Jonell exited the Hammerreach International Airport with a huge grin on his face.

Meanwhile, Anderson was escorted by a team of bodyguards, who followed him behind.

"Well, should we go our separate ways now that your bodyguard work is completed?" Jonell asked Anderson with a smile.

"Naturally. But I need some sort of confirmation that I've received your payment," Anderson answered respectfully.

Jonell replied gratefully after recognizing Anderson had indeed saved his life, "Rest assured that the payment will be made. I can also transfer it to your personal account if you provide the details to me as a token of my gratitude for not abandoning me in a time of need."

"No need," Anderson replied.

Jonell didn't press him any further. He had his assistant transfer the money before bidding Anderson goodbye. "Farewell."

Anderson disappeared into the crowd shortly after that.

Jonell sighed as he got into the car. "Monfort seems like a good choice now that I can't return to New Yoke. Besides, I still have my business here."

Then, he took out a cigar from a luggage compartment nearby, lit it, and took a puff.

His assistant, Jamie Campbell, hesitated slightly before asking, "Shall we head to Miss Smith's place or a hotel?"

Jonell narrowed his eyes, pondered for a moment, and he asked, "How is she?"

"Not good. She needs to have medications constantly. That's why she is always drowsy. She is rarely in a clear state of mind during the day," Jamie answered.
