Chapter 80 Shopping
Rupert Robinson only said that Lance Manson offered bribes to the mayor, but he didn’t have any evidence. If he had, he wouldn’t have worked with me.
I gave him a phone number and asked him to call me if he has anything to tell.
I had been here for 30 minutes after Rupert kidnapped me. Lance would be suspicious if I didn’t buy anything with his card.
Before I left, Rupert Robinson said, “How would I know you wouldn’t work with him to take me down?”
I looked at Rupert and laughed at his words, “Do you have anything worth to make me take you down? At this very moment, you can only choose to trust me because no one is going to save you. Just remember that I am not helping you but myself. We have the same enemy, so you and I are allies.”
“The court didn’t give me much time, you need to be fast and help me get the money to cover up, and I will try to collect the evidence of the bribe for you.”
After I left the hotel, I ran towards the mall and I saw a shoe shop that was having a sale. Even on sale the shoes still cost ten thousand. I bought two pairs of shoes.
I can’t only buy two pairs of shoes; I needed to buy more things so that Lance Mason wouldn’t be suspicious.
I walked into a store that was selling ties. I walked in and chose a tie for Lance Mason. I was thinking what kind of colour he likes; he had a lot of ties and most of his
ties are navy blue or army green colour. I bought a pink colour tie for him and didn’t even bother to look at the price.
I realized that the tie cost 7 thousand when I went to pay at the counter. Luckily, it’s not my money.
I bought another two white shirts for him and another pair of couple watches.
Thad used up three million in this mall and my hands were full. When I walked out of the mall, I saw the driver waiting for me.
The driver came out of the car and got all the things from me. I asked him if he had been waiting for a long time. But he said no and Lance Mason made him come 30 minutes later.
Lance Mason is nice to his worker, he never treated them like a servant. Just like now, he let his driver come and fetch me 30 minutes later to prevent the driver from waiting for me too long outside because I was still in the mall shopping.
When Lance came back that night, I showed him the watch I bought and asked him if it looks good.
He held my hands up and nodded, “Looks good on you.”
I didn’t quite get it, “What?”
