss, can it be that there’s a problem with our point-of-sale system?’
“You idiot! How can a card with more than ten billion inside be a fake?” The manager slapped the salesperson on his head. “Where is he? Take me to see him right away.”
“However, he doesn’t look like someone who has so much money.” The salesperson refused to believe that the card was authentic.
How can someone that doesn’t wear more than two hundred worth of clothes have so much savings? We aren’t filming a movie here, are we?
“As if you can tell just by looking!” The manager kicked the salesperson’s stomach angrily. “Is there something f*cking wrong with your eyes? Let we warn you, if you offend him, I will personally feed you to the fishes in the Goda River before he does!”
Considering that he had worked in the luxury industry for a long time, the manager had seen many rich customers before.
The truly wealthy always liked to keep a low profile and never flaunted their wealth.
However, if one were to get on their nerves, they would be able to destroy one at a snap of their fingers.
“But–” Just when the salesperson was about to say something, the manager slapped him again. “No buts! Just shut the f*ck up and bring me to him right now.”
“Right away!” The salesperson was now terrified after a couple of slaps. Hence, he anxiously led the manager back to the storefront.
“May I know who this card belongs to?” The moment he arrived, the manager respectfully held the black card in both hands.
“It’s mine. Is there a problem?” Jonathan asked plainly.
“No, not at all. My staff is just unfamiliar with how to use the point-of-sale machine because he is still new.” Without any hesitation, the manager bowed and apologized to Jonathan, “I’m sorry to have caused you trouble. I would also like to apologize on his behalf.”
“Don’t worry about it. Just swipe the card.” Jonathan was growing impatient.
“At once!”
Picking up the card, the manager swiped it at the point-of-sale system. It then went through smoothly with a beep.
However, when he saw the string of zeroes in the card’s balance, he couldn’t help but gasp even though he was used to dealing with the wealthy.
In fact, he was so astounded that he broke into a cold sweat.
For the forty over years of his life, he had never seen so much money before.
“Sir, your card.” The manager returned Jonathan’s card with both hands. The moment he finished, Alfred’s expression drastically changed.
The card went through without a hitch? This kid is really the owner of the black card? The very next moment, terror flashed within Alfred’s eyes.
“Is there a problem with the card?” Jonathan casually asked.
“No, no.” Taken aback, the manager shook his head at once. “There’s no problem at all!”
“What are you spacing out for? Bring out the watches at once!” The manager glared fiercely at the salesperson. After that, he turned toward Jonathan with a servile expression. “Sir, if you need anything in the future, you can just give us a call, and we will send someone right to your doorstep.”
“There’s no need for that.” Jonathan shook his head, as he wasn’t interested at all. “Are the watches packed?”
“Yes, here they are.” The manager lifted the packages with both hands and handed them over to Jonathan. “I left my contact in the box. If there are any problems, feel free to give us a call at any time of the day and we will be right there for you.”
The manager couldn’t behave any more subserviently.
However, Jonathan didn’t bother to notice at all. Instead, he took Josephine’s hand and suggested, “Darling, let’s go.”
“Mmm-hmm!”
After Josephine nodded, she stepped out of the store together with Jonathan.
“Mr. Goldstein, let me walk you out.” The manager personally escorted them away. It wasn’t until both of them were out of sight that he heaved a sigh of relief.
“Boss, isn’t it just a black card? Was all that necessary?” The salesperson squirm his lips when he saw how sycophantic the manager was.
“Shut the f*ck up!”
Suddenly, the manager turned around and slapped the salesperson on his face. “Before the sun sets, you had better get the hell out of Jadeborough. Don’t ever let me see you again. Or else, I’m going to break your leg every time I do.”
“Boss, I-” Before the salesperson could say a word, the manager interrupted with a roar. “Get out!”
The salesperson trembled in response. “Boss, in that case, my salary…”
“How dare you still ask me about your salary?” With bloodshot eyes and gritted teeth, the manager snapped, “I have already shown you mercy by not feeding you to the fishes in the Goda River. And yet, you still dare demand your salary from me? Get out of my sight!”
Turning around, the salesperson fled in fear.
“Da*n it, he was almost the death of me!” Patting his chest, the manager was relieved by the close shave.
That was the power of a holder of the black card, and one who had ten billion worth of savings in their account.
Offending someone like that would only spell doom.
“Who are you?” At that moment, the manager suddenly noticed that there were still two other people in the store and was given a fright. “What are you doing here?”
He was so focused on serving Jonathan that he wasn’t even aware they were there.
“Nothing, nothing at all.”
With an awkward expression, Alfred hurriedly left with the young lady in tow.
The moment he knew that Jonathan was carrying an authentic black card, he thought he was done for.
After all, the holder of such a card could easily squash him like an insect.
Unknown to him, Jonathan never even bothered to give him a look throughout, as if he was simply invisible.
In fact, he didn’t even deserve Jonathan’s vengeance.
“Why are we leaving?” the young lady protested after she was dragged out of the store. “We haven’t bought my watch.”
“Your watch?”
Snorting in response, Alfred gave her a slap. “Do you want me to buy you a f*cking coffin instead?”
