SON-IN-LAW GETS AN UPGRADE - Season 5 Episode 77

There was a tinge of slyness in Alex’s gaze.

When Maggie bought the car for Alex, she also spent a huge sum on security guards to ensure that no one could touch the car before Alex did.

If Stuart was allowed to lay his finger on the car, then it meant that Maggie was not reliable and did not keep her promise.

However, Maggie was rather cold and unfriendly towards Stuart just now. Judging from the way she treated him, she didn’t seem to pay any heed to a character like him.

Alex looked at Maggie and coincidentally she was also staring at him. She gave him a signal to assure him that everything would go as planned.

Alex breathed a sigh of relief after receiving the assurance from Maggie.

Stuart strode over to the center stage and dismissed some of the visitors surrounding the car. He asked the security guards, “Hi, I’m Stuart Nixon, the chairman of Ivy Media. This exhibition hall belongs to one of my friends. Can I enter to have a closer look at the Bugatti?”

“Sorry, you can’t.” One of the security guards who had retired from the army shook his head and was very determined in declining the request. “Our boss has given the order that no one is allowed to go near the car nor touch it, except for the rightful car owner.”

These guards had no idea about Ivy Media Group or its reputation in Nebula City.

Even if Ivy Media Group had already made a name for itself, these security guards might not have any impression about it.

Stuart stared hard at the guards and cursed them secretly in his heart. He could no longer hide his embarrassment. Damn buggers!

If I don’t touch the Bugatti today, surely Alex would poke fun at me saying we’re of the same class. No, no, no, I must touch it regardless. Otherwise, it’s really shameful for me.

“Dude, I’m a car lover too. What if I give you ten thousand and you let me in?” Stuart suppressed his anger and continued to try his luck.

The security guard just looked at him without saying a word. P

“Twenty thousand.”

“Fifty thousand?”

“A hundred thousand?”

The guard was a principled veteran after all, and so he rejected firmly, “Sir, I repeat, you can’t get near the car if you’re not the owner. I can’t let you in even if you offer me one million or ten million.”

I can make

Stuart had never been rejected in this manner before, what more by a security guard. Through gritted teeth, he threatened, “My friend owns this exhibition center. If you continue to oppose me, you lose your job with just one phone call.”

The security guard looked at Stuart and smiled, “Sorry, I work for Securiforce Logistics and not this exhibition center. So, I don’t think your friend has the right to fire me.”

“Damn you!”

Stuart blew a fuse, “Don’t be too much, a**hole! Believe it or not, I can throw you out right now!”

The security guard answered indifferently, “Our company has signed a contract with the exhibition center when we rented this area. Thus, you have no right to ask me to leave. Moreover, my job is to protect the safety of this car. If you have other requests, please talk to my boss.”

Alex was delighted to see the drama and he walked over with a victorious smile on his face. “Oh, what happened, Stuart the b*stard? Did they forbid you to touch the car and ask you to leave? How pathetic!”
