Walked into the bank, Jack got in line.
When the broadcast called his name, he went to the counter. But he was shocked to see the person behind the counter.
It was Shirley!
What a coincidence.
Jack narrowed his eyes. This Shirley was Tommy's girlfriend.
Although they had never met, Jack heard some stories about her and saw her pictures through Katherine.
He didn't hate her, he was a little bit angry about her.
Shirley had a pretty face and a nice job. Tommy was lucky that she was even willing to take a look at a loser, a NEET like him.
It was up to Shirley how much money she wanted as betrothal gift. He was pissed at the Perry Family, because they took the money he tended to use on his mom. He was forced to help his brother-in-law at no cost.
Jack took a deep breath, trying not to feel so blue. He smiled and put the bank card on the counter, "Hi, I want to withdraw some money."
Shirley was about to ask how much he needed, but she frowned when she saw the Bauhinia Card, "Sir, you sure this is a bank card?"
She repeatedly checked the plastic card while asking.
Jack was stunned for a second. Was that possible that Mr. Wand gave him a fake card?
On second thought, if he could bring out 200 thousand to pay her mom's hospital bill like it was nothing, it couldn't be a fake card.
"I'm sure." Jack nodded, but he was looking her up and down.
He couldn't tell her height for she was sitting there, however, the suits showed her amazing body figure. Her fair skin and delicate facial features generated men's desire to protect her.
He signed to himself, such a nice girl, just didn't know how to pick a man.
Shirley frowned even harder, but she didn't stop the card-reading process.
Her patience drained when the computer said the card couldn't be read.
Bang.
She smacked the card on the counter, and said emotionlessly, "Sorry, sir, this card can't be read."
Fuck!
Mr. Wand lied to me?
First, he gave me 200 thousand, and then fobbed off a fake card on me. It couldn't be right.
"Well, can you please try again? I promise you it's real." Jack was almost begging.
He and Katherine divorced, so he wanted to move into a new place with his mom.
Katherine took the last 20k, which made him so broke. Without money, not to mention pay for his mom's treatment, he couldn't even survive.
"Sir, did you do this on purpose?"
Shirley raised her eyebrow, speaking in a cold way, "I knew you were looking me up and down. If you wanna hit on me, at least come with a real debit card. You are wasting other clients' time, please leave, or I'll call security."
Jack froze. What the hell?
She didn't wait for his explanation. She held her arms in front of her chest, "Security!"
Suddenly, two securities walked over.
It was a busy morning with many clients at the bank, and most of them cast their eyes on Jack.
Jack panicked, he pointed the card and said, "This is a real card, and I am here for real business, how can you throw me out?"
Shirley, wearing a stone-cold face, gave him no response.
The security asked in a serious voice, "Sir, please leave. You harassed one of our staff during work hour, we'll call the police."
"I…" Anger rushed to his throat, he didn't get the money, and now he was considered a pervert.
Right at that moment, a potbellied man in suits came over.
"What's wrong?"
Shirley's attitude shifted right away, twisting her body and acting all delicate and touching. She pouted, "Manager, this guy wants to withdraw money with a fake card. And he was giving me prying eyes."
This scene confused furious Jack.
She could change from cold to flirting that quickly!
He remembered that Katherine told him she was a pure and innocent good girl. She and Tommy had only held hands since they were together.
He was neither stupid nor blind.
Shirley … How was she pure, innocent and restrained?
The middle-aged man clouded his face, and the way he looked at Jack was completely hostile.
"Sir, this is a bank, please behave yourself. As the manager of this bank, I ask you to leave; otherwise I'll let the security cast you out."
The two securities smirked. It was an open secret that Shirley was the manager's mistress.
Trying to flirt with Shirley? This dude must be insane.
She twisted her body even harder after hearing out the manager. She pouted again, "Manager, don't waste time on him, just ask the security to throw him out."
He got so provoked but he didn't lose his temper, he just looked angry.
He only wanted to withdraw money from the Bauhinia Card Mr. Wand gave him. He was not gonna accept the fact that everybody was taking it on him.
He was a little bit angry at her, but now he saw her reactions, he totally lost his mind.
"Get him out of here!"
The manager frowned his eyebrows and yelled for Jack didn't move at all.
If it wasn't for his position, he could have ordered the securities to cast him out for a very simple reason – he cast greedy eyes on Shirley.
The securities were about to take moves, and the crowd was gathering.
Jack wasn't so easy to pick on, and he wouldn't swallow insult and humiliation silently.
He blew up because he was bullied so badly.
Bang!
Picking up the card and smacking it on the counter, he yelled, "I'm to withdraw money, not to get accused of being a rogue. Do you want me to create a scene?"
Securities stopped immediately.
Though the manager was almost killing him with his eyes, he couldn't help but noticing the Bauhinia Card.
One second later.
The bank manager seemed to be stroke by a lightening. He couldn't think of anything but simply stared at Jack, "What …"
Sweat, size of beans, oozed from his forehead.
"It's fake, manager." Shirley said with a careless sardonic grin, but she was frightened to see the sweat on his head.
Just the blink of an eye, the manager wiped out his sweat and his gloomy face turned into a flattering smile.
He humbled his back to Jack, smiling, "Sir, pardon my rudeness. I didn't know you were a VIP client. Please, come to my office, I will personally handle your business."
Jesus.
Shirley exclaimed in disbelief, "This … this is real?"
"You know nothing!"
Sweat covered the manager's forehead. He first gave Shirley an angry stare, then suddenly turned to Jack with a smiling face, "Sir, this way."
Finally, someone knew who he was.
Jack lifted his eyebrows, throwing a disdainful look at stupefied Shirley, and followed the manager to his office.
Getting the money was priority. He decided to spare the manager since he chickened out. But he had a brand-new impression on this woman.
Meanwhile, he couldn't wait to see how much money was in there, because only the manager recognized it.
The moment they close the door, the silent lobby was filled with noise.
People were giving each other surprising faces.
No one would think there could be such a twist.
Shirley stood where she was, with tears in her glamorous eyes and her body shaking a little bit.
Because she just realized something serious.
She had made a fatal mistake.
A mistake that no one could cover it up for her.
