Lucy was afraid to ask the next question. "Boss... exactly what amount is expensive for you? Um like when will you feel that something is too pricey?"Frank gnashed his jaw. "Lucy Hale... such disrespect! You are asking that question to the CEO of EW Industries!""I-I am just curious," she mumbled. "Don't have to be so mad about itâ¦"Eric seemed to be in deep thought. But he couldn't respond even after a long time.Lucy's mouth twitched.Is it that difficult to answer?"Then how about the lowest amount you have spent?"Eric seemed relieved. He had an answer to that."The lowest was Five hundred billion dollars for an island.""..."At that moment, Lucy had enlightenment. She discovered the true essence of the saying-Ignorance is truly bliss.Five-five-five h-h-h-hundred b-b-b-billion? , freaking dollars!If my Godly handsome prince thinks five hundred billion dollars as his lowest amount, then I must refrain from asking his upper limit.Maybe he doesn't have any upper limit which is why he couldn't answer earlier.And here I am fighting for Nine hundred dollar. Of course, he would think of me as a poor pleb. No, I am an insect in front of him.Lucy sobbed. "Boss, I will come on the streets if I pay six hundred dollar! A little discount pleaseâ¦"Eric nodded.Lucy brightened."Boss! Thank you! I knew it. You are kind-hearted." She wiped her non-existent tears.He looked at Frank. "Pay the entire bill. She is really poor.""..."Now the non-existent tears became existent.T-that last sentence was unnecessary...Lucy quickly said, "N-No boss, don't pay the entire bill. I will pay too.Frank sneered. "With the way you shamelessly asked for an eighty percent discount, you are not that far to ask for a hundred percent either. Might as well we pay for all of it."Is today World Humiliation Day?
