Chapter 93
As a matter of fact, after Randal left, Harry, Master Crestfall, and the others wanted to speak to Anthony, but they dared not approach him due to his overwhelming aura.
They stood on the spot and listened to the conversation from afar. They were able to make out the words ‘debt’ and ‘ gratitude’ from the conversation between Suletta and Andrius. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
What could those words possibly mean?
Could the Hendersons owe Andrius a debt of gratitude?
Harry mustered up enough courage and went up to them. He cautiously asked, “Ms. Henderson, I wonder what you mean when you refer to ‘debt’ and ‘gratitude”?”
Suletta glanced at Harry but did not take him seriously.
However, when she noticed that the Crestfalls were looking at her with a longing gaze, her eyes fluttered and she came up with a way to mess with Andrius.
She said, “A few days ago, Andrius Moonshade saved my grandfather.”
The words shocked everyone in the Crestfalls, and their gaze turned eager. After all, it was a great opportunity for the family.
Then, Suletta switched her tone and ridiculed, “But when we offered him a reward of five billion, he rejected it. He said that it’s his duty to save people since it’s a doctor’s responsibility… Tsk, tsk, tsk.”
She clicked her tongue loudly.
Everyone could listen to her contempt between the lines. They were forced to look at Andrius differently.
How foolish of him! He was so stupid that he rejected a five- billion-dollar reward!
“Actually…” Suletta grinned in disdain, “He rejected the reward because he knew who we are and how big our business chain is, so he’s trying to blackmail my grandfather for a larger reward. BUT we rescued you all from the Hanshus and also saved Andrius from the trouble. Now, we are even.”
She observed the reaction of the Crestfalls as she explained. As expected, their expressions switched from excitement to disappointment. They were probably disappointed in Andrius, or even resented him for his stupidity.
Suletta was delighted as if she won a battle.
If Andrius was that pretentious, he could continue to play the pretentious game with the Crestfalls.
Anthony returned to the car with the bodyguards’ help.
After Suletta was done with the explanation, she, too, returned to the car with her heels clacking.
“Goodbye, Master Henderson!”
“Goodbye, Ms. Henderson!”
The Crestfalls bowed and sent them off respectfully.
What they got in response was the rumble of the car engine.
Harry, Master Crestfall, and the others watched the motorcade disappear beyond their sight before they regained their senses. They then switched their attention back to Andrius
and criticized him for his stupidity.
“Luna, your husband is really a weirdo.” Dick sneered. “He doesn’t want the five billion and even spouted about a doctor’s duty. Pfft, he’s trying to pay for his meal with a doctor’s duty.”
“The people from the mountains are really strange. What an epiphany.”
Luna felt bad as well.
Five billion was lost just like that.
If she could get a hold of the money, other than proceeding with the Valiant Institute’s project with ease, she could also expand the company even further.
Now, everything was too late.
She glared at Andrius and did not even bother to berate him.
“Five billion!” George sighed and looked at Andrius in disappointment. “If he had taken the money, our family could have used the money to reach new heights!”
