Chapter 557 - 557 Swipe the Card_1

“You…”

Jack Lau was extremely angry.

He had spent so much money and hadn’t even touched anything.

Honestly, he felt like crying.

The three hundred million was originally meant to smooth things over because the family’s goods were detained by Aron Jackson.

But now, he had squandered it completely.

Thompson was not having an easy time either because he was representing his family in negotiations for a partnership with Beckett Carmichael’s Oberon Group, he had to show sincerity.

The money was for purchasing items and for gratifying the executives of the Oberon Group.

Looking at it now, the loss was still bearable.

After all, it was only after Jack Lau’s three hundred million were squandered that it came to his turn.

And the other party was down to their last bullet, less than a million left.

“What do you say, kneel down!”

He coughed once, adjusted his emotions, and coldly addressed Julius Reed.

One million, in this crystal exhibition hall, probably couldn’t buy anything.

“Foolish Easterner, now please kneel down! Bark like a dog!”

Jack Lau, who had spent three hundred million and was incredulous, was now ready to thoroughly humiliate Julius Reed.

“It’s over, they’ve hit rock bottom. But in such a short time, both sides have squandered six or seven hundred million, that’s enough profligacy!”

“Isn’t it just! I’ve already sent out the video, and they instantly became famous.”

“Show those rich second generations, what’s the use of competing in this and that, if you have the guts, learn from these two right here—burning real cash is the real skill!”

Everyone was enjoying the spectacle immensely.

Even if the competition had gone to the point where one party had no money, wasn’t there still the barking like a dog and calling someone daddy to look forward to?

Equally exciting!

This involved the son of the CEO of Oberon Enterprise, which had its own special significance.

“What are you two getting so worked up about?”

Julius Reed looked puzzled at the two American men in front of him, shrugged, and said, “I haven’t bought anything yet, and you’re concluding that I’ve lost?”

“Heh, you’ve only got a million in your card, I saw it!”

Jack Lau’s eyes were full of disdain.

Even though his money wasn’t as much as the other’s, relying on Thompson’s card for entry allowed him to suppress Julius Reed.

“Really?”

Julius Reed raised an eyebrow and smiled, “Indeed, poverty limits your imagination. Now, please widen your dog eyes and watch carefully!”

Having said that, he turned around, pointed at a display in front of him, and asked, “How much for these?”

The direction Julius Reed was pointing held three rings and two bracelets.

“Hello, the total value is five hundred and eighty million!”

The salesperson quickly calculated the total amount.

“Take them all out! Your lordship doesn’t have time to waste with these people!”

After speaking, Julius Reed pointed at the salesperson, “Swipe the card immediately.”

“Haha! Talking about precious time, what a joke!”

Jack Lau laughed uproariously, then said to Quella Radcliffe, “Miss, your husband has nothing left. He only has less than a million. Are you sure you don’t want to consider coming with us?”

“Exactly! With just a million and still putting on airs here, you’re the most stubborn I’ve seen!”

Thompson sneered, “Mister, not going to Hollywood is such a waste for you. If I didn’t know your financial situation, seeing your expression, I almost believed you!”

“I almost believed it too!”

The two men wore looks of contempt, waiting to see Julius Reed make a fool of himself.

After all, Jack Lau just saw clearly that the card had no money left.

“Sir, these are your goods!”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

After swiping the card, the salesperson pushed the items to the front of the counter.

All the counters here were made of toughened glass; without a salesperson’s fingerprint, there was no way to open the counter.

“Impossible!”

Jack Lau’s face changed dramatically, he walked over and then stood there agape.

“How is it still a million!”

There, on the balance, it read that there was still one million left.

A normal receipt would not show this kind of display.

But Julius Reed did it on purpose, exposing his own balance by choosing to use a special machine.

“What’s going on!”

Thompson also walked over.

From the beginning, he had felt that something was off.

But he thought the machine from the East would display the balance.

However…

“Sorry, that was written by me with a pen.”

Julius Reed said with a faint smile.

A POS machine isn’t a text message from a bank card, so how could it possibly show a balance!

“No! It’s clearly printed by the machine!”

Jack Lau roared furiously.

“Let me see!”

Thompson snatched the receipt and gently rubbed the balance column with his finger.

Sure enough, the ballpoint pen’s ink immediately blurred.

“This… was really written on?”

He stared with wide eyes, incredulous.

“God, how is this possible!”

When Jack Lau saw that the font blurred for a moment, he could only feel the world spinning.

“I wrote it while signing.”

Julius Reed smiled slyly.

Living for a hundred thousand years, calligraphy is indeed a skill.

He could now make his handwriting look exactly like machine print.

Even upon close inspection, no one could tell the difference.

Of course, this was just a product of idleness; otherwise, who would practice this?

“A POS machine would display a balance? What’s inside your head!”

Julius Reed mocked again, “Hurry up, do you have the money? If you do, smash it; if not, kneel down and call me daddy!”

Having spoken, he put his hands together and rubbed hard!

“Whoosh!”

With a light blow, the crystal ornament that was just there shattered into powder, scattering in the air.

“FUCK, Jack, you’ve screwed me over!”

Thompson slapped the back of his foolish teammate’s head, calculating in his mind what to do next.

Now it seemed that he had completely underestimated the opponent!

But if he didn’t continue, he would lose face.

Of course, he believed that no one could force him to kneel if he didn’t want to.

But then, his reputation would be completely gone.

“The son of the president of Oberon Enterprise, so poor! I thought after all that bragging just now, you were rich! It turns out all foreigners are ‘all bark and no bite’!”

Julius Reed said loudly, his words full of contempt: “Excuse me for being frank, but in the future, don’t come out and embarrass yourself, and by tomorrow, I’m afraid the whole world will know that Oberon Enterprise is nothing but a facade!”

“Shut up!”

Thompson’s face went through a tumult of colors.

Now he really had no path of retreat.

If it were just a simple showing off of wealth, losing wouldn’t have mattered much.

But now, it was about family honor!

Oberon Enterprise was well-known internationally.

And his current visit to China was to establish cooperation with the Oberon Group.

To further expand their influence in the East.

He had thought that with today’s kerfuffle he could show off and earn points for Oberon Group, showcasing their strength.

But who would have thought that he would now be facing such a predicament!

“I’ll play till the end with you!”

An enraged Thompson walked up to the counter, pointing at a pile of jewelry: “This, this, and this one! Bring them all out!”

“Sir, that will be eight hundred and thirty million in total.”

The salesperson spoke.

“Charge it!”

The irrational Thompson yelled angrily.
