Chapter 402 Please Address Me as Mrs Lawson

From the shadows, a man beckoned to a thug, who said to Joseph, “It’s 12,000.”

Joseph’s brow furrowed, ready to respond, when George interjected, “H- How did it balloon to 12,000?”

The thug’s threatening stance made Joseph step in, halting George and informing the thug, “I don’t have that much on me right now.”

The thug seemed content with Joseph’s response, sharing a look with the shadowy figure, who cautioned, “Deliver it tomorrow, or suffer the consequences.”

Joseph exhaled in relief, agreeing. After reaching an agreement, Joseph took George and headed for the exit.

Although covered in bruises from the beating, George was aware that he had to leave this place immediately.

They swiftly departed, and Joseph escorted George home.

Upon arrival, Joseph promptly contacted James, the only family member. capable of producing 12,000 at short notice. After all, he was the one in charge of their family business now.

After briefing James on George’s plight, Joseph felt drained. As he left the room, he noticed George struggling to make a call with his phone.
