“I know right, and then he will end up not buying it. I’ve seen far too many actors like him!”
The two girls took turns to scoff at Gerald.
“I hope you’ll become more sensible, Gerald. Your family is poorer than everyone else, and in the future, you’ll have a lower starting point in your career than anyone else. Even Hayward, who’s about to receive his compensation from the demolition of his house doesn’t dare to buy any of the phones, and yet you’re thinking of buying one? Stop pretending!” exclaimed Sharon.
Honestly speaking, her attention had always been on Hayward before this.
She never bothered paying attention on Gerald at all.
Now that even Hayward was mocking Gerald, she could not help but follow suit and ridiculed him with a word or two.
Then, she shook her head in contempt.
“Hayward, since you’ve come all the way here, I’ve just asked my boss for his permission, and now I can sell you that phone for 300 dollars less! The condition is that you’ve to buy two phones, and you’ve to promise me that, in the future, you must bring more customers to my store, or else I’ll be scolded by my boss to death!”
Margie came out of nowhere to convince Hayward to buy her phone.
She was really good with promoting her products, and those who did not know would think that she had suffered a great loss.
Lilian and Sharon were both convinced by her marketing skills.
Hayward had made a mistake, but a mistake is yet just another mistake as he could just change the topic.
“Ahem, just hold on for a moment, Margie. I’m not rich, but the real rich guy is this dude over here. He was about to purchase a 5000 dollars phone, so why don’t you persuade him instead of me!”
Hayward hurriedly shifted the topic to Gerald.
“Huh? Him? I’ll smack myself twice in public if he can even afford it, Hahahaha!”
When Margie saw that the person was Gerald, she laughed so hard that she even snorted. “Hey, Hayward, don’t change the subject and get over to my store to check it out!”
“Miss, you can’t just barge in and snatch our customers away, it’s against our store’s rules!”
The young salesgirl said nervously.
“Oh, you must be new here, am I right? Everyone in this mall knows me, why don’t you go around and ask who am I? If you dare to talk to me like that again, I’ll get someone to slice open your pretty little face after work, so you better watch out!”
The salesgirl dared not speak up anymore.
“Miss, could you get me another one wrap it nicely, I’m buying two of them!”
Gerald brushed off their mockery.
