Chapter 81 Misunderstanding Resolved
Osmond, the South River King, was yelling at the top of his lungs on the other end of the call. Judging from how rapidly he spoke such that he did not even take a single breath, it was evident how furious he
was.
Derek was dumbfounded.
Looks like the South River King has really given that black card to Emrys!
What was scarier was that he could hear the trembles in Osmond’s voice.
Osmond’s the mighty South River King! Who exactly is Mr. Lund? How can he terrify the South River King to that extent? Osmond even said that the Chanaea Chamber of Commerce would meet its demise if we offended Mr. Lund. Is that guy truly so powerful?

Regardless of whether Osmond was exaggerating, Derek knew that Emrys was not someone whom he could easily offend.
“Mr… Mr. Lund, this is a misunderstanding. Please don’t be angry! I’ll apologize to you now,” said Derek carefully, his fat forehead dotted with sweat.
He was terrified.
After all, Osmond was an important client of the Chanaea Chamber of Commerce. If he transferred all his funds out, the headquarters would definitely find out.
By then, Derek would be stripped of his title as the branch chairman.
Emrys kept the black card and assured him, “It’s fine. All’s good now that the misunderstanding has been resolved. I didn’t expect a black card to create such a huge commotion among you all.”
After he finished speaking, a call from Osmond came. Evidently, he wanted to ask about the situation on Emry’s side.
The call made Derek even more certain that this ordinary–looking young man in front of him actually came from a terrifyingly powerful background. Otherwise, Osmond would not have called him immediately.
The back of Derek’s shirt was already drenched in sweat.
Luckily, Emrys had a good temper and did not hold a grudge against them, allowing Derek to leave gratefully.
When the two policemen saw that it was a misunderstanding, they left as well.
Meanwhile, the couple at the bicycle shop pleaded in fear, “Mr. Lund, we didn’t do it on purpose either. Please forgive us!”
Although losing over one million was an unfortunate incident, both of them felt more fear than a sense of pity.
