Chapter 81
Upon seeing the transaction went through, Everyone in the scene was absolutely dumbfounded.
Their jaws dropped and their eyes nearly popped out of their sockets. They couldn't wrap their heads around the fact that the poor-looking kid had just casually dropped seven million dollars like it was pocket change.
"How is this possible?"
the senior lady stammered, her face as white as a sheet.
"Where on earth did a child get that kind of money?"
Her mind started racing with possibilities, each more outlandish than the last and she couldn't come up with anything, seeing Ethan alone one could tell he doesn't have 100 dollars but how come.
The man's brow furrowed in shock, his eyes narrowing with suspicion as he gazed at Ethan.
"This doesn't add up,"
he muttered under his breath. "There's no way a kid from a normal family could have that much cash. He must be hiding something, something none of us had refused to open our eyes to see."
Suddenly, an idea hit him.
immediately he exchanged a worried glance with the lady , the color draining from their faces.
'Oh my god,'
the senior lady whispered, her voice trembling.
'He must be from some super-rich family that we've never heard of or seen. And we just insulted him to his face!'
At that moment Panic gripped their hearts as they realized the gravity of their mistake.
They knew they had to do something, and fast. The senior lady plastered on a fake smile so wide, it looked like her face might crack.
" Handsome looking young man with a bright future!"
She cooed, her voice dripping with false sincerity.
"We were just playing around earlier. Of course we knew you could afford the house! We never doubted you for a second."
The man immediately nodded vigorously to what the lady just said, his head bobbing up and down like a dashboard ornament. "Absolutely! It was all in good fun, my friend. No hard feelings, right? all those advice I said earlier was just child play, I should be the one taking advice from you"
He clapped Ethan on the back, his hand shaking slightly.
"Will your family be staying with you, Mr Ethan?"
She asked, her voice smooth as silk. "We'd be happy to accommodate them as well, if we are the one going to be doing the furnishing we would love to know what they like, so we can come up with something Spectacular."
Ethan shook his head, with a bright smile on his face.
"Nah, it's just me. I chose this place because it's close to my university. I'll be living alone."
Upon hearing what Ethan just said the manager and the senior lady exchanged a shocked glance. "Living alone?"
the manager repeated, her eyebrows shooting up to her hairline.
"At your age? Your family must be extraordinarily wealthy to allow that."
Ethan just shrugged, not seeming to care about their words.
The manager, sensing an opportunity, leaned forward in her chair.
"You know, Sir Ethan, we also offer furnishing services and interior design just in case you don't like the one in house."
She said, her voice as smooth as honey.
"We could help you decorate your new home at a very reasonable price."
But Ethan waved her off, with a confident smile on his face. "Thanks, but no thanks. I've already got that covered."
The manager nodded, but she was a little disappointed but not wanting to push the issue any further.
She then turned to the senior lady, with a broad smile spreading across her face.
"Well, my dear, it looks like you've just made the sale of a lifetime!"
She exclaimed, her voice booming with enthusiasm.
"Ten percent commission, a promotion, a raise in position! You're moving up in the company."
Upon hearing what the boss just said, The senior lady's face lit up like a Christmas tree.
She couldn't believe her luck. Just a few minutes ago, she was ready to quit her job. but the kid didn't take everything she said into heart, now she is on top of the world.
But just as she was about to say something, Ethan spoke up, his voice cutting through the air like a knife.
"Unfortunately, she'll be resigning soon."
