Ascendance Of The Talented Tycoon

Chapter 6.

"Well, I don't know how well the mall is doing, but here's a potential buyer." Janet laughed as she pointed at Henry.

"Huh?" The shirt chubby man who had just walked into the scene froze upon hearing Janet's statement.

"Well, I'd like to see the one who wants to buy out the mall." The man chuckled.

"Here he is by my side," Janet smiled as she pointed at Henry who had his hands in his pockets.

"Well..." The man muttered as he stared at Henry.

"Meet our rich young master, Henry.."

"Henry, meet the Manager of the Crystal Mall," Janet smiled as she Introduced Henry to the manager.

"Well, young man, are you intent on buying out the mall?" The short chubby man frowned as he looked at Henry.

Even though there was a hint of disdain in his eyes, he didn't dare look down on the latter as the latter had a kind of strange aura that made him stand out.

Even though he was dressed poorly and was looked down upon by all the people present, the calmness in his eyes was Otherworldly. It was as if he wasn't affected by all that was happening.

"Yeah, I'd like to buy out the mall, how much is it worth?" Henry smiled.

"Well..." The man stuttered as he didn't know what to say.

"Sir, I don't think this man would be able to buy the mall, he hasn't even paid for these sets of clothes he bought." The sales girl by the man's side whispered into the man's ears.

The man frowned as he looked at Henry, even though he was quite intimidated by the aura Henry was emitting, he wanted to lash out at Henry but still managed to keep his cool.

"Well, aren't you going to tell me how much this mall is Worth?" Henry frowned as he looked at the man.

"Well, the Mall is worth about a million." The man frowned as he looked at Henry.

"Well then prepare the legal papers, I will buy it out now." Henry smiled.

"Henry, are you fucking stupid, or didn't you hear what the Manager just said?" Janet frowned as she looked at Henry.

"And why's that?" Henry smirked as he looked at Janet.

"You're not able to afford a meal three times a fucking day and yet want to buy out the mall." Janet sneered.

"And how's that your business?" Henry frowned.

"Enough!" Janet yelled.

"You're a fucking fool, do you know what offense you've made?"

"Tell me what they are?" Henry smiled, feeling rather amused.

"Well, you fucking tried to steal clothes worth fifty thousand dollars, and yet you claim that you want to buy out this mall?" 

"Who the hell do you think you are?" Janet sneered.

"Well, how's that your problem?" Henry frowned.

"Guard!" The manager yelled, calling on the security guards.

Immediately, three heavily built men came into the scene as they stared at Henry, their eyes full of hostility.

"Well, then I'd suppose you want to do me a favor." Henry chuckled.

"Since I'm a potential buyer, or would say, I now own the mall, throw this lady out." He continued.

"Huh?" Janet froze as she couldn't believe her ears.

"Who the hell do you think you are?" Janet frowned.

"A penniless man like you wants to make the guards throw me out, I'd suggest you make them throw you out instead."

"Well then, would you be willing to believe I could buy out the mall if I pay for these clothes." Henry smiled.

"Well then young man, you'll have to pay for the clothes you just bought." The manager smiled as he looked at Henry.

Even though his eyes were full of disgust, he did that dare act rashly, the calm way in which Henry was acting made him rather suspicious and unwilling to take any action.

"Well then take this." Henry smiled as he pulled out a card to the sales huh.

"Huh?" The manager suddenly froze seeing the black card in Henry's hand.

"Sir, can I see your card?" The man frowned as he asked rather politely, his attitude undergoing a 360° change while his voice trembled.

"What's with the card?" Henry frowned as he looked at the card in his hand.

It was then he realized that he was holding the black card that Mia had given him before she left. She said that the card contained the money he was to use in building his empire and that if he wanted more, he could always ask.

"Well then sure." Henry nodded as he gave the card to the man.

The man trembled as he collected the card from Henry and examined it closely. With each second, the shock on his face deepened and he couldn't help but look at Henry in shock.

