Suppose Tom had been saving up for a new car for years. He worked extra shifts, cut back on expenses, and even sold some of his belongings to reach his savings goal. Just as he was about to make the purchase, his company announced layoffs and Tom lost his job. He had to use his savings to cover living expenses and couldn't buy the car.
Can we infer that "Tom purchased the new car he had been saving for"? Yes, no, or maybe?
