The Deadly Assassin Robin Novel

Chapter 125 Luella Aldridge By now , it was already , and most banks had long since closed , +10 Free Cons Only the Harmonfield branch of SunEast Development Bank remained open , with the staff in position .

waiting for Robins massive 8 billion cash delivery to arrive for processing .

Yet , the staff unhappy about the unexpected overtime were growing impatient .

Its past closing time , one muttered , Is he really bringing in 3.8 billion cash ? Who knows , another replied .

Hes just sitting there , not moving Do you really believe it ? Thats 1.8 billion cash! Thats ridiculous amount , a third employee scoffed .

Even Brookhavens wealthiest man , Carson , couldnt pull that together so quickly Did you notice how young he looks ? added someone else .

Does he seem like a guy who could bring that kind of cash ? Why did Mr.

Stone have us work late for this ? Surely we couldve refused such an outrageous request .

someone complained .

No , we couldnt .

Big transactions require special VIP treatment .

Mr.

Stone has no choice .

If that guy complains , well all be in trouble , added another , sighing .

Those people just know how to complain .

What if he doesnt come through tonight ? I heard he swore to Mr.

Stone if he couldnt deliver the money , hed apologize to each of us .

But ely , what good would that even do ? I have important things to do tonight .

I planned to meet my former classmates at the bar , but now I cant go because of this .

Its so boring that I cant do anything .

Its annoying ! The grumbles continued , each voice tinged with annoyance as the staff ate the fancy dinners the bank had provided to ease the overtime .

Still , their resentment simmered as they eyed Robin in the lobby .

Meanwhile , Robin had been on calls with Shirley , Daphine , and Rygar , as well as Carson , who reassured him that dinner and money were on their way .

Robin had initially planned to call in a favor from Old Freds wives to arrange for an airlift of cash .

But with more than enough already accounted for , he decided it was unnecessary .

Just then , his phone buzzed with a WhatsApp message from Luella Aldridge , granddaughter of Felix Aldridge , head of the Aldridge family .

Robin raised an eyebrow as he read her message .

Robin , Im in Draconia .

Just learned youre in Harmonfield .

Im here on business and inspecting the new 1/4 ON 4 Chapter 125 Luella Aldridge contract between SunEast Bank and our Aurientia Affs Department .

Send your location 1 can be there in 30 minutes He couldnt believe the coincidence .

Three years ago , during a covert mission , Robin had sayed both Felix and Luella from Fricana mercenaries , making him one of the most respected individuals in the Aldridges .

Even foreign dignitaries didnt enjoy such a status with the Aldridges .

Still , he wondered how she had known he was here no doubt Old Freds third wife had leaked the information , likely in hopes of using the Aldridge familys network to help launch her cosmetics business .

Hed have words for her when he got back .

Robin knew that even if he didnt tell Luella his location , she could still find him in seconds with the vast information network of the Aldridges .

He had no choice but to send his location to her .

A new thought struck him as he noticed her mention of the SunEast Bank contract .

Perhaps the fate of SuprEast was sealed after all .

Around this time , Layla , head of the Bank Credit Department , received a call from her husband , Jett .

Layla , are you still at work ? You were supposed to come home early .

Tm headed to the airport to pick up Leonardo , so Ill pick you up in front of the bank so we can head to dinner together .

Oh , by the way whats going on over there that youre working overtime ? It seems like youve never had to work overtime since joining the bank .

Layla glanced irritably at Robin sitting in the lobby .

Just thinking about it annoys me ! Today , a guy walked in saying he wanted to repay a loan with 3.8 billion in cash .

What ? 3.8 billion in cash ? Thats ridiculous ! Who even requires that much cash ? Jett exclaimed , surprised .

And could he even gather that much on such short notice ? Layla let out a sarcastic laugh .

He claims its to pay back the loan for Infinity Tower in Southvale .

Infinity Tower ? Jett chuckled , amused .

