Chapter 0146
“Look quick, everyone, check out Miss Chesire’s face–it’s totally changed!”
Behind the service counter, a few female clerks had been keeping an eye on the drama unfolding.
Seeing Amber’s stunned expression, they could not hide their glee. “Isn’t her hubby loaded? Why
doesn’t he just buy the car?”
“I bet they blew all their cash on that HBLY–GT they bought last time!”
“She was all talk earlier, saying money was no object. Look at her now! Talk about shooting yourself in
the foot, or better yet, slapping her own face!”
The clerks bantered with a venomous delight, unable to earn a commission and taking their frustration
out that way. They had been full of regret, but it seemed they would be having the last laugh. They
watched Alexander and Amber from afar, smirking.
Alexander ignored the snide clerks, gently caressed little Olivia’s cheek in his arms, and smiled. “Olivia,
let’s get this car for Grandpa, shall we?”
Olivia, barely four and clueless about money, asked in her sweet, soft voice, “Okay, Daddy.
“But didn’t the lady say there were two available? You’re getting one for Grandpa, but what about
Grandma? Shouldn’t we get one for her, too?”
Alexander chuckled and playfully tousled his daughter’s hair, flashing a casual smile at the
saleswoman. “You caught that? My little girl wants to spoil her grandparents. Let’s go with her wish. I’ll
take two of them!”
What? Two?!

The dealership went dead quiet. The saleswoman in front of him, along with her colleagues at the
service counter, seemed to turn to stone, their eyes wide and unblinking.
Buying both cars? Just on his daughter’s whim?!
Two cars meant shelling out a hefty 26 million dolla
either. It was a spectacle that would send Porsche fans worldwide into a frenzy, dominating headlines
and becoming the talk of the town.
That was not just splurging. It was like the arrival of a living, breathing Midas,
making even the wealthiest tycoon in Ol‘ Mare look tame by comparison.

“What’s the hold–up? Any trouble?” Alexander asked, gently pinching Olivia’s cheek, his voice soft but
firm. “Sort out the paperwork. I plan to drive them off the lot today. Any problems with that?”
“M–Mister Kane,” the saleswoman stammered, her excitement making her voice
quiver, “I need to check with the boss. We can sell the cars to you, but…one of them
is at an international show. I’m afraid we can’t bring it over today.”
Hoping not to upset Alexander, she rushed to clarify, “Mister Kane, it’s not about the
money. Even if we arrange for immediate air shipment from the manufacturer,
there’s still a bunch of customs red tape to deal with.
“By tomorrow, at the latest, I promise I’ll persuade the boss and ensure the
manufacturer gets your car for you!”
Tomorrow?
“That’ll work.”
Alexander got the situation–the saleswoman was just dealing with a slight delay. He whipped out his
sleek American Express card with a small smile. “Go ahead and
clear the bill for the cars. I want everything ready to roll out by tomorrow. I’m
thinking of matching colors for a pair of cars. One black, one red, for a couple.”
He had his in–laws in mind that Patrick would take the black, and Susanne the red.
Despite their age, their love was as vibrant as ev
their love was as vibrant as ever. They would adore the matching
set.
“Absolutely, Mister Kane. We’ll do it just as you say!”
Clutching the American Express card like a lifeline, the saleswoman dashed to the counter, her heart
pounding, and processed the payment for both vehicles.
A cheerful ring rang out from the POS machine, which signified the transfer of 3.6
million dollars.

“It’s… It’s through…”
The other saleswomen were shell–shocked as they eyed the composed figures of
Alexander and Amber and their young colleague. Their minds were in a whirl, eyes
brimming with a mix of shock and envy.
This was insanity!
With a sale of 3.6 million, that saleswoman was about to bag a commission well over

She was on top of the world!
No joke, that one sale catapulted her to a level of success that the others–with their
snooty attitudes–could not hope to reach in a lifetime of sales.
“Mister Kane, the transaction’s complete!”
Beaming, the saleswoman hurried over to Alexander, handing back the American
Express card with reverence. “Everything will be at your doorstep by tomorrow,
guaranteed!”
Alexander paused briefly with a smile. “Dad should be at the office tomorrow. Give me a ring then, and
I’ll fill you in on where to meet.‘
Without waiting for the saleswoman to reply, he scooped up Olivia, gestured for
Amber to follow, and they left the dealership.
It was not until their figures had vanished that the saleswoman could react.
“Two cars. 3.6 million…” She clutched her face, tears streaming down in joy. “I’m rich, I’m actually rich!
Mister Kane even tossed in a Porsche for me… I can’t believe
my luck!”
The other clerks at the counter were as white as ghosts, only then snapping out of
their daze.
It was not just luck. Mister Kane was on another level of lavishness–money was no
object to him!
