Chapter 14 Poor People Have No Sense Of Existence

The staff looked around for another five minutes but failed to find her so-calledbrother.

‘Does being poor really make me invisible? These people are acting like I’mnot

even standing here,’ Trevor sighed and thought to himself as everyone ignored him. Finally, he decided to not care about what everyone around himmight think andstrode straight to Evie. He raised his chin and said, “Sister, Dad asked me tocometo you to sign the contract.” As soon as Trevor finished speaking, the room fell silent. All heads turned tohim, and everyone stared at him with wide eyes. “What’s wrong with this guy? Is he insane? How could he come up to Evie andclaim that he was her brother?”

“Yes, you’re right. He doesn’t even look the part. His clothes are valued less thanone hundred dollars. How could someone like him be related to Miss Sanderson?”Everyone talked about Trevor as if he was not there to hear what they were

saying. They eyed him with disbelief and even disdain. Suddenly it dawned on them that Trevor was the only stranger in the room. Everyone held their breaths and pricked up their ears. They waited for Evie torespond. “Why didn’t you call me when you arrived, Trevor?” The coldness on Evie’s face turned into a gentle smile. All the people present heaved a collective sigh of relief and a little bit of surprise. Seeing Evie with such a lovely, tranquil expression on her face was a rare sight. It

was like drinking up the first blows of the spring breeze. “How… How could it be possible?” Henson was confused. Without taking a look at Henson, Trevor said to Evie, “Sister, is this your pursuer?

I don’t think he is a good candidate. He wanted to hit me just now.”

“Mr. Sanderson, I…” Hearing this, Henson hurriedly attempted to explain. Evie snapped, “Enough! Henson, I’m not an unreasonable person. If you want torenew the contract with me, you have to make me happy first.”

“Just tell me what you want me to do, Miss Sanderson, and I’ll do it,” Hensonreplied immediately and took a deep breath. The gentle look on Evie’s face slowly melted away, and a knowing smile curledher lips. She looked like a queen who was about to squash on

e of her enemies under her heel. She pointed at the Tesla car parked not far away and said softly, “Your car is

parked at the door. It blocked my way here to find my brother.” Henson pressed his lips together in a thin line. After hesitating for a long time, hegritted his teeth and said, “Since it inconvenienced you, I’ll smash it!” He strode toward his car and picked up a big stick on the way. He smashed the windshield with the stick. After the first strike, Henson chanced a glance at Evie and realized that she hadno intention of stopping him. He smashed the windshield once again. Fifteen minutes of non-stop hits later, the elegantly shaped and fashionableluxury car was badly totaled. Panting and sweating all over, Henson went back to the reception hall and saidtoEvie, “Are you satisfied, Miss Sanderson?”

“No, I’m afraid not. You almost kicked my brother just now.” Evie’s face remainedunchanged, but her tone grew even colder. “I… I see.” Henson’s throat bobbed, and color gradually drained from his face. He closedhiseyes. He took a deep breath. Then, he raised the stick he was holding and struck his own leg with it. He tried to bite down his screams but miserably failed.

Everyone present was stunned into complete silence. Some gasped and put their hands over their chests. They were not expectingHenson to do what he just did. “How about now?” Henson asked in a voice trembling with pain. Evie did not answer. She just looked at Trevor and asked, “Is that enough for you, brother?” Trevor whipped his head toward his sister. He was not expecting her to address

him. Evie was usually quiet at home, but she could be so domineering in front of her

people and arrogant outsiders. Without thinking too much, Trevor quickly answered, “Yes, that’s quite enough.”Hearing this, Evie smiled. She took out her checkbook and began writing. “Here’s a check for two million dollars. Buy yourself a new car, Mr. Cairon.” After saying that, Evie turned around and said to a security guard, “You, get

someone to drive Mr. Cairon home. As for the cooperation, Mr. Cairon, you cantalk to my brother after your leg recovers.”

My Sudden Rich Life by RickieAppiahChapter 15

Chapter 15 Welcome, Mr. Sanderson

“Evie, don’t go too far!” Henson shouted through gritted teeth. He was the eldest son of the Caironfamily. Nobody dared to provoke him just like Evie did. His car had been totaled, and his leg was injured. However, he still had not hadachance to discuss the cooperation. “Security, see him out!” Evie commanded coldly. With her tall figure and sharp features, she was likeanice queen. The security guard grabbed a wheelchair from the side, dragged Henson ontoit, and pushed him out of the Willard Villa. “I can walk by myself!” Henson cried out in grief and indignation while being wheeled out. He had just

been humiliated. Not to mention, people were staring at him with a snicker. The heir of the Sen Tale Group was bullied. How pathetic.

