Chapter 318: Corrupted Politician
He couldn’t calmly watch as the vice president stood on stage and bragged about the newborn baby in his family when he hadn’t finished all his payments he had to make on that particular baby.
The smile on the vice president immediately faltered when he recognized Xander. He’d wanted to ask his wife to bring out the newborn baby so everyone could see, but now that Xander was around, he stopped himself from making such a decision.
His wife’s smile faltered into a terrifying look when she also saw Xander because she recognized him.
"Go keep an eye on the baby and make sure no one you don’t know comes close to him," he ordered. The wife gave a brief nod to show she understood his words. She flashed the guests a quick smile before the stage.
Xander saw the wife leaving, and he couldn’t help but release a chuckle.
"That bastard only paid fifty million dollars for that baby," Xander said through gritted teeth, Julian close to him to hear his words. "He still has more to pay. I don’t even know why Bruce agreed to give him the child when he hadn’t completed his payment," he added with a long sigh, taking another sip from his glass.
"Let me guess, you became impatient and decided to gatecrash his party to ask him for your remaining money?"
Xander didn’t respond as his eyes focused on the vice president who’d already met his gaze and had become quite cautious ever since.
"Is it wrong if I want to get what’s mine?" Xander questioned back. When he saw Mr. Belbvet leaving the party, he quickly added, "I’m going to talk to him, that’s if he agrees for us to talk."
