Chapter: 675
“Five thousand is not enough. How about eighteen thousand instead?"
"Six thousand!"
"Fifteen thousand."
“Eight thousand. Ask for more, and we will take you to court."
Jeffry did the bargaining on Maggie's behalf.
Johnny eyed him for one tense moment.
“You sure have some guts. Hurry and give me the money, then!"
Johnny agreed to their terms!
Excited, Maggie shot Jeffry a look of gratitude, who gave her a reassuring one in turn.
“ALL right. In case, let's get this agreement in writing."
Jeffry made quick work of drafting a contract. Johnny's face remained cold as he signed his name on the document.
With that settled, Maggie transferred the money to Johnny's bank count.
It was finally over. Maggie allowed herself a sigh of relief.
“Thank you, Jeffry."
If he hadn't been here today, she would have certainly made a mess of things. fou're welcome, it's no big deal." Jeffry gave her a gentle smile.
“Say, Maggie, it's been a while since we've seen each other. Why don't we have a meal together and catch up?"
Maggie hesitated and considered her options. He had done her a huge favor, after all. She took a deep breath and nodded.
"ALL right, it will be my treat, then.” jo, it's my treat."
“Please. I want to thank you for all your help.”
Unable to bring himself to argue, Jeffry relented.
Meanwhile, the sun was already high up in the sky when Rosalynn rose.
She looked around to find herself alone in the room.
