Chapter 282

Mr. Ashcroft had known Miranda for quite some time now. He was well aware that despite her youthful appearance, she was as sharp as a tack.

But honestly, if people didn't know her, they could easily be taken in by her innocent and pretty façade.

Timothy mused for a moment. "You're right, it's quite the tough decision for you. Don't worry, I'll handle it. I'll have a chat with Beck. Once everything's settled, I'll get back to you."

Miranda flashed a charming smile. "Thank you, Mr. Temple.”

Miranda's politeness eased the discontent Timothy had felt for her earlier nonchalant attitude. Perhaps she was just a young girl with not much life experience, overwhelmed by the situation, he assumed.

After their chat, Timothy settled the payment for Miranda's company, as agreed. While doing so, Timothy started wondering if Mr. Ashcroft had been pulling his leg all along, suggesting that money would sway this girl.

Honestly, with her sweet nature, she'd probably be accommodating even without the cash. Yet, here he was, out of pocket by quite a bit.

Sure, he had a good amount saved with nowhere to spend it, but that didn't mean he didn't feel the pinch.

Miranda watched Timothy leave with a spring in her step. Who would've thought someone would just hand her cash like that?

A simple chat netted her tens of thousands. She wouldn't mind more opportunities like this. Mr. Temple was quite the gentleman, much better than Beck.

Shortly after Timothy left, the loudspeakers crackled to life with a lively tune, more intense this time. The shooting range on the other side seemed to be buzzing with activity.

After all, it was a rare event where the two top shots were squaring off with real ammo for the first time.
