Hearing this, Peter almost peed his pants and he hurriedly said, “I-I must’ve said it wrong. I’m not the CEO of Carlson Group but the Carlson Group really hired me and offered a high salary…”
Bystanders instantly burst into laughter when they heard that Peter was a liar. As for Penny, she felt really humiliated and her face turned red.
However, Tiger was not willing to give up. “Stop lying! Why would our company offer a high salary to losers like you?”
Peter panicked and quickly replied, “I-I’m telling the truth!”
“Well then, what position did our company offer you?!”
“I-I’m responsible for managing the k-kindergartens under Carlson Group…”
“Liar!” Tiger yelled angrily. “The person managing the kindergartens is my aunt. Since when did they hire you to replace her? Tell me the truth, what are you responsible for?”
Embarrassed, Peter muttered, “I-I am responsible for managing a class in the kindergarten…”
Everyone was startled and Tiger directly scoffed. “Responsible for a class? So you’re just a kindergarten teacher! You’re just a foreign teacher that our kindergarten hired, aren’t you?”
Everyone around them burst into laughter. This Peter guy is really just a liar. He’s just a foreign teacher working at a kindergarten under the Carlson Group but he pretended to be the CEO of Carlson Group. What a skillful liar. He was just boasting about being a civilized gentleman and scolded others for being savage and rude. In the end, he is just a liar.
At that moment, those who spoke for Peter and Penny a while ago felt extremely embarrassed, especially the girl who was dressed in luxurious clothes. She was so humiliated that she wished the ground would open up and swallow her. She had feelings for Peter when she saw that he was tall and handsome with a gentlemanly demeanor and heard that he was working in a high position. She never thought that he was just a liar!
Tiger curled his lips and said, “Turns out that you’re just trash! Who gave you the courage to even bring your fiancée to Shanghai Nights for dinner? Aren’t you afraid that you might go broke after having a meal here?”
Penny’s face flushed red with embarrassment, and she kept her head low and said nothing. Thinking about how she mocked Tiger a moment ago, she felt her face burning in shame.
Just then, Matthew smiled and said, “Tiger, don’t say that. Peter is a big shot that Carlson Group hired. I heard that Carlson Group even arranged for him to live in a large flat in The Grand Pavilion. It’s best if you don’t offend him. Otherwise, your cousin might get mad at you later.”
“Oh really? What’s your building and house number?”
Penny gritted her teeth and asked, “Why are you asking so many questions? It’s not like you’ll know even if we tell you!”
Tiger sneered, “Oh well, I actually do know a lot about the Grand Pavilion. After all, the Grand Pavilion and the Grand Garden were both developed by the construction company under Carlson Group. I know everything about it. Furthermore, I myself have eight flats in the Grand Pavilion for rent! Could it be that the company arranged for you to live in one of my houses?”
There was an instant commotion among the crowd. The starting price of a flat in the Grand Pavilion was 3 million and Tiger owned eight of them. Even if they were all three-room flats, it was worth at least 30
million.
Tiger is a real tycoon!
