The Man's Decree novel Chapter 146

Chapter 146 Take A Look

Yvonne shot Jared a glare and snapped, “You’re saying that the watch is a knock-off without even looking at it! It’s glaringly obvious that you’re jealous! Are you feeling resentful that your girlfriend’s ex-boyfriend is doing better than you?”

“I’m just stating the facts.” Jared flashed her a faint smile.

In response, Yvonne harrumphed. “Pah! This is plain jealousy! If it’s true, do come up with proof!”

Seeing so many people speaking up for him, Lincoln asserted with a frosty expression, “We’ve just made each other’s acquaintance today, so why are you targeting me, Jared? If you don’t give me an explanation for this matter, mark my words that I’m going to have you brought out of here on a stretcher!”

However, Jared merely sneered, “Okay! You know better than anyone whether the watch is an imitation. Since you want to be humiliated, don’t blame me for granting you your wish.”

While saying that, he stood up and ordered, “Give me your watch. I’ll prove it to you all!”

Instead of giving the man his watch, Lincoln withdrew his hand and demanded warily, “How are you planning to prove it? This watch of mine cost a few hundred thousand. Can you afford to replace it if you were to damage it?”

He would never hand it over, for he knew that it was a knock-off. In truth, he was merely creating an illusion of being a wealthy man.

“That’s simple. We’ll know whether it’s an imitation after smashing it to the ground,” Jared answered nonchalantly.

 

As long as the gold watch shattered, one could instantly tell whether it was the real deal. The mechanisms in an authentic gold watch were made of gold, but a knock-off couldn’t possibly imitate that as well.

“You want to shatter my watch? This watch cost a few hundred grand, Jared! Can you afford to pay me back after ruining it?” Lincoln questioned guiltily upon hearing that.

He couldn’t allow the man to shatter the watch since it was an imitation, and that would be clear as day once smashed.

“Exactly! Can you afford to pay for it?”

“You dare smash a watch worth a few hundred thousand? What kind of authentication method is this?”

“Don’t boast if you don’t have that capability! And here I thought that you really knew how to verify whether it’s real!”
