A Poor Youth's Journey to Success
Chapter 43

Eric also bought the same watch, but Eric bought a more expensive watch. The watch Eric bought is more premium and limited so the price is twice the price of the watch owned by nanako.

Eric certainly does not question that, because after all, his money is now unlimited and Eric is confused on how to manage and spend it.

After Akio told the price of the watch he bought, Akio kept peeking at Nanako to see what her reaction was.

However, Nanako's expression remained indifferent. However, all the other girls were stunned by the price of the watch belonging to Akio.

"30 rib dollars?!" yell jiso.

The other girls could not say anything, their mouths wide open in shock. Even some of the other female students who were sitting next to each other were constantly peering at their tables.

The watch itself already looks spectacular from every angle and feels like a high-end luxury.

The price revealed after that was too outrageous and some girls in the store ended up staring at Akio with different expressions on their faces.

"Oh my God, Akio! You're really willing to spend money on Nanako!" said one of the girls with envy.

After all, the man had spent 30 thousand dollars just to buy a gift! How capable would he be to buy it without going bankrupt? Is there a girl who can resist this kind of temptation in the world?

"Do you like it Nanako?"

Despite knowing that Nanako did not like him, even if she was hard-hearted, she would definitely be touched by his gift this time, right? Akio thought in his heart.

Nanako did not bother to answer his question. To be honest she was starting to get fed up with the way Akio treated her.

Nanako had already felt this kind of treatment from all the men she had met. Except for Eric, Nanako felt like a freak had a casual expression when she saw him. Another case if it was another man, they would continue to stare at nanako with another gaze.

After being ignored despite her good intentions, Akio could not help feeling a little uncomfortable.

While all this was happening, Eric was still standing at his starting place with the watch in his hand.

"Heh. Hey, your name's Eric, right? Why don't you take the watch you bought for Nanako and show it to us as well?"

In his mind, akio thought that eric was the surest reason why nanako ignored him this time around. Therefore, he was targeting Eric now to be humiliated.

"Forget mine! The watch I bought is not as good as yours. You don't have to see it!" said Eric.

"That's right, Eric! Don't be shy, we won't laugh at you. Show us!" jiso

Before he could even answer, jiso had already walked over to Eric. He took the box out of his hand and placed it on the table.

All the girls are waiting for him.

Imagine comparing a watch for 30 thousand dollars to a bracelet that costs only a few dollars!

The difference will be like heaven and hell.

Eric opened the box in one quick motion.

If nanako accepts this hour, everything has been settled and she will not owe Nanako anything more.

He waited for the mockery to begin.

He waited, and waited, and waited.

But it never came. Neither Jiso nor Akio mocked him at all.

Peering to see what took them so long, he saw jiso staring at his watch, an expression of extreme shock on their faces all.

The other girls were still recovering from the revelation, their mouths were wide open, speechless.

"F*h! That's a premium watch limited in the world! I saw this thing online and it sold for about 75 grand!"

"I've heard it too! Could it be that this is just a watch that is a premium brand? I don't want to believe so but... The colour. It seems too realistic to just be a clone!

"What do you mean high-class imitation? It was easy to authenticate it from a fake so imitating it from the start was impossible!"

"That's right! Good Lord! Eric's watch is worth 75 grand!"

Akio was also dumbfounded and he felt cold sweat begin to drip from his forehead.

Everyone was still shocked speechless!

Even the surrounding female student customers had descended from their seats and gathered around their desks at this moment.

"Let me see that!" nanako said as she carefully picked up the watch from jiso's hand.

After examining him closely, nanako looked at Eric with a look of disbelief on her face. "...It's totally real. It's really authentic. Eric, did you buy this?"

Eric doesn't know how to answer.

While all this was happening, Akio's face became as red as a tomato. His cheeks were flushed with surprise and anger. He felt as if he had just been slapped hard!

Eric doesn't want to compare his and Akio's clocks.

Akio felt like he had a punch in the stomach this time. He was so embarrassed at this moment.

"Hurry up and answer us Eric! Did you buy this watch?"

All the girls looked at Eric expectantly. Their eyes were sprinkled with admiration and excitement at the same time.

"this watch was given to me by a friend, so I didn't feel good about wearing it. Because I have nothing left to compensate for your watch before, so I can only give this to you." Eric lied.

"Yes God! Eric, don't you know the value of this watch? Are you sure you won't regret it if you give it to Nanako now? I'm telling you seriously that it's still not too late for you to regret it now!" jiso said as he felt the weight on his chest slowly lift up. He was almost scared to death just now. If eric really bought a premium watch that cost 75 thousand dollars, then he might be able to become a low key rich heir!

Unlike most other girls, Jiso does not feel disgusted towards Eric. But he from the beginning considered Eric like an honest and innocent person.

However, it would be shocking and unbelievable if a poor person like Eric suddenly became a richer heir than all of them.

Fortunately, that's not the case.

"I didn't know the value of this watch before, but I do know now. I don't regret anything. Accept it, Nanako, "Reported Eric as he gently pushed the box with the clock in it back to Nanako.

As for Nanako, she simply looked at Eric with her eyes wide open.

The clock is precious. It could even be the most valuable and valuable item in Eric. But here he is, just give it to him.

nanako's heart was touched beyond words. As for Akio, steam was felt coming out from his ears.

He had lost a severe face today because he was completely caught off guard by the situation!

Moreover, it was even more humiliating as it all happened in the presence of his personal goddess! Akio felt that he would only further embarrass himself if he continued to stay there.

After glaring at Eric with a vengeful gaze, Akio got up and snorted before leaving angrily.

Eric himself wanted to leave. After all, his main goal of handing the watch over to Nanako had been completed. He didn't even want to stay for breakfast anymore.
