“Are you sure it’s Mr. Finn Lewis with the account number…” Once the middle-aged man finishes, the customer service representative repeats it again. The middle-aged man is a bit speechless. He has never encountered such a situation before. He quickly nods and says, “I’m sure.”

“Okay, sir. The check in your hand is valid. Finn Lewis is one of our most valued customers. There is no overdraft limit on his account. Even if Mr. Finn Lewis’s account has no balance, your check can be cashed at any time. Is there anything else I can assist you with?” The customer service representative asked respectfully.

Though the customer service representative’s voice is not loud, everyone present was taken aback when they heard this. No overdraft limit? Anybody with VIP status in a bank would understand what that means. What kind of person has that level of status in a bank? It wouldn’t be possible without having billions in cashflow!

Next Monday will be a wedding, so I have to stock up on updates for the next two days! Because there is no internet where the wedding is taking place, Windbreak has to ensure he updates in advance. Please vote for the monthly ticket-

“Uh, no.” The middle-aged man was also shocked and after hesitating, he quickly responded and hung up the phone.

“My apologies, Mr. Lewis.” Although the call didn’t reveal much, it indirectly illustrated how wealthy Finn Lewis is.

“It’s okay, I should be the one apologizing.” Finn Lewis said with a smile. He then turned to the next person. Besides the two Lannies, there were six other cars. Finn Lewis quickly signed six checks. After finishing signing, he clasped his fists in the traditional gesture of respect, and spoke in an apologetic tone, “My apologies for the outburst earlier. You’re free to have your cars towed out of here. It was my fault.”

The others were astonished. Finn Lewis had just compensated them with an amount exceeding the price of their new cars. Although those who could afford these cars aren’t exactly needy, the fact that Finn Lewis had compensated them with not only the price of their new car but extra cash and still allowed them to tow their cars away just… didn’t that mean they could still repair their cars? The repair costs couldn’t possibly match the sums they had received.

The maximum would be around a few hundred thousand, not nearly as much as what they were given. The two young men had also heard the call made by the middle-aged man. However, the leading young man scoffed at this, saying, “Just because you’re rich doesn’t mean you’re powerful. My car is worth a hundred million each, try compensating for that!”

Although the others had all received their money, none of them had left. They watched this scene and unanimously felt that Finn Lewis seemed to be purposely picking a fight with these two men.

“Haha” Finn Lewis laughed lightly, then took out his checkbook, casually wrote two checks, and handed them over, “Here you go, a hundred million each for your cars. You can have fun.”

His casual demeanor was as if he were saying to them “Good kids, behave. This is a bit of money, let your uncle buy you some candy. Go and play.” A hundred million is a huge amount. Does a Lannie cost a hundred million? Of course not.

Even if you add up the costs of the two cars, it wouldn’t even reach ten million.

Yet, these two young men had announced a price of a hundred million and Finn

Lewis, without a word of protest, simply smiled and handed them their

respective checks.

Initially, the two young men, whose faces were filled with gloating, expecting to see Finn Lewis embarrassed, froze at the sight of the checks they received and the long line of zeros on them. This…This…was not what they had in mind. In their view, Finn Lewis would definitely be mad and argue with them, which they could then use as an opportunity to ridicule him for showing off.

He was very generous just now, wasn’t he? A car worth a hundred and twenty thousand and he gave a hundred and fifty thousand? Isn’t he generous? Let’s see him continue his act of generosity. This was their thought process. Finn Lewis’s demeanor just now had really irked them. This was just showing off in its rawest form. And the fact that he was showing off in front of them, people who normally engaged in showing off was not something they would appreciate.

But now, Finn Lewis, without even sparing a glance at them, casually wrote two checks and passed them over as though the sum they had asked for was of no significance to him. They had stood poised, confident that they were about to make a powerful rhetorical blow. Instead, it felt as if their punch had hit a pillow, leaving them on the verge of petulant despair. To him, their so-called exorbitant price, was not worth a fart.

The atmosphere abruptly stilled, the duo uncertain of whether they should accept Finn Lewis’s checks. “What now, not satisfied? How about I write two new ones for you?”

With that said, Finn Lewis collected the two checks and swiftly tore them up, then took out his checkbook again, “swish, swish”, and wrote another check But this time, the sum was now three hundred million.

“This is three hundred million. One car, one hundred and fifty million each. Is that enough? From now on, if you don’t have money, don’t try to impress girls, okay? Don’t disgrace us rich folks. If you want to woo girls as a prodigal, then you should have enough money. A Lannie to impress a girl? Your vision is too small. What can you do with that money? Take these three hundred million and remember to buy a better car next time. A Lannie is type of a car that ordinary people drive. If you want to impress a girl, drive a car like mine, it’s one of a kind in the world and no amount of money can buy it.” Finn Lewis handed over the checks with a light chuckles after saying these words.

The penny finally dropped for the surrounding people. They had of course recognized Kay Lee, but Kay had been having tea with her friends, and everyone maintained a respectful distance. Those interested in stargazing had approached her for her autograph in a very polite manner and those who hadn’t just left her alone. It would be terribly embarrassing to behave otherwise in such an elite setting.

The two young men had gone up to Kay Lee and tried to flirt with her, a fact that everyone else had noticed. Finn Lewis’s comment helped them understand what was happening. “Hey, we were just saying, to wreck so many cars over a parking spot, that’s way too extravagant. It’s like a wastrel amongst wastrels spending money recklessly.”

But now that they know he was doing this for a girl, it all makes sense. People have done even crazier things for love, after all. But when Finn Lewis mentioned his car, everyone’s gaze was involuntarily drawn towards his vehicle. The subdued blue paintwork was with an understated sci-fi look, subtly appealing compared to the brash Lannies. But the performance… it was leaps and bounds ahead of a Lannie.

The most important thing here is that Finn Lewis’s three hundred million checks were there to see, making everybody see the two young men in a new light. Despicable came to mind. As the saying goes, it’s not about not knowing the value of something but comparing theirs to yours. Comparisons always leave one feeling inadequate, and these two were certainly being shown up by

Finn Lewis. If Finn Lewis weren’t there, they would’ve looked quite impressive trying to impress a girl by showing off their car, a move that some might consider lavish, but a mere drop in the ocean compared to Finn Lewis’s display of wealth..
