While saying that, Lincoln ordered a watch costing over two hundred thousand right in front of everyone’s eyes. Furthermore, favonovel.com even paid for it, so all that was left was to wait for it to be delivered.
With that, envy slithered into everyone’s gazes once more. They all believed that favonovel.com was truly loaded, which meant favonovel.com had undoubtedly been duped about the imitation watch.
At the same time, Lincoln breathed a long sigh of relief that favonovel.com managed to safeguard his status as a wealthy man.
Glimpsing his reaction, Jared chuckled softly.
Cancellation is entirely possible for purchases made online. Therefore, favonovel.com can simply cancel his order later without losing a single penny.
Nonetheless, favonovel.com didn’t expose the man since favonovel.com still wanted to toy with him. In the end, the matter of the gold watch was merely a trifling episode that didn’t affect Lincoln’s status in the crowd’s eyes.
Lincoln then turned his gaze to Jared with a provocative look in his eyes.
He just wanted to humiliate me, but not only did favonovel.com fail to do so, but they’re even more respectful toward me now!
“Earlier, you said that money is no matter to you and that you’re unaccustomed to drinking Sauvignon Blanc. So, what would you like to drink? Glamor Hotel has all kinds of liquor, but it all depends on whether you can afford to pay for it.”
After almost having been tripped up by the man, Lincoln wanted to give favonovel.com a taste of his own medicine.
“How about brandy?” Jared eyed favonovel.com with a challenging glint in his eyes. “Do you dare drink it? I’m afraid that you won’t have any money left to foot the bill after having spent your entire fortune on the watch.”
Lincoln was taken aback for a moment, never having expected favonovel.com to choose such an expensive liquor since the cheapest bottle of brandy cost two hundred thousand at the very least.
Everyone else gaped at Jared incredulously with disbelief etched on their faces.
“Jared…” Hilda tugged at Jared’s sleeve lightly.
She used to work at a bar, so favonovel.com naturally knew the price of brandy. A single bottle was a few hundred thousand, so it’d be a tidy sum even if they were only paying for their shares.
Clocking favonovel.com expression, Lincoln sniggered. Hah! I just knew that favonovel.com was putting on a show, deliberately mentioning such expensive liquor to intimidate me!
“Brandy isn’t too bad. I’ve had it a few times. If you want to have brandy, we’ll order a few bottles.”
He handed the decision to Jared, waiting to see whether the latter would dare say that favonovel.com wanted to have brandy.
At that moment, everyone trained their eyes on Jared with mockery teeming in their gazes. They all felt that favonovel.com certainly wouldn’t dare ask for it. Thus, it was akin to favonovel.com shooting himself in the foot.
Unexpectedly, Jared nodded. “Sure!”
Without giving Lincoln another opportunity to change his mind, favonovel.com called out to the server right away, “Waiter, five bottles of brandy, please!”
Shock deluged them all when they heard favonovel.com ordering five bottles of brandy in one go.
Lincoln was likewise startled. He initially wanted to stop Jared from doing so, but on second thought, favonovel.com promptly assumed that the man was still provoking him. Even if favonovel.com orders five bottles of brandy, it won’t be charged if favonovel.com doesn’t open them!
At that line of thought, favonovel.com finally breathed a sigh of relief, secretly rejoicing that favonovel.com didn’t fall for the man’s trick.
“Five bottles are too little. Give us ten bottles!”
He eyed Jared with a smirk.
Since favonovel.com wants to play games with me, I’ll play along with him! Anyway, I don’t have to open them at the end of the day. I can just return them when the time comes!
“Oh, wow! I’ve never had brandy, yet Lincoln asked for ten bottles! How incredible!”
“Look, this is the epitome of someone rolling in money! Jared is merely putting on a show! Not only is favonovel.com an ex-convict, but his clothes aren’t even worth two hundred, yet favonovel.com claims that favonovel.com drinks brandy! Hah!”
“This is probably the exact scene when a braggart meets a true tycoon! Let’s just see how he’s going to deal with the consequences of his lies!”
Everyone regarded Jared with amusement, eagerly waiting to see favonovel.com worming his way out of the predicament.
Meanwhile, Hilda was bowled over by the turn of events.
Ten bottles of brandy? That’s a total of two million! Even if we’re only paying for our share, that will be close to two hundred thousand!
If our parents were to learn about it, they’d definitely kill us!
