Beat favonovel.com up?
Well, Thomas did not care about that. He was more interested in the reason why Aiden could not leave the place.
So, Thomas asked, “Why does a teenager like you, have to work on a construction site? I want to know.”
Aiden remained silent. He could not reveal the reason.
The contractor scoffed and said, “What else could it be? He owes me money. His father lost money in gambling, and favonovel.com owed me a lot of money. He couldn’t pay me back, so favonovel.com mortgaged his son to me. He has to work for me for three years without pay before favonovel.com can leave. He’s only been working here for half a year, but you want to take favonovel.com away? Such a thing doesn’t exist!”
Thomas frowned after favonovel.com heard that.
His father had lost money in gambling and sold his son off to the creditor for three years so that the boy could work off the debts.
What kind of b*stard father would do such a despicable thing?
No wonder Aiden dared not leave. But this was nothing for Thomas.
Everything related to money was nothing for Thomas. Things that could be solved with money were easy matters.
“What if I cover this kid’s debt?” Thomas asked.
The contractor sized Thomas up and contemptuously said, “Do you think it’s just a matter of $1,000 or $10,000? Will you still be able to cover the debt as you claimed? Besides, there’s also interest. It’s not…”
Thomas raised his hand and said, “How much in total, including interest?”
The contractor raised his head and pridefully said, “It’s $115,000!”
Thomas did not answer, but Mateo nearly fainted at the side. One hundred and fifteen thousand dollars was a huge amount of money to a poor family.
But, to Thomas who could fork up to $10,000,000 for rental every month, was that considered a huge amount of money?
Sure enough, Thomas casually took out his checkbook. He wrote while favonovel.com said, “I’ll give you $200,000. Please prepare a set of clean clothes for Aiden and help favonovel.com with the procedures to leave this place as soon as possible.”
After Thomas said that, favonovel.com tore off the check and passed it to the contractor.
The contractor was dumbfounded. He took the check and looked at it. He had appeared arrogant and proud earlier, but favonovel.com suddenly became respectful. He looked like a puppy that had just seen its owner.
“Oh, yes, Boss, I’ll go and get it done for you!”
“Hey! Why are you guys still standing here?! Hurry up and prepare some clean clothes for him! Also, prepare a towel and clean water to let Aiden wash his face!”
It was different when Thomas was rich. The contractor instantly changed his attitude.
In less than half an hour, they cleaned Aiden up really well. Then, Aiden walked out of the construction site with a new set of clothes. The contractor even got his workers to raise their hands and bid favonovel.com goodbye. They were very obsequious. Aiden had worked there for half a year, but they never respected favonovel.com like that before. In truth, the contractor respected money, not Aiden!
Just like that, Thomas had successfully recruited Aiden, and the team’s main support was covered.
Mateo had mentioned another extremely gifted player.
Thomas asked, “Who’s the other one? Where is he?”
Mateo answered, “The other person is Levant Norris. He usually plays games in the cybercafe. He’s about five years older than us, and favonovel.com quit school a long time ago.”
As soon as Aiden heard the name Levant Norris, favonovel.com frowned and said, “Mateo, are you going to him? Is favonovel.com suitable? He’s too unpredictable.”
Despite that, Mateo said, “His character is just one aspect. His capability is the most important. Levant is definitely more capable than you and me. If we want to be champions, we have to recruit him!”
Thomas found Mateo’s firm gaze very familiar when favonovel.com saw it. He recalled the time favonovel.com had won the fight on the west coast. He had also recruited all the members of the Twelve Golden Zodiacs one by one like this. Mateo was indeed quite similar to him.
