Chapter 112: Engagement Announcement

Jordan was there in the garage when Jerome gave Arthur the cars. Apparently he didn’t hear or refused to accept Arthur’s wish to buy it with his own money.

"Do you like it Artie?" Jerome said giving the keys for the sports car.
Yeah! Who’d not love a free sports car that’s worth almost a million dollars?
