When they heard this familiar sound, the saleswoman, who was serving the woman, immediately raised her head and looked in the intern’s direction in disbelief.

The woman was also shocked. The payment was successful?

“The payment…”

The intern swallowed and said while looking at Alger dumbfoundedly, “Is successful…”

The intern dared not to believe it. Even she thought the machine would show that there was an insufficient balance in the card, unexpectedly, the payment was really successful.

Everyone present was so shocked by what the intern said that they couldn’t speak for a while. They doubted if they heard it wrong.

Only Alger looked indifferent from the beginning. Hearing that, he nodded and said, “Hm, wrap them up for me. These jewelry will be counted in your commission.”

When the intern finally reacted to the situation, she was so excited that her face flushed. The commission she could get from this one million dollar deal was comparable to a few months of her salary here!

“Alright, sir, here’s your receipt. Put it away first. I’ll wrap the jewelry up for you right away!” The intern said excitedly and handed the receipt to Alger.

“Wait!”

Right when the intern was about to take out the jewelry Alger chose, the saleswoman and the woman on the side rushed over quickly.

When the saleswoman heard Alger say that this would be counted in the intern’s commission, her eyes turned red out of jealousy. That wasn’t a small amount of money!

“Is there something wrong with your machine?”

The woman came up and looked at the intern as she scolded, “This kid looks so poor. How could he possibly be able to pay? You must have made a mistake!”

The intern was already dissatisfied with the woman’s attitude. Seeing that the woman still wanted to make trouble, she was upset.

“Madam, please be careful of what you say. How could a large shop like us make such a mistake?” The intern rolled her eyes at the woman and said in dissatisfaction, “If you think that our POS machine is broken, you can also try paying with your card.”

The woman’s expression changed slightly. How could she possibly be able to afford such expensive jewelry? These were worth more than a million dollars altogether!

Even then, the woman still couldn’t believe and accept the fact that Alger could pay such an amount so casually.

The saleswoman could be said to be the only person who couldn’t accept this fact even more than her.

If this was true, didn’t it mean that she had just lost six months of her salary?!

Thinking of this, the saleswoman went forward and snatched the POS machine from the intern’s hands into her hands. She had the same thought as the woman, thinking that there was a problem with the machine.

However, after looking for a long time, she found that the machine was fine. The machine the intern had used was even a new one that they had just changed yesterday. How could it possibly have any problems?

“The POS machine isn’t broken…”

The saleswoman mumbled to herself. At the same time, she looked at Alger subconsciously.

Alger looked at the woman and the saleswoman as a hint of ridicule flashed through his eyes.

The saleswoman gulped her saliva. She couldn’t accept this at all. If Alger was truly able to afford the jewelry, didn’t it mean that Alger’s identity and status were even more superior than this woman’s?

However, Alger’s clothes made him look so poor. How could he possibly afford these jewelry?

Could it be that the intern had entered the wrong decimal place when she put in the amount?

Thinking of this, the saleswoman frowned and said while pointing at the intern, “New girl, you don’t do things meticulously. Did you enter the wrong amount? Or did you put the decimal point in the wrong place?”

“No.” The intern felt very aggrieved in her mind after being reproached like this. “Since the amount is quite large, I was more careful than usual when I entered it. How could I possibly enter the wrong amount?”

“Haha!”

When Alger saw that the saleswoman and the woman weren’t willing to believe that he had paid such an amount, he immediately smacked the receipt on the table.

Alger looked at the saleswoman and said in a mocking tone, “Open your eyes wide and look at the amount shown on this receipt carefully!”

The saleswoman quickly picked up the receipt with her hand, took a deep breath and looked at the amount on the receipt nervously. She even pointed at it with her finger and started counting.

“Ten, hundred, thousand, ten thousand, hundred thousand…”

Counting to the last digit, the hands of the saleswoman trembled. The amount on the receipt was completely correct!

This proved that Alger really bought all these jewelry. He didn’t even blink after spending so much money!

“Do you see that? What do you think? Is the amount wrong?”

Alger snickered when he saw the reaction of the woman and the saleswoman. He took the receipt back from the saleswoman’s hands and said coldly, “If it weren’t that I still need this receipt, I’d be disgusted by how dirty it is after being touched by people like the two of you!”

“You!”

The woman wanted to reproach Alger instinctively, but thinking of the amount of money she saw just now, she held back her words forcefully.

What a joke. Since Alger could spend such an amount of money without hesitation, his identity and status must be above theirs. The only explanation was that Alger was a bit more low-profile, which was why he looked…

Anyway, no matter what, someone like Alger was definitely a being she couldn’t provoke.

With nothing to say, the woman walked aside with a resentful look. Facing Alger’s mocking gaze, she dared not to say a word.

“What about me? Do you deserve the things my wife touched? Why don’t you look at who you are? Your makeup can’t even cover the wrinkles on your face anymore. If you have the money to buy jewelry, you should go do a facelift instead, old woman!” Alger said coldly.

The woman was so enraged that her chest heaved. However, she couldn’t vent the anger in her mind. She could only stomp her feet furiously, then turned around and said while grabbing her husband’s ear, “Why are you just standing there and watching? Buy me jewelry quickly!”

“Ouch!”

There was unspeakable bitterness in this man’s heart. He could only cover his ear and nod quickly.

Right at this moment, a group of security guards rushed here swiftly, followed by the sound of rapid footsteps.

“Who’s making trouble here?!”

Once they came in, the security guard in the front glanced at everyone with a security baton in hand and shouted with a cold voice.

Seeing this, Winnie was so scared that her face turned pale. She quickly hid behind Alger as Alger looked at the saleswoman on the side coldly.

The saleswoman also reacted after hearing the question. These security guards were called by her here to deal with Alger, but that was when she didn’t know Alger was a rich man. Now, the saleswoman finally understood that instead of the woman, Alger was the one who couldn’t be offended.

So, the saleswoman quickly came up, looked at the security guard in the front and said with a smile, “Oh, it’s just a misunderstanding. It’s already been dealt with. I’m sorry for making you come for nothing.”

“What do you mean?” the security guard froze and said in confusion.

“I mean no one’s making trouble now. You should leave quickly.” The saleswoman glanced at Alger’s reaction carefully as she spoke, afraid that she would piss Alger off.

Seeing this, the security guards were a bit dissatisfied in their minds, but they could only leave..
