Chapter 35: It’s Dangerous For You To Be Here

Simon nodded.

He brought me to a coffee shop afterward, which was inside the Greensmith Hospital. And they don't just serve ordinary coffee here.

The tiny caramel macchiato in front of me already costs a hundred dollars-More than my monthly allowance.

I smiled as I tasted the strong flavor of the coffee on my tongue.

"It's delicious, sir," I complimented as I took another sip. "I already expected it to taste good. A coffee that costs this much is really expensive." If their coffee didn't taste good at this price, they might as well close the shop.

I expected him to be disgusted because of what I said. A hundred dollars might be nothing to them, but it's already a fortune for me.

But he felt the exact opposite.

"I'm amazed that you can talk to me like this and say what's on your mind without any filter," he said with a smirk.

It was unusual for me to see an older businessman drinking iced coffee instead of black coffee. The fear I felt earlier completely disappeared and was replaced by admiration.

"Even Mason doesn't talk to me like this. Ash and Haze are afraid of me, but you're not. That's amazing."

"Because there's nothing to be afraid of, sir." I placed the cup of coffee back on the table. I had finished it before our conversation even started.

The taste was addictive, though.

"So, what do you want to ask?" He glanced at me, waiting for me to speak. "Is it about my son?"

"No." I almost raised my eyebrows, but I managed to stop myself. "No offense, but I'm not even interested in him."
