Chapter 46
Zack even urged him repeatedly to wait for him so that they could discuss things further when he arrives.
He told Richard not to act rashly. Zack couldn’t afford to see Richard lose it at this point.
If that happened, then Zack would have to resign. No, worse still he’d rather die.
Richard hung up before Zack could even finish talking.
He hurriedly returned to the car shop with Wilson. He then told Wilson to wait for Zack to come here.
He said that he had to leave first.
“Oh! Isn’t that Richard?”
“Oh my! It is really him! What is he doing in the Lamborghini car shop?”
“I heard that the store is recruiting some sales representatives at the moment. Is he trying to apply for the job? Doesn’t he know that the shop has very high requirements for their sales representatives?”
“Yes, look at him. Even if he really won the lottery, he still has a very poor temperament. It makes people sick to even just look at him!”
Richard’s presence was unexpected.
And he could already hear were their ridicule that was directed at him.
Richard was feeling just all messed up inside. He simply glared in their direction.
It was Quinton and his classmate, Howard. The both of them each had a beautiful girlfriend with them as they looked at the cars.
To make matters worse, the two who were following behind were none other than Nathaniel and Quinn from the same faculty as him back in university.
“Hahaha. Speaking of the devil! Cousin, you told me that Richard had turned things sour for you in the past. You should have told me that the person was him then I would have told you all about his story!” Nathaniel laughed as he spoke to Howard.
“That’s it. It’s not just you, cousin! In fact, I have also been fascinated by Richard for quite some time!”
Quinn had already gotten together with Nathaniel at this time. She got to know Howard through Nathaniel and then, she naturally got to know Quinton too.
Her horizons did not just expand a little.
A while back, when she was eating with Victor and the others, she found out that Richard was really rich.
Initially, Quinn was very tempted by the prospect and she even took the initiative to try and gain his favor. She was even ready to bring Richard to open a room and spend the night with her.
Richard ignored her completely and Quinn was indulged in the thought for quite some time.
It was only until much later when she received an invitation to attend a party from Nathaniel. That was when Quinn met Howard and Quinton and she felt as though she had just stepped into a brand new world.
Was this what a real rich second generation community was like?
As for Richard who had just won the lottery, he was nothing more than an ugly and disgusting sideline!
Quinton stared coldly at Richard the entire time.
He then said, “Perhaps he had already finished spending almost all of his money. That is why he is so desperate to look for a job right now. Hahaha. Let’s not be bothered about him anymore. Let’s continue talking about this Reventon!”
All of them surrounded the newly repaired Lamborghini Reventon as they savored it inch by inch carefully.
All Richard could think about was Mila, he was very worried and anxious. So, how could he possibly be bothered about them at all?
He didn’t even have time to pay any attention to their cynicism.
Beep! Beep!
Two beeps.
Richard pushed Quinn away from the car door and stepped into his car hurriedly.
He then revved up the engine and zoomed out of the shop immediately.
Quinton was stunned and Quinn, who was about to curse at Richard, was also caught off guard.
In short, all six of them were dumbfounded as they continued staring.
Richard just drove the car away? This was Richard’s car?
Ahh!
How could that be possible?
Quinn felt as though she had just been slapped across her face. “Look! That man just stole a car!”
Quinn shouted.
“Give instructions that our shop will be closed today. All employees who have worked for less than five years will be on vacation and they can leave immediately. Some of Mr. Crawford’s important subordinates will be reaching anytime soon!”
Wilson did not pay any attention to Quinn or Quinton but he simply gave his instructions to his secretary.
The secretary got to work immediately.
Quinton and the rest of them were still standing dumbfounded at this time.
“Brakeee!”
Suddenly, a burst of emergency brake sounds screeched from outside the shop.
Over a dozen Rolls-Royce Phantom had already lined in front of the entrance of the car shop.
At that moment, Zack stepped out of the car before dashing right into the shop...
“Zack? Uncle Zack!”
Quinton was surprised when he saw Zack here. He could see the expression on Zack’s face at that time and he did not dare to go forward to say hello to him.
Quinton also had not fully regained his senses and composure from the shock he witnessed just now.
“Mr. Lyle!”
Wilson greeted him immediately.
“How are things? Where is Mr. Crawford?”
Zack hurriedly asked.
“Mr. Crawford has already gone over there first. He’s afraid that he’d be too late!”
Wilson hurriedly said.
“Ahh! That is not good. Hurry, take me to the place that Mr. Crawford is headed to. No matter what, nothing bad can happen to Mr. Crawford today!”
As Zack spoke, he was already calling his men as he walked out of the door. Concurrently, Zack also sent a text message to Richard first before carefully taking out a machine with a red button and pressed it...
Quinton, Quinn and the others were all stunned.
“What? Crawford ... Mr. Crawford?”
How could they not have understood what this meant? The Mr. Crawford that Zack was referring to seemed to be none other than Richard!
Richard was Mr. Crawford? Mr. Crawford was Richard?
Everyone was shocked. How could they not have heard of the infamous Mr. Crawford’s name on Mayberry Commercial Street? His great name had already been the talk of the town at this point.
No one thought that this would be possible...
Yes! When Richard walked into the car shop, he looked very anxious. Moreover, even though they were taunting him, Richard ignored them completely and he simply drove away.
And the Lamborghini Reventon.
That was Richard’s car!
If they had thought about it again, Richard hosted a banquet in one of the most expensive rooms in the Wayfair Mountain Entertainment.
He had been extremely extravagant.
How could they have not known? Richard was that Mr. Crawford!
Quinton almost sat down on the ground.
He was still in disbelief and he asked the sales consultant at the side:
“Is the Mr. Crawford that Mr. Wilson and Mr. Lyle are referring to, called Richard Crawford? He owns the car that he drove off just now?”
The sales consultant nodded before he replied, “Yes, don’t you know him?”
He felt a little weird as he asked the last question.
After all, he had been very surprised that this group of people actually dared to talk to Mr. Crawford in that manner. He initially thought that they were possibly even more powerful compared to Richard. As a result, they did not even know anything about Mr. Crawford’s identity at all!
“Oh my god!”
