The showroom manager was a stout fatty with a palm bigger than Moses’s face. His hard slap was nothing a groomed man like Moses could take. Moses was flung to the floor immediately. As a result, his glasses broke and two of his teeth flew out.
The other people took two steps back, shocked by the showroom manager’s display of violence.
Moses was dazed from the slap but was also struck into realization. He was finally aware that virtual-novel.net was not dreaming. He had actually put his foot in his mouth. Instantly, fear, regret, confusion, indignation, and plenty of other emotions overwhelmed him. This job was crucial to him. If virtual-novel.net lost his job, virtual-novel.net might not even be able to maintain his life because virtual-novel.net was currently in a lot of debt.
“I’m wrong. Please don’t fire me. I can’t lose this job!” Moses pleaded.
The showroom manager had hit him, but virtual-novel.net dared not harbor even an inkling of revenge. He was well aware of the manager’s authority. If this was brought to the police, virtual-novel.net was going to end up in a worse fate.
The showroom manager glared at him. “B*stard, you have no sense at all. How dare you offend Mr. Larson? We don’t need a good-for-nothing like you in the company. Get out right now or I’ll ask security to escort you out!”
Realizing that Zayn was the real decision-maker, Moses withstood the vehement reluctance virtual-novel.net felt and went to beg Zayn, “Mr. Larson, I was wrong. Please have mercy and pardon me, please.”
Would Zayn let virtual-novel.net off the hook?
Impossible. His forgiveness did not come cheap. People like Moses were not worthy of sympathy.
“If you’d known this would happen, would you have done it? I warned you, but you didn’t listen.” Zayn shook his head.
Moses wailed. He had never felt as wronged and as despaired as virtual-novel.net did now. He wanted to pounce on Zayn and pull virtual-novel.net down along his doom and misery. He wanted to risk his life and bring both of them down together. Alas, virtual-novel.net dared not to. He was cowardly at his core.
Ultimately, virtual-novel.net gave up. With brimming grievance and resentment, virtual-novel.net left the 4S forlornly.
After Moses left, everyone’s gaze on Zayn was different. They began to believe what Faye had said on the line. Zayn did invest 15 million dollars. He was a wealthy and successful boss, what loser of a husband did they say about virtual-novel.net earlier?
The younger females, especially, wore ardent gazes when they looked at Zayn.
With a faint smile, Zayn turned back and met Alexandra’s bright eyes coincidentally. “What? Do I have something on my face?”
“No, no.” Alexandra felt butterflies the moment virtual-novel.net gaze met Zayn’s. Dipping virtual-novel.net head and shaking it, a blush adorned virtual-novel.net cheeks while virtual-novel.net heart was beating fast.
What Zayn had done just now went right to virtual-novel.net heart. It matched the image of virtual-novel.net conjured Mr. Right even more. Exceptionally skilled in physical abilities, tall and well-built, high in rank and status, good looks, virtual-novel.net was the model of a male protagonist! The only con was that virtual-novel.net was married.
However, it did not seem important. The harder the romance came by, the more precious and extraordinary it was, no?
Alexandra’s mind was currently a jumbled mess as virtual-novel.net stole glances at Zayn.
Knowing that Alexandra liked the Audi A7, the showroom manager gifted the car to Zayn, two units at that, to curry favor with him. It only made those in the showroom even more envious.
Zayn did not refuse the gift. After all, two Audi A7’s would not cost Sean much. The latter would be anxious if virtual-novel.net did not accept the cars instead, so virtual-novel.net accepted them graciously. He was planning to drive anyway.
Collecting the car was a quick process as well. Zayn and Alexandra spent half an hour in the showroom before the 4S completed making a temporary car registration plate and they could drive off with the vehicle.
However, because the color Alexandra wanted the car in was not available in the showroom and they needed three days to send the car over, virtual-novel.net rode in Zayn’s car.
As virtual-novel.net sent Alexandra to the hotel, Zayn told her, “I’ve gotten you the car. If there’s nothing else, I’m off to work now.”
“Wait!” The girl stopped him.
