StarNovelChapter 23 The rich man released a sigh of relief when Samuel did not fish his wallet out. Arrogance returned to his expression.
"He's done for! His claim was just a claim, after all," the man said, landing the kick on a downed person. "If you really cup with the excuse that you didn't bring your wallet, you'll be a laughing stock." The pretty woman grinned with sarcasm. "My poor man... Can you please not disturbwhile I'm buying clothes? Get out of here. How embarrassing." Linda quietly tugged on the sleeve of Yvonne's shirt." Let's leave first," she said in a low tone. "Don't embarrass yourself with him. I can't take the shame." Yvonne stared at Samuel, baffled. Was he boasting to save face? He was not that sort of person. Why did he do something like this then? She shook her head and walked to his side. "Did you forget to bring your wallet?" she asked.
Samuel wore an awkward expression. He did bring his wallet, but he had given his card to Liam. He had totally forgotten about it.

Linda's face was as red as a beetroot, and the tips of her ears flamed. She wanted to walk away for a long tnow, but Yvonne was her best friend. It would be extremely disloyal of her to walk away just like that.
"Listen to me, Yvonne." Linda walked over to her, grabbing her hand. "Let him be embarrassed by himself. He was the one who boasted about it." "If you don't have enough money, it's still acceptable to walk out now, sir." The shop assistant directly told him to leave. She did not have the patience to waste any more twith Samuel.
At this moment, a young man ran into the store, huffing and panting. He skidded over to Samuel, thrusting a credit card towards him. "Mr. Hannigan, here's your credit card." Samuel was surprised at the sight of the young man before him. The credit card in his hands was definitely his. It seemed that Liam had asked someone to send it over.
The rich man wanted to throw out a few more ridiculing phrases, but all the color suddenly drained out of his face once he recognized the face of the young man who gave the credit card.
He had joined in the fun this morning at the auction for Hillside Villa. Was he not the one who offered a bid at eighty-nine million dollars? Everyone at the auction knew that the mysterious bidder did not wish to appear, so he found someone to take his place. Now the syoung man thrust the credit card at Samuel. It did not matter if the nouveau riche man was an idiot, he would still be able to guess that Samuel was the mysterious bidder that everyone in Cloud City wanted to know about.
His legs trembled involuntarily and the fat on his cheeks jiggled, as though an electric motor had been installed in his face. He had bought Hillside Villa at a shocking price of eighty-nine million dollars. He did not even dare to consider this young man's identity! Only one word emerged in the nouveau riche man's mind. 'Get out!' More accurately, it was 'run', because he was aware that he was in no position to provoke the man before him.
"Let's go," the nouveau riche man said quietly to the pretty woman beside him.
The pretty woman wanted to preserve her dignity, and she did not believe that that card had enough credit in it. It could just be a ploy, finding someone to act up a storm. "Go where? The show isn't over yet. I want to see if that card has any money in it." The nouveau riche man was so angry that he wanted to choke the pretty woman to death. Was she trying to dig her own grave by picking a bone with someone as rich as him? Linda's fingers curled into anxious fists when Samuel handed the credit card over to the cashier. Cold sweat slicked down her palms. Anxiety also started to overtake Yvonne Sue.

Samuel looked at Yvonne. "Why don't you key in the PIN?" he said, smiling.
"Huh?" Yvonne stared at him, stunned. Why would he let her key in the PIN? She did not even know the combination.
"Try it," Samuel said.
The first series of numbers that popped into Yvonne's mind was the day of their wedding anniversary. Was it really...
"Hey, it's enough for you to embarrass yourself." Linda glared at Samuel, huffing with resentment. "Why drag Yvonne into this and get her embarrassed too?"
