Chapter 40: When Trouble Comes Knocking! (2)
Noah wanted to avoid trouble because he didn’t want to punish anyone today; he saved his energy to punish Jack Donovan.
However, he can’t let it slip away when trouble like this comes knocking, right?
He chose to punish this spoiled, wealthy girl and get extra profit from his revenge ledger rewards.
’How much will my system reward me?’ He excitedly checked his system, slightly ignoring the fuming girl before him.
Noah was too excited to see his system present him with a ’Revenge Ledger Update’ to notice how annoyed the girl was before him.
...
[Revenge Ledger Updated.]
[Target: Betty Stone]
[Status: Active]
[Suggested Option: Humiliated]
[Bonus: $5,000 | Personnel +2 | Skill +2]
[Would you like to start your revenge? (Y/N)]
...
The spoiled girl’s face flushed upon hearing the man in front of her calmly say he wanted to teach her about discipline and good manners, which deeply offended her. No one ever did that to her.
"You wait here! I will call my dad and ask him to fucking punish you! How dare you plan to teach me? Who the hell are you!?" she roared while taking out her cell phone and making a call.
"Young man, hurry up and apologize to this young girl. If not, you and I are both in trouble," the shop staff pulled Noah from his system.
Noah almost laughed when he heard how ridiculous the shop staff’s words were.
He never cared what would happen to her, and if he had the option to punish her, he would.
Ignoring the shop staff, Noah decides to take revenge on Betty Stone, this spoiled girl, even though he is disappointed to see the rewards.
Noah chose [Y]
[Please choose the revenge option you want to activate.]
He was unsure what would happen to the spoiled girl after he selected the option [Humiliated]. Yet, he couldn’t help but look forward to witnessing this arrogant girl get her punishment.
Noah’s curiosity was answered immediately when the shop staff addressed the spoiled girl, saying, "Miss, sorry your card was rejected. Do you have another card?"
"Rejected?" the spoiled girl shouted in shock.
She frowned and stared at the card in disbelief. This had never happened before; she knew exactly how much money was on the card.
"This is just ridiculous! My card limit might cover your income for ten years, and the price of the shoes is only $300! It’s impossible that my card was rejected because of the limit. This must mean your card machine is broken. Try again!"
The shop staff felt irritated by the girl’s disrespectful comments, yet she had no option but to comply with her request. She attempted to swipe the card once more, but it still declined. It was unusable.
"I’m sorry, young Miss, but this card cannot be accepted. Please pay with cash or try a different card." The shop staff said. She almost failed to suppress a laugh when she realized the spoiled girl’s face flushed bright red from embarrassment.
"I don’t have any money. I gave you my last cash, didn’t I?" the spoiled girl shouted irritably, her piercing gaze aimed at the shop staff as if she intended to strike the woman with her glare.
"Miss, you only gave me fifty bucks. You need to add another $250..." the shop staff said sincerely, unintentionally adding to the spoiled girl’s irritation.
She picked up another card and passed it to the shop staff. "Try this! This one has more money in it..."
The shop staff wanted to avoid upsetting the girl further, so she quickly grabbed the card and attempted to swipe it. Nevertheless, the outcome remained unchanged: the card was declined.
She awkwardly smiled as she returned the card to the girl, saying, "I’m sorry, young Miss... But this card was also rejected."
"I knew it! It must be your card machine. Not my card. Your card machine must be broken!" the spoiled girl shouted, irritated and frustrated. "There is no way in the world my card would be declined by any stores! No fucking way!"
"Young lady, I’m sorry. I can assure you there is nothing wrong with the card machine. It works fine. If you’re having trouble paying for the shoes, I think it’s fair to let this gentleman take them for his sister..." She smiled and apologized to the spoiled girl before turning to Noah.
The shop staff felt it was the perfect moment to turn things around and ask Noah to make the purchase.
"Kind sir, do you still wish to purchase these shoes for your sister?" she inquired anxiously. Having already upset him before, she hoped to avoid further angering him.
Noah is in a good mood after seeing how the spoiled girl, Betty, is humiliated. He was sure it was his revenge ledger that punished her.
Needing to fuel the spoiled girl with anger, Noah happily nodded in response to the shop staff.
"Sure! You can use my card..." Noah pulled out the black card his father had given him and handed it to the staff.
When the shop staff saw the card, she was taken aback—it was the rarest card she had ever seen.
’Wow! This young man owns this kind of card!? He is wealthy!?’ she wondered, lifting her gaze to see the man again before she attempted to swipe it.
Just as the shop staff was about to swipe it, an angry voice echoed from the doorway.
"Betty, why did you call me here in such a hurry? Is someone trying to bully you?"
"Daddy!" Betty Stone’s expression brightened when she saw her father finally arrive.
"You finally arrived, Dad. I’m sorry to bother you, but someone is trying to bully me. He’s trying to humiliate me, Dad..." she snarled, struggling to hold back her sobs.
"What!? Who would make my little Betty cry?" the bald man exclaimed in frustration. Upon noticing his daughter pointing at the man nearby, he directed his attention towards him.
"Who are you? Why are you bullying my daughter?" he snapped angrily.
Noah was left speechless. He couldn’t believe this man appeared as shameless as his daughter.
Too exhausted to talk to him, Noah urged the shop staff to process the payment before asking his system for information about the man—he needed to teach him, too.
Noah was stunned when he read the report about this man and the supermall.
’What the hell... Is this place actually under the Golden Phoenix Group?’
He laughs inwardly, thinking he wasted so much time dealing with these people.
