The whole forenoon.
Jack already felt as if he would collapse.
But Amber was still energetic, as if she would have a battle to fight in each of the stores.
What made Jack worry was if he would be like the little dog that he saw before.
He took a deep breath.
And said, "Amber, you need to take a break and have some lunch."
"Oh my, I forgot about that."
Amber hit herself on the forehead and laughed, "Sorry, Jack, I forgot about lunch, what do you want to eat? It's my treat, to make up for it."
"What do you want to eat?" Jack asked.
"I am okay with anything." Amber aid.
"What about hot pot?" Jack suggested.
Amber shook her head, "It's only noon, if we have hot pot we will carry the smell when we go shopping again."
Jack was a little helpless, she really thought a lot about that.
Then he said, "What about Chinese?"
"Chinese is too oily, I will get fat." Amber shook her head again. "Western food?"
"We have steak every day, I don't wanna have that anymore."
Jack felt a headache, "So what do you want to eat then?" "Anything is fine." Amber said all serious.
Jack was speechless.
Women...
Jack asked a few more patiently, but after he couldn't get an answer, he bit his teeth, and went to the kiosk to get two bowls of cold noodles, and juice, they sat down on a bench and enjoyed their lunch. When they went to college together, the two of them used to eat like this a lot, so none of them felt this was inappropriate.
But just as they were eating and having fun together, a man with a big belly walked pass them.
He subconsciously scanned the two of them, and was stunned by Amber's beauty, and stopped walking.
He looked at Jack, and suddenly showed a grin.Content rights belong to .
"Such a pretty lady, and such a poor guy eating in the hallway, you really deserve better."
Just this one sentence suddenly swept away all the good mood that Jack and Amber had.
Jack's face darkened, and he stood up to look at the man with the big belly.
His eyes were filled with force so that the man had to take a step back.
The man said to Jack, "Little poor kid, what do you want? I am just telling the truth!"
Amber looked at the man.
He was wearing a big golden necklace, golden watch, he was bold and holding a leather hand bag.
He was spreading an aura of a rich person.
She didn't want something so unimportant to ruin hers and Jack's mood.
So she hooked Jack's arm, and said, "Screw it, it's not worth it, you still have to go shopping with me."
Jack was a little calmer after that.
Only then, the fat man saw the bags around Jack and Amber.
He grinned again, "Oh my, I didn't even look at that, so you do have some money, your salary must be at least 10k right?"
"That's none of your business."
Jack replied coldly, and pulled Amber, about to leave.
Amber was his wife, he wouldn't allow anybody to point fingers at her.
The first thing that fat guy had said was clearly just to pick a fight.
Jack didn't want to ruin Amber's mood, otherwise he would have fought back already.
If it was about money, it was simply a few numbers in his eyes.
In this town, there were not many people wealthier than he was.
Even billionaires such as Aiden and Drago were looking up at him.
But what the fat man saw while Jack pulled Amber away was that he waved the white flag, that Jack wanted to leave.
Suddenly, he was more than interested.
His hungry eyes were on Amber, it looked as if he had fire in them, he didn't even hide his lust.
This kind of woman did not belong to a poor boy like Jack.
The man took a step forward and blocked the two of them from leaving.
He slightly raised his head, and said unruly, "Young girl, you won't have a future being with this guy, what can he give you? He only earns like 10k a month, but I guess that is already his limit, and this is all he could ever afford to buy you."
Suddenly, people started surrounding them, watching.
Amber's beauty clearly drew attention.
But people only looked at her from afar and they were just jealous of her, nobody ever went as far as the far man did.
Some of the people were watching Jack with a pitiful look.
This young man must have hit a wall.
The fat man was a rich person, nobody would dare to offend him.
The crowd started to discuss.
Then, as the fat man said those words, Jack's face expression changed drastically, his eyes were cold.
Amber who was standing beside him suddenly laughed.
She looked at the man funnily, "Sir, I like him, and it's enough what he can give me, what do you want to tell me?"
Not bad!
The fat man was stunned.
This pretty lady's question gave him a chance to show her his abilities.
He had seen too many of those little pretty girls, he only had to show a little money, and they would all fall into his arms.
This was his chance and he had to take it.
"I can give you a better future!"
The man stood up straight, and looked at Jack arrogantly, then he raised his right hand, "Do you see this? This is called Green Submariner, it's not very expensive, maybe around 100k."
As he said so, he took out his car keys, "Here, BMW X5, a few hundred thousand."
Then he took a step back, and gestured to himself, saying proudly, "Look at me, wearing all LV, I mean just my belt would cost your boyfriend his whole month's salary."
"And I also have received a few apartments in West Shantytowns when my old house was demolished, if you count all that together, your boyfriend will never have as much, but if you decide to be with me, everything I have is also yours."
His words were filled with pride.
He even felt like using his words to hammer Jack into the ground.
This man was simply and profoundly showing off with his money.
It was as if Jack as the boyfriend didn't even exist.
The crowd was shocked.
They were feeling pity for Jack, but at the same time felt hate for the man.
Where did he take his audacity?
Did he think he was better because he had money?
"Haahaha!"
Amber suddenly laughed out loud, "Wow, Sir, you are great!"
"Just so so, but I am better than your boyfriend for sure, so will you think about it?" The man said to Amber, his eyes filled with lust.
"So you think you are better because of your money?"
Jack asked back coldly.
"Hey, hey, yes I think so! If you had it, you would feel the same way, but why don't you get there first?" The man looked at Jack arrogantly.
Amber on the other hand was laughing and enjoying this.
She didn't even wait for Jack to answer.
She leaned closely to Jack, and said softly, "Hubby, I didn't know that I was so worthy, aren't you mad?"
Jack rubbed his nose, and said helplessly, "I guess it's my fault that I gave those people the good apartments in West Shantytowns after the demolitions."
Swoosh!
The whole crowd was shocked.
Everyone had surprise written on their faces, and started to mumble.
The fat man's face changed immediately, he was startled.
Then, Jack took a step forward, and said to the fat man from a vantage point, "Jack Hughes' wife had no tolerance for profane people like you, if you think that money makes you better, then right on, let me show you what money can do!"
His eyes were cold and sharp like a sword.
"Jack... Jack Hughes? You are the boss of DT?"
The fat man was frozen in shock, he subconsciously took a step back, "What, what do you want to do?"
"I will have you enjoy the VIP room in the hospital ICU."
His voice was cold while his fist flew through the air.
Jack's fist was directed toward the fat man.☐☐☐☐☐☐