‘I wish I could be as domineering as my sister one day,’ Trevor thought to himself. At that moment, Evie turned to him and asked, “Brother, are you okay?” Her

demeanor changed in an instant when she talked to him. She was gentler andaffectionate, unlike her usual temperament that was cold and unforgiving. The staff around was astonished by her attitude. This was the first time they hadseen Evie like this. “I’m okay.” Trevor shook his head and added, “Sorry for the trouble, sister.”

“It’s okay. Dad should’ve told you that he’s giving you not only the Willard Villabut also all the shops on this commercial street. Everything you see is ownedbyour family.” With a smile on her face, Evie waved her hand, and her female secretary cameupto her.

“Gather all the staff in the manor for me,” Evie ordered. The secretary nodded in response. Five minutes later, more than a thousand staff of the manor gathered in thevast

golf course. They all wore the same black uniform, which made the course lookblack instead of green. They were lined in the golf course and waited for what Evie had to say. With Trevor next to her, Evie stood before them and announced, “All of you, listen. From now on, my brother, Trevor Sanderson, will be the boss of the Wi

llard Villa!” All the staff, including security guards and managers, bowed respectfully uponhearing Evie’s announcement. “Welcome, Mr. Sanderson!” they shouted in unison. Their voice was loud and clear, and it echoed throughout the golf course. Not knowing what to do, Trevor just stood there in a daze.

‘Is this the feeling of being the boss? Everyone respects you,’ he thought tohimself, in awe. In the crowd, the face of the receptionist who had just humiliated himturnedghastly pale. “Brother, an employee reported to me that the receptionist in the lobby

disrespected you,” Evie said with implication. Everyone held their breath and stared at Trevor, wondering what he woulddonext. Apart from respect, there was fear in their eyes. If the boss changed, who knew if he would change all the employees?

The salary here in the Willard Villa was not only competitive, but it also camewith benefits. Many people were dying to work there.

‘I’m the boss now. What should I handle this issue? I don’t know what to do.’ Trevor was anxious as all eyes were on him. He did not even know where toplacehis hands.

Meanwhile, the said receptionist was trembling like a leaf. All of a sudden, she rushed towards Trevor and stood timidly in front of him. Shelowered her head and bit her lip in shame. To everyone’s surprise, she pulled down her collar as if to beg, revealing a largepart of her chest, and looked up at Trevor apologetically. Fear was written all

over her face, which made everyone pity her. Trevor’s face flushed. Never in his life had a girl approached him. But then, the receptionist’s attitude crossed his mind, and he felt disdainful. ‘TheWillard Villa is now mine. If the employees, even one of them, disrespect a guest

in the future, the reputation of the manor will be affected.’ At the thought of this, Trevor recalled the boss’s gesture he had seen on TV. He cleared his throat and said in a deep voice, “I want to ask you something. Is

this how you treat the guests?”

My Sudden Rich Life

Chapter 16 French Restaurant “Mr. Sanderson, I was wrong. I shouldn‘t have looked down upon you.” The receptionist gritted her teeth and, all of a sudden, slapped herself hard across the

face several times. “I was blind. I didn‘t recognize you. I deserve this.” The sound of her slapping echoed in the vast golf course. Everyone stared at her dreadfully, not a hint of sympathy on their faces.

‘What? Can I do something like that?‘ Trevor asked himself. He looked confused, but he was actually more shocked. He looked at his palm and thought, ‘Is it because of the power I have now?‘ A few moments later, the receptionist‘s face had become red and swollen. Bloodstarted oozing from the corner of her mouth, and yet she still did not stop. Trevor‘s heart

sank to see her like this. He did not want to push her to the edge, so he finally decided to stop her. “Forget it. Let bygones be bygones. Just don‘t make the samemistake again.”

“Thank you, Mr. Sanderson. I assure you, that won‘t happen again.” The

receptionist was heavily indebted to Trevor. She did not stop apologizing tohimuntil she was out of breath. At that moment, she fell onto her knees and gaspedf

or breath. Evie nodded slightly, satisfied with how Trevor‘s handled the issue. Well, even if he spared the receptionist, she would punish her for him. 2

As a boss, Trevor had to learn how to establish his authority in front of his subordinates. Now that the receptionist had been punished, the crowd dispersed and carriedonwith their duties.

