Chapter 790

Garrett rushed to the register to carry out his plan.

“Here is thirty grands,” he said as he pulled out a check and handed it to the cashier. “Could you please tell the lady with the child that they won a promo and everything they’re buying today is free of charge?”

The cashier shot him with a stern look and refused, “I’m sorry, I can’t accept this check. I have no guarantee that this isn’t fake.” Garrett’s eyes widened in disbelief, and he pushed the check nearer the reluctant staff’s face. “Look closely. It’s from the Harding Group. This is 100% a legitimate check, I can assure you.” Hesitantly, the cashier took the check and found no anomalies. It seemed to be genuine. However, she didn’t take her chances and remained skeptical. “Why are you doing this? The lady that you’ve pointed out looks like she’s married. You’re not trying to get between her and her husband, are you?”

Garrett couldn’t almost believe his ears. He was so angry that his face twisted into harsh lines before he burst out, “That bastard is by no means her husband! I’m her real husband! Alright?”

The cashier looked at Garrett with even more suspicion in her eyes.

Taking a deep breath, he calmed himself down and began to plead, “I’m telling the truth. I’m her husband. But the two of us fought, and she left our home with our child. She probably wouldn’t accept anything from me if I gave it to her myself, so I had no choice but to try this.”

As he finished speaking, he took out a photo of himself and Laney, showing it to the cashier.

The cashier finally believed him after seeing proof. She let out a sigh and said, “Alright. I’ll help you out.”

With a professional bodyguard’s keen intuition, Laney sensed someone following her as soon as she entered the shop. Yet, every time she glanced back, nobody seemed suspicious.
