Chapter 18

"just like you, lost to reality,"Erwin responded with a wry smile, as he indeed had been defeated by the harsh truths of life.

He had worked diligently at his previous company, eventually becoming the production director, but after offending the management, all his three years of hard work came to naught.

"It's okay, we can still keep working hard, as long as we're breathing, there is hope. By the way, did you come here to buy a car?" Ruby cheered up Erwin for a while, then asked curiously.

"Well, I'm looking to buy a Ferrari, what's the price on the priciest Ferrari you have here?"

Erwin inquired absentmindedly.

Yet his words left Ruby momentarily speechless with suprise; she hadn't expected Erwin to have become so wealthy after not crossing paths for three years.

"Considering a failure but able to purchase a Ferrari, are you kidding me?" Even though shocked, Ruby still felt incredibly happy for Erwin.

"It's my boss's wish; I couldn't possibly have that kind of money. I just work for the boss and carry out tasks as a subordinate." Erwin smiled bashfully, choosing not to reveal the truth, and instead leisurely fabricated a story, thinking it better to stay humble.

"That's still far better than my sales job here." Ruby was surprised but was content to assist the boss in buying a Ferrari and carrying out her duties compared to her faltering career.

As they reminiscent about the past, some senior salesperson not far away shook their heads, gossiping about Ruby.

"My goodness, the newbie really can't tell at all. It's obvious that kid has no money but still chats so enthusiastically."

"Let her be, besides, finally someone is willing to entertain that poor kid, so it's not longer our problem. If the kid complain, it's not us who will be punished."

"That's right, look there is another customer."

While the senior salesperson gossiped, they spotted a middle-aged man in fine clothes entering through the door. He wore branded apparel and a shiny watch on his wrist, complemented by a young , beautiful, and glamorous woman at his side. Just by looking, you could tell the man was wealthy.

"Listen everybody, let me take care of that one~"

"I should do it, I haven't met my monthly target yet~"

"Don't fight with me..."

The senior salesperson scrambled to attend to this new customer.

At this moment, Erwin glanced over at the senior salesperson, noticing the stark difference in how they treated him versus the customer.

Erwin smiled slightly and promptly said to Ruby,"Ny the way, haven't you introduced the available cars to me? Which is the most expensive Ferrari in this store? I heed one available right away, no need to order, as my boss is in a hurry."