Has he lost his mind ? In this market , who would even consider buying Infinity Tower in Southvale ? Infinity Tower is practically worthless now , yet that guy is still willing to repay 3.8 billion for Jonah ? He must be crazy ! He then asked , How much longer do you have to work overtime ? Layla sighed .

We havent seen a single cent yet , but we have to wait here .

Robin demanded a VIP repayment channel and even threatened to complain about us if we didnt cooperate ! He said hed go as far as the Banking Regulatory Commission if he had to .

Its difficult for us to make a 2/4 Chapter 125 Luella Aldridge living .

We cant turn him down ! So , you cant leave until he brings the cash Jett asked annoyed .

Exactly ! And even if the money arrives , well be here until midnight counting it .

Just go pick up Leonardo and have dinner with him , then meet me later for some tea I dont think Robin will be able to get the money before midnight .

After hanging up .

Layla approached Robin directly My husbands on his way to pick up his old friend Leonardo , she said , glancing at Robin .

Hes the vice general manager of the Aldridges Aurientia Affairs Department , and the Aldridges are among the top five tycoons .

You wouldnt want to cross them Robin cut her off .

I dont care who he is .

Go impress him yourself if you want , but dont waste your breath trying to brag to me .

Laylas face turned red with anger .

You should at least show some respect ! How dare you not appreciate- are you even going to pay back the money ? Without even looking her way , Robin replied dismissively .

Ask your boss .

Im not here to chat .

Layla was nearly fuming .

As the head of SunEast Banks Credit Department , and with her husband serving as an assistant to the deputy mayor , she wasnt used to being treated this way ! She pointed at Robin in frustration and snapped , You Are you avoiding a face to face conversation with me because Im pretty ? out mind ? Do you even realize your age ? At this point , pretty Robin didnt even look up .

Are you fun doesnt quite suit you .

His calm remark drew a few stifled laughs from the young female staff nearby .

Layla was pissed off , her whole body trembling in anger .

You … 1 … Her speech faltered as she struggled to express her outrage .

Meanwhile , Jonah chuckled .

Fuming , she stormed into the Sales Departments office to find Dominic .

Mr.

Stone .

Im furious ! Just ignore that guy ! How can anyone believe a word that guy says ? If he doesnt transfer the 3.8 billion today- Alright , enough , Dominic cut her off with a weary sigh .

At that moment , his phone rang .

After glancing at the caller ID , he gestured for silence .

Its a call from Mr.

Barker at headquarters .

Dominic quickly straightened and answered , Hello , Mr.

Barker .

What can I do for you ? On the other end , Sebastian Barkers voice was serious , Dominic .

I just saw that our SunEast Bank Harmonfield branch is all over the news .

What exactly is going on there ? 3 / 08:54 Tue , Nov 19 24753 Chapter 125 Luella Aldridge Dominie felt a chill run through him .

We were just handling a typical loan repayment .

I have no idea how it became a trending topic .

Nonsense ! Sebastian snapped .

As I understand it .

Ms.

Shirley Dunn from the Dunns approached you this afternoon regarding Infinity Towers loan repayment .

She gave her word as a guarantee ! Why did you shut down the repayment channel carly ? Not waiting for a response , Sebastian continued .

Ignoring Ms.

Dunns assurance and taking it upon yourself to proceed with foreclosing Infinity Tower was completely out of line ! Were you following personal biases , or did you take a bribe to make such an irresponsible decision ? Sweat formed on Dominics brow .

He realized that he had acted impulsively .

But now that things had escalated , he couldnt simply admit that his hasty decision was based on an incomplete understanding of the Dunns position and his misguided trust in Howard .

Struggling for words , he explained , Mr.

Barker , Ms.

Dunn did call to discuss a possible guarantee for the loan on Infinity Tower , but she was vague and noncommittal .

With Southvales land being such a risky asset , I was concerned that if she forgot her commitment , wed be in trouble .
