Chapter 60
“Don't worry. Leave this to me. I'll get a good price."
Louis nodded. "Thank you."
The manager of Patheon Club said, "You don't need to be so courteous with me, but… are you sure you won't regret this?"
"What's there to regret? Compared to this, money's more important right now."
The manager sighed. "Okay. I'll get it done as soon as I can."
"Alright," Louis said before turning to leave.
The manager moved away, but when he spotted the man standing nearby, he walked over at once. "Mr. Pearson."
Aidan stood there quietly, dressed in a plain white shirt. His hands were stuck in his pants pockets as he stared in the direction where Louis had gone. "What does he need money for?" he asked plainly.
The manager was breaking out in cold sweat as he recalled that Louis had hit Aidan before, but he could not leave Aidan's question unanswered. "His family seems to have run into some trouble."
"How much does he want?"
"150 thousand…"
Aidan snorted. He forgot how greedy that entire family was as it was always at least six figures. He said nothing, and the manager's heart was about to beat out of his chest in silence.
Eventually, the manager said, "I'll get going now if there's nothing else, Mr. Pearson."
"Go on."
Once the manager walked off, Oscar appeared from the side. "You're not going to ask what happened?"
"Not interested," Aidan retorted coolly as he walked off.
After leaving Patheon Club, Aidan received a call from a number not on his contacts list.
He frowned and answered the call, only to hear Leanna's careful voice. "Are you busy right now, Mr. Pearson?"
"Say what you want."
