You Can't Afford It

"Honey, why do I smell a very strange, stinky smell in this place? It's so smelly!" The woman even made an exaggerated expression as she covered her mouth and nose with her hand when she spoke.

In fact, this pair looked like a pair of father and daughter. But after hearing the woman call the man "honey", Alger was a bit startled.

Just when he was about to speak, Alina directly came forward and looked at the woman before shouting with a deep voice, "You look all prim and proper; how can you be such an indecent person?"

Seeing Alina step up for him, Alger felt really shocked in his mind.

For so long, Alina had always looked upset whenever she saw Alger, and she even sneered at him sometimes. Alger even heard Alina trying to convince Winnie to get a divorce several times.

But who would have thought Alina would come up and rebuke this woman in his stead?

A while later, Alger finally understood. Although Alina still looked down on Alger right now, she was also here to pick a house together with Alger after all.

Also, when this woman spoke just now, she was apparently talking about Alina as well. So Alina's hot temper immediately burst out in a blink.

"Haha. Do you think low-class people like you are qualified to talk to us about decency?" the woman looked at Alina and said with disdain.

The middle-aged man next to the woman also glared at Alina, then said to the saleswoman beside him, "Are you selling houses here? If so, kick these beggars out of here. We don't want to see these guys!"

Once the middle-aged man finished talking, Tommy, who was standing behind him, took out some cards from his pockets and said, "Did you hear what he said clearly? We have money. Kick these two people out!"

The saleswoman pondered in her mind. If she sold this house, the commision she would get would be enough for her to survive the next few years, so she directly chose to obey Tommy.

The saleswoman looked at Alger and Alina and said in a tactful way, "Sir, if you're not planning to buy a house here, please step aside. Please don't affect the other customers, okay?"

Alger ignored the saleswoman. He only looked at Tommy.

When they were studying in college, Alger treated Tommy genuinely and sincerely, but who would have thought that Tommy was such a person?

Even when he met Alger here, he pretended that Alger was a stranger!

Alina frowned and said, "What's wrong with you? We came here first. And you're asking us to leave?"

Alina felt very upset in her heart. Even though she knew Alger couldn't afford the houses here, she wasn't willing to be kicked out in such a humiliating manner.

Compared to Alina's anger, Alger seemed a bit calmer. "I don't understand what you mean by high-class and low-class. Who gave you the confidence to think that you're high-class people?"

"Besides, we indeed came here first. Even if they're also interested in the villa, shouldn't you ask me if I want to buy it first?" Alger looked at the saleswoman and said, "What do you think?"

The saleswoman immediately became very embarrassed. She looked at Alger and said, "But, sir, you need to know that this villa costs a total of five million dollars."

Before Alger could speak, the woman said again, "Oh, let alone five million, I guess you don't even have ten thousand?"

She said as she sized Alger up with deep disdain in her eyes.

Alger didn't really care about these things. He said coldly, "How do you know I don't have money? Have you looked at my card?"

"You!" The woman was enraged by Alger's attitude. She immediately said furiously, "Haha, show me some proof. There's no way you can buy this villa!"

Alger looked at the woman with a faint smile and said, "Oh, really? How about we make a bet? If I don't have money, I'll do whatever you want me to do. The same goes for you. If I buy the villa, what would you do?"

The woman was angered by Alger's behavior, so she directly agreed to the bet. "I'll kneel and kowtow to you. I'll also get the hell out of here!"

"Good! Remember what you said!" Alger nodded and said.

Then, Alger directly took out a gilded card from his pocket and said to the saleswoman, "I'll buy this villa in full!"

Everyone was first startled. When they collected themselves, they looked at Alger mockingly.

Apparently, they didn't believe what Alger said and thought he was pretending right now.

Everyone's reaction surprised Alger a little. Then, a thought suddenly came to his mind. This card seemed to be a bit uncommon, which was why these people here had never seen it before!

Thus, it was also normal that the saleswoman and the woman would have such an expression.

Different from the others, the middle-aged man was immediately stunned the moment he saw the card. Since he had seen it once before, he knew clearly what this card represented!

Alina looked at Alger and said in frustration, "Alger, I simply thought that Winnie wouldn't be able to live a good life with you at first."

"But now, I finally realize that not only do you have no money, there's even something wrong with your brain!"

"I truly don't understand what was wrong with Winnie back then. Why did she marry someone like you?"

Alger didn't care about what Alina said. He directly placed the card on the table next to him and said, "I know you don't believe me, but this only shows that you're ignorant. Go and try it, and you'll know if I'm right."

The saleswoman frowned and looked at Alger, seemingly hesitant.

The woman on the side saw this and said as she gave a mocking smile, "Try it. We'll be here to see how this man embarrasses himself later!"

Hearing what the woman said, the saleswoman nodded and left with Alger's card. Only that middle-aged man glanced at Alger with hesitation.

He seemed to be doubting if the card in Alger's hands was real while simultaneously thinking that Alger was just pushing his luck.

A moment later, they saw the saleswoman return. This time, she acted like she was a completely different person from before. She said respectfully, "Sir, I'm so sorry. I made a mistake just now."

What was going on?

Everyone was really shocked.

The woman also said in astonishment, "What's wrong with you? Is what this man said true?"

Alina was also stunned by this. She looked at Alger in shock. She apparently couldn't believe it.

The saleswoman looked at Alger in fear. When she went back just then, she talked to her manager about it. The manager then asked their boss before finally realizing what this Black Card represented.

What the card represented was truly something they didn't even dare to think about!
