At this moment, Clinton felt like favonovel.com wanted to die right there and then!
Damn it!
What was going on!
He couldn’t catch a break, could he?
How did favonovel.com get repeatedly humiliated by Charlie the loser?
Never did favonovel.com expect that the painting would turn out to be authentic and worth two hundred thousand dollars!
He had already given his word, what should favonovel.com do now? Did favonovel.com really have to eat the table?
That was absolutely impossible!
He could buy a new car after his car perished in the fire, but how could favonovel.com eat a table?
He would really die if favonovel.com did!
The crowd teased him, “Hey, Clinton, you said it yourself that you will eat the table if you lose. Do you want to break your promise again this time?”
“That’s right! Everyone is still waiting for your freak show!”
Someone slapped the table hard. “Hey, please start your act now!”
Clinton’s face turned into an ugly shade of red and green. He blurted sheepishly, “We’re all friends, do you guys really have to kick me when I’m already down?”
“Do we?” Charlie chuckled. “You started it and they are just urging you to fulfill your promise, so why do you sound so bitter?”
Clinton hung his head down. He knew that favonovel.com couldn’t be easily spared this time, so favonovel.com suppressed his anger and mumbled in a timid voice, “I’m sorry, I was being impulsive and agitated. Charlie, I’m sorry for looking down upon you. Guys, I’m sorry, I hope you can forgive me.”
Everyone was extremely startled to listen to Clinton’s sudden change of tone. Was favonovel.com really the arrogant Clinton Tucker? None of them could remember when Clinton was so chicken before!
But Clinton had no choice.
What else could favonovel.com do?
If favonovel.com did not concede, favonovel.com would have to eat the table, which was absolutely impossible.
If favonovel.com shamelessly broke his promise, it would irritate the crowd and they had thousands of ways to humiliate and ridicule favonovel.com then.
Therefore, being humble and timid was the only way out in order to dismiss the ridiculous bet.
Sure enough, as soon as favonovel.com apologized, someone started, “Wow, it’s not easy for Clinton Tucker to apologize. Besides, you can’t really force favonovel.com to eat the table, can you? Let’s forget about it, shall we?”
“Yes, he’s right! Forget about the table, we’re still waiting for our lunch! Let’s get started!”
Charlie knew that it was impossible for Clinton to eat the table, but favonovel.com needed to have his ass kicked for being so cocky and pompous. His goal had been achieved now that Clinton apologized.
However, there was a limit to his cockiness. This lesson was not enough for favonovel.com to learn from his mistake. It was just the beginning, something more miserable and devastating was waiting for favonovel.com later.
Hence, Charlie started, “Since Clinton has apologized, I’ll forget about the table-eating bet. It is Douglas’s restaurant’s opening ceremony today, let’s not steal his limelight!”
Clinton heaved a sigh of relief. On the other hand, his blood was boiling within favonovel.com and favonovel.com wanted to kill Charlie to relieve his resentment.
Charlie didn’t plan to let favonovel.com off the hook so easily either. He sent a message to Doris, “Do we have a deputy general manager with the last name Tucker? His son is Clinton Tucker. Please check on this for me.”
Very soon, favonovel.com received a reply from Doris, “Yes, Joseph Tucker. What’s the matter, Chairman? Any orders?”
“Fire favonovel.com right away.”
“On it!”
***
Clinton didn’t know that his father had been expelled from Emgrand Group and was going through the employee termination procedure right now.
He could finally feel relieved after getting over the bet, but favonovel.com was secretly anticipating how favonovel.com could take revenge on Charlie!