It was now time for lunch. Evie invited Trevor to the best restaurant in the manor. They rode a yacht to the lake island within the manor‘s property. Along the way, Trevor saw two dolphins jump out of the water and followthem. During this time, Evie, who was standing on the deck, introduced to Trevor thepl

aces he had not seen before. There were sharks in the aquarium, leopards in the zoo, and

penguins and polar bears in the Arctic club. Trevor was in awe upon hearing this. Thirty minutes later, the two of them finally arrived at the French restaurant ont

he island. A single floor tile in this restaurant was worth over a hundred dollars, and it was

undeniably exquisite. What was more, all the chefs here were Michelin 3–star chefs. All the ingredients used in every meal were fresh. Even the Charollais beef was

air–freighted from France. Only the best and the most tender part of the beef was served to the customers. It could be said that this was the best restaurant in the Willard Villa. People

were not allowed to go to this place without a Diamond VIP membership card. The membership in the Willard Villa had four levels, namely Silver, Gold, Diamond, and Supreme. The higher the membership level, the more perks the

members would receive. Only Diamond members were allowed to enjoy this French restaurant. The most basic card, the Silver card, was not something one could underestimate. This card alone was worth hundreds of millions of dollars. Only those who hadspent more than five million dollars every

year could possess this. And only those who had spent tens of billions of dollars

were eligible to have the Gold and Diamond card

As for the Supreme card, only a few had

seen it. Some even suspected that the Willard Villa had only released one.

A single

meal in this restaurant cost at least ten thousand dollars. Ordinary people couldnot afford it. “Trevor, when you were living poorly back then, I didn‘t treat you to anythinggood because of the family rules. But today, I will invite you to a good lunch!” Evie excitedly said while pulling Trevor to a chair. Less than ten minutes after they had given their orders, the waiters began serving their meals. French dishes were served one after another. Every one of them was superb. One of them was the most famous Charollais steak. A carrot was carved into a rose shape, and the steak was in the middle. Trevor was stunned. “Evie, isn‘t this a little too overkill? Look, the plate is big, but there‘s only a small piece of meat in the middle. Sorry, but this piece of meat

won‘t be enough to satisfy me.”

“It‘s okay. Just order another one.” With a smile, Evie taught her brother howtoeat steak with a knife and fork. As soon as Trevor finished the plate, another dish was served. However, it was like the first one where the plate was big, yet the food was small. After eating more than ten orders of food, Trevor still was not satisfied. Unablet

o stand it anymore, he asked, “Evie, do they have rice? I think only a share of ricecould make me satiated.”

Chapter 17 Patek Philippe Watch

After hearing Trevor‘s words, Evie burst into laughter before she glanced at himt

enderly and said, “Trevor, this is a French restaurant, so you won‘t find any ricehere.”

“Alas, I really don‘t understand the lives of the wealthy,” Trevor said with a heavysigh, feeling helpless. “You will soon get used to it. By the way, I

still haven‘t given you a birthday present!” Saying that, she opened her latest LV handbag, and took out a box that was about the size of her palm. “This is a customized Patek Philippe watch. I

hired someone to specifically design it for you, and don‘t worry, it‘s not tooexpensive. It only worth five hundred thousand dollars.” With a gentle smile, Evie handed the box to him. “Five hundred thousand! And you said it‘s not expensive? Dear sis, you‘re scaringme to death!” Trevor‘s heart raced, but he had to keep calm because he did not want his sister t

o look down upon him. He took the gift box and opened it. Inside it was a delicate wrist watch.

‘This damn thing costs five hundred thousand dollars? That‘s unbelievable! Trevor thought to himself. After they had lunch, he

rested for a while in the manor before he decided to go home. “Trevor, would you like me to drive you?” Evie asked

Shaking his head, he replied, “No, I can go on my own, so why don‘t you carry onwith your work?” Once people found out that he was wealthy, their attitudes toward himhadchanged a lot, so he was unable to figure out their true intentions.

