Chapter 125 Luella Aldridge

By now, it was already 5:30 PM. and most banks had long since closed.

Only the Harmonfield branch of SunEast Development Bank remained open, with the staff in position, waiting for Robin's massive 3.8 billion cash delivery to arrive for processing.

Yet, the staff-unhappy about the unexpected overtime were growing impatient.

"It's past closing time," one muttered, "Is he really bringing in 3.8 billion cash?"

"Who knows another replied. He's just sitting there, not moving."

"Do you really believe it? That's 3.8 billion cash! That's a ridiculous amount," a third employee scoffed. "Even Brookhaven's wealthiest man, Carson, couldn't pull that together so quickly."

"Did you notice.how young he looks?" added someone else. "Does he seem like a guy who could bring that kind of cash?"

"Why did Mr. Stone have us work late for this? Surely we could've refused such an outrageous request," someone complained.

"No, we couldn't. Big transactions require special VIP treatment. Mr. Stone has no choice.

"If that guy complains, we'll all be in trouble," added another, sighing.

"Those people just know how to complain. What if he doesn't come through tonight?"

"I heard he swore to Mr. Stone-if he couldn't deliver the money, he'd apologize to each of us. But honestly, what good would that even do?"

"I have important things to do tonight. I planned to meet my former classmates at the bar, but now I can't go because of this.

"It's so boring that I can't do anything. It's annoying!"

The grumbles continued, each voice tinged with annoyance as the staff ate the fancy dinners the bank had provided to ease the overtime.

Still, their resentment simmered as they eyed Robin in the lobby.

Meanwhile, Robin had been on calls with Shirley, Daphine, and Rygar, as well as Carson, who reassured him that dinner and money were on their way.

Robin had initially planned to call in a favor from Old Fred's wives to arrange for an airlift of cash. But with more than enough already accounted for, he decided it was unnecessary.

Just then, his phone buzzed with a WhatsApp message from Luella Aldridge, granddaughter of Felix Aldridge, head of the Aldridge family. Robin raised an eyebrow as he read her message. "Robin, I'm in Draconia, Just learned you're in Harmofield. I'm here on business and inspecting the new.
