At this moment, Maria Chambler suddenly remembered that she had always wanted to ask Eugene Porter a question.
"Eugene Porter, how much money do you have?"
Eugene Porter turned to look at Maria Chambler and opened his mouth to say, "Well, let's put it this way, I have enough to support you for the rest of your life."
Maria Chambler felt that Eugene Porter needed to give her a straightforward answer, so she didn't press further. But he probably didn't have much money left if he could only support her for the rest of her life.
Maria Chambler thought she didn't need much money to support herself for the rest of her life.
Eugene Porter didn't have much money left after buying this car. Maria Chambler silently pondered.
At the same time, she felt a bit touched because recently Eugene Porter had shown an astonishing financial ability, and he had used all that money on her.
She didn't know if Eugene Porter's claim of supporting her for the rest of her life would make her feel like a queen without worrying about food, clothing, and sadness for the rest of her life.
Upon hearing Maria Chambler ask this question, Eugene Porter coughed softly and opened his mouth to say, "Is it that you want to confiscate my money? If you want to confiscate it, I can give it all to you."
Maria Chambler couldn't help but laugh. She didn't expect Eugene Porter to think like that.
"That's your money; I don't need it. Besides, you probably don't have much money left, and my mother isn't kind to you. It would be best to keep it for yourself," Maria Chambler said.
Eugene Porter didn't say anything more and drove the Land Rover back home.
As they entered the house, Olivia Sherwood and Dwight Chambler gave them a dark and ominous look from the doorway.
In the living room, Mrs. Holland, the three of them sat. They immediately stood up when they saw Eugene Porter and Maria Chambler return.
"Eugene Porter is back. We came to see the car you bought. Didn't you say you were going to buy a car today? So, did you drive the car back?" Mrs. Holland asked with a smile.
Olivia Sherwood immediately said, "Mrs. Holland, don't listen to Eugene Porter's nonsense. You don't know what kind of person he is. He was joking yesterday."
"That's right; he was just joking. How could he buy a car?" Dwight Chambler added.
"So, it turns out it was just a joke. I even said today that we would see how Eugene Porter's car is different from Chris's car. What a disappointment," Mrs. Holland's husband expressed his disappointment.
"Eugene Porter, you didn't buy a car, did you? If you didn't buy one, don't talk nonsense and make us come here for nothing," Chris said sarcastically to Eugene Porter.
Olivia Sherwood and Dwight Chambler were so embarrassed that they could shrink into the ground. They had planned to wait until the whole Holland family returned before giving Eugene Porter a lesson.
Maria Chambler looked at the whole Holland family with disdain and suddenly felt indifferent. After all, Eugene Porter did drive the car back home.
"I did drive the car back. It's parked downstairs," Eugene Porter said.
Everyone was stunned. Olivia Sherwood and Dwight Chambler couldn't believe it. Olivia Sherwood glared at Eugene Porter and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? When did you drive the car? Do you think we're fools?"
"Mom, he did drive the car back home. If you don't believe it, you can go downstairs and see," Eugene Porter said.
"That's right, Mom, the car is parked downstairs," Maria Chambler said.
"Ah, so it was a real purchase. Then let's go downstairs and see what kind of car Eugene Porter bought," Mrs. Holland said with a smile.
Then the whole Holland family went out the door and downstairs.
Olivia Sherwood glared at Eugene Porter, opened her mouth, and said, "You despicable person. I don't care what junk car you tricked us into. When you come back, I'll deal with you."
After saying that, she walked out with Dwight Chambler.
Eugene Porter shrugged and went downstairs with Maria Chambler.
Downstairs, the whole Holland family glanced around and then pointed to the old, dilapidated Passat, saying, "Eugene Porter, is this the car you bought?"
"So, it turns out it's a second-hand purchase. I thought it was a new car. It's such a waste of time to come here for this trip," Chris said scornfully.
"That's right, Eugene Porter. I said you bought a new car. Why did you buy this old, second-hand car?" Mrs. Holland said disdainfully.
