Chapter 528 Why Can''t I Make the Transfer?
At the sound of the decision, Autumn froze.
She thought she was doomed.
Surprisingly, Kingsley forgave her.
"Th-Thank you, Mr. Nicholson!"
Once she thanked Kingsley, she burst into tears.
She was truly grateful to Kingsley.
"Thank you, Mr. Nicholson! Thank you… I''m sorry for my mistake earlier. Very sorry. And thank you
for sparing me..."
She cried,ughed, thanked, and apologized for herself all at once.
In an instant, she drew the attention of the people who were there to conduct transactions.
Suddenly, there was amotion at counter number one. A woman in her seventies, carrying a
worn-out handbag, was demanding in a very upset tone.
"Why can''t I transfer the money to them? Why are you stopping me?"
The bank staff at the counter tried to exin gently, "Ma''am, perhaps you should verify the
recipient''s identity again. As you know, transferring money to strangers can be risky."
"Verify for what? I don''t understand!"
The old woman took out a worn-out savings passbook from her handbag and continued, "They told
me that I won the first prize! I can only receive the prize money after I pay a transaction fee of seven
thousand today.
"I''m an elderly widow. I''m depending on this prize money for my old age. Why are you stopping me
from transferring the fee?!"
It was clear that she had been locked in a stalemate at that counter for quite some time.
The people waiting in line behind her were getting impatient.
"They won''t let you transfer because they suspect the recipient is a scammer who wants to swindle
your hard-earned money! Why won''t you listen, olddy?"
"That''s right! Get out of the way! We''re waiting to do our transactions!"
"Where are the bank security guards? Get this olddy out of here! She''s wasting our time!"
However, the security guards just stood aside, hesitant to pull the olddy away.
They were afraid that she would copse on the spot in an act to defy and cause them trouble.
Having watched the scene, Trevon furrowed his brows and walked to the counter. He shoved the
bank staff aside.
"Why are you wasting time with this olddy? Move over! I''m opening an ount and making a
deposit for someone."
Trevon could have done it in the VIP room for Kingsley.
But unfortunately, theputer in the VIP room was broken today, so he could onlye outside to
open an ount for Kingsley.
Through the ss, Trevon respectfully said to Kingsley who was standing outside the crowd, "Mr.
Nicholson, pleasee forward. I''ll process your ount opening and deposit right away."
Upon hearing that, the customers in the queue grew furious.
They protested in dissatisfaction one after another.
"What''s going on? Why is VIP allowed to cut in line?!"
"Exactly! First, there''s an olddy blocking our line and wasting our time. And now, someone else is
cutting in line! What''s wrong with your bank?"
"Yeah! We''re here to do our business too! Why should we let this person cut in line? This is
discrimination! I''m going to report you!"

Trevon''s face turned pale and then red.
He wanted to just ignore them and assist Kingsley directly, but he had just promised Kingsley that
he would treat all customers equally.
He couldn''t just give Kingsley special treatment after making the promise.
That would be going against his promise earlier.
Just then, something came into his mind. He spoke into the microphone and stated, "Everyone,
please quiet down. This gentleman, Mr. Nicholson, is making a deposit of 150 million. The
procedures areplex. If any of you are in a hurry, you can go to the adjacent counter and wait in
line."
As soon as he stated that, the crowd fell silent.
Those who were shouting and protesting just a moment ago quieted down.
They gawked at Kingsley in shock.
150 million?!
They had never seen anyone deposit 150 million in their entire lives.
In an instant, everyone instinctively took a step back, clearing the path in front of the counter.
Only the olddy remained in front of the counter, stubbornly refusing to move.
