Chapter 27 : Their Jubilation

  "Welcome Sir and Ladies to the Summit of Peak Performance and the Crown of Top Elegance!" A middle-aged man in a fitting suit and unique charisma walked towards them and his theatrics were clearly affecting Riley.

  *Cp* *Cp*

  "Uncle. Were you acting in the movies?" Her eyes were like stars as she checked him from every angle.

  The man coughed in his fist lightly to hide his embarrassment before smiling faintly while answering : "Busted I guess, I never thought my little act would be instantly recognized by the young dy. You're blessed with sharp eyes it'd seem."

  "Tehehe... I just watch a lot of drama in my free time that's all." Riley enjoyed the compliment while the man himself looked towards Bryan and attributed the situation of him carrying this young beauty on his back to youth which he misses dearly.

  "Pleasure meeting you Sir..." The salesman in this fancy and luxurious car dealership offered his hand towards Bryan for a handshake expecting the young man to lower his girlfriend to the floor and get her off his back first before taking his hand but much to his surprise none of that did happen.

  What did happen was Bryan taking his hand and calmly shaking it while saying : "Bryan. Bryan O'Neal, and the pleasure is all mine."

  For some unexpined reason the salesman felt annoyed seeing this young man standing there being so rexed with his back straight and a bombshell on it while shaking his hand, "Welcome Mr Bryan. How can I be of service tonight?" Which is why he refused to let go and while speaking and being as polite as he could be, the middle-aged man jerked his body while twisting his torso as he made another theatrical gesture of pointing towards the different cars.

  His aim however, was to cause Bryan to lose his bance since he's already carrying weight on his back and his arm which he's using in the shake is quite extended away from his body which is surely going to affect his center of gravity.

  "Ugh!" The salesman unconsciously released a grunt while a painful expression covered his face which twisted and deformed into a diabolical visage which frightened Riley so much that she hid herself behind Brian.

  Bryan's expression remained the same like still water as he looked with a pair of cold and emotionless eyes at the middle-aged man before opening his mouth to say in the same calm and even tone of voice : "Oh my! Looks like you've dislocated your shoulder Mr... If you want me to help you with that just nod."

  The salesman was starting to sweat on the forehead because of this sharp pain but more than that he was starting to realize his own mistake of trying to py games with this mysterious young fellow who turned out to be quite strong judging by the strong grip which keeps squeezing the bones of his hand with no end on sight, the amount of fear he's feeling towards this Bryan O'Neal was rising sharply which is why this middle-aged man kept nodding repeatedly while wiping his forehead with a handkerchief he pulled from the inner pocket of his suit.

  "Good. Now tighten your core after taking a deep breath then grit your teeth, on three... ready?" Bryan asked while taking another step closer towards the salesman which armed one of the security guards but the middle-aged man stopped him with a gesture before nodding towards Bryan who smiled before saying : "Three!" Then jerked the man's hand upwards so suddenly before letting go and patting him on the other shoulder while saying : "Now that we've pyed our little game... can we get down to business?"

  "Most definitely! By all means... please take a seat everyone." The salesman massaged his shoulder which is still giving him a bit of pain but after getting stared at by this little monster dead right in the eyes he never wants to do anything that might cause him to see this Bryan O'Neal annoyed once again, for someone like himself who experienced the ups and downs of life for many years he just knows which people to cross and which people to keep his distance but it's also his experience and god's given gift of sharp instincts which got him to this pce in the first pce.

  Simply because he knows how to choose to react in these situations and which ones to befriend.

  Bryan changed Linnet's position from his back to the front and carried her like a princess towards the lounge in the center of the floor which is surrounded by the most expensive cars then sat down on the comfortable sofa with her on his p, "Bring us some milkshake, I happen to have pie and my dy is quite the sweet tooth." But what he said shocked Riley and the salesman and Linnet gred at him before burying her face in his shoulder to hide her deep blush.

  "Right away Mr Bryan," The salesman turned towards the other workers in the dealership and shouted, "Have someone quickly prepare three milkshakes and bring them over! I don't care if you get it from somewhere else, just make sure that it's the best of the best... I'll fire all of you if you cause me to lose faith. Now you have 5 minutes to make it happen!"

  "Y-yes boss!"

  "T-this..."

  "What's going on?"

  "I don't know."

  "Who are these people?"

  "I don't know!"