"Sir, is this your card?" The man frowned as he looked at Henry.

He had subconsciously changed the way he addressed him.

"Well, it's mine. Is anything wrong with it?" Henry frowned.

Immediately, the man felt his legs turn to jelly. Why the hell was he so blind not to recognize a big shot standing right in front of him? That was the legendary Obsidian card.

And yet, it had appeared in the hands of the man in front of him. Banks would only give this card to ones who have a certain amount of money in their account, and the amount was one his poor mind dared not think about.

"Henry, you see that the card in your hands is making the manager so angry that he's trembling," Janet frowned as she pointed at the manager who seemed transfixed on the spot.

"Well then, I'd advise you to fall on your knees and ask for mercy." Janet sneered as she continued.

"Are you sure about that?" Henry chuckled as he looked at the man.

Even though he didn't know what the man had seen in the card, he was quite confident that a card given to him by Mia wouldn't be an ordinary card. Perhaps, the man had recognized it.

"Are you fucking deaf?" Janet growled as she looked at Henry.

"Guards, I think it'll be best if you get rid of his trash, he's already managed to annoy your manager." Janet smiled as she pointed at the man who was still trembling from shock.

Immediately, the man came back to his senses as she raised his head to look at Janet who had just spoken. What the hell was she saying? He was sure that she had no idea of the card Henry was holding.

"Who the fuck do you think you're talking to?" The manager yelled as he lost his cool.

"Well, I suppose this should face him, not me." Janet grinned.

"Idiot!" The man sneered as he looked at Henry.

"Sir, I'm sorry for doubting you earlier, but I'd like to plead that you change your mind and not buy out the mall anymore." The manager sighed as he pleaded.

Even the owner of the mall didn't have the right to hold an obsidian card, and yet the shabbily dressed young man in front of him had one. What the hell was that hinting?

It meant that even if the young man wanted to acquire the mall without paying a dime he would be able to do it and he couldn't help but shiver when he thought of this.

"Sir, I think there's something wrong. Why are you pleading with him?" Janet frowned as she couldn't believe her eyes.

"Something is wrong with your head." The manager yelled as he turned to face Janet.

"But he's just a trash who can't even afford a good piece of clothing." Janet sneered.

"A piece of trash?" The manager snorted coldly,

"I think you're the trash instead." He yelled.

Janet frowned as he couldn't hear her ears, what the hell was the man saying? Had he suddenly gone blind?

"I..."

"Shut the fuck up and open your eyes!" The man yelled angrily, cutting off Janet.

"The card in his hands is the Obsidian card, and yet you're saying that he's just a piece of trash. I'm afraid you'll not be able to spend all the money inside the card even if you squander it for the rest of your lives."

"Well then, she's just a small fry, why bother listening to her." Henry chuckled as he said.

"You..." Janet gritted her teeth as she pointed at Henry..

"Well then, I thought I told you not to be shocked when you see what's more than you can handle later on." Henry shrugged.

"But then, it seems like you didn't listen to me.".

"How dare you talk to me that way!" Janet yelled as she lunged at Henry. 

"Impudent!" The manager frowned.

"Guards, throw her out." He ordered.

immediately, Janet felt two strong arms holding her even before she was able to make a move.

"Get your dirty hands off me," Janet yelled.

"you're not supposed to take me, you have to take that piece of trash instead." Janet continued as she struggled but it was all futile.

"Sir, shall we go into the office to discuss this." The manager smiled as he looked at Henry.

"That'll be no need, I'll take my leave instead, help me pack those clothes, and I'll pay." Henry shook his head as he turned to the sales girl.

He wasn't interested in buying the mall in the frost place, it was just Janet who had been stepping on his ego that made him want to buy it.

"No sir, you don't have to pay, it's all yours." The manager said hurriedly as he turned around to glare at the sales girl who was standing behind.

Immediately, the girl rushed to pack up the clothes Henry had bought.
