Triumph Above All Chapter 208
Triumph Above All Chapter 208
Timothy’s face flushed red when he heard Skylar’s request. He was not even certain he could get a 20 thousand dollar discount. Now that it had skyrocketed to 1.2 million dollars, it was even more likely that he won’t be successful. However, Timothy was quick to think on his feet. Even if I convince the boss to give him a 20 percent discount, are you certain he can afford the remaining 80 percent? That’s a total of 4.8 million dollars! Skylar must be putting on a show and trying to intimidate me. I must not show any sign of weakness now. We shall see who gets the last laugh!Timothy scoffed, “All right, then. You can pay the remaining 4.8 million dollars first. I’ll negotiate the remaining 1.2 million with the boss. I’m a man of my word. If your boss refuses to give you the discount, I’ll cover the cost myself.”“Timothy, you…” Jerry said worriedly as 1.2 million dollars was not a small sum.“Don’t worry, Dad. He’s just a soldier in the military. How can he afford 4.8 million dollars?” Timothy assured. Jerry did not object to his son’s plans because he thought it was reasonable.Timothy triumphantly turned to the salesman and urged, “What are you waiting for? Take his credit card and charge 4.8 million dollars. I’ll pay the remaining 1.2 million dollars!”It would be foolish of the salesman to ignore the transaction. Furthermore, he was aware that Timothy was the Sales Director of Silverton Corporation, earning at least 600 hundred thousand dollars per year. If he scrimped and saved, he could afford 1.2 million dollars, which was roughly two years’ worth of pay. “Okay, I’m on it.” The salesman then went to look for the cashier to close the deal.The cashier appeared a minute later, and Dianne handed him the credit card. She entered the password into the card, and the transaction was approved. Jerry and Timothy, who had stayed to witness Skylar’s humiliation, were astounded. Does Skylar actually possess $4,8 million?“That’s impossible! Did you key in the wrong amount?” When Timothy grabbed the receipt to examine the amount, he grew pale at the sight of the numerous zeroes.How’s that possible? Skylar paid 4.8 million dollars! Based on our agreement, I have to foot the remaining 1.2 million bill.“Mr. Moores, Mr. Stone has already paid his share. Please decide if you would like to ask the boss for a 20 percent discount, or pay for the remaining,” the cashier said.Jerry’s knees trembled and he nearly fainted as he heard the news. His son had spent days deliberating over the purchase of a 300-
thousand-dollar car, but now he had to assist Skylar in paying the 1.2 million dollar car loan.The father and son were unable to accept their defeat. They refused to back down because doing so would be even more embarrassing. If they changed their minds, they’d be a laughingstock in Cloudtopia. The consequence was even direr for Timothy, who was the Sales Director of a company. He would be seen as untrustworthy and unfit to be a leader. Jerry and Timothy were faced with a difficult decision.After much deliberation, Timothy informed the cashier. “I’ll make a phone call.”
