Invincible Heir novel Chapter 187

Spectators were gathering around them. After they knew the whole story, they looked at Dane from head to foot with great curiosity.

Dane was splendidly dressed and looked very chic. So, it was hard to believe that he couldn’t afford a trench coat, which was less than 400 grand.

Patti was embarrassed and she felt herself going red in the face, but presently she calmed a little. “Honey, did you get the wrong bank card?” she asked, holding on to a shred of hope.

Dane’s face went white when he heard Patti’s words. He tipped Patti a wink with shame and vexation, but Patti didn’t take the hint. “Honey, what’s wrong with your eyes?” she asked, confused.

He could only shake his head and cringe inside. “I don’t like the trench coat. It is really ugly.”

Patti had no idea what Dane meant, but she knew she had to buy it, because it was her reputation and pride at stake now. “No, it’s nice. It’s a nice trench coat. I think it would look terrific on you,” she said.

“Why don’t we go next door to buy a better one? The goods here are much inferior in quality. They are more suitable for the poor,” Dane said.

All were irritated by his rude remarks and were very indignant at Dane.

Just then, a customer got in front of him and blocked his way. “You son of a bitch! What do you mean? I’m one of the poor?” the customer said angrily.

Dane shrank back, looking extremely frightened. “Sorry, buddy! I think you misunderstood what I was saying,” he said and pointed at Baron with trembling hands. “I mean he is the poor!”

At this time, the store manager came over and said to Dane, “You said our goods are inferior in quality, so, where’s the proof of that?”

“Yes, I said it! Do you have problem with that?” Dane said with a brave face but with fear in his heart.

“Well, I tell you what, it is of very high quality, but I feel sad for you, because you can’t even dream to afford it,” the store manager said sarcastically.

Dane’s cheek grew red with sudden anger. He shouted, “Who says I can afford it? Open your eyes, you bastard! Look at my clothes, watch and shoes, each one is much more expensive than your trench coat!”

For a minute, the manager was speechless with amazement, because what Dane said was true. His clothes, watch, shoes were all emblazoned with luxury brands’ logos.

And then, behind them, a clear voice spoke, “It’s ridiculous. My clothes are cheap, but they are real, unlike you! I had noticed that what you are wearing are all cheap knockoffs,” Baron said.
