My beautiful boss novel Chapter 129

"No, thank you. I'm just looking," Shelly said, a bit embarrassed. She could not help herself from appreciating the red 3-Series BMW on display.

Looking at the car, Peter remembered a popular saying: "I would rather cry in a BMW than smile on a bicycle."

He was impressed that Shelly had good taste.

The BMW was well-designed. All its lines were clean and sleek. Anyone would be tempted to purchase such a premium product.

"Let's have a closer look at it," Peter said despite her hesitation.

The car was about a hundred thousand dollars, which was something Peter could afford as he had 20 million dollars with him.

"Oh, no. Thank you so much, but no. I don't need it. I just wanted to take a look," Shelly said nervously. She only intended to accompany Peter in buying a car for Bella. She had no intention of getting one herself.

"Don't worry. I have enough money," Peter assured her. "How much is it?" he asked the salesgirl.

The salesgirl began to give him extensive details about the car as she looked at Shelly with envy.

Hooking up with rich men wasn't easy, nowadays. Even if you found one, convincing him to buy you a luxury car would be even more difficult.

Only a few rich men were like Peter. Not only was he young, he was also very handsome and generous.

'Why am I not as lucky?'

the salesgirl thought as she gazed at Peter.

"Peter, I really don't need it. Even if you buy it for me, I will not be able to afford its use and maintenance," Shelly said.

Despite her gratefulness, she had to refuse Peter's kindness. She was not after his money. He might misunderstand.

"What do you mean? I was not going to buy it for you. I was only planning to lend it to you. Don't think about it too much," Peter replied. Seeing that Shelly would not accept his gift, he decided to change his strategy.

"As part of the Sales Department, you have to keep working, rain or shine. You will also need to take the subway, even in rush hours. A car would make things easier for you. What's more, having a car can improve your image. It can make people more eager to discuss business with you.

If you do not feel comfortable accepting the gift, you can pay me back when you make enough money. In case I go broke in the future, at least I will get to rely on you," Peter explained.

Hearing Peter's explanation filled Shelly with sadness.

While she did receive a lot of growth, she did have more than her fair share of hardships.

Just as Peter narrated, she had to work hard regardless of wind and rain. She also had to take the subway and bus during rush hours every day. As soon as she got home, she would feel extremely exhausted. All she would be able to do was to lie down in bed.

"Peter, you are so kind," Shelly said as she kissed Peter on the cheek. She almost wanted to cry.

"I promise, if you really do go broke one day, I will be there to support you. I will work as hard as I have to just so I am sure that you will have enough food and clothing," she said.

It was a simple message, but Shelly meant every word. Was this her special way to show her true feelings?

Peter smiled at her slyly and then he bought the BMW without hesitation.

Before they left, he also got himself a Hummer.

There were no more stocks left so they would have to go back for it a few days later.

The salesgirl stared at Peter and Shelly as they left.

She wished she could meet such a thoughtful man too, in the future. Even if he were not rich, she would still be willing to stay with him forever.

After leaving the car shop, Peter bid Shelly goodbye and he made his way back to the office.

She reminded him of their evening plans and then left him to his day.

Upon returning, Peter closed the door of his office and began to plan the training program.

It was a fairly easy task for him given his years of experience in the army.