“Maybe, it is only possible to see their true colors when one is poor.‘ He actually wanted to live a

very normal and peaceful life, and did not want people to ingratiate themselves

with him for the sake of his wealth. After saying goodbye to his sister, Trevor walked out of the Willard

Villa and to the commercial street. It was a place filled with hip youngsters and bosses. He had been a little

self–abased in the past, but now, he owned all of the businesses in the commerci

al street. “I can‘t be so self–abased anymore. I have to slowly adapt to the wealthy lifestyle! ” Trevor said to himself with determination. 1

That moment, he heard a familiar voice calling his name from behind him. “Trevor. What are you doing here?” He looked back and saw many of his acquaintances. Bessie, Corrie, Bernard, and his sidekicks were about to walk into the Kisas Tenni

s Club. “Trevor! It‘s you, isn‘t it? Why didn‘t you reply to my texts?” Bessie

seemed a little angry, because she had texted him a few hours ago, trying toapol

ogize to him, but he had not replied her. And now, he was caught wanderingthestreets. Feeling awkward, Trevor scratched his head. In fact, it was not that he had not wanted to text her back. It

was just that when he was about to reply her, his father had called him, so hehadforgotten to reply to her. Moreover, Bessie was also just pretending to be mad at him. She knewthat Trevor must have felt sad when he was questioned by everyone in the hotel, so shesai

d, “We‘re going to play tennis now, so why don‘t you join us?” But the next second, Bernard sneered, “Miss Taylor, a loser like himdoesn‘t deserve to play with us.”

Although Corrie remained silent, even her eyes were filled with contempt as shel

ooked at Trevor. She just did not want to be around him. Bessie rolled her eyes at them, and said, “Enough, Bernard!” She

was normally a very easy–going person, but it wasn‘t right for Bernard to goupagainst the coach like that. Turning towards the entrance, Bernard waved and shouted, “Grant, here!” Everyone turned to look at the man he was calling out to

Grant Norris was a handsome young man dressed in an Armani suit. Seeing them, he walked over to them with a warm smile. The moment he saw Bessie, his eyes lit up. He bowed like a gentleman and smiled. “Miss Taylor, I‘ve already booked tennis courts for us. We can go in now.” Bessie also gave him a polite smile

and nodded. Then, everyone followed Grant into the tennis club.

My Sudden Rich Life by RickieAppiahChapter 18

Chapter 18 You Were A Poor Guy

Along the way, Grant was very enthusiastic toward Bessie. Obviously, he was tryi

ng to please her. Bernard said to Trevor, “This is Grant, son of Ensfield Hotel‘s owner in this city. If

it weren‘t for him, you wouldn‘t be able to gain entrance to this club.” Grant looked at Trevor up and down and asked, “Who‘s this?”

“Trevor Sanderson, the poor guy who found his girlfriend making out with Dennis. ”

“Oh, that‘s you? I‘ve heard a lot about you, man,” Grant sneered and then burst into laughter. “What‘s that supposed to mean?” Trevor asked, clenching his fists. He was getting a little tired of tolerating their implied insults. Grant was about to mock Trevor more, but Bessie stopped him. “That‘s enough. Are you really going to snipe at each other on my birthday?”

“You‘re right, Miss Taylor. This is your day. My apologies. Let‘s go inside andplaytennis.” Grant flashed Trevor one last condescending look and then ushered everyoneint

o the exclusive tennis club. Trevor also decided to bite down his anger. He didnot

want to embarrass Bessie, but he kept in mind how Grant treated him. They walked into the tennis club, which was luxuriously decorated, and all thepeople inside were well–dressed. It was obviously a place where the rich workedout and hung out. With a deeply impressed look on her face, Corrie commented, “I heard that theKi

sas Tennis Club is a private club for

the super wealthy. Everything inside is very expensive, and only people withamembership card are allowed to gain entrance.”

“It‘s not very expensive. I rented two top –grade open–air tennis courts, andit only cost me twenty thousand dollars,” Grant said in a tone that made twenty thousand dollars sound like a little

bowl of peanuts.

“Wow, Grant! You really are generous!” one of Bernard‘s friends exclaimed. Hearing what Grant said, Corrie was in awe and liked him even more. He was rich, giving, and handsome. Who would not like someone like that?

Seeing that everyone was flattering Grant, Trevor kept his silence. He thought, ‘The industries around the manor are all owned by the my family. I can also gainent

rance into this club if I just tell my sister that I want in.‘ But Trevor did not really plan to do that. He just followed the crowd. Bernard said to the attendant at the front desk, “Hi. Can we please have fivefamous–brand tennis rackets, the latest Wilson? And one

cheap racket for a poor guy?

