Super Rich Man by kiang Chapter 40

Don’t Pretend!

Gerald is no longer angry at how Leon and Rachel became closer now. He wouldn’t try to steal her attention unless he is willing to fight against Jason for the second time.

When Rachel saw Gerald, she was struck by an odd feeling. It’s only been a few days since she last saw him, but how did his demeanor change tremendously?

Yenni went off at Leon again. “Leon, watch your tone when you’re talking to Gerald! Quick, apologize to him!”

Leon shot daggers at Yenni without saying a word. He’s had enough of her talking!

Leon will never hit women. But if there were no one else around, he would’ve gone and shaved Yenni’s head clean!

Leon took Rachel by the hand and entered the mall, leaving Yenni with Gerald. He plans on buying Rachel a gift.

He took Rachel to a watch shop. Without saying anything, the employees immediately offered them the latest models for women.

“Rachel, choose whichever you like, and I’ll get it for you,” Leon said while holding Rachel’s delicate hand. He chose a few models that might suit her.

Rachel couldn’t bring herself to accept such an expensive gift. Ever since she was born, she has never worn luxury items. She even had to save up for meals.

“I… I don’t need this. It’s very expensive, it would be a waste of money,” Rachel whispered to Leon.

Rachel was shocked by the price of the watches. On the price tags were written fifty to two million dollars!

She couldn’t digest it; the price of a watch is more expensive than the house she is living in.

Leon gave her a sweet smile. “Don’t think about it. Just choose one. It’s a gift from me,” he said to assure her.

She only had to choose a watch, when Leon could even give her a hotel.

Rachel suddenly felt something was amiss. Since when Leon had such amount of money? He wasn’t kidding, right? The watches are priced at over two million dollars each… Rachel knew he didn’t own that much.

“Leon, where did you get your money from? Stop pretending to be rich when you’re nothing compared to Gerald!” Yenni suddenly appeared behind Rachel and Leon.

“You’re being too much!” Leon smiled while holding his anger towards Yenni.

“Did I say anything wrong? Stop pretending. You won’t even afford the cheapest model available!” she added arrogantly.

Yenni knew Leon and Gerald are enemies, and she used the opportunity to gain Gerald’s favor.

“If I can’t afford the watch, why would I pretend and come here?” Leon asked coldly.

“Easy reason is because you don’t want Gerald to beat you and take Rachel away from you! I’m waiting to see what you’re going to sell next to earn money!” Yenni said sarcastically at Leon.

Yenni kept on spitting unnecessary comments.

“How do you know I sold my house to afford this watch? How about I just take this watch?” Leon challenged her.

“Be prepared for prison life then! You’re stealing because you can’t afford an expensive give for the woman you like. What a sad man!” Yenni laughed.

More nonsense came out of her mouth as she spoke. She forgot that she is also a sad woman who betrayed her best friend in exchange of money.

“Now I shall let you see, the poor image you have in mind!” declared Leon.

He took the most expensive watch and put it on Rachel’s hand. None of the shop employees said a word or tried to stop him. The shop owner is choosing his watch, they have no right to stop him from doing so.

For Leon owns the Oregon Avenue and everything in it.

Rachel looked at the shop employees in bewilderment. “This man is a liar. Do you believe he can pay for the watch he took? Quick, catch him!”

The employees looked back at Rachel as if she is crazy.

Customers can test the product even if they don’t make the purchase. Besides the products’ value, the services offered by such brands are also an important factor.

Rachel was confused at how none of the employees said anything to Leon.

What confused her even more was how Gerald didn’t open his mouth to fight Leon.

She recalled that if he didn’t mock or curse at Leon, that wasn’t Gerald at all.

“Gerald, Rachel is an innocent girl who is too easily carried away by gifts and sweet words. But you are still the best, and this is a chance to show her what you’ve got!” Yenni said to Gerald.

Gerald felt nauseated at what Yenni said.

“I just got out of the hospital! If you’re trying to go to hell, then do it yourself! Stop dragging me with you!” Gerald lashed out at her.

“Mr. Leon, Sir, this has nothing to do with me!” he said to convince Leon.

“What?! I have no subordinate like you!” Leon gave him a confused stare.

“Ma’am…” Gerald called to Rachel.

Rachel was surpised and speechless when she heard it. She wondered if she appeared that old.

Yenni stood in shock at the exchange she saw.

Gerald was crazy after Rachel. He didn’t have to end up like this just because he was rejected!

Yenni was dazed. What happened at the rich and handsome man she used to know? Did they feed him the wrong drug?

Although Gerald wasn’t aware of Leon’s actual status, now he knew Leon is a great figure within the Wijaya family.

Yenni tried to persuade Gerald again. “Gerald are you drunk? Quickly choose a watch and give it to Rachel. Leon will be so embarrassed!”

Yenni is indeed foolish. What does Gerald have to take? The Wijayas own this store!

“I’m sorry to disappoint you, but I own this watch store. Not only I am free to choose the watch I want, I can also have it without paying,” Leon said to Yenni with a smile.

The employees nodded in agreement to support Leon’s statement.

Gerald had seen it coming. Even the five-star hotel is under Leon’s name. Owning this store isn’t something extraordinary for him.

Yenni and Rachel was shocked; they didn’t expect Leon to own such a luxurious shop!

“Leon… you…” Rachel was at a loss for words.

“Rachel, I will explain it to you, but not now,” Leon said. Now is not the time to tell her that he is the sole heir of the Wijaya family.

For her own safety, it’s better for Rachel to know less about him. Too much information might complicate the situation.

Leon admitted the shop is his because he had a plan in mind.

The first is to make Yenni shut her mouth, and the second is to show outsiders a hint of Leon’s true power.

Rachel nodded her head. “Alright,” she softly replied, although she is curious and excited to hear Leon’s explanation.

She still believed that Leon has been sincere in helping her.

On the other hand, Yenni didn’t believe what Leon said. She thought he was lying.

“Stop pretending, Leon! I don’t believe you!”

She suddenly gave Leon a cynical look. “Forget it! If its true you had money, why did you have to work for the last four years in school?” she challenged.

Gerald has had enough of Yenni’s trash talk and moved his hand in action!

“Slap! Slap!”

“Does Sir Leon have to pretend? You’re being foolish! If you want to suffer, then suffer for yourself!” Gerald shouted at her in frustration.

“Gerald, why did you hit me? The person you have to hit is Leon!” Yenni said in annoyance.

“You stupid girl! You’re trying to kill me! Do you hold a grudge against me? Go away from my life!” he said seriously.

Yenni’s heart broke at Gerald’s words; she felt tortured.

How did the young master of the Chow family be so afraid of a poor kid like Leon?

And to sell his dignity by referring to Leon as ‘Sir’?

Or perhaps Leon’s mistress is a powerful woman of high position?
