Chapter 225

Chapter 225  “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 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 Sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ (ƒ)indNƟvᴇl.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. 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.