Wilson was a famous tennis racket brand in the world, which many Olympic champions used and endorsed. Every racket was processed by the most intricate manufacturing machinery and came out with excellent quality. Their designs weregrand and high end and, therefore, pricey. On the other hand, the cheap racket was rather simple and a common iteminthe market. “Yes, sir. Please wait a moment.” Before leaving to grant Bernard‘s request, the attendant glanced at Trevor withcontempt in her eyes. Then, she came back with the rackets and handed the cheapone to Trevor. “You don‘t mind a cheap racket, do you, Trevor? I mean, we can only get youone that‘s fit for you. After all, we already let you come along with us out of thekindness of our hearts.” Bernard smirked and handed the attendant a credit card. The branded rackets cost him ten thousand dollars, two thousand for each one. The cheap one cost him two hundred. Trevor gritted his teeth and

gripped the cheap racket they gave him. He was beginning to lose his temper, but

he could not show it. He did not want to lose

his cool in front of Bessie. Bernard winked at Grant, and Grant immediately under

stood. Grant turned to Trevor and said, “Trevor, Bernard and I have already paid for the rackets and the entrance. Now be a man and treat us to something. How about some water?”

“Six bottles of water, please.”

Trevor knew Bernard and Grant‘s intention. They wanted him to spend more than he could, but it was only six bottles of water. He could afford those for sure. “Sir, it‘s one thousand and two hundred dollars in total. Would you like to pay by card or by cash?” The attendant took six

bottles of water out of the freezer and set them on the counter. Trevor could not believe what

he just heard. How could a bottle of water cost two hundred dollars? That was more expensive than oil. No wonder Grant asked him to buy water for everyone. Seeing the awful, humiliated look on Trevor‘s face, Bessie felt sorry for him. She stepped forward and decided to deal with the situation. “Don‘t worry about it, Trevor. I‘ll pay for the water.”

Chapter 19 Being A Caddie

“Miss Taylor, today is your birthday. It‘s not appropriate for you to pay. Trevor should pay,” Bernard protested. “A man should pay for a woman, or he is no man at all. If a man refuses to pay thebill, he is not responsible.” Seeing that Trevor had not made a move to pay, the attendant stared at himwithcondescending eyes. “But...” Bessie tentatively glanced at Trevor. She knew that he only earned one

thousand dollars a month to support himself and his studies. If he paid for thebottles of water now, he would not have anything left for the rest of the month. “Don‘t worry, Miss Taylor. I‘ll pay.” Trevor took out his card and gave

it to the attendant. He knew that Bernard wanted to see him make a

fool of himself. In the past, he would have folded and suffered the humiliation in

silence. But he was different now. He was no longer the Trevor who let others bully him just so that he would not go hungry in the next few days. He now held a card that housed one hundred million dollars. He did not have to live a hard life anymore or cower before anyone‘s mocking stare. The attendant swiped Trevor‘s card. The terminal beeped and the one thousand and two hundred dollars was successfully paid. “Gee! There‘s really money in it!” The attendant‘s disdainful expression softened a little, thinking that this poor loser‘s card might only have that one thousand and two hundred dollars. The attendant took out the card and set

it on the counter without looking at it. She said coldly, “It‘s done.”

Trevor‘s face darkened, but he reined in his temper. He thought to himself, ‘All the shops around here are owned by my family. The attitude of this attendant is heinous. I have to

tell my sister when I get home. Employees like this one are bad for business.” Trevor grabbed his card and put it back in his wallet. Then, he picked up the bottles of water and left. “This idiot really bought the water with the money for his bread. Let‘s see how he will live until next month.” Bernard snickered together with friends. his

Corrie shook her head. She could not believe how stupid and careless Trevor had just been. He really squandered all of his hard–earned money just because everyone goaded him into doing so. Taking back his card, Trevor thought to himself, ‘Anyway, the shop here is under

my family‘s business. Anything I spend here will eventually return to

the Sanderson account.‘ “I need two caddies to pick up balls for us.” Grant spent another ten thousand on two caddies. The Kisas Tennis Club also offered caddies to help guests pick up tennis balls for

them during the game. The charge for one caddie was five thousand dollars. The attendant replied apologetically, “I‘m sorry, sir. We have too many guests playing today. We only have one caddie available.”

“Okay, then send that one caddie to us.” Grant paid, and the caddie was arranged immediately

The caddie was an innocent–looking young woman

with tan skin. A pair of smooth, strong, and well–shaped legs shot out of her shor

t tennis skirt. She was not as beautiful as Bessie or Corrie, but

she was pretty in her own right. It was understandable why she cost five thousand dollars. Grant led everyone to the tennis courts. The tennis courts were very large, covering an area of at least ten thousand square meters.