Olivia Sherwood and Dwight Chambler's faces turned black. Olivia Sherwood shouted at Eugene Porter, "Why did you bring this pile of junk home? I don't even need this old car. You spent money on it, making me lose face!"
Unfazed, Eugene Porter pointed to the Land Rover on the other side and said, "I bought that car, not this one."
Everyone followed Eugene Porter's finger and saw the brand-new Land Rover, shocking them all.
"Is this... the car Eugene Porter bought?" Mrs. Holland couldn't believe her eyes.
They walked over to the Land Rover, carefully observing the car, their eyes filled with astonishment and admiration.
"Eugene Porter, is this the car you bought?" Olivia Sherwood asked, a bit skeptical, seeking confirmation from Eugene Porter.
Eugene Porter nodded and said, "Yes, I bought it today. The receipt is still in the car."
The whole Holland family couldn't help but feel jealous upon hearing Eugene Porter's words. Clearly, this car was much better than theirs, and they couldn't help but feel a sense of imbalance.
But upon careful consideration, Eugene Porter didn't have a job and held a low position at home. How could he afford to buy a new car? So the Holland family felt that Maria Chambler must have borrowed money to buy this car for Eugene Porter, causing them to lose face.
Mrs. Holland also thought Maria Chambler had recently been promoted but probably needed more money. Perhaps the car only looked good on the outside, and compared to Chris's car, it was still far inferior.
At this moment, Chris's face showed a hint of fear as he looked at the Land Rover, recognizing the brand of the car. Moreover, he had heard that even the cheapest Land Rover Range Rover cost over three billion.
Since he had never seen such an expensive car, he was busy observing the vehicle and needed more time to talk to his parents.
Mrs. Holland wanted to regain her composure and asked Eugene Porter, "Eugene Porter, you must have spent quite a sum of money on this car, right?"
Eugene Porter smiled and replied, "Not that much."
Mrs. Holland felt even more confident that Eugene Porter's car was not worth much, at most a little over three hundred million.
"Looking at this car, it seems very nice, but it's still a bit lacking compared to the car at my house. Our car is worth over six hundred million. Your car is probably just over three hundred million, not counting as a good car. Later, I'll drive my car here to show you what a car worth over six hundred million is like," Mrs. Holland said smugly.
Eugene Porter laughed but didn't say anything.
At this time, Chris overheard Mrs. Holland's words and immediately stared at her, saying, "Mom, are you crazy? How can you compare my beat-up car with this?"
Mrs. Holland was taken aback and said, "Your car is worth over six hundred million; how could it be compared to this car worth just over three hundred million?"
"Who told you that? This is a Land Rover Range Rover, and it's worth at least three billion!"
Mrs. Holland and her husband opened their mouths wide, shocked by the news.
"What did you say? This car is worth over three billion?" Mrs. Holland's husband exclaimed.
Chris nodded.
Olivia Sherwood and Dwight Chambler were astonished and turned to look at Eugene Porter.
"How could that be? Is a car worth over three billion? Our family can't even sell a house for that much." Mrs. Holland still couldn't believe it.
At this moment, Dwight Chambler opened the car door and saw the receipt inside. He took it out and saw it was written clearly: three billion six hundred sixty million. His heart started pounding a little faster.
"It's true; the receipt clearly states it." Dwight Chambler spoke up.
Mrs. Holland and her husband quickly approached to see for themselves, and upon seeing it, they were terrified and couldn't utter a word.
They had initially thought Eugene Porter couldn't afford to buy a car, and now he had driven back a vehicle worth over three billion, complete with a receipt. They found it hard to believe.
Mrs. Holland, who was initially arrogant, immediately became flustered. A car worth over three billion, even if she sold her house, she couldn't afford to buy it.
"Olivia, you did get a good son-in-law. I never expected him to buy such an expensive car, making people admire him." Mrs. Holland's attitude changed, and she truly admired Olivia Sherwood.
Olivia Sherwood was also pleased, never expecting Eugene Porter to drive back a car worth more than three billion.
