Chapter 292
Jason had always been interested in Claire, and he knew about Charlie’s existence, but he had never met him before.
When he finally realized that the man standing in front of him was none other than Claire’s husband, Jason looked at Charlie before pretending to ask him curiously, “I wonder what you are doing now, Charlie?”
Charlie simply replied, “I am a vagrant now.”
There was a flash of disdain in Jason’s eyes as soon as he heard Charlie’s words. Truth be told, he had already had a good impression of Claire when she was still working for the Wilson Group. He had deliberately looked for Claire when he heard that she had already started her own business. Therefore, he was the one who had intentionally thrown out the order for the refurbishment of the convention and exhibition center before inviting Claire over here today.
At this time, Jason felt as though he had to show off his status in front of Charlie. Therefore, he looked at Charlie before he smiled and said, “Charlie, I don’t think you should be here today. All of the people who came to participate in the auto show today are all famous and wealthy people from Aurous Hill. Aren’t you afraid that you will embarrass Claire by showing up here today?”
The expression on Claire’s face changed immediately as soon as she heard Jason’s words because she did not expect Jason to ridicule Charlie. Consequently, Claire naturally felt a little uneasy at this time.
However, before Claire could say anything, Charlie’s eyes turned cold before he replied indifferently, “Do you really think that this auto show is that great? I would not even be here today if it weren’t because of my car.”
“Your car? Do you even know your own place?” Jessica asked as she stared at Charlie with a contemptuous expression on her face. “Don’t you know that all the luxury cars on display here today are worth at least a few million dollars each?! I don’t think you can even afford to buy one of the wheels here!”
Jason laughed before he said haughtily and arrogantly, “Charlie, I understand people like you. You are just a regular live-in son-in-law who is living off your wife and her parents. So, are you hoping that Claire will buy you a car so that you will be able to lift your head high?”
Just then, Claire spoke up with a cold expression on her face. “Mr. Grant, Charlie does not need me to buy a car for him. In fact, Charlie was the one who bought me the car that I am driving right now.”
Jason was taken aback because he did not expect Charlie to be able to buy Claire a car.
Jessica continued staring at Charlie in disdain before she sneered, “Are you sure you can afford to buy Claire a car?”
Jessica looked at Claire before asking, “Claire, what car did your husband buy for you? Is it a Cherry QQ?”
Claire replied immediately, “Charlie bought two cars for our family. He bought me a BMW 520, and he bought a BMW 530 for my father.”
Jessica was slightly surprised. “I truly did not expect your husband to be able to afford to buy you a car.”
At this time, Jason shook his head as he smiled contemptuously. “BMW 520? That is the car that the servants in my house are driving. How could a BMW 520 be good enough for someone like Claire?”
Immediately afterward, Jason looked at Charlie before saying, “Charlie, a BMW 520 is a very cheap car. You only need to pay a hundred thousand dollars for the down payment and you can take a loan to pay for the car. However, all of the luxury cars here today are worth millions of dollars. If all you can afford to buy is just a BMW 5 series, I don’t think you should be at this auto show at all. You should also know that there are two expensive and very luxurious sports cars at this exhibition today. You should take a look at it so you know your own place and where you should stand.”
Charlie smiled indifferently before he pointed at the two luxury cars on the highest platform in the center of the exhibition hall. Then, he asked, “You said that I would not be able to afford any of the luxury cars in this auto show today. If so, let me ask you, those two are the top luxury sports cars in the world. Can you afford to buy those two cars?”
Jason sneered. “I can afford to buy any luxury car in this auto show except for those two cars. What about you? Even if you’re interested in any of the luxury cars here today, I’m sure you will never be able to afford one!”
