“Stop saying,” Sampson interrupted her.
He was also in a dilemma. He had no choice but to admit that Maria’s words indeed seared through the
weakest part of his heart.
Indeed, he never contributed to the family business at all. Warner was the one doing all the matter.
He had enjoyed the high social status given by his family but he had done nothing for the family.
“Let me think about it.” Sampson lowered his head.
“Okay, I wait to hear your good news then.” Maria did not keep forcing him.
Since he agreed that he would think about it, then there was a possibility to make it happen.
After all, he explicitly refused her last time.
“But, don’t take too long. That won’t be good for both of us.”
Sampson did not utter a word and left.
Dolores closed the chatting application and had finalized the style and the material of the fabric with the
customer. Now, the fabric would be made in Country A as the custom-made full dress or the bridal
gown was handmade.
As the store here was not ready yet, the fabric could only be made in Country A.
She closed the lid of the computer and rubbed her brow. She thought of the matter that Jessica would
face inconvenience when Jessica went out with the two children. So, she wanted to buy a car. Thinking
of this, she took out the paper with the phone number given by Terry from her pocket.
She dialled the number accordingly and the call was quickly gotten through.
“Hello”
Terry’s voice sounded.
“Hello, this is Dolores.”
“Oh, oh, I get it.”
“Are you free”
“Yes.”
“I want to buy a car but I haven’t been in China for many years so I’m not very familiar with it. If you’re
free, can you bring and accompany me for that”
“Okay, I’ll arrive in your residence area after half an hour.”
“Alright, I’ll wait for you.”
After hanging up the call, Dolores saved his number.
Since he needed half an hour, she still had some time. She went to take a shower and changed her
dress into a pant and a T-shirt as she needed to see the car later. If there was a demo car for test-drive,
it would be inconvenient for her to get in and out of the car while wearing a dress.
After she finished packing her things, Terry also arrived.
She locked the door and went downstairs.
Terry waited at the entrance of her residence area. Seeing her come out, he got out of the car and
helped her to open the back door.
“Thanks.” Dolores smiled, “Thank you very much. I can actually just open it myself.”
“It’s okay.” Terry smiled, walked to the front door and sat in the driver’s seat. He glanced back at
Dolores, “You want to buy a car in what price range”
Dolores thought about it, “A car with decent safety performance in between 300 thousand yuan and
500 thousand yuan.”
Terry pursed his lips, “You’re quite rich.”
Dolores coughed lightly, “Not really.”
She had saved some money these years and she owned property abroad. She had sold the car used
by her when she was abroad.
Terry wanted to ask her if she had thought carefully about the matter but he did not ask. If she had
thought about it, she would definitely tell him so he was afraid that she would be annoyed if he kept
asking her.
Dolores could notice his action of wanting to say something.
When she did not see Maria, she decided to forget the whole thing for Sampson’s sake. But after
seeing Maria, she knew that even if she wanted to let bygones be bygones, Maria would be unwilling to
let her go.
The enmity and malice between them had been formed long ago.
It was certainly impossible for them to bury the hatchet.
“Terry, is it okay if I call you like this” Dolores asked.
“Sure.” This was his name though.
When someone knew that he was named Terry, they would be slightly surprised and would say, “You’re
a man, why are you called Terry”
No choice. His name was given by his mother and father.
“Have you learnt about the background of the woman who harmed your elder brother”
Terry shook his head.
“You have heard of the Herbert family in City B, right”
Terry nodded, “Yeah, they became wealthy by starting the jewellery business. Now, this family already
has a hundred years of history and is also considered one of the wealthiest families in City B.”
“If I tell you that the person who harmed your elder brother is from the Herbert family, do you still want
to have a reversal for your elder brother” Even if it was an ordinary person, it would be difficult to have
a reversal for a case many years ago, let alone it was someone with a strong background.
It would be even harder to have a reversal.
If Dolores decided to cooperate with him, she had to know how determined he was.
After all, it was not going to be an easy process.
