Chapter 191: Leave Once It’s Done
Yusuf Zuck was polite, but his words were tantamount to a gentle rejection. You, Daisy Wilkinson, think thirty million will make me risk my life? Even when Mia promised several billion, he hadn’t agreed, so Yusuf’s politeness was tinged with a hint of sarcasm.
He was telling Daisy that neither life nor friendship could be measured in money. He could refuse payment to save Mia’s life because Mia was his friend, not because Mia was wealthy.
However, Yusuf’s gentle rejection seemed to have no embarrassing effect on Daisy; she didn’t seem to catch the sarcasm and simply smiled faintly, "It seems Mr. Zuck is no longer interested in this, but I still must thank Mr. Zuck. My brother-in-law and I were almost scared to death, so if Mr. Zuck has any requests, feel free to mention them. Of course, we have no other intentions. We hope to become business partners or friends with Mr. Zuck, and we also hope Mr. Zuck and Mia’s friendship will last!" This woman was sophisticated in her speech, flawless in her conduct, and she had also realized that Yusuf was capable and resourceful—a man better to befriend than to offend!
"I have no requests, nor do I need any help," Yusuf immediately shook his head. If he made a request, then all his talk of friendship would be nonsense.
A man’s spit is his bond—how could he go back on his word?
"In that case, I won’t disturb Mr. Zuck any longer. If Mr. Zuck ever goes to Hong Kong, please let me know. I’ll treat you to a meal, and..." Daisy began to stand up while speaking, "From now on, Mia’s safety is my responsibility. She will rest tonight, and we will leave Jakarta tomorrow morning."
"Oh!" Yusuf suddenly realized that this woman had come to take Mia away. Now, she didn’t trust Mia with anyone else.
"Alright, tell Mia to be careful in the future," Yusuf nodded.
"Thank you, Mr. Zuck, for your assistance. Thank you," Daisy gave Yusuf a slight bow and then turned to leave.
Yusuf politely escorted her to the door. When he opened it, he saw four or five men and women, bristling with murderous intent, standing in the hallway. Daisy had brought these people, each looking like a hitman.
