Kapitel 134: Countdown

“Welcome…” the boss said in greeting before he smiled at me.

“Hello…” I said softly.

“Why are we here?” Hayden asked, cutting to the chase.

“I wanted to talk to Malissa and you’re just her driver,” the boss replied with a laugh.

He seemed to be in a good mood today. Hayden didn’t find his joke funny, but I thought that it was a good attempt. We took our seat on the long sofa opposite the boss. Hayden sat next to me.

“I told you just now that I wanted to talk to Malissa, right? So, why are you still here, Hayden?” the boss asked.

“You want me to leave?” Hayden asked in annoyance.

“Yes. Leave…” the boss spat.

The two men stared at each other down. Seriously, these two father and son just never seemed to get along at all. I wondered what these two were like when Hayden’s elder brother was around. Did they get along better as a trio than as a duo?