Terry froze for a moment. It seemed like he did not expect that the woman had such a strong
background.
His hand gripped the steering wheel tightly, “I can’t give up just because she’s from a wealthy family. A
murderer must pay with his or her life.”
He said very determinedly.
His elder brother was indeed guilty but whether his brother should be dead or alive, it should be judged
by the law.
“Good, let’s cooperate.” This matter was expected.
Since he could be obsessed with this case for so many years, she could tell that he indeed had a
strong determination.
Terry smiled bitterly, “If I don’t care about my own family member, I indeed don’t deserve to be a human
being.”
While they were talking, the car stopped at the car store.
“The car stores of different brands are all around this area, almost all brands can be found here.”
Dolores opened the car door and got down, pointing to the first car store, “I’ll enter this store and take a
look.”
“Okay. A person like me who can’t afford to buy a car also can go to see cars at car shops,” Terry self-
ridiculed.
Dolores glanced at him, “Are you saying that the one you’re driving is not a car”
“Sounds true too, I drive every day.” Although it was a cab, it was still a car.
The glass door had a sensor so when someone approached, it would automatically open. A
salesperson went to serve Dolores, “What style of car do you want to look at There’s a new coupe
recently, do you want to take a look”
Dolores shook her head, “I want to see a 7-seater car.”
A car with more spaces would be comfortable. If she brought her two children out for a trip, she could
also put more things.
“I’ll suggest this model.” The salesperson led Dolores towards a business-type 7-seater SUV, “This
model has a big space and there’s a promotion now. It’s cheaper for more than ten thousand yuan than
its original price, so it’s a good deal.”
Terry secretly approached Dolores and whispered in her ear, “There have been several oil leaks cases
of the car of this brand. Its reputation isn’t good. I think you should consider another brand.”
Dolores turned her head and looked at him.
He nodded determinedly.
Dolores understood and said to the salesperson with a smile, “Sorry, I don’t really like the style of this
car.”
When hearing that Dolores was dissatisfied and did not want to buy it, the salesperson’s face
immediately turned cold, “If you can’t afford to buy it, just say directly. Don’t say that you don’t like the
style, isn’t it that you think it’s too expensive”
As the salesperson said, she sized up Dolores’s outfit. Jeans with a T-shirt, so old-fashioned.
“Hey, why do you talk like this” Terry was very furious.
How came this kind of people who acted like a snob were everywhere
Dolores pulled his hand and shook her head. There was no need for them to conflict with her.
They could just go to another car store.
Coming out of the car store, Terry was still angry, “Indeed, nowadays, mean people who look down on
people are found everywhere.”
Dolores looked at him, “You know that is a mean person, why are you feeling angry then”
Terry thought for a while, “Sounds true too.”
“That one, cars of that brand have a good reputation. Its safety performance is also up to standard, just
that the price is relatively higher.” Terry pointed to the car store of foreign brand opposite them.
Dolores pondered for a moment, “It doesn’t matter. As long as I can buy the model that I’m fond of, it’ll
be fine.”
Her car was not used by outsiders, but the most important people in her life. So, safety performance
was what she cared the most.
The two people walked into the store. This store was different from the last one. At the store just now,
someone would come and serve them. But at this store, the salespeople who originally got up to serve
Dolores and Terry after seeing them come in went back to sit on their positions again.
They felt that Dolores and Terry were the kinds of people who could not afford to buy a car.
Dolores raised her eyebrows.
Terry twitched his lips, “This store is even worse than the one just now.”
Dolores smiled, “Perhaps it’s because the cars of this store are very decent so the salespeople don’t
need to worry that the cars can’t be sold. And that’s why they have a cold attitude, because it doesn’t
really matter to them.”
Terry admitted, “The cars of this brand are really good but the prices are also quite high.”
Any one of them cost more than a million yuan.
The door of the office was opened. Abbott walked at the front and the manager was walking next to
him, “I’ll ask someone to drive your car over now.”
