The Secretly Rich Man
Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 829
The salesgirl was taken aback by Geraldâs tone.
Even Rose and the others were surprised by his sudden change in attitude.
His voice was by no means deafening, but the hostile expression Gerald wore made everyone shudder in fear.
âHmph! Youâre still adamant about buying ten of âem huh? The cheapest of these clothes cost at least six grand! Itâll cost you tens of thousands of dollars judging by the number you specified. Are you serious about your purchase?â
Rose and the others despised the feeling of being intimidated by Gerald.
Was he really planning to buy ten of these dresses?
Hahaha!
They started sneering as they ridiculed him.
Bea also tugged on Geraldâs arm as she said, âForget it. Eldest aunt is right. We will never be able to afford the clothes here. I think itâs best if we leave now!â
âItâs okay. Iâve already said that Iâll buy you these clothes! Look, the ones you tried on just now looked A-okay, so why not? Miss, if you will, please help me check how much they cost. Iâll be paying with my card by the way!â
Gerald whipped out his debit card.
The salesgirl nodded repeatedly upon seeing how serious he was about the purchase.
âHold on. I was not talking to you. I am talking to you, miss. Please help me to pack these clothes up!â
Gerald said as he pointed at another salesgirl who stood at the side throughout their entire exchange.
âOkay, sir!â
The salesgirl started packing up the clothes as ordered. There were ten pieces of clothing in total.
The total price was $120,000.00.
âHahaha! This fool. $120,000.00. Isnât he walking into his own tomb?â
âThatâs right. Even if he wants to show off, this is not the way to do it. $120,000.00 just to buy some clothes? This is going to be an amazing show!â
Marilyn was overjoyed when she saw the total bill.
Geraldâs cousins started whispering among themselves.
âHmph! I want to see how Gerald is going to get out of this mess!â
Rose exchanged glances with one another and they sneered at Gerald with their arms crossed over their chests.
The salesgirl quickly brought out the POS machine.
Gerald typed in the password as if he had done this countless times before.
As Gerald was about to key in the last final digit of his password, the salesgirl suddenly exclaimed.
âWait! Hold on, sir! I made a mistake!â
The salesgirl was overly nervous. After all, with a sale of $120,000.00, she would be able to gain a commission of at least five to six thousand dollars. How could she not be nervous?
She got such a great deal without saying a single word nor moving a single muscle after all!
Her anxiety and excitement were further fuelled by all the attention she got from her colleague as well as the customers.
As a result, she accidentally keyed in an extra zero on the POS machine.
However, before she could stop him, Gerald had already keyed in his password on the POS machine. It was too late, as she could see on the display that the machine was already transferring the transaction dataâ¦.
âSir, I am so sorry but I accidentally keyed in the total amount as $1,200,000.00 instead of $120,000.00. I am really sorry!â
The salesgirl apologized profusely while bowing at Gerald.
âItâs okay. You donât need to apologize. Even if you keyed in one less zero, heâd never be able to cough up that amount!â
Third aunt said.
Beep!
The POS machineâs beep was loud and clear.
It stated that the transaction was successful.
It then proceeded to churn out the receipt with no hiccups whatsoever!
âWhat?!â
Rose, Geraldâs cousins, and Marilyn were all shocked.
The transaction was actually successful?
Geraldâs debit card? He actuallyâ¦he actually has $1200,000.00 in his bank card?
F*ck! Am I dreaming?
Marilynâs mouth was wide open out of disbelief.
Astonished, Rose stared at one another with the same look of disbelief. The expression on their mugs could never get any uglier than this.
Gerald, the boy born as a pauper has a million bucks in his bank account!?
The salesgirl was even more frightened when she saw the look on their faces. With trembling hands, she said, âSorry, sir. I will refund the rest of the money to you immediately! I am really, really sorry!â
âForget it. You donât need to refund the money to me. Donât you guys have a membership scheme? Iâll just sign up for a membership card for my sister, and you just need to transfer the balance into that card.â
Gerald tucked his card back into his wallet with a wry smile on his face.
