Chapter 73: Fulfilling the Promise

After separating from Howard, Kaiden held the thin check in his hand and walked back to the company with graceful steps.

A rhythmic whistle accompanied by a slightly arrogant pace at this moment attracted the eyes of passersby from time to time.

Kaiden glanced at his watch on the way back to the company. Only then did he realize that it only took him an hour to get back. If it was not for the delay on the way back and forth, this matter would have been settled in half an hour.
Alexandra was the same. The company had such a muddle-headed debt, yet he did not even know to ask for his help. If it had not been for that stupid big guy digging up this debt, it would have really become an old debt.

After returning to the company, Kaiden directly took the check and went to Charles’ office. He really wanted to see that man’s expression after being slapped in the face. It would be very interesting.

“Why didn’t you knock on the office door when you came in?”

The office door was suddenly pushed open. Charles, who was on the phone, was about to curse when he looked up. It was actually Kaiden? He instantly took back the swear words that he was about to blurt out. After all, he had not forgotten the beating last night, so he could only silently put his phone
aside.

It had already been an hour. Why was this guy still not going out to collect the bill?

Could it be that he really thought that an afternoon was a long time and that collecting the debt was an easy task?

He really did not know the immensity of Heaven and earth.

Charles laughed mercilessly in his heart, but he did not show it on his face. He was just waiting to see how arrogant he would be when he was unable to complete this task?

Even if he had that group of hooligans, he would not have the authority to set up the company’s matters.

“Do you really need to knock on the door to enter your office? Do you really think you are the leader?”

Did this guy really think that he would become the boss of the company just because he was the team leader of team six?

Kaiden rolled his eyes without hesitation. There was no one else here, so there was no need for him to hide his facial expression.

“Okay, open your eyes wide and look at it carefully. Don’t miss any of the words on it. Otherwise, you won’t be willing to admit it when the time comes.”

Throwing the thin check in front of Charles, Kaiden took a step forward with his long legs, hooked it over the chair, and sat down. His movements were smooth.

Charles, who was originally arrogant, was stunned when he saw a thin piece of paper suddenly appear in front of him.

This is…a check?

He picked up the check that flew onto the table with a trembling hand. Looking at the long string of zeros on it, from left to right, from right to left, he counted it five times. Charles was sure that this check was absolutely real, and it was not a single cent off.
He had actually taken back this sum of money from his opponent’s company. How did he do it?

After all, that company had the backing of the three big gangs!

After the shock, on the contrary, joy fell from the sky. If this sum of money had entered his pocket, no one in the company would know about it, and no one would suspect it!

“Twill verify the authenticity of this check later. You go back to your office first. I will call you later.”

Pretending to be calm, he put the check aside. Charles continued to fiddle with the computer as if he did not want to say anything more.

Kaiden looked at his pretentious look and wanted to see what he was up to, so he immediately left his office.

Only after he left did Charles pick up his phone again.

Returning to his office, he finally had a good rest. The strength that he had exerted just now was not in vain. His arm was still sore.

“How’s the document processing going?”

“I’s almost done. It’s already finishing up.”

“It’s pretty good…”

Kaiden, who had nothing to do in his office, was relaxing his arm while chatting with Yasmine.

Two hours later, Charles asked his staff to inform Kaiden to go over.

Under Yasmine’s gaze, Kaiden ran to Charles’ office.

“How is it? Is this check okay?”

Kaiden went straight to the point, not giving him a chance to beat around the bush.

Although he was particularly curious about what game he was playing.

“Hehe, of course this check is real. How could it be fake?”

Charles changed his expression and looked at Kaiden with a gratified expression. “You did very well this time. I will remember your contributions and earn back such a sum of money for the company. It is worthy of praise.”
“And then?”

“And then there is no ‘and then’!”

Charles spread his hands and his fake smile was like that of an old fox.

He still wanted after that, but he was really stupid. The check was already in his hands, yet he still wanted it after that?

Charles mocked him mercilessly in his heart.

Now, he was able to play along with him here. It was already giving him the greatest face on account of him taking back the check. He still wanted after that? Let’s wait for him to save his own life first. Did he think that he would have a good ending after offending the three big gangs?
Pointing at the office door, he made a gesture of invitation. “I’m going to work now. As my team member, are you going to disturb the team leader’s work?”

Kaiden finally understood. It turned out that this guy was planning to turn hostile and not acknowledge him. However, did he think that this trick would work on him? Or was it that the blow yesterday was too light?
Did he really think that the check would be unreasonable in his hands?

Then his thoughts were really too simple, even purer than a piece of paper.

“Tremember when I accepted this mission, a certain someone swore that as long as I got back this debt, he would scram from the company. Now that the check has been presented in front of him openly, but that person seems to be going back on his word?”
He leaned forward and smiled with a hidden knife. “Do you want me to use the recording on my phone to help him remember?”

He did not want the so-called verbal credit. When he came to this company, his original intention was only to protect Alexandra. As for the so-called credit, he did not need it to be in the limelight.

Moreover, right now, he only wanted this annoying guy to fulfill his promise.

“What recording? Why don’t I know? What did I promise?”

Charles still asked the obvious question, refusing to admit it even if he died.

What recording? Maybe he was deliberately trying to trick him into talking. He did not even touch his phone when he assigned the task this morning. Now, a recording suddenly appeared. Who would believe it!
Seeing that he was still a dead pig, Kaiden was not in a hurry. Instead, he slowly took out the phone in his pocket and opened the recording app to play Charles’ arrogant words this morning.

“If you can get back this debt, I, Charles, will give you a guarantee today that I will leave the company!”

The words were clearly enunciated and the voice was full of energy. The guarantee with his name and surname made Charles want to deny it, but he had no reason to deny it..
