Chapter 59: Mr. Lopez Is Coming by Bike
President Lawrance offered a careful and profuse apology, his generous forehead drenched in sweat.
He was terrified!
The Duke of Southern River was one of the most influential clients associated with the Commerce of City. If the funds had indeed been transferred from their account, the head office would have caught wind of it immediately.
And once that happened, his position as sub-president would be revoked without mercy.
John Lopez calmly tucked his sleek black card back into his wallet and said with a light smile, "It's all right. As long as the misunderstanding is cleared up. I never imagined a simple bank card could stir up such a commotion."
Just as he finished speaking, his phone rang. It was none other than the Duke of Southern River himself, calling to ask about the situation.
That call alone sent another wave of dread through President Lawrance and the staff. It confirmed that this unassuming young man standing before them had a background far beyond their understanding. Otherwise, how could someone as prominent as the Duke react so swiftly?
Their shirts clung to their backs with sweat.
Luckily for them, John Lopez was composed and gracious—he hadn't taken offense.
President Lawrance left, silently offering thanks to the heavens for the fortunate outcome.
Since the matter had proven to be a misunderstanding, the two plainclothes officers also took their leave.
