Chapter 50: You Are Just a Driver
"Let them sit up and take notice? It's so easy to say, and act! What if I am exposed by others?" Jane said coldly.
"You agreed just now. Can you refuse?" Richard asked.
Jane was speechless and stared at Richard maliciously. "Of course not!"
When she finished speaking, she turned and left.
Eddy sighed and left to comfort his wife.
Catherine was devastated.
As long as she went to the Allen family’s annual meeting, she would face the ridicule and humiliation of snobbish relatives.
"Catherine, this time I will definitely make you respected," Richard affirmed.
Catherine, feeling lost, didn't want to say anything.
She was so disappointed with Richard that she didn't want to talk with Richard at all.
Richard frowned.
He knew that his wife's family had misunderstood him.
This time, he wanted his wife and mother-in-law to look at him with new eyes.
He made sure that no one was around and took out his phone. "Pierre, are you back? Get ready a Bentley. I’ll need it at my house in 20 minutes."
"I'm still in the fleet. I can't come back in a short time. I'll tell Joe to send it to you." Pierre replied respectfully.
After the phone call, Richard walked into the room.
Jane was looking for clothes.
She rummaged through the cabinet, picking and choosing.
Catherine was also frowning and worried.
Seeing this scene, Richard felt even sadder.
Over the past five years, his wife's family had lived so hard a life that they didn't even have a decent new dress.
He went over and said, "Don’t bother. I'll take you to buy new clothes."
"Richard, although you have been assigned to work by Kurt, we can't be extravagant and wasteful," Eddy was somewhat distressed by money.
Jane was not happy and glared at Eddy. "You have no conscience. I haven't been back to my mother's family for a long time. You still want me to wear the old clothes five years ago this time?! What are you thinking?"
Eddy’s face was red and he could not speak.
Catherine frowned and said, "The money Kurt lent us has just been taken away. Where do we have any money now?"
Richard smiled confidently, "Don't worry. I have money."
"Richard, you haven't given me a penny in five years. This time you have to buy me a decent dress, otherwise I won't spare you!" Jane retorted.
"Definitely," Richard nodded.
The family packed up and went downstairs.
A Bentley was parked by the door. Joe, one of the eighteen warriors, stood respectfully.
"Mr. Thompson, this is the car you requested."
Seeing Richard coming out, Joe presented the car keys and turned to drive away in a BMW i8.
"Is this car also rented by you?!"
Catherine looked at the Bentley worth more than 5 million dollars and frowned. "Richard, this car is too expensive. We can't afford it."
Clearly, her family still had 30 million to pay back, but Richard was so extravagant and vain. She didn’t know what to do.
Richard explained, "This is one of Kurt’s cars. It's just for me to get familiar with it."
Catherine was relieved.
"Kurt is really generous. It is a great honor to driving this kind of car to go shopping." Jane was excited.
"Let's go," Richard opened the car door.
Jane, Eddy, Maria and Catherine got into the luxury car worth more than 5 million dollars.
The car started and went straight to Evento's largest CBD.
Skyscrapers towered into the sky. The commercial center of the city was teeming with prosperity and magnificence.
When Richard and the others got out from the Bentley, passers-by cast envious glances at them. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
Seeing this, Jane felt her vanity burst into flames and she felt as if she was the queen of the world. She walked with confidence.
"Let's go," Richard said.
Jane snorted coldly and said, "Don't be complacent even you are driving this kind of car. When you become a big shot as Kurt, that would be real power. Now, you are just a driver."
