Both of them were very depressed as they headed for the first round of maintenance for his Audi A6.
Victor was
very proud of his car but the Ferrari driven by Gerald’s friend made him feel a
little embarrassed.
Both of them
had a tacit understanding and felt that they had to find out the truth behind
Gerald’s friend.
After that, at
the car maintenance shop, as Victor was waiting for the maintenance to be done,
he started a
conversation
with the boss because he wanted to gain some admiration and respect from these
people who were
looking at him
with admiration in their eyes at this time.
At this time,
the person who was responsible for maintaining Victor’s vehicle said, “Sir, I
think that it’s
very wise of you to choose a high-end Audi as your personal
car. Our Audi cars are unlike any of the other
high-end or
luxury cars in the market. For instance, a Ferrari sports car only makes people
feel as though they
are
well-respected. Only rich people would invest in those kinds of cars.”
“Now, most
ordinary wealthy businessmen would focus on cars such as Audi or BMW instead.”
“But, don’t
you think that it is much better to be driving a Ferrari? You’d definitely gain
much more attention
and face if
you are driving a Ferrari!” Whitney could not help but say in a sour manner at
this time.
“Hahaha.
Beauty, you should also take note of who’s using or driving the luxury car,
then. Let’s not talk about
anything else.
Let’s just talk about Ferrari sports cars. These are absolute luxury cars
costing at least a few
hundred
thousands of dollars each. Owning a Ferrari is equivalent to branding yourself
as a rich and wealthy
man.”
“Just a few
days ago, they proposed a set of marketing plans in order to stimulate the
development of the
junior and
middle-class. As long as you’re willing to pay a deposit of seven thousand
dollars, you’ll be
assigned a
designated driver to drive you around in their most luxurious Ferraris!
Moreover, you’d also be
given the opportunity to test drive the car yourself!”
“I’m glad that
the really wealthy people such as yourself aren’t influenced by such vehicles
or offers, Mr.
Wright. On the
contrary, there are many other young people nowadays who aren’t down to earth
and are only
filled with
vanity. Even though their families don’t actually own any big businesses and
despite some of these
people facing
their own financial difficulties, they’re more than willing to pay the deposit
just to satisfy
their own
vanity and have an opportunity to test drive the Ferrari.”
As soon as
they heard the man’s words, Whitney and Victor exchanged glances with one
another.
It seemed as
though a big rock in their hearts had been overturned.
“Sir, do you
mean to say that as long as you’re willing to pay seven thousand dollars,
someone will drive you
around so you
can experience what it feels like to ride in one of those Ferrari sports cars?”
Whitney asked
with a shocked
expression on her face.
“Yes, but
according to insider news, I heard that this promotion will be cancelled in a
few days’ time. This is
because the
promotion seems to be rather useless and many people have criticized Ferrari,
saying that this is
too flashy!”
“Ahh! I finally understand now!”
Whitney heaved
a huge sigh of relief.
It turned out
that in an effort to satisfy his own vanity, Gerald actually spent seven
thousand dollars just to
experience
what it felt like to be driven around in a Ferrari. Whitney could not believe
that Gerald was
actually such
a disgusting person!
At this time,
Whitney was speculating that Gerald was not trying to avoid getting seen by any
students but
instead, he
had intentionally stopped at the entrance so that she would see him getting off
the Ferrari!
This person
was really disgusting!
Pfft!
“Ah-choo!”
Gerald had
just gotten out of the driving test registration center on campus and he
started sneezing as soon as
he walked out
after signing up for the driving test.
This driving
school directly collaborated with the campus and the campus rented out part of
the venue for them
to run a
driving school.
Gerald had
already
decided to buy a car since he only had a few more days until
the end of the
month.
He had to spend the three million dollars on his Universal
Global Supreme Shopper’s Card.
However, how
could he possibly consider buying a car if he did not own a driver’s license?
In the past,
Gerald did not even have money to sign up for the driving test to obtain a
driver’s license. He
finally had
enough money to do so now!
Gerald was
very excited and full of expectations at this time.
But…
He really did
not know why he was sneezing so much lately. Was someone cursing at him?
Hmm…
Gerald decided
to head back to the dormitory to rest. At this time, his cell phone suddenly
rang. It was a
phone call
from his roommate, Harper.
“What’s up,
Harper?”
“Gerald, where
are you? Are you coming back to the dormitory? Alice has suggested that we
should all get
together and
go out. So, should we go? Anyway, Hayley was the one who asked Alice to invite
us to join them…”
As Gerald
listened to Harper’s words, he felt that Harper was
no longer as
masculine as
he used to be ever
since he fell in love with Hayley.
However, he
knew that he should not judge Harper like that. After all, when he was in love,
he was also acting
the same way.
He would
always be thinking of Xavia, and he would always be considering her feelings
first no matter what he
did. When Xavia
was happy, she was happy. When Xavia was sad, he was sad. There was no reason
to explain why he
felt this way.
Perhaps, that
was what it was like to love someone.
“Oh! I don’t
think I’ll be joining you guys. After all, I’m sure Alice wouldn’t want to see
me!” Gerald quickly
