It's pretty clear from his reaction that he doesn't know who Brandon is. He might not even know who the store manager was, let alone the shop assistant manager the woman was talking about!
"Did Philip tell you to take the car down?" ask Gerald while walking towards Mr. Fairwell, his right hand in his pocket.
Hearing Gerald's question, Mr. Fairwell was immediately shocked.
After observing him from head to toe, Mr. Fairwell then replied in a respectful tone, “Indeed. He told me to deliver the car to a young woman named Bea Yaleman. I have completed all the other necessary formalities. ”
Mr. Fairwell then smiled at Gerald. This must be the man Mr. Hodges said he wasn't even qualified to know his name. After all, there was no way that another young man of his age could become acquainted with such a mysterious figure!
“Bea-It.. It's my daughter! We stayed at that address too!” catherine said in surprise.
“Ah, then, can Denzel Yaleman be a part of your family too?” ask Mr. Fairwell.
"He's my father!" answer Bea.
"I understand. Then this car is officially yours now, Miss Yaleman. Someone told me to hand over the car to you. Here are all the documents and certificates that are complete and required. Can you check to see if the information is correct? ” said Mr. Fairwell handed the car keys to Bea along with a set of documents.
Reading it, he realized that there was no mistake. The car is really his now!
“A-what really happened? Who can buy us such a luxury car?” stuttered Catherine in her excitement.
Mr. Fairwell himself did not answer his question. Instead, he walked up to Gerald before handing out his business card and said, “This is my business card, sir. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you need help!”
He knew very well that Gerald was no ordinary person. Therefore, it was only natural that he wanted to get into Gerald's good books.
After handing over his card, he excused himself before leaving.
“Yes God, is that car really ours now? It's nice!” catherine said, unable to hide her excitement.
The couple themselves were already pale as they exchanged glances. While they intend to blackmail Bea and her mother, to think that they really know such a powerful figure!
Realizing that they cannot continue with their plans, they immediately get into their car, preparing to leave.
“Now wait a minute! Don't tell me you two are planning to just leave!” tease Gerald when he sees the couple.
“Oh, we don't need to compensate? Is that what you still play? Even if you are okay with a scratch on your car, the Bea scooter still suffers a bit of damage! It's time to talk about the compensation you owe him! ” says Gerald while taking a step forward.
“You don't have to pay much actually. Only... Fifteen thousand dollars!”
“L-Fifteen thousand ?!” people around them shouted in shock.
The husband and wife themselves were now staring at him with their eyes wide open.
“Of course, if you choose not to pay us, I can call Mr Fairwell to come back here whenever I want! He shouldn't have gone too far. You can also call your Brandon if you want!”
“T-no! L-let's discuss this issue again well!” the man replied, terrified.
He had reason to be so scared. After all, Mr. Fairwell was a very powerful figure. Moreover, he had treated Gerald and the other two women with him with great respect before! The man and his wife would definitely not get away with it that easily if Mr. Fairwell was summoned again.
Even if they actually called Brandon, they would only be taught a one-time lesson.
“...W-can you lower the number a little bit? We-“
“Oh, would you like to see that! My finger moves on its own!” gerald said as he began to play the number on the card.
“K-we will pay! We will pay, I said!”
From being a blackmailer to being blackmailed, what choice did the man have other than to pay unreasonable compensation?
After awkwardly transferring the money to Catherine's bank account, they apologize to Bea before rushing off as soon as Gerald allows them to leave.
“Bea, please park the scooter below! I'll drive the car too!” catherine said as she held the car keys happily.
Before entering the car, he snatched Mr.'s business card. Fairwell from Gerald's hand.
“Hah! Mr. Fairwell is a connection from our family! Try not to take advantage of the situation to show off!”
