Across the road.
Aliyah stood at the cafe door, her hand raised to grip the door handle, but never hesitated to push the door open.
Charles behind him couldn't wait, "What are you doing, didn't you say you'd pay me in the cafe and now you're sorry?"
"Cousin," Aliyah spoke obscurely and arduously, "I've given you a lot over the years you've been in the Grant family ......"
"So just give me a little more ah, anyway, have given so much, the end of your heartache?" Charles's mouth instantly became fierce, "Give this time, we are clear."
Two clear?
The smile on Aliyah's lips became more and more bitter, finally lowering her eyes to Charles and questioning, "Are you sure you really won't bother me again?"
"Of course!" Charles laughed with a maniacal twist, "You're my only cousin, you're the only one left in the whole Ye family and I are dependent on each other, how can I bear to really push you into the fire?"
After a pause, he added, "After all, if Sebastian knew the truth about the fire, he would definitely break with you, you only have one son, how can you live without him?"
The more he said, the more Charles' voice was lowered, like a ghost.
He was compelling, enticing Aliyah to give him the money.
In fact, Aliyah did falter.
She dreaded to imagine what Sebastian would do to her if he ever found out the truth about the fire.
"Take this money and get the hell out of here, and don't even go back to Willisto in the future." Aliyah gritted her teeth and pulled out several bank cards from her bag.
This was all prepared according to Charles' request.
The bank cards are signed by Charles, so that even if the money is checked later, it is not possible to get it back.