  "They look kind of important though."

  "...."

  Riley watched the hustle and bustle then looked towards the middle-aged man and smiled : "Uncle you're so bad."

  "I guess I was too caught up in the act that I forgot to introduce myself." The man scratched his cheek while looking outside through the gss at the sun which was minutes away from hiding in the horizon.

  "Look Linnet. This is brother Alex's famous pie, he inherited the recipes of all the food he makes from his grandmother who spent her life living it the countryside." Bryan was ignoring everything else and opened the box after snatching it from Riley who puckered her lips then looked away while cursing under her breath and said : "Ungrateful prick."

  Linnet's eyes brightened once she saw the four slices of apple pie each decorated with a different topping, especially when the delicious aroma of the freshly baked pie entered her nose.

  She couldn't help herself and swallowed her saliva but Bryan quickly satisfied her by using the fork to take a bit of the pie then dip it in the Whipped Cream before offering to her while saying : "Is the view to your liking?" He asked while watching every detail of her beautiful face.

  "En. Good choice." Linnet said before opening her mouth to eat the pie then moaned from pure bliss after tasting it while cupping her cheeks cutely and squinting her eyes.

  Even the middle-aged man was lost in memories of his youth after seeing these two lovebirds but the arrival of one of his employees with a tray and three milkshakes interrupted his daydreams, of course the man refused to have anyone else do this job which is why he personally offered them to his guests with a welcoming smile on his face.

  Bryan seemed to be satisfied by the hospitality of his host which is why he nodded before opening his mouth to ask : "I never got your name." He said that while holding Linnet's drink for her with one hand and the other was going around her waist as she sat on his p and held the pte which had another slice of the apple pie on it, meanwhile his girl was "Nomming" away on the slice which she's holding in her hand and gring at Riley who dared to be sneaky and cimed a slice for herself!

  The middle-aged man took a bottle of water from the table then sat facing Bryan while making sure not to block the view of sunset for this young man's missus, of course the only reason he judged them to be newlyweds is because of their attitude which screams burning passion and the matching rings on their fingers.

  "Charles. Charles Olivera." Charles said then took a long drink to wet his parched throat while inwardly celebrating that the tension has cleared between them.

  "You the owner?" Bryan asked while looking at some of the cars which he quite likes.

  Charles of course noticed the direction Bryan's eyes were pausing and smiled inwardly since these picks are quite valuable and the ones looking to get their hands on such expensive cars usually have a lot more in their accounts, "At your service Mr Bryan."

  Bryan nodded then looked at Linnet and said : "I want to buy four cars, two for this goddess and two for my personal use but let me ask you this first."

  "I'll do my best Mr Bryan even if I can't personally do it myself, I'll pull all strings to make it happen... I'm not bragging but I do have quite a massive web of contacts both within and outside the country." Charles said while gesturing for his employees who were intentionally loitering nearby to scram which they quickly did.

  "It's not supposed to be that hard Mr Charles, I just want to hire sixteen people. Specifically eight drivers and eight guards to accompany each driver which I pn to split them into four shifts, can you make it happen? I'm asking for professionals here not amateurs of course!" Bryan said while putting the finished milkshake aside then offered Linnet who listened while enjoying the treat and the view.

  "That's it?" Charles asked while feeling slightly disappointed since the request is so easy but he quickly encouraged himself by the fact that this customer is still going to buy four cars from him.

  Bryan smiled and said : "Don't you think you're in a bit of a rush here Mr Charles? We just met less than thirty minutes ago yet here you are asking for my hand... just focus on passing my test first or you might slip before the finish line!"

  Charles realized that he was indeed getting greedy and pulled his head down from the clouds after hearing the subtle warning.

  "For my Lady I'm thinking cssy, optimum-performance, and safety which is why I'm taking this Rolls-Royce Phantom and this Mercedes G-Css." Bryan said before adding : "Of course I'd never dare choose the colors for you honey." Then kissed her cheek and she panicked once Riley gave her an obscene gesture of a finger going through a circle made by the other hand!

  Charles acted like he saw nothing while enjoying seeing these young ones interact, "Which colors do you prefer Mrs O'Neal?" He asked but didn't expect the naughty-looking girl to burst out ughing while the pampered girl chocked on her pie!

  'What did I do this time?' Charles asked himself this while handing Bryan a bottle of water after opening it for him.
