Jason pushed through the throng of onlookers and approached the security guard, stating, “Brother, I’m the deputy general manager of the Aurous Hill Convention and Exhibition Center. My family owns this venue. Could you please let me get a closer look at the two cars?”


    “No!” replied a recently retired army security guard with a firm tone. “Our boss has instructed us to ensure that only the car owners can approach them!”


    Jason felt a surge of anger and frustration wash over him.


    How could he not touch the cars at all? This was beyond embarrassing, especially since this exhibition center belonged to his family!


    If he truly couldn’t get close to the cars, didn’t that put him on the same level as Charlie?<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    No! Jason wouldn’t allow himself to lose face in front of Charlie.


    Suppressing his frustration, he spoke gently to the security guards. “Brother, I’m also a car enthusiast and the owner of this exhibition hall. Just let me take a brief look at the cars up close. I assure you, I’ll make it worth your while in the future.”


    The security guard, a man of integrity and discipline, declined Jason’s request without hesitation. “Sir, I’ll say this onest time: if you’re not the owner of these cars, you cannot approach them!”


    Seeing the guard’s unwavering stance only fueled Jason’s anger. Gritting his teeth, he threatened, “Do you realize my family owns this exhibition center? You’re just a security guard, and you dare to stand against me? I can have you fired on the spot!”


    The guard calmly responded, “I’m sorry, but I’m a security guard for a privatepany, not for the Aurous Hill Convention and Exhibition Center. Even if you are the owner, you cannot control or fire me!”


    “You!” Jason felt humiliated. “This is absurd!”


    Then, raising his voice, he dered, “Do you think I can kick you out of my own exhibition center right now?!”


    The guard maintained hisposure, replying, “We have a contract with the management of the Aurous Hill Convention and Exhibition Center to rent this space for today. You have no authority to remove me. My job is to protect these cars. If you have any concerns, feel free to contact my supervisor.”


    At that moment, Charlie approached Jason with a smile. “Oh, Mr. Grant, what seems to be the problem? Are you upset because the security won’t let you touch the cars? It looks like we’re in the same boat after all!”


    Jason shot Charlie a re and then nced at ire, feeling embarrassed.


    He had been boasting earlier, but here he was, unable to get close to the cars, while the security guard showed him no respect. It was truly humiliating!


    Jessica, noticing Jason’s frustration, quickly chimed in, “You’re just a peasant, Charlie. Who do you think you are topare yourself to Mr. Grant? Should I have the security throw you out right now?”


    Just then, a reporter stepped forward with a camera. “Brother, the security has already told you not to touch the cars. Please stop causing a scene; you’re blocking our view and making it impossible to take good pictures of these cars.”


    The crowd began to echo in agreement, “Exactly! Why are you so desperate to touch the cars? Just admire them from a distance!”<fn0629> Original content can be found at FιndＮovel</fn0629>


    “He must be one of those vain people who want a picture of themselves touching the car for social media!”


    Jason’s face turned sour. If he couldn’t touch the cars, didn’t that make him just like Charlie?


    With a darkening expression, he approached the security guard once more. “I’m giving you thirty seconds to step aside. If you continue to block me, I will have you and these luxury cars removed from my exhibition hall immediately! Let’s see how you n to conduct this auto show then!”<h3 ss="has-text-align-center" id="chapter-list"><strong></strong>
