Chapter 285 Pawn Shop
1.4 million dollars wasn’t exactly something he didn’t have….
Just then, Elsie returned with a card. “Paul, I sold the watch and even found a contact to sell it for a bit more!”
Paul didn’t listen to her ramble. He just asked how much she got for it.
Elsie grinned, “Over 110 thousand dollars!”
Paul frowned deeply. “Is that all?”
“My watch is one of only ten in the world. I bought it for millions, and it should have appreciated lover the years.”
Elsie pouted. “Paul, pawnshops are different from auctions. Pawning is a speed sale. I managed to get this amount because the shop owner was being generous. If you want more, try selling it yourself!”
Paul was speechless. He was used to buying things at auctions, but now he had to resort to pawning?
“Fine, 110 thousand dollars it is.”
Elsic eagerly crouched by his feet. “Paul, transfer the 70 thousand dollars directly to that man’s account. Smack his face hard!”
She had borrowed money from him before, and he harassed her for days, even demanding she sleep with him to repay it. How can he think like that? She wanted to make sure they understood who was backing her!
But Paul didn’t move. He sighed. “Elsie, this money has other uses.”
Elsie looked at him in confusion.
Paul continued, “Can you lend me another 30 grand? I’ll pay you back double in a week.”
Elsie took a few seconds to process. Paul was actually asking her to borrow money. She hesitated and said, “Paul, you know I don’t have money…
Paul replied, “Didn’t I give you plenty of luxury gifts and bags? I even bought you that sports car. When I make money, I’ll get you something better.”
Elsie wasn’t too happy, but she leaned against Paul’s arm. “Paul, why suffer like this? As the heir of the Powell family, you should have endless money. Wouldn’t that be better?”
