Chapter 689
The group of four sat by the window.
It seemed that the two blonde–haired young men rarely came to dine in at the restaurant. They raised the menu up and ordered in a frenzy. The four of them soon ordered a table full of dishes.
Money was of the least concern to Flint. He said casually, “How are we going to be content with only this? Let‘s order a few bottles of your favorite alcohol.”
The two men immediately ordered a few bottles of expensive whiskey.
The table was full of specialties in this area, but Adina was not interested at all.
She sat at the dining table with an indifferent smile. “Coul, have you always lived here?”
The young man named Coul ate some meat while he said, “I‘m an illegal immigrant, so I have no other choice but to live here. I used to be able to collect some protection fees to live a life, but now...”
When Coul spoke of that, he paused for a while. It was only after he looked around with his small eyes that he lowered his voice and said, “Since the new leader took office, we are no longer allowed to collect protection fees. We can‘t earn any extra money, and we are almost starving to death. Morton, do you know how long I haven‘t drunk any alcohol? I really miss this taste so much.”
Adina tapped on the table with her fingers and indifferently asked, “If Black Party wouldn‘t give you a way to live, can‘t you join other organizations?”
“Forget about it.” Another young man lowered his head and gloomily said, “As soon as Terry North took office, he first chased out all other organizations of Hestia Border. This place is currently under Terry North‘s management.”
“A fucking Astroysian is managing us. Damn it!” Coul slammed the table and cursed. “I freaking hate Astroysians the most, but I‘m under his control that I have no way to live…”
Flint cleared his throat.
Coul immediately said, “Flint, you‘re nothing like those Astroysians. You‘re our best partner. As long as you say a word, my buddies and I will do everything for you.”
