"Andrew, if you just admit defeat and learn to bark like a dog, we'll let this go!" Helen retorted sarcastically. "That's right! Now that you admit defeat, I might not need you to kneel," Kyle said, then putting his phone back in his pocket, his expression showing mockery. I sneered contemptuously and coolly clicked open the banking app on my phone, then handed it to the store manager. The store manager reluctantly took my phone, then slowly lowered their head to look at the screen. The mobile phone I used was just an ordinary one, and its corners showed signs of wear and tear. In reality, it's just an inexpensive and old cellphone, nothing more. How could someone who uses such a mobile phone have money? People must think I'm foolish to know that I don't have money, yet still dare to compare wealth with others. Suddenly! The store manager's face changed rapidly, disbelief evident in her eyes. "One, two, three... Seven, eight digits?!" the store manager murmured. "Ten million
I coldly shouted, "Get out!"Kyle bowed his head, and then he stormed off in anger, turning away without calling Helen to follow him.From childhood to adulthood, he had never felt as ashamed as he did today.Although it was just a simple apology, for him, it was a deeply humiliating matter. Helen hurriedly chased after him."Lily, Luna, let's go too!"After Kyle and Helen left, I smiled and said to Lily and Luna. Lily and Luna nodded."Dear sir and ladies, our store has a wide selection of beautiful clothing. Please feel free to browse and choose."The attitude of the store manager changed completely, she smiled warmly, trying to win our favor.The saleswoman standing beside her also smiled and bowed."We are all poor. How can we afford clothes from this store?" I sarcastically retorted.The smiles on the faces of the store manager and the saleswoman immediately froze, revealing a sense of embarrassment.The store manager cleared her throat and then forced a laugh, saying, "I... I ap
I unplugged my phone and looked. It was already past four in the afternoon.I knew Mr. Kurt Thompson, Emma's grandfather, didn't like me, but regardless, he was still my wife's grandfather, so I had to attend his birthday party.I hurried home to change into the new clothes I had just bought and then rushed to Tadich Gill restaurant.The restaurant was about half an hour away from where I was, but the city center was often congested, especially at this time when everyone was leaving work, making the roads even more crowded.As the rush hour approached, I worried about getting stuck in traffic, so I decided to take the subway.Although it wasn't yet time for people to leave work, the subway was already packed with commuters. All the seats were taken, and a few people could only stand.I stood near the entrance and just as the subway started moving, my phone rang. I took it out and saw an unfamiliar phone number on the display."Hello! Who is this?" I asked."Good day, Mr. Edwards. This
[Ding! Master, you just rescued a beautiful girl, increasing your attractiveness value by 2 points! Experience value increased by 5000 points!] As the subway train just departed, the rich son-in-law system transmitted a reminder sound. [Ding! Congratulations, Master! The rich son-in-law system has been upgraded to level 2, and you have also received a lucky red envelope!] [Master, would you like to open the lucky red envelope immediately?] "Yes!" [Ding! Congratulations, Master! You have gained twenty million dollars!] Upon hearing this, my eyes immediately lit up. "Ting ting!" Soon after, my mobile phone notified me of a text message. I clicked to open it and indeed, my bank account had been credited with an additional twenty million dollars. I never expected that simply helping someone would also earn me rewards. "Ting ting!" The mobile phone once again transmitted a notification sound for a text message. I clicked to open it and saw that it was a message from the bank. T
At present, there are only three porcelain items in the world called "Sangkhalok." I can't be completely certain if this is a genuine ancient treasure at its true value, but based on the knowledge I've acquired, its worth is extremely extravagant. It can be said to be a priceless treasure! I carefully wrapped the ancient porcelain item and held it close to my heart before entering the restaurant. As I stepped into the VIP room, I noticed everyone presenting birthday gifts to Mr. Kurt Thompson. The esteemed members of the Thompson family had already presented their gifts, leaving only a few grandchildren who hadn't yet given their gifts to Mr. Kurt Thompson. "Grandpa, this is a gift from me to you," Emma stood up with a bright smile and handed a golden box to Mr. Kurt Thompson. Mr. Kurt Thompson happily accepted the box and opened it in front of everyone. Immediately, a sparkling emerald ring appeared before Mr. Kurt Thompson. "I know you have a passion for collecting gemstones,
"Hey! Andrew, what do you have in your hand? Is it a birthday gift?" Mike looked at the box in my hand. "Everyone, look, there seems to be a fast delivery invoice sticker on the box!" A customer exclaimed. "Fast delivery?" Mike acted as if he had discovered something new and said, "Did you buy the gift online?" "He couldn't afford to buy a gift. So, of course, he had to buy it online," Mrs. Laelia mocked. "That's right!" Mike chuckled and nodded. "You're right, I bought a gift." Seeing them looking down on me like that, I decided to give the antique bowl in my hand to Mr. Kurt Thompson to make those who looked down on me feel ashamed. "Did you really buy a birthday gift online?" Emma frowned unhappily and glanced at me, asking softly. "Yes!" I nodded seriously. "I told you that I would prepare a gift, so why did you ruin it?" Emma blamed me. She, like the others, felt that the gift I bought had no value and that giving it to Mr. Kurt would only make me lose face and feel em
Emma's expression was extremely unpleasant to look at. Mrs. Brebeca glared at me with anger in her eyes as if she wanted to devour me alive. "A dog's mouth can't speak human language!" I coldly retorted. "Who are you cursing?" Mrs. Laelia lowered her face. "I'm cursing all of you ignorant fools!" "You..." "I'm telling you that the bowl in my hand is an antique porcelain bowl, the Sangkhalok blue-glazed bowl!" I said. "The Sangkhalok blue-glazed bowl?" Suddenly, an old man sitting to the left of Mr. Kurt Thompson spoke up. This old man's name was Cuthbert Rodriguez, he was a friend of Mr. Kurt Thompson's and also one of the most famous antique appraisers in the world. "Mr. Cuthbert Rodriguez, what's the matter?" Mr. Kurt Thompson immediately asked. Mr. Cuthbert Rodriguez didn't answer Mr. Kurt Thompson but stood up and walked in front of me, asking, "Is the bowl you're holding a Sangkhalok blue-glazed bowl?" "Exactly!" "Can I see it?" "Sure, but you can only look, not touch
They couldn't understand why I possessed such a valuable antique bowl."Andrew, show me your antique bowl," suddenly said Mr. Kurt Thompson, laughing at me.Anyone with a clear mind could understand that Mr. Kurt Thompson wanted to take possession of my antique bowl."Grandpa, didn't you just say that my bowl is trash? If it's trash, then you don't need to look at it or touch it, to keep your hands and eyes clean," I sarcastically replied to Mr. Kurt Thompson.Mr. Kurt Thompson frowned, his veins pulsating on his forehead.Others were taken aback, not expecting me to speak to Mr. Kurt Thompson in such a manner.I approached to congratulate Mr. Kurt Thompson on his birthday, but he treated me just like any other member of the Thompson family, considering my gift to be worthless trash.If Mr. Kurt Thompson looked down on me, I had no intention of giving him the satisfaction.The more Mr. Kurt Thompson desired the green porcelain bowl, the less I wanted to give it to him.Revenge is a di