However, she felt that Eugene Porter did not buy this car himself. If he did, it must have been purchased by her daughter, Maria Chambler. Indeed Maria Chambler had made significant contributions to the company, and Louis Chambler rewarded her with a large sum of money.
That must be it, Olivia thought.
"Mrs. Holland, don't laugh; Eugene Porter couldn't afford such an expensive car. Because of my daughter's excellent performance at the company, she received a bonus and could buy it now." Olivia Sherwood spoke up.
"Oh, I see. Maria is truly impressive." Mrs. Holland expressed her admiration.
"Mom, about this car..." Maria Chambler wanted to explain to Olivia Sherwood that Eugene Porter bought the car, and she didn't receive a bonus.
"Alright, daughter, let's look at this car. If you have anything to discuss, do it at home." Olivia Sherwood said dismissively.
Olivia Sherwood turned to inspect the car, seemingly ignoring Maria Chambler.
"Olivia, you all go ahead. We'll go first," Mrs. Holland said to Olivia Sherwood.
"Alright then, you all go ahead. If you have time, experience the new car at my house." Olivia Sherwood said with satisfaction.
The entire Holland family went upstairs, wholly defeated by this comparison of cars.
Olivia Sherwood waited for the Holland family to leave, then turned to look at Eugene Porter, opening her mouth to say, "This time, you only managed to keep face in front of the Holland family because of my daughter's achievements. But don't get too cocky. Your ability to buy this car has nothing to do with you."
Eugene Porter was speechless. Olivia Sherwood didn't believe he could accomplish anything.
"Alright, hand over the car keys." Olivia Sherwood opened her mouth.
Eugene Porter handed the car keys to Olivia Sherwood. After taking them, she told Dwight Chambler, "Look at the car keys. We can't let Eugene Porter touch such an expensive car in the future."
Dwight Chambler nodded and said, "You're right; he should not drive a car worth over three billion. Let me try it out."
Maria Chambler immediately defended Eugene Porter, the weaker party, "Mom, why can't Eugene Porter drive this car? He bought it..."
"Alright, daughter, this car is worth over three billion. If it gets scratched a little, I would be heartbroken. How could I let this useless person touch such an expensive car?" Olivia Sherwood spoke.
Her mother's words genuinely angered Maria Chambler. Olivia Sherwood was the most unreasonable person in the world.
Eugene Porter held Maria Chambler's shoulder, smiling at her, and said, "It's okay, as long as they are happy."
"But you bought this car." Maria Chambler angrily said.
"Whether you or I bought it, it's the same. Besides, this car is for you to use for work. Whether I drive it or not doesn't matter." Eugene Porter smiled and said.
Maria Chambler sighed, feeling indebted to Eugene Porter very much so.
Dwight Chambler and Olivia Sherwood got into the car, their faces filled with joy.
"Daughter, why aren't you getting in? Sitting in a car worth over three billion is unlike an ordinary experience. It's so comfortable." Olivia Sherwood said.
Maria Chambler glanced at her, opened her mouth, and said, "I won't sit. You two go."
After saying that, she held Eugene Porter's hand and turned to go upstairs.
This was the first time Maria Chambler took the initiative to hold his hand. Eugene Porter would willingly buy a hundred cars if he exchanged one car for an opportunity.
After all, he had a lot of money, but Maria Chambler needed to take the initiative to hold his hand more often.
"Eugene Porter, how about I treat you to a meal?" Maria Chambler suddenly opened her mouth.
Eugene Porter was slightly surprised, then smiled and said, "Alright, Goddess, treat me to a meal. I'm not going to be happy in time."
Maria Chambler glared at Eugene Porter and said, "I'm inferior. I'll tell you in advance that I can't afford an expensive meal. I can only treat you to a simple one."
"Haha, it doesn't matter where we eat. As long as I have you, it's the best meal in the world." Eugene Porter laughed and said.
Maria Chambler blushed but felt like Eugene Porter was teasing her.
"Hmph, you're getting better and better. I wonder whose influence you're learning from." Maria Chambler muttered to herself, then ran upstairs.
