The money was soon transferred into Blossom's bank account.
“Is there anything else we can do for you, Mr. Cross?” Shadow Widow asked with a smile.
“I'm supposed to meet a group of friends here,” Nathan replied.
Shadow Widow froze in confusion at first. It wasn't until she noticed the people dressed in combat gear behind Nathan that she recalled something.
“Ah, yes, I remember now. A few hours ago, a small team showed up here at Nightfire. The person leading that team told me that someone would be meeting them here. Are those your friends, Mr. Cross?”
Nathan flashed her a faint smile. “Probably. Where are they?”
“At the nightclub. Come on, I'll show you the way,” Shadow Widow replied.
On top of having a main lobby, Nightfire Underground City was also divided into many different areas.
One of those areas was a fairly huge nightclub.
The place was dimly lit and had music playing in the background while hundreds of people either drank or danced away.
Most of them were either bounty hunters or mercenaries.
Nathan and the others received quite a lot of attention when Shadow Widow led them into the nightclub. After all, it wasn't every day that they saw her being so polite to people.
“Your friends are in that private room over there, Mr. Cross. In order to avoid any misunderstandings, I'll go in and make an announcement first,” Shadow Widow told him.
Nathan nodded. “Sure.”
Shadow Widow then made her way into the private room while Nathan and the others waited outside.
Suddenly, Massimo showed up out of nowhere and called out to Nathan with a smile, “Mr. Cross?”
Nathan shot him a cold glance. “Did you need something from me?”
Massimo shook his head profusely. “No, not at all. I just wanted to apologize to you for my rude behavior earlier. I didn't realize you were this powerful!”
“You didn't really offend me, so there's no need for you to apologize,” Nathan replied with a smile.
