Go Back and I Rule There novel Chapter 149

If the man's expression had been cold before, a hint of a smile now touched his lips.

"He won't." The mogul of Prax, Mr. Turner, a man often described as an unattainable prize, found the chill in his eyes melting away because of that single sentence. "Smith, pay her."

Smith fumbled for a moment before quickly pulling out his bank card.

"Be generous," Warner's voice was soft, but it couldn't hide the commanding presence he'd cultivated over years of being in power.

Rosalind glanced at him, then at the ever-obedient Smith. "A friend?"

Warner didn't hide it. "A colleague from a branch office."

"Yes! A colleague!" Smith straightened his posture.

Rosalind didn't seem to care. "Alright. The account details are on that sheet of paper."

Smith shifted his gaze slightly to the side. "How much should I transfer?"

"You ask your friend for advice on how much to pay for medical treatment?" Rosalind's smile was playful.

Smith immediately transferred ten thousand dollars. That shouldn't be too much, nor too little.

He had carefully considered the amount, keeping it within the range of a typical wellness treatment package.

When Rosalind heard the notification of the payment, she raised an eyebrow. "You can bring more friends like this in the future."

Despite her words, Rosalind refunded nine thousand nine hundred dollars, then tapped her finger on the promotional blackboard. "The adjustment is one hundred."

Smith was stunned once again. "One hundred?!"

This was completely foreign to him. Back home, nothing was ever this cheap!

"Oh, my heavens!" Smith kept exclaiming.

Grandma Megan, who had just returned after seeing off the neighbors, thought something was wrong. "Rosalind, is he in pain after the adjustment? That shouldn't be."

During his last business inspection, even Princess Seraphina had expressed her admiration for him.

His boss had been a gentleman, of course, declining her gracefully by saying he already had a girlfriend.

Until now, Smith had always assumed that was just an excuse. If his boss really had a girlfriend, wouldn't Mr. Turner Sr. know about it?

But now!

Smith looked from Warner to Rosalind and back again. If this news got out, it would cause an explosion!

Rosalind, however, didn't seem to care what Smith thought of their relationship. She just smiled faintly. "Grandma, what are you going to talk to him about? If you have any questions, you can ask me."

"Ask you? Would you tell me the truth?" Megan was sharp. "Besides, he's come to our home. Shouldn't he have a talk with Grandma first?"

Warner reached out and pulled Rosalind back, holding her half-embraced in his arms as if he were truly her boyfriend. His voice was deep and husky with a smile. "I should."
