The Invincible Mercenary King

Chapter 53

Jim looked at Haylan’s back as he left. Feeling jealous, he gritted his teeth and cursed for Haylan to lose money in his heart.

At this moment, Evelyn chased after Haylan and held his hand. She then said sincerely, “Haylan, I’m sorry. I was wrong. 1 shouldn’t have treated you like that. I’ll give you a chance now. Let’s have a dinner date tonight. How about that?”

Haylan was a wealthy guy. She did not want to give up an important client to a newcomer like Mandy just like that.

Therefore, she wanted to win back Haylan. After all, Haylan once had a crush on her when she was studying. If she went on a date with him, it would make him look good, and they would both have a way out. Who knew, maybe she could even make Haylan fall in love with her again.

Hence, her attitude suddenly changed 180 degrees. She became enthusiastic and fawned over him.

Haylan flung Evelyn’s hand away, “Miss Schuber, I don’t recall us being this close, are we? Please don’t touch me. Be careful. Jim might see us and misunderstand.”

“You’ve misunderstood. Jim and I are just ordinary friends. There’s nothing else between us.”

Despite being pushed away, Evelyn smiled brightly at Haylan like a bootlicker. “Haylan, we were classmates. It’s been so long since we last met. Let’s have a meal together. I know a nice restaurant. I’ll treat you to a meal tonight.”

Haylan was too rich. She didn’t want to let go of such a good opportunity.

Jim stood behind them, and his face fell when he saw what happened.

“Really?” Haylan looked at Evelyn with interest and almost laughed out loud.

This woman was really a snob!

She tried to chase him away and refused to do business with him when she saw him dressed shabbily.

Now that she knew he was wealthy, she immediately came over to curry favor with him. Evelyn was absolutely a bootlicker.

Seeing this, Haylan could not help but sigh. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

It was indeed true that money ruled the world nowadays. Money could make the devil push a millstone.

Seeing Haylan’s reaction. Evelyn was overjoyed. Thinking that Haylan still had feelings for her, she thought to herself, “I knew I’m still charming. Haylan, let’s see how you escape from my grasp this time.”

She was ecstatic inside but remained expressionless on the surface. Then, she continued to say, “Let’s exchange contact. numbers.”

Haylan didn’t refuse and immediately exchanged his number with her.

He wanted to see what tricks Evelyn could play

When the bank manager saw this scene, his eyes lit up. He approached Evelyn and asked, “Evelyn, do you know Mr. Jaber?”

Evelyn immediately held Haylan’s arm affectionately and smiled. “Hello, manager. I’m Haylan’s high school classmate.”

That’s amazing. From now on, you and Mandy will be in charge of receiving Mr. Jaber,” the bank manager said happily.

Haylan had spent millions of dollars as soon as he arrived. He was a big client, so the manager wanted to keep him.

“Thank you, manager. I’ll definitely serve Haylan well. Evelyn was overjoyed and immediately made a promise. She even looked at Mandy smugly, trying to show off.

It was as though she was saying. “You can’t snatch my client away.”

Mandy’s face twitched when she saw this..

Evelyn was obviously taking her customers!

However, she was not angry or upset. Maintaining her smile, she said sincerely, “Evelyn, please guide me in the future.”

She was a newcomer and did not know much. It would be best if she could learn from a senior employee like Evelyn.

After all, she had only managed to pick up Haylan because Evelyn refused to serve him.

“Alright, take your time to chat. I’ll make a move first.”

Haylan smiled at the two of them and turned to leave.

Take care, Mr. Jaber Mandy hurriedly sent him out.

Not to be outdone, Evelyn walked Haylan to the door. Before Haylan left, she even brushed her fingers across Haylan’s palm and smiled seducingly. “Haylan, don’t forget our date. See you tonight.”

Haylan waved his hand, indicating that he understood. Then, he left without looking back.

Evelyn and Mandy watched Haylan’s disappearing figure for a long time before returning to the bank.

By this time, the bank manager had already left.

Mandy’s eyes were cold as she glared at Mandy. She then uttered, “Mandy, remember this. Haylan is my client. Be more observant in the future. With me around, you don’t get to serve him, got it?”

“Yes, I got it.” Mandy nodded.

Evelyn sneered and returned to her post with an arrogant expression and proud steps as though she had just won a victory.

As she was about to continue serving Jim, she realized he had already left.

“Is Jim angry?” Evelyn’s expression changed slightly.

However, she soon smiled again.

So what if Jim was angry?

Now that she had a client like Haylan, she no longer needed Jim’s help.

Outside the bank, Haylan was waiting for a taxi with a cash box.

He had recovered a little money from Declan, but to cover his tracks, he had spent more than 1.6 million dollars into stocks and wealth management funds. He wanted to give the rest to his parents, so he did not even have a car.

“After I collect all the money from Declan, I have to buy a house for my parents as soon as possible. Haylan Jaber thought to himself as he waited for a taxi.

Although the house was cozy, it was too old. It was also far from the city center, and the surrounding environment was not good either. Not to mention there were many uncleared smelly garbage dumps around the house.

He had to provide his parents with a better living environment with clean air.

Just as Haylan was waiting for the car, Jim came to his side with a bag. He smiled and said, “Haylan, long time no see.”

After learning that Haylan was rich, his attitude towards Haylan also changed 180 degrees.

“Didn’t we just meet? Haylan glanced at him.

Jim’s face fell, but he hurriedly smiled and said, “It’s just a misunderstanding. Haylan, what business are you doing now?”

As Jim spoke, he glanced at the money box in Haylan’s hand.

There were 400 thousand dollars in it!

This amount of money was more than the balance in his bank account.

“Aren’t you asking the obvious? I’m just a security guard who guards people’s doors,” Haylan answered calmly.

Jim seemed awkward. He felt like he had been insulted by Haylan.

Knowing that Haylan was wealthy, he wanted to establish a good relationship with him. He thought he could get Haylan to invest in his family’s company in the future and help them get through difficult

times.

Now that Havlan mocked him, he did not know how to react.

Jim looked at Haylan with a puzzled look and thought, “I haven’t seen this guy for eight years, and he’s only working as at security guard now. Where did he get so much money?”

Suddenly, he thought of a possibility!

Lottery tickets!

“That’s right. Haylan doesn’t even have a university degree, let alone any ability. That’s why he became a security guard. With his ability, it’s impossible he can earn so much money. This kid must have won the lottery!”

The more Jim thought about it, the more he felt he had guessed correctly.

After understanding this, he looked at Haylan coldly and said, “You’re just a lucky nouveau riche, so why pretend to be something you’re not? It’s not your money, and soon you’ll lose everything. Trash like you trying to learn about finance and stock trading is simply ridiculous!”

As he spoke, he picked up his money bag, opened the zipper, and showed off in front of Haylan. “Do you see that? This is the money I earned with my own ability! This is what you call real money!”

As he was showing off his money, it immediately attracted the attention of some passersby.

Some fierce–looking men stopped in their tracks and looked over with greedy eyes.

Haylan looked at Jim’s sudden change in attitude and felt somewhat confused. He remained expressionless and said calmly, “It’s best to keep your wealth low–key. Be careful not to get too excited and end up in sorrow.”
