The Legendary Man novel Chapter 152

Chapter 152 Dirt Poor

Even though the salesperson lowered her voice, it was still loud enough for Jonathan and Josephine to hear it just as they exited the store.

Nevertheless, Jonathan ignored her as it was meaningless for him to argue with a mere salesperson.

After they left the Bulgari store, they headed toward the second floor. However, Josephine was visibly affected by the episode, as she had a distracted look on her face.

Stopping in his tracks, Jonathan turned to ask, “What’s wrong?”

“It’s nothing.” Josephine shook her head. “Why don’t we go home instead?”

The moment she thought of the big mess that was waiting for her tomorrow, she lost all interest in shopping.

Her mood was made worse by the Bulgari salesperson’s attitude, causing her to feel even more depressed.

“All right.”

Jonathan nodded. Right when they were on their way out, they passed by a watch store. Jonathan stopped in his tracks abruptly and exclaimed, “This is where my previous company used to be!”

“How can you tell?” Josephine looked at him inquisitively.

I’m surprised Jonathan can recognize it because this entire place has been redeveloped.

“It’s a wild guess,” Jonathan quipped with a smile. “I was just following a hunch.”

Rolling her eyes, Josephine ignored him. Nevertheless, she followed him inside the specialized watch store. The moment they entered, a young salesperson in a black jacket approached them. “Sir, ma’am, may I know what kind of watch you’re looking for?”

Compared to the salesperson earlier, this one was a lot more well-mannered.

“We’re just browsing,” Josephine casually remarked.

The store was filled with all kinds of watches. Evidently, they were spoilt for choice.

Some were made from pure gold, while others were embellished with diamonds.

The mechanical sounds of clockwork ticked incessantly inside the store.

“How much for this watch?” Suddenly, Josephine stopped in front of one.

“One point eight million,” the salesperson answered.

“That’s really exorbitant!”

Josephine was taken aback by the price.

“The watch was made by Vacheron Constantin in collaboration with a famous football star. Combined with the strength of its brand name and the popularity of the star, one point eight million for the watch is a reasonable price after all,” the salesperson explained the watch’s background. “Furthermore, this is a globally limited edition, and we’re the only one to carry it in Jazona.”

“It’s too expensive!” Josephine shook her head.

There was no way she could afford such an extravagant watch.

“In that case, what’s your budget?” The salesperson scrutinized Jonathan and Josephine’s outfits, as if to gauge how wealthy they were.

“Do you have something cheaper that costs around ten thousand?” Josephine inquired.
