After he was done criticizing Charlie, Jason turned around and spoke to Claire. "Claire, I attach great importance to our collaboration this time. To express my sincerity toward you, you can pick any one of the luxury cars here today aside from the two cars in the center of the showroom. Pick any one of these cars since it is already time for you to replace the junk BMW 520 that you are driving right now. How about the Audi RS8? It is a very powerful car, and it is perfect for you!" 6
Jason had been coveting Claire for a long time, and the reason he invited Claire over here today was that h e wanted to use his wealth and power to win Claire over under the guise of renovating the convention and exhibition center. 2
Jessica knew that Jason had always been interested i n Claire. Therefore, she hurriedly said, "Claire, this is a token of appreciation from Mr. Grant. You should not refuse his kind gesture." 2
However, Claire rejected his offer immediately as she said, "Thank you, Mr. Grant, but I cannot accept such a n expensive gift from you."
Jason laughed as he said, "The Audi RS8 is just two million dollars. It is nothing but a little pocket change t o me. As long as you like it, I will pay for it and give it t o you now."
Charlie looked at Jason coldly as he said, "No, thank you. We already have our own cars, and even if Claire wanted a new car, she would not accept a car from you." i
"In that case, would you be the one buying her a new car instead?" Jason quipped satirically. "I am not trying to look down on you, but which car would you b e able to afford to buy for Claire in this showroom today?” 2
Charlie stared at Jason playfully as he pointed at the Aston Martin ONE-77 and the limited edition Bugatti Veyron on the highest platform, smiling and saying, " How about those two cars that you could not afford to buy?" i
"Oh, please!" Jason thought that Charlie was ridiculing him on purpose because he could not afford to buy those cars. Therefore, he replied coldly, "Do not be so arrogant, young man. I've already told you that I can afford to buy all of the cars in this exhibition hall today except for those two cars. Can you afford to do s o?" 4
Charlie smiled before he said, "If I am going to give Claire a new car, I would give her one of those two cars."
"Hahaha!" Jason laughed out loud before saying, "Do you even know what sports cars those are? You are just blowing a whistle here. I am not despising you, but those two cars are guarded by the security guards. You will not even be able to get near the cars, let alone
buy it!"
