"My subordinate was approached by an 'Affiliate' of yours who ran the transaction while he waited outside."

The moment Aldred heard this, he was stunned.

'An Affiliate? Did his subordinate fall prey to one of those com-artists?'

There was no way this esteemed man did not know who this 'Affiliate' he spoke of was, yet he still referred to him as that.

Why?

'It's not our establishment's fault that his subordinate didn't exercise due caution in his trade. Nothing in the Unspoken Rules covers such a thing as that.'

In essence, it was his loss.

However, Aldred could not even dare to think—talkless of speak—such a thing.

"I-I see…" Was all he could say.

"It came as a surprise to me. I thought your establishment perhaps was unaware of the transaction, so I decided to forgive you and personally came to give you a second chance."

In essence, he was pushing the responsibility and blame for the scammer on them, while also seeming like a benevolent person.

'This man is too shrewd!' Aldred respected and feared him even more for that.

"Thank you for your patience with us. The matter was not known to us, so we'll investigate it."

"Hmm. That is good to hear."

Aldred already knew he was going out of his way. That was why the man called this a 'Favor.'

Normally, the KariBlanc Group would ignore such a thing, as it was just a part of business. But now… now things were different.

"I will personally see to it that all parties involved in this transaction are properly investigated… including this 'Affiliate' of ours."

There was no need for too many details. The two parties already had an understanding.

'And since I'm already going out of my way, I might as well throw in a bonus.'

"Of course, we'll also compensate you for the loss you encountered due to the disservice done to you. It'll be at the previous cost price of 4 Gold Coins, so I hope that is fine by you."

Aldred hoped this was enough to satisfy the masked man.

Fortunately, he was right.

"It is. Thank you very much."

"Haha! What are you saying? This much is only natural for someone who's getting into such a relationship with us."

"Hmm. Indeed.

"Hahaha!"

"Hahahaha!"
