Amanda bent down and glanced at that place. It did resemble a private mansion.
“Follow me closely.” It was Casimir’s first time here, and he wasn’t that confident about his actions now. After all, he was in the dark about how the other party was like.
He was just able to find out a little information about the man in there, which was his frequent appearance here.
Amanda nodded.
She wasn’t a fool, and she wouldn’t force herself to do something which was out of her control. She tried her best to diminish her own presence.
Casimir went forward to knock on the door.
After some time, the door opened and revealed a man with a scar on his face. There was a cigar dangling from his lips, and upon seeing the visitors, he blew out a foamy white smoke, “Who are you looking for?”
“Your boss,” Casimir replied.
The man with the scar studied him briefly and realized that there was another person behind him. He jerked his eyes in that direction, “There’s a lass with you?”
Casimir put himself in front of Amanda and repeated, “We want to see your boss.”
“Does our boss know you?” The man sucked at the cigar hard, “How were you able to find us here?”
Casimir was at a loss for words. He couldn’t come out and say that she was investigating them, could he?”
That certainly wouldn’t work.
She would arouse their suspicion and made them think that the two of them were here with some malicious intent. From this man’s battered and weathered look, he must be one of those reckless people who could do scary things.
“We are Lindsay’s friend. It was here who introduced this place to us.” Amanda suddenly came out and said.
That day, she spotted Lindsay and that man engaging in business dealing. She surmised that he must be doing that illegal ordeal as his job.
Lindsay didn’t just meet them only once, so they must know her.
As expected, upon hearing Lindsay’s name being brought up, the man with the scar simply asked, “You’re introduced by Lindsay?”
“Yes, and we have a business proposal to negotiate with your boss,” Amanda said.
