Slumdog Billionaire Husband novel Chapter 48

Chapter 48 We May Be Doomed

“Then, are you selling this stuff or not?” Gerald asked after a dry cough.

This question quickly pulled both Audrey and Elliot back to reality. Elliot said with a trembling voice, “Yes, yes, yes!”

Elliot was still in astonishment.

He wondered why an once coolie here had a Diamond Card from New Bank.

Elliot was a client of New Bank too, but his card was a silver one. This was the first time Elliot saw a Diamond Card in reality. Before this, he had seen it in the photos of New Bank.

Elliot quickly took the bank card, handed it to a saleswoman next to him, and said, “Quick, POS terminal!”

His hands trembled slightly.

The beautiful saleswoman did not know what this bank card meant. Given her walk of life, she had no connection with New Bank. At most, she had heard that New Bank was a place that only served the rich.

The saleswoman brought a POS terminal over, so Gerald swiped his card successfully. The transaction was completed.

Gerald closed the box, which had little decoration, and then a smile appeared on his face. Gerald looked at Audrey and said, “Do you want to buy anything else? Should we go?”

Audrey nodded mechanically. She was still in shock caused by the fact that Gerald had a Diamond Card.

Audrey swallowed and asked, “Why do you have a Diamond Card from New Bank?”

Gerald scratched his head and said, “I got this from my ancestors. It has been passed down for more than thirty generations, and I just got it.”

“Get lost!” Audrey glared at Gerald and said, “Tell me, where did you get it?”

“Secret.” Gerald smiled mysteriously at Audrey.

Frustrated, Audrey wanted to beat Gerald to death.

However, she could do nothing since Gerald refused to breathe a word of his secret.

Audrey found Gerald more mysterious than before.

Gerald said, “Let’s go.”

Audrey nodded. Elliot said, “By the way, be careful. Donovan is powerful in Los Angeles and may be considered one of the most powerful people here. Gerald, you just mucked his plan up, and he will probably pay a big sum of money as compensation. Now, the reputation of Treasure Store is completely ruined. Given his personality, he will seek revenge for sure.

“Also, he is hot–tempered. He will probably start his revenge the moment you leave my shop,” Elliot said and then glanced at Audrey with concern. “What do you think if I send my men to escort you home? I think he doesn’t have the guts to mess with my men.”

Before Gerald opened his mouth, Audrey said with a sneer, “I dare him to lay a finger on me. I will make him go bankrupt!”

Audrey was confident because her father was the richest man in Los Angeles and had a good relationship with Gideon. In Los Angeles, she could achieve this goal.

As for Gerald, he didn’t take this threat seriously.

Hearing Audrey, Elliot smiled and said, “You are right. He doesn’t dare to hurt you. In short, be careful.”

Gerald nodded. Gerald and Audrey swaggered out of the shop. Donovan was sitting in Treasure Store. He saw Gerald come out and sneered. “Gerald! That brat ruined my plan! I will teach him a lesson.”

“Boss!” Besides Donovan, a man said. “Look at the woman next to him! Is she Bradley’s daughter, Audrey?”

Donovan looked at Audrey and frowned. “Yes. Trail them. Beat Gerald to death after they separate from each other and then bring him to me.”

The man nodded and said, “Got you!”

Donovan exhaled deeply. He took out a cigarette and lit it. Then he narrowed his eyes and looked through the glass window at Gerald and Audrey, who were far away. There was a cold light in his eyes.

This was a modified garage in Los Angeles.

As usual, Fletcher held a gathering with his rich friends and a group of beautiful women in the garage. Henley was there too. He was taking liberties with a beautiful woman in his arms with a smile on his face.

The beautiful woman leaned over and said, “Come, Henley, have some wine. You have caressed me for the whole

morning.”

‘Hahaha…” There was a burst of laughter echoing in the garage.
