Chapter 524
Sienna couldn't help but wonder what gave Carlisle the right to own a car worth at least one million dollars.
A honking sound interrupted Sienna's thoughts. Another semi-trailer had arrived with a transparent glass case showing a pink Porsche Cayenne inside.
"Wow, look at that Porsche!"
"What's going on? Did all the wealthy people decide to gather around here for a barbeque today?"
"Can someone tell me how much that car is worth?"
"That's the Cayenne Turbo 4.5T, the latest model in 2004. The most luxurious version cost about 250 thousand!"
"It definitely can't match the price of the Rolls-Royce."
"Duh! Rolls-Royce is crowned the king of luxury cars. These two brands aren't even in the same league!"
If it weren't for the Rolls-Royce Phantom's presence, the 250-thousand-dollar Cayenne would have undoubtedly been the center of envy that night. Sarah would have been deeply fond of it, too.
However, Sarah couldn't muster any interest at the moment. As she stared blankly at Carlisle signing the documents, she could only feel an inexplicable displeasure in her heart.
After signing the documents, Carlisle called Francis over and handed him the papers.
"Take these. We're changing our ride."
Francis took the documents, his hands shaking. When he saw the Rolls-Royce in the parking lot earlier, he had wondered when Carlisle would get a luxury car like that. He hadn't expected that the exact Rolls-Royce that caught his eye would belong to Carlisle.
In other words, he would be a Rolls-Royce driver from then on. He could imagine how people would look at him when he drove this car.
Francis followed Gary to collect the car. After the Rolls-Royce was unloaded, Francis sat inside to experience its luxurious interior, thrilled by its design.
"Damn. I must get in there, too!"
Sean hurried over and jumped into the front passenger seat.
Carlisle remained aloof, recalling Gareth's suggestion that he change his car, to which he humorously replied that he had no money.Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
He hadn't expected Gareth to gift him a car, let alone one that was more expensive than his
Ferrari. He wondered how he could ever repay Gareth.
Sitting in the passenger seat, Sean leaned out and laughed loudly at Sienna and Sarah.
"How does it feel to be slapped in the face?"
The metaphorical slap was indeed painful. Sarah blushed in embarrassment. She suppressed her anger and signed the papers to collect her Cayenne.
As soon as she finished signing, she received a call from Austin.
"Sarah, have you received the car I ordered for you?"
"Yes," Sarah replied, displeased.
"What's wrong? Don't you like it?"
Austin frowned, noticing her displeasure. He wondered if a 250-thousand-dollar car couldn't satisfy Sarah anymore.
Sarah replied innocently, "Yes, I do. It's just that I accidentally made a fool of myself..."
Sarah explained to Austin how she had initially mistaken that Rolls-Royce as his gift. After listening to her recount, Austin was somewhat speechless.
"What a coincidence," he remarked.
Sarah responded with an upset tone, "It sure was. Now everyone sees me as a joke!"
Austin took a deep breath and said, "I'm sorry, Sarah. I should have been more considerate and sent it to your school instead."
Sarah quickly responded, "No, Austin. I should thank you for the gift. It's fine. Let them have their laugh. It's not the first time I've been humiliated in front of Carlisle, after all."
"Sarah, baby, don't worry. He won't be laughing for long."
With that, Austin ended the call.
He had spent 250 thousand dollars on a luxury car to please Sarah, yet a million-dollar Rolls -Royce had overshadowed her moment. Sarah wasn't the only one feeling embarrassed. Austin felt the same.
Suddenly, a knock on the door interrupted Austin's thoughts.
"Come in," Austin responded indifferently.
Yuriel entered the room, his expression dark.
"Dad... Did someone upset you?" Austin asked cautiously.
Yuriel replied coldly, "Does your money grow on trees? Why did you buy a 250 thousand car for a university student?"
