A moment later, he regained his senses. In a broken voice, he replied, "Mr. Ocean, I don't know what'd happened either. There's this guy who said that he would close down all our shops in ten minutes. I didn't expect him to be so powerful..."
Clenching his teeth, Jared demanded, "Clean up your own mess. If you can't get whoever it is to forgive you and I am unable to reopen my shops, I swear to God that I will personally kill you!”
Dexter's face turned white as a ghost. What else could he say?
Before anything came to mind, Jared had slammed the phone down and ended the call.
Depressed, Dexter raised his head and looked at Nathan in despair.
Other than shock, his eyes were also filled with fear.
This man can close down all the Noblewoman Beauty salons in the South within ten minutes with just a phone call.
He must really be very powerful!
Everyone looked at Nathan in astonishment.
They thought that Nathan was only boasting but did not expect him to actually deliver.
The beauty salon's staff started to panic, one by one, especially the few who had scammed Nathan's parents earlier.
Ignoring his injuries, Dexter dropped onto his knees in front of Nathan and cried out, "Mr. Cross, I'm sorry! I shouldn't have taken your parent-in-law's money. It was also wrong of me to have threatened all of you. Please have mercy on me!"
Nathan scoffed, "What happened earlier? Why are you only admitting your mistake now?"
"Anyway, can you return my mom's money now?"
Dexter replied immediately, "Yes, right away. I'll refund everything."
In a moment, the whole five million that was half cheated from Leah was returned to her card.
The card was given to her by Nathan. Although it was only used for grocery shopping, there was no limit imposed on it.
