"Just call me Fazal!"
Upon hearing Fazal's words, Larry was completely dumbfounded, hardly able to believe his ears.
He knew well that Fazal was an extremely proud person, looking down on almost everyone. Even the bigwigs of Jackville City were beneath his notice.
And now, he was showing such respect in front of Esme, which was simply unbelievable.
But that was not all!
"Are… are all these expensive items gifts for Aunt Simpson?"
Larry, looking at the clothes, leather shoes, jewelry, paintings, sea cucumbers, and caterpillar fungus gifts in the hands of Fazal and others, was utterly astounded.
All these gifts together must be worth tens of millions, right?
Tens of millions in gifts!
For Larry, this was unimaginable.
"But… boss, you must be mistaken! Aunt Simpson's son-in-law, Tacito, is just a good-for-nothing loafer! Living off his wife, doing nothing all day! What makes him worthy of your visit?"
Larry, fearing that Fazal had been deceived, hurriedly reminded him anxiously.
"And the gifts you brought are too valuable! They're worth tens of millions. That Tacito doesn't deserve them!"
What!
Hearing Larry's words, Aunt Melanie and Eleanor behind him were also completely stunned.
Tens of millions in gifts?
In their entire lives, they had never seen so much money, let alone such expensive gifts!
Immediately, Aunt Melanie said,
"Mr. Fazal, you might want to get your facts straight! That Tacito is indeed a good-for-nothing! Don’t be fooled by him!"
"Yes! He can't even produce a penny on a normal day, how could he possibly be a VIP at Century Mall? Mr. Fazal, you must be mistaken!"
At this moment, Aunt Melanie and Eleanor found it extremely hard to accept.
After all, they had just been belittling Tacito as utterly worthless!
And now, to have the owner and executives of Century Mall personally visiting with such grand gifts, this huge disparity was too much for them to accept.
Not just Aunt Melanie's family!
Even Esme was in disbelief.
She too suspected that her son-in-law was involved in some kind of scam.
Otherwise, how could Tacito have the influence to bring a figure like Fazal to visit!
However!
Slap!
A loud slap resounded instantly.
Everyone was shocked to see Fazal slap Larry to the ground, his face dark and dripping with a mix of authority and evil Qi.
"How dare you call Mr. Temple worthless!"
"Bring someone here!"
Upon hearing Fazal's words, a high-ranking executive from the group quickly stepped forward.
"From today on, this man is relieved of his managerial position in the mall! Never to be employed again!"
What!
As Fazal's words fell, Larry and Aunt Melanie, among others, turned ashen.
How could this be?
Just for calling Tacito "worthless", Fazal issued such thunderous anger. This… was simply unimaginable.
"No! Mr. Fazal, I... I was wrong! I spoke out of turn, please don't fire me, I can't lose this job!" Larry was terrified to the core.
Kneeling on the ground, begging Fazal for mercy like a dog.
All his glory was given by Century Mall.
And if he lost this job, he would never have a chance to turn things around.
Not just him!
Aunt Melanie and Eleanor behind him were also pale with fear, continuously begging.
But Fazal didn’t even glance at these three people. He respectfully said to Esme,
"Ms. Simpson, please accept these gifts quickly! Otherwise, if Mr. Temple blames us, we can't afford it!"
Fazal's gaze towards Esme even carried a hint of pleading.
Dumbfounded!
At this moment, Esme was completely in disarray.
She couldn't understand what her worthless son-in-law had done to make a bigwig of Jackville City so humble.
