Chapter 86

Sitting in the locker room for half a day, Garner scratched his head in irritation.

“Those bastards!” he cursed inwardly.

With a gloomy face, he walked out of the locker room and glanced at Melissa, sitting in the yard. He hesitated for long and decided to let it be.

“Garner,” Melissa called out to him first.

Garner pretended not to hear and steeled himself to leave.

“Garner, the boss is calling for you.” Someone who couldn’t read the room had reminded him.

Taking a deep breath, Garner turned and walked up to Melissa. “Boss, what do you need?”

“Overtime tonight. An extra 30 grand. What do you say?” Melissa wanted to rag Garner, determined to keep him up all night.

Garner had already been on his feet the whole night yesterday.

The other bodyguards could tell the boss was picking on Garner and felt sorry for him. “Boss, Garner hasn’t had a break for three days straight. At this rate…”

Money was no good if one was too dead to spend it.

What was the boss trying to do? How did Garner tick off the boss?

“Fine, I’ll do the overtime.” Garner’s voice remained calm, without a ripple. “I don’t need the money. Please do me a favor, boss.”

Melissa looked at Garner with interest, seeing him ask her for help.

“No money? Speak up.” Melissa was intrigued.

“My nephew’s schooling… No school dares to take him.” Garner hung his head, clenching his fists.

He wasn’t good at asking for favors. He wouldn’t have spoken up if he had another choice.

Melissa noticed that about Garner. “Your nephew is an unregistered citizen?”

Garner shook his head, replying. “No, it’s because he crossed the heiress of the FitzGerald family.”

*The FitzGerald family…” Melissa’s fingers tapped lightly on the table. “The daughter of the FitzGerald family’s mistress who climbed up the ladder? Her name is Eve, right?”

Melissa wore a look of disdain, clearly not a fan of Eve.

Garner looked clueless. He wasn’t up to speed on these high–society scandals.
