Chapter 85 - 85: Maybe He Is For Real
Michael looked very helpless.
After working for so many years, this was the first time he had encountered such a situation. Someone thought that he was pretending to be an account manager at Oprana Bank.
“I’m the account manager of Oprana Bank, but I forgot to bring my employee tag when I rushed here!” Michael said desperately.
“Hehe, this kid forgot to bring his card with him, and you forgot to bring your employee tag with you. Can you use some other excuse if you plan on lying?”
Yvonne mocked him mercilessly. Then she threw the check onto the floor, crossed her arms, and shouted at Connor, “Connor McDonald, do you think we’re monkeys? First, you said you wanted to buy a villa, then you found an actor to put up this act with, and now you’re giving me a counterfeit check. Aren’t you lying about buying a villa?
“You’re underestimating me. I’ve worked in this showroom for so long and have met many wealthy people. I can tell at a glance whether you can afford a villa here, and you still want to pretend to be a rich kid with me. What a joke!”
Connor stood where he was and looked at Yvonne playfully and somewhat impatiently.
Connor had never thought that the person Thomas Morgan ordered to come here was unreliable. Michael Page was such an important account manager, and he couldn’t even prove his identity.
“Miss, I’m the account manager of Oprana Bank. You can call the bank to confirm it if you don’t believe me!”
Michael hadn’t expected things to turn out this way. He said to Yvonne anxiously, “I don’t think there’s a need to call the bank!”
Natasha suddenly said, then turned to Yvonne and said, “Yvonne, impersonating a bank employee and forging bank checks are illegal. I think we should call the police to get them arrested!”
“Right, call the police to arrest them both!”
In the showroom, the other sales ladies shouted as well.
When Chloe heard that they would call the police, she instantly panicked. She quickly yelled at Michael, “Aren’t you the manager of Oprana Bank? Quickly do something to prove your identity!”
“How can I prove my identity now? This is the first time I’ve encountered such a thing. I’m just here to deliver a check to Mr. McDonald…”
Michael screeched desperately.
“Prove? You should go and prove yourself to the police later!”
Yvonne took out her phone as she spoke, wanting to call the police.
“Yvonne, we’re all colleagues. There’s no need to make such a big deal out of it. There must have been a misunderstanding. How can Mr. McDonald be a liar?”
At this moment, Chloe was a little scared. She grabbed onto Yvonne and begged.
“Chloe Lawson, you don’t have to worry. I know you’re not in cahoots with Connor. You must have also been deceived by him. When the police arrive, I’ll prove it to you!” Yvonne replied indifferently. Then, she was about to call the police.
“What’s going on? Why do you have to call the police?”
At this moment, a middle-aged man’s voice came from outside the showroom.
Yvonne couldn’t help but be stunned when she heard the voice. Then, she quickly turned and saw that the person who came in was the general manager of Evergrande Real Estate!
“Mr. Quintin, why are you here today?”
Yvonne put down her phone and asked the middle-aged man with a smile.
“I happened to have nothing to do today, so I came over to look. But before I came in, I heard you guys talking about calling the police. What’s going on?” the middle-aged man asked expressionlessly.
“Mr. Quintin, someone here is pretending to be the account manager of Oprana Bank. He even wrote a counterfeit check and wanted to trick us into selling the villa. We are going to call the police!” Yvonne pointed at Michael and shouted.
After Mr. Quintin heard that, he couldn’t help but turn to look at Michael. Then, he was stunned. With a shocked expression, he said, “Mr. Page, why are you here?”
In the showroom.
Michael was also stunned after hearing Mr. Quintin call his name. He looked at Mr. Quintin, puzzled.
“Mr. Page, you haven’t forgotten me, right? I’m Sean Quintin. Our company applied for a loan from your bank. Back then, you were the one who received me. Later, I even offered to treat you to a meal…”
Mr. Quintin smiled and said to Michael.
Yvonne, Natasha, and the sales ladies in the showroom were all stunned when they heard that. They seemed confused.
No one had expected Mr. Quintin to know this person!
Moreover, from what they could gather from Mr. Quintin’s words, anyone who wasn’t a fool quickly understood that Michael was the account manager of Oprana Bank!
“Is he for real?”
A trace of fear flashed in Yvonne’s eyes. Then, she looked at the check that she had thrown onto the floor in a daze. She thought to herself, ‘If Michael is really the account manager of Oprana Bank, then… then isn’t this check also real?’
Natasha, who was encouraging Yvonne to call the police to arrest Connor and Michael, was completely dumbfounded. She couldn’t hide the expression on her face.
“Oh, Mr. Quintin. I remember now!”
Michael carefully looked at Sean before instantly recalling his memory of him.
“Mr. Page, why are you here today? The last time invited you for a meal, you insisted that you were busy. Wiry don’t we go and have a drink now?”
As the general manager of Evergrande Real Estate, Scan’s need to be well-connected with banks was enormous.
Basically, every time they developed new properties, they had to go to the bank to get a partial loan and then wait for the properties to be sold before they repaid the loan.
And although Michael was only an account manager, he was the manager in charge of the credit department, so Sean spoke very politely to him.
“Mr. Quintin, your employees just said that they wanted to call the police on me. How could I have the mood to have a meal with you?”
Michael said to Sean with an unusually helpless tone.
“Call the police? Wiry would they want to call the police on you?”
Scan immediately asked gloomily.
“Today, I came to deliver a check to Mr. McDonald, but these two women insisted that my check is counterfeit. They also claimed that I was pretending to be a bank manager, so they wanted to call the police!”
Michael looked at Yvonne and Natasha as he calmly explained.
When Sean heard that, he couldn’t help but turn to glance at Connor.
Although Connor’s outfit was a little ordinary, Sean wasn’t a fool. He knew that for Michael to deliver the check personally, he was not just any Tom, Dick, or Harry.
“Mr. McDonald, Mr. Page, I’m really sorry about this. I’ll take care of it now. Please wait a moment!”
Sean didn’t dare to be the slightest bit negligent. He spoke respectfully to Connor and Michael.
“Mr. Quintin, I think you should discipline these two people. It wasn’t easy for me to bring a VIP like Mr. McDonald to your showroom. I don’t mind if your employees don’t thank me, but you wanted to call the police on me. How do we deal with this?”
Seeing that Sean had confirmed Michael’s identity, Chloe had become somewhat braver.
“No problem. I will deal with this seriously!”
Scan replied in a low voice.. Then, he turned to Yvonne and the others and said darkly, “Who suggested calling the police? Step up to it now!”
