Chapter 127 I Like Wearing Fake Watches. So What?
"Violet, I'm Kevin. We arranged this yesterday. Could you help me get something from my car? It's two gift boxes on the passenger side." Kevin waved at Violet and handed over the Toyota car keys.
"Kevin?" Upon hearing Kevin's introduction, Violet's eyes widened in astonishment, looking at Kevin incredibly, utterly incredulous.
The young man in plain and somewhat shabby attire, even wearing a fake watch, was the same Kevin who had contacted her through Facebook last night, expressing interest in buying the luxurious Mercedes E300L Premium Edition.
"Are you Mr. Kevin, who talked with me on the phone last night? I'll go get what you need for you." Violet still couldn't believe it, asking for confirmation once more.
"No hurry. First, please go get what I asked for. We'll talk about it later." Kevin casually waved his hand, directing Violet to get something from the car.
"Alright! I'll go get it for you right away." Violet enthusiastically ran over, stealing a glance at Kevin, taking the keys, and sprinting outside.
Violet had imagined Kevin's appearance countless times last night. She had thought Kevin was a handsome, wealthy young man or maybe a plump tycoon.
She hadn't expected Kevin to be such an average, even slightly unsophisticated young man. Just a while ago, Violet found this man inexplicable, even thinking he looked a bit rural.
Upon closer inspection, Violet suddenly found Kevin's understated yet sophisticated attire exuding a sense of understated elegance with a touch of nobility. Even that counterfeit watch appeared remarkably regal at this moment.
Violet even felt that Kevin's watch looked more refined and better. The one owned by Xavier might actually be fake.
Although Xavier had a decent monthly income, this Vacheron Constantin 6654 cost almost forty thousand dollars. It is a watch that is not affordable for the average salary earner.
"Violet? What's going on?" Xavier, watching Violet suddenly change her attitude to please Kevin, immediately sensed that something was amiss.
As a seasoned salesperson, Xavier was good at observing people. Seeing Violet's behavior towards Kevin, he already had an inkling that Kevin was not an ordinary person.
"Mr. Kevin, did you say you already had an appointment with Violet?" Xavier looked at Kevin strangely, feeling a bit embarrassed.
Kevin gave Xavier a brief glance and chose to ignore him.
Just then, Violet rushed in from the door, her face flushed with excitement. The commotion here also caught the attention of other salespeople, who looked over curiously.
Violet was carrying two shopping bags, one prominently marked with Seiko and the other with Rolex and the Rolex crown emblem.
Simply by looking at the packaging, everyone realized that the items inside were definitely valuable.
"Mr. Kevin, I've brought what you asked for. Take a look." Excited and flushed, Violet handed over the items with slightly rapid breaths.
Kevin took the car keys and shopping bags from Violet, opened the box, then turned to Xavier and said, "Xavier, do you really understand watches? Could you take a look at these? Are these two watches real or fake? I just bought them from the counter at WGY Plaza. Could you check if I've been cheated? They say they'll compensate tenfold for fakes. If these are indeed fake, I'll get 20 watches. I’ll give one for each of you here."
"This is the diamond-studded Rolex! It's so beautiful! This one would cost tens of thousands of dollars." The wealthy lady who had just been dismissive of Kevin hurried over, eyes gleaming as she watched the open gift box, now brimming with admiration.
"This rose gold watch might cost tens of thousands of dollars as well."
"The total price of these watches together could be equal to that of a Mercedes C-Class."
"How could these be fake? The receipts and invoices from the counter are all here; these can't possibly be fake."
"These watches are too beautiful!"
Salespeople forgot they were still on duty, rushing over with admiration and respect.
"Mr. Kevin, these two are definitely real. I made a mistake. I’m sorry." Xavier was now awkwardly speechless, feeling somewhat disillusioned.
"Xavier, you always brag about your Vacheron Constantin. Could it be that yours is the fake one?" A saleswoman who had heard Xavier say that Kevin's watch was fake immediately mocked Xavier, showing doubt.
"No, his is real; mine is indeed fake. But I like wearing fake watches. So what?"
Kevin snapped the box closed and put it back in the gift bag, saying to Violet, "Violet, have you prepared the car I ordered from you yesterday? How much is the full payment? I need to drive away now; I want to give this car to my mother-in-law as a birthday gift tonight. I must take the car immediately."
