Shortly after, Kevin managed to get some news. With a hint of excitement written all over his face, he told Braxton, “Mr. Irving, I've already checked with my friend. According to him, a few top-notch luxurious cars worldwide were transported from Yaleview recently. However, they are obviously from the black market without proper transport procedure.”
Hearing that, Linda asked in bafflement, “What do you mean by no proper transport procedure?”
“It means this batch of cars is illegal. The cars can't be genuine, as they are either imitations or smuggled.”
Leonard was stupefied. “There are even imitations for this type of sports car?”
“Dad, I bet you never know about this. Some of those who like to show off love to have modifications for certain parts of their car frames so their cars resemble the luxurious ones. You won't spot any difference if you don't take a closer look. However, if you do so and sit in the car, you'll be able to tell if it's an imitation right away. Think about it. Has Jennifer ever been in a luxurious car before? Can she spot any difference? If Donald brags to her about his sports car, won't she believe it right away? What a despicable man. How could he have the audacity to fool Jennifer with an imitation car? I was almost bluffed by him, too.”
In an instant, Braxton burst out laughing.
“Kev, since it's an imitation car, I reckon it's not worth much money. Am I right?”
“Yeah! How much can an imitation car cost? I bet it costs no more than a few hundred thousand.”
“There's six hundred thousand in this card. I want you to do something for me.” Braxton took a bank card from his wallet and handed it to Kevin. Grinning ear to ear, the latter took it immediately.
Ah! My future brother-in-law is undoubtedly generous! He doesn't even think twice about spending six hundred thousand! That's how we define filthy rich and generous!
“Feel free to assign me anything, Mr. Irving. I'll do the best I can!”
“When we reach the parking lot later, I want you to locate his imitation car and smash it.”
“S-Smash it?”
