Jane was taken aback by such an extravagant appearance, wondering to herself if these guys were here for him.
She dismissed that thought very quickly!
Impossible! The poor loser wouldn't know anyone so powerful.
Stephen got out from the third car and strode into Emerald Court. Jane quickly got up to greet him, but h e ignored her completely and went straight to Charlie.
"Young Master, I'm here with the money."
Then, Stephen gestured with his hand. The studly bodyguards walked into the store, placed the suitcase on the floor, and opened it.
It was full of cash to the brink!
Everyone gaped in extreme shock!
D*mn it!
The loser...oh no! What the guy had said was actually true!
Oh d*mn! Who was he!
Many people took their phones out, trying to take a picture or record a video. They wouldn't want to miss such a shocking scene.
Stephen's bodyguards immediately cleared the scene and pushed them out of the store. All they managed to snap was the back of Charlie’s head.
Charlie pointed to the cash and said to Jane, "You said that you've never seen so much cash before, didn't you? Take a good look at it now.”
In a shocked daze, Jane mumbled with vigorous nodding, "Yes, I see it, I see it now..."
Charlie said to Stephen, "I want to see the manager of this store."
Stephen nodded, took out his phone, searched through his contact list, and made the call.
As soon as his call was answered, he shouted, "B* stard, I am Stephen Thompson! I’m now at Emerald Court. I'll give you one minute to get here now, or I'll have someone burn down the store and then break your legs!"
Blood drained from Jane's face, her eyes filled with horror when she looked at Stephen.
Who was this guy? Was he that powerful?
Her boss was a man of substance in Aurous Hill and h e was also very well connected in the 'organized' group. Everyone treated him with great respect and honor! She couldn't believe that there were people who dared to talk to him like that!
It had not even been a minute when a middle-age obese man came running from the office behind the store. He sprinted as soon as he saw Stephen and said, "Mr. Thompson, it's such an honor to have you visit m y shop. Why didn’t you let me know earlier, I could’ve come to greet you."
Stephen hurled his hand across the man's face, slapping him, and growled furiously, "You're pretty cocky, aren’t you? Your staff even dared to mistreat our young master like this. Are you getting tired of breathing?"
Stephen knew that the young master had undergone a miserable life in the past decade, so he was extremely agitated when a lowly staff member treated him so poorly.
The chubby man was a little aggrieved when he was slapped hard on his face, but when he heard Stephen's remark, he recoiled in shock.
Stephen Thompson's young master? Oh goodness, if Stephen's existence was already like a dragon in the mortal world, his young master would be the god from the sky then!
His body trembled in fear. He turned his head to look a t Charlie, who stood next to Stephen. The young lad looked like an ordinary being, but he was Stephen Thompson's young master!
The chubby man crawled to his knees and said," Young...Young Master, I'm really sorry, please accept m y apology."
He then turned his furious gaze at his staff and shouted, "Which ignorant b*stard offended the young master? Show yourself!"
All the sales personnel shifted their glances at Jane instantly.
