Chapter 106 Will be fixed.
"Thank-" Chris smiled hearing his offer, however he was a bit hasty in doing that, since Taylor wasn't fully done speaking yet.
"And since we both will be playing in Bumper cars, how about a bet?" Taylor finished his words with a small smile.
Thank-" Chris smiled hearing his offer, however he was a bit hasty in doing that, since Taylor wasn't fully done speaking yet.
"And since we both will be playing in Bumper cars, how about a bet?" Taylor finished his words with a small smile.
"What kind of bet?" Chris narrowed his eyes at Taylor and questioned.
"Well, just a casual bet between friends. If you win, I will recharge your golden card with 500 thousand dollars." Taylor offered after thinking for a few seconds.
'500k is a casual bet…?!' Chris gulped his saliva and looked at Taylor, "And if you win?"
"If I win…" Taylor turned to look at Cathy who was standing with Cassie a bit far away. Her long red gown looked elegant and exuded mature charm that was rarely to be found in girls her age.
For example Alia exuded quite sexy vibes and charisma, however she in no way seemed to be 'mature'.
And similarly for Kiara, her gorgeousness was overshadowed by her arrogance and childish hatred.
"I want to go on a date with her." Taylor turned back to look into Chris's eyes which seemed to be on fire, drilling holes into Taylor's own ashen gray eyes.
"What did you just say?" Chris hissed in a low voice, this bastard wanted to go on a date with Cathy? Especially after what she just went through?
"I wanted to go on a date with her. But I guess it's too much to ask for in a normal bet. I want 100k$ worth of your Luminescent Cream." Taylor saw Chris's anger and quickly changed his offer.
Since something felt off about this guy who Taylor had met on the beach. He no longer had the weak look in his eyes, he stood tall and confidence was brimming within him.
And Taylor had a good eye to judge people, thus, he knew that there was no advantage in offending this guy.
"Luminescent Cream…?" Chris was confused before his brain gears churned and he remembered one of his most successful business ventures ever!
Due to the recent turn of events, he had nearly even forgotten about his plan of opening a huge cosmetics brand!
"Ah, we decided to change the name of the brand and it's currently not being manufactured because the factory was too slow and low grade."?Chris sighed and answered to Taylor after he had calmed his nerves down more.
"I see. What did you change the name to?" Taylor asked curiously and continued, "As for the factory, I actually have land in the outskirts of the city, I can sell it to you in return for your company's equity."
"Well, the paperworks for the company hasn't been finished yet. But we are planning to name it 'Aria'." Chris answered Taylor's question and nodded, "I would rather buy the land in money rather than the equity though."
"Everyone would haha, but land so close to our SeaShell city isn't that easy to acquire, you know." Taylor chuckled, "Most of those lands belong to the government and royals or rich families like ours."
"Seems quite precious then. Why are you willing to sell it to us?" Chris raised his eyebrows in surprise. Is this bastard having some more ulterior motives and is trying to please Cathy with his wealth?
"Well, I feel the product you are selling is very, very interesting." Taylor smiled mysteriously.
Suspicious, Chris stared at Taylor for a few more seconds before shrugging, "Ohh? Well let's discuss the terms later then."
"Indeed. So, as for what I want in return for the bet, I will take the 100k$ worth Aria Cream then." Taylor nodded.
"Hmm, alright. And it's called Aria's anti-aging cream." Chris nodded back and corrected.
"Aria, huh? It's a nice name. Any important reason behind this specific name?"
Hearing the question, Chris paused for a moment, his mind automatically flashing the lovely moments he had spent together with his dear girlfriend. Of course there was a reason behind naming the company Aria other than it was a great name for the company. Aria was the name of his girlfriend, after all.
So naming his company after her name can be considered a kind of a surprise for her.
"Nah, not really. I just liked the name." Chris smiled and chose not to answer Taylor's question truthfully.
"I see, that's good. I will get a card for you guys then." Taylor chose not to stress for the answers and gestured to a worker to come over.
He whispered some words in the worker's ears, causing the worker's eyes to widen as he quickly scurried towards the counter and relayed the message to the manager who was coincidentally also helping in registering new cards for new customers.
As soon as the manager heard the full message, he took a quick peek at Taylor and opened a drawer, pulling out a brand new shiny golden-white coloured card. Its metallic sheen was glowing in the whole gaming zone while the golden plating was glimmering in the room.
The worker who had come before returned again and asked in a very polite submissive tone, "S-Sir, how much would you like to charge the card with?"
Hearing the question, Taylor hummed and stroked his trimmed handsome orange beard and answered, "Just charge it with 50k$ for now." he shrugged carelessly as if 50k$ were worth nothing for him and turned to Chris, "My treat."
'His treat? This bastard is throwing away 50k like they are pocket change…' Chris's eyebrows twitched as he smiled at Taylor, after all, rejecting the gifts was impolite.
'50k is pocket change? Well, I will become so rich that even 500k will be a candy.' Chris vowed in his mind, his heart burning in motivation.
"Well, I also asked the worker to reserve three cars for us in the queue. It will take about 20 minutes, so till then me and Alia will go have some fun." Taylor ignored Chris's inner thoughts and waved his hands casually, taking his leave.
"Well, he isn't that bad of a guy." Max hummed as Taylor walked further into the gaming zone.
"I suppose." Chris didn't bother to think much about Max's take on Taylor's nature. All he knew was that Taylor held some fancy for his sister, something that Chris wasn't much pleased with.
If it was before, Chris might have played around more and teased Cathy. Maybe he might have even played as a matchmaker for them.
But now? After the incident? No. He wasn't in any mood to trust anyone, he didn't want his sister to go through something like that again. Not to mention Cathy herself despised dating now.
So even if Chris agreed, there was no way Cathy would agree.
…
"M-Myra, look I won a prize… you can have it…" Chris who was walking back to his sisters, suddenly paused as he heard a familiar voice and mention of the name.
He turned around, staring at a group of youngsters who stood in front of a claw machine. In the center was a chubby young man who was holding a white colored cute unicorn soft toy in his hands.
He seemed to be avoiding eye contact to the woman as he tried to offer his winning prize to the girl he fancied. The prettiest girl in the group, Myra.
Anyone would have been elated by such an heartwarming gesture, alas, the pretty girl Myra, the queen, wasn't any random 'anyone'. How could she be pleased by a pathetic little soft toy gifted by a pathetic average man such as Sid?
"Ohh? Chris, you remember them?" Max hummed in amusement and turned to Chris.
"Yeah, the world sure is small." Chris sighed and tried to tear his eyes away from another pathetic display by the poor Sid. Alas, he couldn't.
He was also attracted to the juicy drama just like the rest of the passingby's were. They all had their eyes glued to the ongoing drama, wanting to see the result of Sid's daring approach.
However this many eyes on him simply made Sid more uncomfortable as he fiddled with his fingers. Yet, he still didn't take his hands away from Myra. Embarrassed or not, he wasn't going to back down from this.
'Ohh? This bastard is useful for once.' Myra smirked as she saw everyone's eyes were glued on her. After all, the only thing a queen wanna-be like her craved for was attention.
And she was getting that now,how could she refuse?
