In front of Carlisle, Edward gave the notice.

Although Carlisle did not say that he wanted to deal with Bessie, if Edward wanted to build a good relationship with Carlisle in the future, he had to learn to take the initiative. Bessie had offended Carlisle, so Edward would not allow any threat to affect his own future.

“Manager? I’ve already apologized! Didn’t that gentleman say nothing! Why fire me?”

Bessie was stunned. She’d thought she’d got away with it, but Edward was still going to deal with her.

“I don’t want to listen to your nonsense anymore. Keep your eyes open in the future! Pack your things. I don’t want to see you at the bank after work today!”

Bessie’s face instantly turned pale. She had always been proud to be able to work at Citibank because working at a world-class bank was a symbol of status. Everyone around her was envious. She had worked hard for this job and finally got it.

But today, thanks to her foul mouth, all of this was gone!

Bessie was in deep regret. She placed all her hopes on Carlisle and cried, “Sir, I beg you. I know I was wrong. Please let me off. As long as you’re willing to let me off, I’ll do anything.”

Carlisle did not pity her. This was because even if he begged outside just now, this woman would not let him in.

Moreover, he knew that Edward had helped him deal with Bessie. It was obvious that he was doing it for him to see as a sign of goodwill.

It made Carlisle sigh. This was the power of money, after all.

Seeing that Carlisle refused to acknowledge Bessie, Edward called the security guard in and brought Bessie out.

Half an hour later, Carlisle was respectfully sent off with the Citibank black credit card Edward had given him!

Looking at the black card in his hand that indicates the highest VIP, Carlisle’s suppressed emotions were finally swept away. From now on, he was also a rich man! A rich man with 1.6 billion in assets!

Jerome only had tens of millions worth of assets. Now, he was not even qualified to scrub his shoes!

As for Wendy, he really had to thank Wendy. If he hadn’t seen her true colors in advance, he would have foolishly spent money on this gold digger in the future!

Now that he had 1.6 billion alone, he could spend it however he wanted!

Carlisle hailed a cab back to school.

After running around for the entire afternoon, Carlisle was already starving. As soon as he returned to school, he went straight to the convenience store.

After choosing some food, Carlisle was queuing up to settle the bill when a boy suddenly ran to the front of the queue and pestered a girl.

“Shirley, just be my girlfriend! I really like you!” Jonathan Bard confessed.

“Please stop bothering me. I have a boyfriend!” Shirley Fanny seemed annoyed in the face of the man’s pestering.

“Who is it? I don’t believe it! Other than me, who else is worthy of you?” Jonathan was still unwilling to give up.

Shirley was speechless. Where did this confidence come from? She was the second most popular girl in the Brunswick University Faculty of Arts. She had a long line of suitors from the school’s main entrance to the back door. And there was no lack of wealthy second-generation heirs among them!

Jonathan was just an extremely ordinary one. At the same time, he was also the one she hated the most. He was like a dog skin plaster1 that she could not shake off no matter what. Most importantly, he did not care about the occasion and went ahead to pester her.

Shirley had really had enough. After a moment’s thought, she said, “My boyfriend’s shopping too. He’s in the back getting ready to settle the bill.”

With that, Shirley turned around and started looking around. It wasn’t that she really had a boyfriend. She wanted to find a shield.

In the end, after looking around, they were all unattractive and did not even have the right to pretend to be her boyfriend!

It was not until she saw Carlisle that Shirley’s eyes lit up. Carlisle was quite handsome. Although he was not the hottest, he was definitely good-looking.

Especially among the bunch of plain-looking ones, Carlisle was especially outstanding!

Hence, Shirley walked towards Carlisle. “Darling! Why are you standing behind?”

Shirley called out affectionately and took Carlisle’s arm. Then, in an extremely low voice, she said, “I’m sorry, do me a favor!”

Carlisle was dumbfounded. He was still watching the show, but now, he had become the protagonist!

Jonathan was immediately enraged when he saw the girl he was pursuing was holding another boy’s arm.

It would have been fine if he was a rich second-generation heir on the same level as him. At most, they would compete fairly. However, in his opinion, Carlisle was just a country bumpkin. His entire body was covered in cheap stuff. How did he look like a rich person?

He was not stupid. He guessed that Carlisle had been captured as a shield.

Hence, Jonathan walked forward arrogantly. “Kid, I know you’re not Shirley’s boyfriend. If you don’t want to get into trouble, get lost quickly. Otherwise, I’ll make you suffer!”

Hearing this, Shirley grabbed Carlisle tightly, afraid that Carlisle would escape out of fear.

Carlisle was a little disgusted by this. He was already unhappy that he had been implicated for no reason. Now, they were not planning to let him go? Why?

Shirley also realized that her actions were a little inappropriate, but she really couldn’t stand Jonathan’s harassment anymore. She could only look at Carlisle apologetically.

“Don’t you understand human speech? Didn’t I tell you to get lost? This isn’t something a poor guy like you can get involved in!” Jonathan threatened.

“Poor, poor, I’m poor, your ass! You rich second-generation heirs are all f*cking arrogant. Who do you think you are?”

Carlisle originally wanted to ignore the matter, but when he saw Jonathan’s face, Carlisle thought of Jerome and Wendy, who had humiliated him. Most importantly, he already had 1.6 billion dollars in assets. How could he be insulted by a random second-generation heir?

He could not care less and retorted.

Immediately after, Carlisle reached out and pulled Shirley into his arms.

He was definitely taking this matter into his own hands today!
