After seeing Shawn drive away, Jonas simply chatted with Coralie for a few moments before doing the same.
He had an appointment with a very important guest that day.
When he arrived at the restaurant, his guest was already there. Judging from his attire, Jonas was sure that he was someone who could be easily bribed.
The uneasiness in Grant's gaze was palpable. After all, he was in a high-end restaurant and did not even have the next month's rent in his pocket.
He had no idea who the person who made an appointment with him was, but since the person mentioned he would help him, he figured it was worth a shot.
After all, the creditors had begun pressing him repeatedly after learning that he could not attend his daughter's wedding and that he had not formed an in-law relationship with the Farwell family.
Some economic crime police officers even came to him and urged him to find a way to pay off his debt. Otherwise, he would have to go to prison again.
Grant froze when he saw Jonas before he hurriedly stood up with a big smile on his face. “Hello, hello. I'm Grant Jarvis, and you are...”
“Hello, Mr. Jarvis. My name is Jonas Crawford, and I am someone who can help you. Have a seat.” Jonas was all smiles, feeling more confident when he saw the other man's awkwardness.
Having already thoroughly investigated Grant's situation, he knew that as a father who was not recognized by his daughter and an indigent man covered in debts, the latter would undoubtedly cooperate with him if given the slightest benefit.
Hence, as soon as he sat down, he took out a check and a pen and quickly wrote an amount on it.
Grant stuck his head out and wished he could extend his neck a few more centimeters to see how much money was written on it.
After the five were a line of zeros.
