Chapter 1354
Hearing that, Harvey gave the owner an obvious look of disbelief. "How could there be something so good in this world? And I could earn this much money? That's unbelievable!"
The owner could tell that Harvey did not believe him. He began to feel annoyed, ’Why is he not buying what I'd said yet?*
’It's true! Just a few days ago, someone had already received the money. I'm not lying to you!" the owner said to Harvey in utmost seriousness.
Harvey continued to act as though he was in disbelief, and pretended to think fora moment.
Then, he said, "If what you said is true, let me meet Ms. Jo.
"Otherwise, I won't be able to buy that. Why would money fall from the sky and land directly on my palms?" Harvey muttered.
The owner stared at Harvey while looking troubled. It seemed that Harvey had really given him a run for his money.
’You'll take the job as soon as you meet Ms. Jo?" the owner asked as he looked at Harvey sternly.
'Yes. As long as I get to meet Ms. Jo and see her in person, I'll be at ease. Otherwise, it'll feel like I'm doing something illegal!" Harvey whimpered, deliberately giving the owner a look of fear.
The owner took a deep breath and stared at Harvey for a long time. Then, he said, "Fine, since we've discussed it to such lengths, I'll try my best to let you see her.
"But I must tell you this, Ms. Jo would never agree to meet you. The only thing I can do is to bring you to her. After you've taken a single glance of her, you must leave with me immediately. I won't allow you to get me into hot soup," the owner asserted sternly.
'If you agree to do the job, I'll take you to her immediately. If not, you may forget about it," he added.
"Fine." Harvey chugged his beer down and agreed.
'Follow me.' The owner took his apron off and brought Harvey to the car outside.
The second Harvey walked out, he casually looked around and got into the owner's car. Once the engine had been ignited, they drove off into the distance.
Once Nicole noticed that Harvey was being brought away in a car by someone, she exited the shop at once and hurried to her car. Then, she proceeded to tail the car from behind.
Concurrently, Jared was in the midst of a meeting when he received a text message from one of his men. [The restaurant owner had left with the guy.]
[Get some of our men to follow them. Be sure to keep an eye on the restaurant too.]
[Understood.]
"My little brother, remember that I'm the one who initiated this meeting between you and Ms. Jo. Don't you ever tell anyone about this, or else, I won't let go of you," the owner warned Harvey as he was driving.
’Don't worry. If you really have introduced me to such a good opportunity to earn some money and turn my life around, I'd be more nothing but grateful to you. Once I get the money, don't forget to send me your account number. I'll transfer some of it to you," Harvey said, trying to build a relationship with the owner.
