As they drank and talked about Nessie's experiences, more than an hour had passed. When the bottle was empty, William waved at Kyle Glanmore.
"What can I do for you, Mr. Devonshire?" Kyle Glanmore walked to William's side and asked softly.
"Sunday, transfer the money."
"Yes, sir."
A minute later, the waiter at the counter quickly walked to Kyle Glanmore and reported that he had received the money transfer.
This made Kyle Glanmore, who was worried, heave a sigh of relief. It was his first time meeting a customer who didn't swipe a card and directly transferred money.
At the same time, he looked at the smartphone in the middle of the table with envy. He thought that if everyone had a smartphone like this, they wouldn't need to use cash in the future.
With this thought, Kyle Glanmore hesitantly looked at William who was drinking the last bit of whiskey in his glass. "Mr. Devonshire, may I ask you something?"
"Go ahead." William put down his glass and looked at Kyle in confusion.
Kyle hesitated for a few seconds and pointed at the phone. "Do you have plans to sell this phone to the public?"
"Of course," William said without hesitation. "Of course I have to market something that has been developed, but it's a pity that the cost of this phone is too high.
Even if I simplify the functions, the final product will still cost tens of thousands of dollars. Plus, the basic communication facilities can't keep up with the demand of the phone's functions. It's also very expensive to use the satellite link. If it's released now, it's destined to be a toy for the rich. "
"That's a pity." Kyle shook his head regretfully. "Looks like I'll have to wait before I can use your product." After saying that, Kyle politely retreated to the side.
After parting with Nessie, William drove around New York City a few times to get rid of all the paparazzi. Under Sunday's reminder, he arrived at a stolen goods store in Queens.
After waiting for ten minutes, he saw Jessie walking out with an unhappy face. William put on a hat and got out of the car. After a few steps, he heard Jessie cursing the people at the stolen goods store for being cowards who didn't even dare to accept a gold ring.
Holding back his laughter, William took out Jessie's wallet from his pocket and threw it on the ground. He shouted at Jessie, "Hey, lady, did you drop this wallet?"
"What?" Hearing the word 'wallet', Jesse immediately turned around and looked at the ground. He glanced around and soon saw a lady's wallet on the ground. "Yes, it's mine. It's mine. Thank you."
After taking a few steps closer, the more Jesse looked at the wallet, the more it looked like his. He couldn't help but think of the time when he stole William's ring. When he was looking for his wallet in a taxi, he remembered that his wallet had been stolen by William at the restaurant.
When he looked up, he recognized William, who was wearing a hat and had his head lowered.
"Ah!" Jessie was so scared that she covered her face with both hands. The irises in her hand fell to the ground with a "ding" and rolled a few times. Under the control of William's spiritual power, it rolled to his feet.
Being caught in the act, Jessie hurriedly turned around and ran when William bent down to pick up the ring.
After running a few steps, he heard William shout, "If you don't want to go to the hospital like your idiot companion, I advise you to be honest."
As soon as she finished speaking, she remembered her partner who was trembling from the electric shock. She immediately stopped in her tracks and raised her hand as she looked around nervously. She was afraid that William would tell a lie to scare her, and the bodyguard that he made up would shoot a stun bomb at her.
Looking at Jessie who was holding her hands in the air and not daring to move, William held back his laughter. He put on the ring, picked up the wallet, and walked in front of Jessie. "Are you surrendering to me, or do you want to kneel down and worship me, the Grand Duke of England?"
"Please," Jessie cried and looked at William pitifully. "The ring is back in your hand, let me go."
"Do you know why no one dares to accept this ring?" Ignoring Jessie's pleas for mercy, William stretched out his left and right hand, revealing the ring on his hand to Jessie.
"This is called the Iris Gold Seal Ring. It is a keepsake of an organization that has existed for more than a thousand years. The reputable shops you went to today are all gangs with inheritances. They know very well that once they accept this ring, it means that they have enmity with us, or even a war."
These words immediately annoyed Jessie and she asked unhappily, "So if I go to Brooklyn, I can make a move."
"God, what the hell are you thinking?" William covered his face. "Didn't you hear me say that this organization has existed for more than a thousand years?"
"But if I don't sell this ring, I don't even know where to spend the night." As she spoke, snowflakes began to fall from the sky. Jessie pretended to be pitiful and lamented, "Why am I so unlucky? Do I have to sleep in a park or under a bridge on a snowy day?"
"Okay, okay, stop pretending." William patted Jessie's shoulder with his right hand. Jessie was so scared that her body couldn't help but sink a little. Just as she was about to say something, she saw William open his left hand and a handful of change reflected in her eyes.
"10 yuan, 20 yuan." Looking at William who was counting the money, Jessie felt that the change was more and more hers. She hurriedly put down her raised hands and searched in her bag.
"Damn it, when did you take it?" Jessie snatched back the change and stared at William with shining eyes. "Why didn't I feel anything at all?"
William shrugged. "It's quite simple. I only learned it for a few minutes."
Jessie stared blankly at William's disdainful face. She lowered her head and muttered in a low voice, "Bastard, I hate people who learn everything quickly."
As she muttered, she saw a huge sapphire ring. But before she could get excited, Jessie looked at it a few more times and found that it was her glass sapphire ring.
"God, you're amazing." The stunned Jessie looked at the smiling William and felt the coldness of the snowflakes on her face. She suddenly had a feeling of being moved. She couldn't help but reach out her left hand and let William put it on her. Then she asked in admiration, "How did you do it?"
Looking at Jessie with disdain, William said with a look of disdain, "Just like that. It's so simple that I don't even know how to describe it."
Jessie was so angry that she wanted to fiercely bite William, but she thought that she was an old hand. Now that someone had taken her things in front of her without any reaction, she wanted to know how William did it. "Teach me, how about it?"
"Hehe, why should I teach you, and …" Before he could finish his words, the rest of his words were blocked by Jessie and couldn't come out.
William opened his eyes wide and looked at the pretty face in front of him. Before he could properly feel it, he felt Jessie's hand reaching into the pocket where she put her phone. Damn it, was this girl's occupational disease? At this time, she still didn't forget to take something from him.
One hand pressed down on his chest pocket, the other hand wrapped around Jessie's waist. The two stood on the street like this, drenched in the snow, quietly sticking together.
After a long time, when Jessie was almost out of breath, William reluctantly let go.
