“Doctor, how is my son?” Dolly looked anxiously at the child in front of her.
Franklin was lying on the bed with his eyes closed and some blood at the corner of his mouth.
Leon looked at the wounded child with a wave of anger in his eyes.
“Sister-in-law, what’s going on here?” Leon clenched his fists tightly, a pang of guilt in his heart.
Brayden instructed him to protect these three people, but now, the child was injured, how to answer to him?
“Although Mr. Kirkland sent someone to bring over some equipment last time, we have limited conditions here after all.” The doctor replied slowly.
Looking at the child on the bed, Dolly’s heart ached.
Dolly pounded her head hard.
“Sister-in-law, don’t be like this, let’s take the child to the hospital directly.” Leon gently patted the woman’s shoulder.
Dolly nodded firmly, Leon hurriedly carried the child and ran to the car.
“Leon, don’t tell Brayden about this yet, I know he’s been busy with very important things lately.” Dolly said softly.
“Okay.” Leon immediately agreed, looking straight ahead.
The cafe was dimly lit, with low music. Brayden sat in a conspicuous place in the cafe, waiting for the arrival of this person.
After a long time, finally, a man with a black duck-tongue hat appeared in front of Brayden.
“Hello, is this Mr. Kirkland?” The man said hello.
Brayden slowly stood up and sized up the man in front of him.
The features were obvious, the man had a scar on his face.
“Yes, I am, please sit down.” Brayden replied blandly.
“Do you have the money?” The man opened the door and said.
Brayden took a sip of his coffee and looked out the window.
“No.”
Instantly, the man was on fire, stood up and said angrily: “You tricked me!”
Brayden sneered.
He had come from the hotel in the mountain village, how could he bring so much money!
“Don’t get excited yet, I was not in the local area when I got the call, I rushed here from somewhere else, I didn’t have any money on me …,” Brayden explained.
“Then why did you come to see me!” The man yelled in a low voice, suppressing his inner emotions for fear that the others might see something.
Brayden smiled and gestured for him to sit down and talk first.
“I’m in business, so naturally I have to be a little more vigilant. How am I supposed to know if you’re the same driver who caused the accident back then.” Brayden said in a low voice.
“I am!” The man replied urgently.
“No, I’m not the driver, I just saw the accident, by the way, I also saw the driver’s face.” The man hurriedly denied it.
Since the beginning, this man has not said that he is the driver, but Brayden does not think he is just a passerby who unintentionally saw the car accident. So, it was just testing him.
It seems that it should be him.
Brayden sneered a little.
“How about this, you describe the whole process of the accident in detail, if it is the same as I know, then you are an eyewitness.” Brayden said deliberately.
Then the man began to recall the year of the car accident. He said very serious, but also very involved, did not experience people, it is impossible to say so much, even if it is an eyewitness, in the memory of these things, the emotional changes are not so strong.
“Well? Am I right?” The man looked arrogantly at the man across the table.
“Hmm.” Brayden nodded.
But he had no proof! That was the biggest headache for Brayden!
“When will you pay me?” The man asked fiercely.
What a money slave! However, it was a bait.
“Mr. Kirkland, you should know that I’ve only told you part of the story, and I have a lot more here that you don’t know.” The man kept tapping his fingers on the table.
Brayden knew that behind this man, there was another mastermind.
“Here’s the deal, leave me a phone number and pay tomorrow.” Brayden skimmed the man’s eyes.
Instantly, the man’s eyes lit up.
“Pain in the ass, Mr. Kirkland!” the man shouted as he slapped the table.
After leaving his contact information, the man straightened his clothes, looked around, and then left. Looking at the departing back of the man with the duck-tongue hat, Brayden’s mouth curved at the corners.
Leyla don’t let me know that you did it, or I will never hold back on you!
Brayden’s eyes flashed a cold light.
Some people say that people who do business are very cunning, they always have to compare prices, and they will work with whoever gives them a high price.
“What do you say? You went to see Mr. Kirkland?” Leyla stood up “miso” and shouted.
“Miss James, if you don’t pay me, someone will.” The man said sarcastically.
“Pah!” Leyla slammed her fist directly into the wall, her fingers bleeding.
“Aiden, if you still want to hang around, please follow the rules! There are rules in the industry that you men understand!” Leyla’s eyes became fierce.
The man sneered, his eyes full of disdain and disgust.
“Miss James, rules are made by men, the cooperation between me and you is over, you can’t stop me from working with Mr. Kirkland.” Saying that, the man hung up the phone directly.
In fact, he did not want to cooperate with Brayden, after all, if Brayden knew the truth about the car accident, he would definitely not let him go. He just wanted to use this matter to get Leyla to call him for money.
“Wait a minute!” Leyla yelled.
“How much money do you need?” Leyla asked coldly.
“Two million!” The man replied in a low voice.
Recently, he had lost all the money he had, and he had borrowed a lot of money!
Leyla clenched her fist tightly, and her anger was strong.
“Aiden, do you think I am a charity here? Although I have made some money abroad, that is also my hard work, not the wind to come!” Leyla shouted.
If she hadn’t been kicked out of her family’s home, she would have been so down on her luck that she would have earned her own money and spent it herself!
Inside Leyla’s heart, there was some anxiety.
“One and a half million, no less.” The man said in a low voice.
“If it’s less than that, there’s no need for us to cooperate.” Saying that, the man was about to hang up the phone.
“Wait a minute! Deal!” Leyla hurriedly said.
The man’s mouth hooked up a sinister arc at the corners.
It seems she still has money, so maybe next time, she can extort more. The man smiled playfully, and there was a cunning glint in his eyes.
Leyla hurriedly hung up the phone, grabbed her bank card and ran towards the autonomous cash machine.
It had to be settled before it was too late!
If there’s a next time, she’ll make sure to stomp that stinking man!
