In the Noah's house.
As soon as Greg entered, he found something was wrong.
Alice couldn't stop crying, and Noah's girlfriend, Doris Chamber, was staring at Alice angrily with her hands on her hips.
"What's wrong?" Greg asked quickly.
Doris immediately pointed the finger at Greg.
"What's wrong? Your kid is so uneducated. Nobody taught her how to behave."
"She smashed my perfume!"
Although Doris was Noah's girlfriend and Greg's colleague, she didn't get along well with Greg.
Doris was a snob, and she always looked down upon ordinary employees like Greg.
Plus, she didn't even want Noah to have too much contact with Greg.
Seeing the broken perfume bottle on the floor, Greg frowned, and went straight to Alice.
"Tell me. Did you break her perfume?"
Alice pouted and said aggrievedly, "Dad, I didn't do it on purpose."
"Are you aware of your fault?"
Alice nodded quickly.
"Okay."
"As long as you know you're wrong."
Greg held Alice in his arms and asked her to face Doris.
"Come on. Apologize."
"I'm sorry."
Alice bowed to apologize, not daring to look up into Doris's eyes.
Doris rolled her eyes and growled, "That's it? My perfume costs a lot! It's an MZ perfume."
"Doris, I'm really sorry. Since Alice broke it, I'll compensate you."
At this moment, Noah opened the door and came in. He had gone shopping just now.
Knowing the ins and outs, he immediately said, "Don't bother. You don't need to compensate her."
Doris was furious. She didn't sleep well and was in a bad mood. A child broke her perfume, and her boyfriend didn't even speak up for her.
"Noah, it was mine! How could you say this?"
"Greg is my best friend. You know his situation."
"So what if he's poor? Even the siblings would pay for each other."
"You..."
Seeing that the two of them were about to quarrel, Greg hurriedly smoothed things over.
"Alright, don't argue because of this. Doris, how much should I pay you? I'll give you the money right now."
"I don't need you to pay me. Just go to the store and buy me another bottle."
Noah insisted on not letting Greg compensate, but Doris disagreed.
So, the four of them got in the car and went to the cosmetics store in the shopping mall downtown.
They entered the door, and the clerk welcomed them warmly.
When they arrived at the counter, Doris pointed to the identical MZ perfume.
"This is it."
The salesperson took it out and smiled warmly.
"Miss, you have good taste. This is the latest perfume we just launched in summer, and the price is 2000 dollars."
Doris looked at Greg. "Didn't you say you want to compensate me? Buy this."
Noah was slightly taken aback.
This MZ perfume looked precisely like the broken one, but that bottle only cost a few hundred dollars. Why was this one so expensive?
He remembered this fact because Doris urged him to give her some money to buy perfume.
"Doris, are you sure? I remember that bottle of perfume only cost a few hundred dollars."
The MZ perfume that Alice broke was actually a fake. Doris asked someone to buy it for her.
Seeing that she was about to be exposed, Doris was shocked and furious.
"Don't say nonsense. How could an MZ perfume only cost a few hundred?"
The salesperson also said, "Yes, sir. A genuine MZ perfume couldn't cost only a few hundred dollars unless it's a fake."
Noah looked at Doris. His expression changed, and he understood in an instant.
"Doris, you've gone too far."
"Noah, will you shut up?"
Greg had already discovered something wrong from their conversation.
However, as Noah's friend, he pretended he had heard nothing. After all, Noah had helped him a lot over the years.
"Okay, I'll pay."
"Miss, please bring me ten bottles."
Ten bottles?
Doris was stunned.
Was Greg crazy?
How could he buy a dozen of perfume like buying beer?
This was an MZ perfume, and ten bottles would cost 20 thousand dollars.
Doris barked, "Greg, what do you mean? How can you afford ten bottles? Are you trying to embarrass us?"
The salesperson looked at Greg.
His clothes were ordinary, and he didn't seem like a wealthy man. The salesperson heard Doris's words and had the same doubt.
"Sir, are you sure you want ten bottles?"
Many customers and clerks looked at them, wondering what kind of idiot would buy ten bottles of MZ perfume at once.
"Yes, do as I say."
Greg took out his card and handed it to the salesperson.
Doris even wanted to drag Noah away because she had almost expected that the other people in the store would think they were clowns when they found out that Greg had no money at all.
However, after entering the password, the printer started to print the invoice.
The payment was successful!
Everyone was stunned.
