The Legendary Man novel Chapter 50

Chapter 50 A Surprise

“Worldwide limited edition sports car?” the lady repeated, her voice trembling. “It must be expensive, right?”

“Expensive?” the middle-aged man scoffed. “Even if you’re rich enough to afford to buy this car, it isn’t available to everyone. There are only ten worldwide and only three in Chanaea. In Jazona, there is only one available for sale! The car itself cost eighteen million, eight hundred and eighty thousand. Including all the specs, fees, and taxes, the owner will have to pay more than twenty-five million! The vehicle purchase tax itself costs two million!”

What? The vehicle purchase tax itself costs two million?

Everyone blanched at the piece of information, for two million was enough to buy a house in a high-end residential area.

One can buy a house with the vehicle purchase tax paid to buy this car. That’s shocking.

The young lady’s expression was dark as thunder. She assumed the car belonged to her boyfriend, but turned out her boyfriend’s car was cheaper than the purchase tax of this limited edition model.

She felt her throat clamming up as though she had just swallowed a fly.

“Darling, where’s the Lamborghini you bought? Let me take a look at it!” As the crowd’s gazes turned scornful, she dragged the middle-aged man to his newly bought Lamborghini.

“Around two million,” the man replied honestly.

 

In fact, he had already told her about the price of this car before he went to buy it.

“Oh, that’s really expensive!” the lady exclaimed, pretending to be shocked. Without warning, she threw herself at the man and said shyly, “Thanks for the gift, Darling!”

Gift? Disdain flashed across the middle-aged man.

Why will I gift a two million car to you?

This lady wasn’t actually his girlfriend, though they had recently gotten together.

There was no way he’d marry her, for it was clear that she had slept with countless men before him.

Instead of exposing her lie, he played along. “I’m glad you like it, Darling. Two million isn’t that much!”

“Ha!” Jonathan let out a scoff at their act.

He had seen through their crude act.

“Penniless fool, why are you laughing? You can’t afford to buy this sports car even if you work hard your entire life!” the lady hissed. “If you grovel at my feet, I might consider letting you try out the leather seats.”

“Darling, who is this?” the middle-aged man demanded, his gaze landing on Jonathan.

“A penniless man who drives an electric scooter!” the lady answered, her voice dripping with disdain. “He said my BMW 3 series that cost three hundred thousand is an inferior car. Look at how shabby he looks. I bet he hasn’t even touched a three hundred thousand BMW before.”

“He’s the penniless idiot you’ve been talking about?” Scorn appeared in the man’s eyes.

“Yes, that’s right. He doesn’t even have a job. I don’t understand what Josephine sees in him,” the lady laughed coldly. “Come on, Josephine. Let’s get into my darling’s new car. This must be your first time riding a fancy car, right?”

Oh? This is Josephine?
