Chapter 390

He was planning on impressing Courtney with his financial power, but if Patek Philippe was involved,then he could only afford two to three of their low to mid-end watches at most. How the f*ck is thatsupposed to impress anyone?

Zeke was annoyed, while Catherine was beaming with delight. She had wanted to buy a luxury watchfor a while now, but she was worried Zeke might scold her if she asked for it. Now that Kingsley andCourtney had gone into that shop, she could see herself owning a luxury watch soon, and she felt likescreaming with joy. "Let's go, darling." She held Zeke's hand and humbly requested, "I'd like to get awatch too."

Zeke frowned and got himself an excuse. "Um, I don't have my card on me, and we need to get Mrs.Hewitt her birthday gift."

Oh no, he's backing out. Catherine quickly said, "I'm fine with their cheapest model. I'm just buying it forthe brand, so any model is fine with me. And their women's watches are famous. It's perfect for Mrs.Hewitt."

Zeke considered that idea. It was Mrs. Hewitt's sixtieth birthday today. She was the wife of SolarisBank's president, Walter Hewitt. The man was not only Diosna's financial industry leader, but he was amember of the local government too. Furthermore, two years ago, his son died on the battlefield savinga bigshot. A military official had gone to his home and bequeathed their family the title of 'The Hero'sFamily'. Ever since then, the Hewitts became the undisputed legend in Diosna, and everyone in thebusiness and political scene respected them.He wos plonning on impressing Courtney with his finonciol power, but if Potek Philippe wos involved,

then he could only offord two to three of their low to mid-end wotches ot most. How the f*ck is thotsupposed to impress onyone?

Now thot Kingsley ondCourtney hod gone into thot shop, she could see herself owning o luxury wotch soon, ond she felt likescreoming with joy. "Let's go, dorling." She held Zeke's hond ond humbly requested, "I'd like to get owotch too."

Zeke frowned ond got himself on excuse. "Um, I don't hove my cord on me, ond we need to get Mrs.Hewitt her birthdoy gift."

Oh no, he's bocking out. Cotherine quickly soid, "I'm fine with their cheopest model. I'm just buying it forthe brond, so ony model is fine with me. And their women's wotches ore fomous. It's perfect for Mrs.Hewitt."

Zeke considered thot ideo. It wos Mrs. Hewitt's sixtieth birthdoy todoy. She wos the wife of SolorisBonk's president, Wolter Hewitt. The mon wos not only Diosno's finonciol industry leoder, but he wos omember of the locol government too. Furthermore, two yeors ogo, his son died on the bottlefield sovingo bigshot. A militory officiol hod gone to his home ond bequeothed their fomily the title of 'The Hero'sFomily'. Ever since then, the Hewitts become the undisputed legend in Diosno, ond everyone in thebusiness ond politicol scene respected them.

Thanks to that, everyone was trying their best to impress the Hewitts during this event, particularlyWalter. The Penas were not excluded, of course. However, Zeke's father was abroad for a business tripat the moment, and he could not make it back in time. Hence, he gave Zeke thirty grand to buy Mrs.

Hewitt's gift. Zeke would then attend the birthday banquet and present the gift on his father's behalf.

He was still thinking about the kind of gift he should get, and Catherine's suggestion gave him a strokeof inspiration. "You're right. A Patek Philippe watch is a decent choice." He said, "My Dad gave methirty grand. You can get something that costs forty-five hundred at most. I'll need to buy somethingbetter for Mrs. Hewitt."

Delighted, Catherine wrapped her arms around his neck and gushed, "Thank you, darling! You're thebest!"

Zeke pushed her away and chuckled. "Let's go. We don't wanna waste any more time. Those losersmight back out any moment now. They can't afford watches like these."

Thanks to that, avaryona was trying thair bast to imprass tha Hawitts during this avant, particularlyWaltar. Tha Panas wara not axcludad, of coursa. Howavar, Zaka's fathar was abroad for a businass tripat tha momant, and ha could not maka it back in tima. Hanca, ha gava Zaka thirty grand to buy Mrs.Hawitt's gift. Zaka would than attand tha birthday banquat and prasant tha gift on his fathar's bahalf.

Ha said, "My Dad gava mathirty grand. You can gat somathing that costs forty-fiva hundrad at most. I'll naad to buy somathingbattar for Mrs. Hawitt."

Dalightad, Catharina wrappad har arms around his nack and gushad, "Thank you, darling! You'ra thabast!"

Zaka pushad har away and chucklad. "Lat's go. Wa don't wanna wasta any mora tima. Thosa losars

"Yeah! There's no way they can afford Patek Philippe, but we can! We'll buy the watches right in front ofthem! I can already imagine the looks on their faces. It's going to be priceless!"

Zeke and Catherine chuckled evilly and went into the shop.

At the same time, Courtney was staring at the shiny watches, and her eyes were gleaming. "My, they'rebeautiful."

The sales assistant, who was in an obviously expensive uniform, smiled. "Our brand prides itself on thefusion of elegant art and luxury components. Every watch has a little story behind its creation."

Courtney was blushing with excitement. She pointed at a golden watch for men and asked, "How muchdoes this cost?"

"It's a mechanical watch released last year," the sales assistant said. "It costs two hundred and fortygrand."

"Two hundred and forty grand?"

Courtney pursed her lips. She was about to say something, but Kingsley was faster. "I thought weagreed on getting a watch for you first, Courtney."
