The foreign driver nodded hurriedly before he said, " Okay, chairman. I will go right now!"
After that, he opened the trunk of the Rolls-Royce Phantom before he took all the suitcases from Paul's hand and placed them in the trunk.
After he was done, he asked Matilda, "Chairman, aren’t you and the general manager going to the Shangri-La hotel in this car?" i
Matilda nodded before he said, "I will be going there in my old classmate's car. You can leave first." i
Jacob looked at the new and luxurious Rolls-Royce Phantom in front of him and he could not help but feel particularly uneasy at this time. 5
He could clearly tell the value of this car. 1
An ordinary car like this would have cost at least eight or nine million dollars. Furthermore, this car was equipped with a golden man logo which was made out of pure gold. This would cost them an extra two hundred thousand dollars! 7
Jacob could not help but feel a little more inferior at this time.
Therefore, he hurriedly said, "Oh, Matilda, perhaps you should just take your Rolls-Royce Phantom to Shangri-La. My car is just a very normal and low-grade car. I a
m afraid that you will not be used to it. I do not want you to suffer any grievances because of me." 1
Matilda replied seriously, "Jacob, we have already known each other for so many years. Do you really think that I am the kind of person who loves vanity so much?" 7
Jacob felt very embarrassed.
He hesitated for a short while before he said, "I simply own an ordinary BMW 5 Series. I am afraid that it would not be worthy enough for you..." 1
Matilda was a little angry and he said, "Jacob, why does it seem as though you care so much about all these things now? I do not care if you came to pick me up in a Rolls-Royce or a BMW 5 Series. I do not even care if you came to pick me up on the bike that used t o be very popular amongst all the male students. All of it is simply a means of transportation anyway. Don't talk about a BMW 5 Series. Even if you came to pick m e up on a bike today, I would be willing to take a ride o n it." 7
After that, Matilda smiled before she said, "However, I guess it would actually be a little difficult for me to ride a bike with you at my age now." 3
Jacob felt a lot more comfortable and relieved after listening to Matilda's words. 1