They rented two courts and divided themselves into two groups to play. Bernard and Grant formed one group and Corrie and Bessie another. They were open–air courts surrounded by lawn, and there was nobody around but

them. The field was very private and exclusive. Bernard played against Grant and Corrie against Bessie. They played several games in a row. Every time Bernard or Grant hit the ball and It went out of bounds, the caddie picked it up for them. But at Corrie and Bessie's court, that was not the case. Bernard suggested, “Trevor, since you have nothing to do, I‘ll give you five hundred dollars if you act as a caddie for Corrie and Bessie.”

“Oh, stop it, Bernard! Trevor is here to play tennis with us, not to be our caddie!

Bessie snapped. She had just about enough of Bernard‘s rudeness to Trevor. She could not stand the bullying any longer. “I‘m just trying to help him, Miss Taylor. After all, he did just use up all of his money to buy us some water,” Bernard reasoned.

My Sudden Rich Lite

Chapter 20 The Rolex Watch

“It‘s okay, coach. Let me pick it up for you.” Trevor stood up to pick up the ball. Since it‘s boring here, I might as well make five hundred dollars. After all, Miss Taylor is not only beautiful, but she’s also kind to me. It‘s not a big deal to pick up the balls for her.’ At the thought of this, Trevor no longer felt aggrieved

Bernard and Grant exchanged a glance and snorted. In their eyes, Trevor was mor

e obedient than a dog. He obeyed them without a second thought. Thirty minutes later, everyone had gotten a little tired. But as the coach of the basketball team, Bessie still had the energy to play with others. Meanwhile, Corrie, Bernard, and Grant went to the bleachers to rest. Trevor had been picking up the balls for a long time, so he thought it was finally his turn to play with Bessie. Unfortunately, Bernard stopped him. “Hey! It‘s not your turn yet. It‘s my friend‘s! ”

“Thank you, Bernard!” With a smug look on his face, Bernard‘s follower chuckled and went to the court

with a high–end racket. He looked as though he was rubbing it against Trevor‘s face. Even though he was only Bernard‘s follower, his status in the team was higher than Trevor‘s. He was gloating as his tennis racket was popular and expensive, whereas Trevor could only use a cheap one. With a sly smile, Bernard walked up to his friend and whispered, “Teach Trevor a lesson.”

As Trevor saw that the two were talking furtively and seemed to be conspiring against him, he became extra vigilant. At

that moment, Bernard‘s follower walked to the other side of the court and, with his left hand, threw the ball high and hit it with the racket in his other hand. The ball flew straight like a bullet. Bessie‘s eyes widened in shock when she realized the ball was not flying

towards her but towards Trevor. “Trevor, watch out!” she shouted. The instant Trevor heard Bessie‘s words, he stepped aside, and the ball whizzed by his ear. To everyone‘s surprise, a man‘s voice boomed from where the ball had landed. “Son of a bitch! Who the fuck hit this ball

towards here?!“. so fast that Everything happened everyone was stunned. Bernard and his follower had planned

on hitting Trevor. However, they did not expect him to react so quickly. So

when he dodged the ball, it hit the person behind him instead. Everyone looked behind Trevor and saw a big and bulky man with tattoos on his arms. He had used his right hand to block the flying ball. But as he did so, his watchband snapped, and his watch fell to the floor and shattered. Two of the diamonds that had been embedded on the watch fell

off. And now, they were missing. Grant‘s face turned white as a sheet. “Mr. Ellis... it‘s you!” Fuming with anger, Maison Ellis picked up his watch and roared, “Who the fuck broke my watch?! I can‘t find its diamonds!

Do you know how much this Rolex watch is? It costs two million dollars!”

“Mr. Ellis, please calm down. We didn‘t mean it,” Grant politely said, not daring to offend the man

Bernard, who was behind Grant, whispered, “Who is he?”

“He‘s a loan shark and a powerful man in a gang. I heard that he‘s working for Evi

e, the richest woman in Jork,” Grant replied The faces of Bernard and his friends changed dramatically. No wonder Grant was polite to Maison. They could not afford to offend him at all.

Trevor was in a panic too. But when he heard what Grant had said, he calmed down. ‘He works for my sister. Everything should be fine. “Grant, I don‘t care if you did it on purpose or not. You have

to pay for it, or else I won‘t allow you to leave this place. Don‘t let me ask you again. Who hit the ball just now? Answer me!” Maison cast a glance at Bernard and the others. But then, his gaze fell on Bessie and Corrie, and an idea occurred to him. Suddenly, a cunning grin appeared on his face.
