Chapter 42 Help At The Dispensary
Emrys poked his head out and said, "Caylie, I've looked around, but I couldn't find a store selling umbrellas. There was only a car dealership, so I bought a car to keep us out of the rain."
There were a few strangers taking shelter in the same place. The moment they saw the sports car, their eyes widened with shock.
What on earth? A Bugatti Veyron? It costs tens of millions!
What stunned them more was what Emrys said earlier.
Err... Did he just buy a car to take shelter from the rain? Is this how wealthy people pick up girls? There's no way we can do that!
Even Caylie felt her heart skip a beat. Emrys is attracting too much attention... But this is freaking satisfying.Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.
As the crowd stared at her in admiration, Caylie entered the car with her chin lifted high.
Meanwhile, Claire had frozen to the spot in disbelief.
There was nothing Caylie needed to say, for the situation had spoken for itself-the gentleness of Claire's boyfriend was nothing compared to the Bugatti Veyron.
Right then, Emrys said deliberately, "Ah... I'm going to regret this if I don't learn to control myself when I'm young." Haha... This old bloke is suffering from ED.
The elderly man's hand froze as he wondered how Emrys noticed his problem. Unfortunately, the engine roared to life before he could even ask.
The vehicle zoomed off, splashing muddy water all over Claire.
The elderly man could only force an awkward laugh and say, "Your clothes are dirty. Let me wipe it for you."
"F*ck you!" Claire cursed and gave him a slap before running into the rain.
In the sports car, Caylie asked curiously, "Emrys, how much did you pay for this car?"
She did not know much about car brands. Like most women, she only knew common brands like BMW, Mercedes-Benz, and Volkswagen. She had never seen a Bugatti Veyron before.
However, judging by the configuration of the car, she guessed it was not cheap.
Emrys responded casually, "Around one or two million, I think? I didn't ask for the exact price. I just let the salesperson charge my card."
Emrys had been using his sisters' cars ever since he returned to Jadeborough. It was quite inconvenient for him sometimes.
Coincidentally, Emrys bumped into Claire that day and was mocked by the latter for some unknown reason. Hence, he decided to buy a car to get back at her.
It was true that he did not ask about the car's exact price.
He had his eye set on the Bugatti Veyron the moment he entered the car dealership store. Immediately, he whipped out his black card and said, "There's no need to promote the car. I want this one, and I'm buying this in full payment."
The salesperson's eyes instantly lit up at the sight of the black card.
It was an obsidian card given by the Chanaea Chamber of Commerce. Only people with distinguished status were qualified to get one.
The salesperson was instantly fired up as if he had received a jolt of energy. Normally, it would take him more than half an hour to process the temporary license plate. This time, he processed it for Emrys almost instantly.
Instead of returning to Apricot Hall, Emrys drove the car along the riverbank.
Eventually, the rain stopped.
Jolhurst River shimmered as sunlight landed on its surface. There were even fishes happily leaping out of the water.
Emrys enjoyed a time like that.
After driving in silence for some time, Caylie suddenly asked, "Emrys, have Cordelia and Yelena arranged a job for you?"
Emrys shook his head, a bitter smile on his face.
Originally, Cordelia had arranged for Emrys to be the manager of Cordelia Group's HR department. Although it was a titular position, Emrys did not like it.
As for Yelena, she wanted him to work at her bar.
Ugh. Forget it. Who knows what position I'll be given? A bartender? A security guard?
Pondering for a moment, Caylie said, "Initially, I thought of letting you work at Apricot Hall. The problem is that you don't have a medical license."
"It's all right. I can help dispense the medicines. I don't need a medical license to do that."
Caylie grinned mischievously. "Hehe. I was waiting for you to say that. Dr. Lincoln Faraday's on duty tomorrow. I'm sure there'll be many patients. I'll have to visit Summerbank to get a batch of herbs, so I'll leave the dispensing of medicines to you." "You tricked me, Caylie."
Emrys reached out to touch her slender waist.
