Chapter 253
The manager who was slapped held his cheek and looked at Edward with a stunned expression. He was just about to say something when he was completely shocked by what Edward did next.
Everyone else who was present was stunned too.
Edward quickly walked toward Liam with a respectful demeanor. He looked nervous as he said to Liam, who was holding Jovie in his arms, "Mr. Cole, sorry to have frightened you. I apologize for coming late! I am Edward Lowe. As per your request, the ownership of the mall has now been transferred to your name!"
This sentence made everyone gasp involuntarily.
And that left the manager, Barbie's team, and her enthusiastic and mindless fans completely dumbfounded.
What? Did this man buy the mall? Was the mall truly his at that moment?
The manager was stupefied, and he dropped to the ground with his face as white as a sheet. He knelt on the ground and crawled toward Liam while constantly apologizing.
His speech was incoherent as he stuttered, "M-Mr. Cole, I-I was wrong. I-I'm sorry. I-I-I messed up. I was wrong! I shouldn't have looked down on you and offended you and your daughter with what I said. I'm sorry, I beg you, please forgive me! Please spare my life!"
The manager kept begging on his knees, but Liam did not even glance at him. He looked toward Barbie and the rest instead. His gaze was cold, and he was exuding endless frostiness.
"You all, apologize to my daughter now!"
The cold and hollow voice sounded like it came from the depths of hell. Everyone could not help but panic upon hearing it.
What was even more unexpected to Barbie was that this poor loser that she looked down upon and ridiculed instantly transformed into the millionaire CEO of this huge mall!
This mall was worth 150 million dollars!
He was able to acquire it just like that. This man must be more than he led on. Besides, this was 150 million dollars. Even though Barbie was all the rage now, and she was super famous, she would not be worth that much even if she sold herself.
Barbie panicked. This man was able to spend 150 million dollars just like that. He must be someone important. He was not someone she could afford to offend.
However, Barbie also thought she might still stand a chance. She was at the height of her fame at that moment. Also, the company that she was under, Citron Entertainment, could not be trifled with by just about anyone.
Besides, she had quite a few benefactors behind her. Any of them could easily be worth more than 150 million dollars.
On top of that, she had a few million followers on Twitter. If she were to cry online, pretend to be pitiful, and blame everything on the man, then her fans would cyberbully him. After all, this would not be the first time she was doing this.
By then, all she needed to do was wait for the man to apologize to her.
Barbie quickly put on a brave face and took off her shades. She raised her brow, showing her pretty face. Then, with a delicate but angry voice, she said, "You want me to apologize? Dream on! Who do you think you are? Do you think I'll be afraid of you just because you have some money?
"Listen to me. I'm Barbie, the top star in Citron Entertainment. I have millions of followers on Twitter. Do you think you're the only one with money? The people backing me are all worth more than 150 million dollars! Do you think that the likes of you could get me to lower my head and apologize?" Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
Barbie was full of confidence. Once she was done talking, she even got her manager to call the agency and tell them what was happening.
