As she spoke, Yolanda waved the check in front of Edgar's eyes. "This is the payment he gave me."
"What?" Edgar's entire body trembled as he suddenly realized something.
"You're Yolanda… Ms. Henderson? You're Ms. Henderson?"
Once he pieced it together, Edgar understood why Yolanda had a check from Blake and why she wasn't scared when she heard he was from Doxcon Group.
He was just a low-level lackey and not acquainted with Blake. However, his superior's boss was a trusted confidant of Blake, and many of his acquaintances were Blake's bodyguards.
Therefore, he was aware of recent events. Now, looking at Yolanda, his fear deepened.
He quickly bowed deeply to Yolanda, his posture extremely humble as he spoke, "Ms. Henderson, I was wrong. Please forgive me! I was mistaken."
He was genuinely terrified that Yolanda might call Blake in anger.
Samson snapped out of his daze and looked at Edgar in confusion.
"Edgar? What's wrong with you? Why are you apologizing to her? Even though her family is wealthy, they're just ordinary businesspeople. They don't compare to Doxcon Group. Even her father has to bow to Mr. Rowse's influence."
Smack!
Edgar slapped Samson hard across the face, sending him sprawling to the ground.
Samson was stunned. He held his face and looked utterly bewildered.
He wondered what he had done wrong.
"Who gave you the nerve to speak to Ms. Henderson like that? Apologize to her immediately!"
"Edgar… She's not Ms. Henderson. She's just a rich young lady who's been in the juvenile detention center. She's useless…" Samson protested stubbornly.
