Chapter 242 Domestic Men Can't Compare to Foreign Men!
As soon as Matthew spoke, the rest of the Johnson family turned curiously to Sandra. They were all eager to know how Sandra would deal with Ryder.
However, Sandra scanned the crowd with her eyes and didn't respond positively. "I have my own plans for dealing with Ryder. You don't need to worry about it. Just focus on your own responsibilities. If anyone slows us down, I won’t care about that we’re related."
Everyone in the Johnson family instinctively shivered and nodded repeatedly, indicating their understanding.
Alright!
This lady had a strong temperament and was not to be messed with.
They had to turn a blind eye, pretend to be deaf, and simply eat and drink.
Amidst the clinking of glasses, Abigail approached Annie with a glass of wine.
In a somewhat familiar tone, she said, "Annie, can I toast to you?"
Annie looked Abigail up and down. Although they had an average relationship, they had never had any conflict before. And among the Johnson family members at the table, she was the only one who didn't appear so "down-to-earth."
So she nodded and said, "Sure, let's have a drink!"
The two of them toasted.
After finishing their drinks, Abigail glanced around and whispered, "Annie, can I ask you something?"
"Go ahead!"
"Well, you've been living abroad for many years, you must know a lot of foreign friends, especially handsome guys who are also rich, right?"
Annie nodded, slightly proud. "That's right! And I actually know quite a lot of them!"
Abigail's eyes lit up and she said, "Could you help me get to know one of them?"
"Oh? Ting, are you interested in handsome foreign guys?"
Abigail nodded eagerly and replied, "I’m definitely interested! Girls in our society all understand one thing. The men in our country aren’t not good enough for the women!
"We need to be matched with foreign guys! After all, they are considerate, gentle, gentlemanly, and romantic! Wow! Just imagine how great it would be if I had a foreign boyfriend!"
Annie nodded in approval. "Ting, you’re absolutely right! My experience abroad all these years has been exactly like that. Handsome foreign guys are much better! They’re handsome, and they excel in all other aspects compared to men in our country. I can’t help but complain about it.
"Don't worry, I will definitely introduce a suitable foreign guy to you if I know one. We must not give the advantage to local men."
Abigail grabbed Annie's hand excitedly. "Annie, you're the best!"
Her heart blossomed with joy as she fantasized about when she would have a foreign boyfriend who would take her abroad to settle down. Just thinking about it was exhilarating!
What if this foreign boyfriend happened to be a prince from some royal family?
She would become a noble princess.
It would be much better than being a wealthy housewife in that insignificant place called Houston.
Abigail made up her mind.
During Annie's time back in China, she had to take care of her. Everything else had nothing to do with her.
"Come on! Annie, I’ll toast you..."
...
Outside SR Group's entrance.
Sarah circled around a Mercedes-AMG S 65L in disbelief. She asked, "Is this...is this really yours?"
Ryder helplessly said, "I already bought it, how could it be fake? How about you give it a try?"
Sarah nodded excitedly.
During lunch, she received a message from Ryder saying that he would show her something great after work.
At that time, she was confused.
But now, she completely understood after she saw Mercedes-AMG S 65L.
They say men like luxury cars, but women are no exception.
Sarah, the president of SR Group, still drove a hundred-thousand-dollar Mazda, which paled in comparison to the cars driven by people of the same status in Houston.
She had long wanted to experience the feeling of driving a luxury car.
They got into the car. Ryder got in the driver's seat while Rex got in the back seat. They started driving toward the Platan Height villa.
Along the way, Ryder asked Sarah, "How do you feel?"
Sarah, satisfied, replied, "This car is worth over three million and truly lives up to its price. It's much more comfortable than my Mazda. You get what you pay for."
Ryder nodded and said, "If you like it, this car is yours."
Sarah was taken aback and surprised, "Really? You're giving me such an expensive car? What about you?"
Ryder nonchalantly answered, "It's simple. Rex can drive your Mazda, or we can buy another one of these cars. Whatever you like!"
Sarah wanted to say that Ryder was too extravagant, but after a moment of consideration, she realized that as the owner of Villa No. 1, he didn't care about money.
Money was not a concern for him, whether it was the Eternal Love worth five million that he had given her earlier, or the few million he had loaned to her family without hesitation.
Although she wasn't sure where he had gotten so much money, she understood after going through so much that Ryder truly cared for her. If he wasn't telling her something now, there had to be a reason why, and maybe one day in the future, when the opportunity was right, he would reveal everything.
Suddenly, Sarah's phone rang. It was Karen. She hesitated for a moment then answered the call.
On the other end of the line, Karen's panicked voice came through. "Sarah! I need your help urgently. If you don't come, I, your dad, your brothers, and your uncle's family won't see the sun tomorrow!"
Sarah was confused, wondering what had happened now. Karen continued shouting, "Time is running out. Hurry over to the Dynasty KTV. Remember to bring one million!"
The call ended abruptly. Sarah furrowed her brows, looking puzzled. Just a few days ago, Karen had made a similar phone call asking for money. And now it was happening again. Why was there trouble every day? Sarah wanted to seek Ryder's opinion.
Ryder held his shoulders and replied, "Since we have nothing else to do, let's go and take a look. If we don't go, you'll definitely worry!"
Sarah blushed and awkwardly said, "I'm sorry..."
"It's alright."
Although Ryder Clark still didn't know what had happened with Karen and the others, the Huangchao KTV was Josh's territory, so it was definitely related to him.
It was likely that certain people had offended Josh without thinking.
Sigh!
What bunch of idiots...
Five minutes later.
Ryder and the others arrived at the Huangchao KTV.
A few lackeys stood at the entrance of the Huangchao KTV. When they saw Ryder, they were slightly stunned before quickly approaching and respectfully greeting him. "Mr. Clark, why are you here?"
Ryder replied, "I'm here for someone named Karen. She called and asked us to come."
The faces of the lackeys changed when they heard that...
