Chapter 95

In the hotel, a few bodyguards slunk back to their room looking like a pack of kicked puppies.

The fake Calvert was propped up on the couch, his face wiped clean of blood, revealing bruises that painted his nose and cheeks. His body ached all over, and he couldn’t tell if any bones were broken.

He had already called for the hotel doctor to come over and give him a once–over.

Across from him, Kermit was in a panic as he pleaded, “Mr. Wallace, I… I had no idea my niece was such a spitfire. I’ll drag her back here myself to apologize, okay?”

Calvert snorted, thinking about demanding an apology from Cordelia..

“Business is business,” he finally grunted. “I don’t let personal squabbles mess with my deals” Kermit looked like he’d been thrown a lifeline. “So are we still on for the investment?”

Calvert rolled his eyes. “The Smith family is kin to you, so I’ll give you that much respect. But the cash better be in my account quick, or you’ll miss the boat.”

Kermit almost danced with relief. “I’ll get right on it, sir!”

Overjoyed, Kermit responded, “I’ll go straight away and prepare the funds, then bring them right over to you!”

He wiped the sweat from his forehead, then went out to the door and turned back, “Mr. Wallace, you can rest assured that I will educate Cordelia when I go back!”

Thinking of Cordelia, Calvert flashed greedy desire in his eyes, “Send it again after training next time.”

When Kermit left, Calvert showed a biting look on his face, “Oh, we will take as much money as the Delaney family gives us!”

The person next to Calvert suddenly opened his mouth, “Should we withdraw?”
