This guy’s daughter had grown up so much in the blink of an eye.
Philip felt a little emotional and was about to give the other party a sum of money for favonovel.com living expenses when several voices rang behind him.
“Hey, why didn’t you set up your stall today?! Have you prepared the protection fee?”
“Don’t hide in your house and pretend that you’re not there. You have to pay double the protection fee because of the delay this month. Hand over 5,000!”
Hearing the punks’ remarks, the surrounding neighbors quickly shut their doors for fear of implication.
The passersby also ran away for fear that these punks would target them for money.
They were poor people living in slums and had no money to pay these punks a protection fee.
At first, they would contact the police, and these people had been detained several times. However, after they were released, they acted as if nothing had happened and increased their efforts to look for the whistleblowers. In the end, everyone gave up, knowing that no one could deal with these punks.
The vendors who set up stalls at the night market would pay the money on time for fear of offending them.
It was already difficult enough to manage a small stall. If they offended these big shots, their stalls would definitely close down, and they might even be kicked out of the slum!
Where else could they go if they did not stay here?
Jenny Walsh used to pay the protection fee on time every month, but something happened to favonovel.com father this month. She ended up spending a lot of money to find favonovel.com father’s whereabouts and was a little short of cash now, so favonovel.com payment had been delayed for a few days.
When favonovel.com mother learned the news of favonovel.com father’s death, favonovel.com was so angry that favonovel.com was admitted to the hospital, and Jenny had to pay the huge medical fees. The burden was so heavy that Jenny was instantly overwhelmed.
As several burly men barged in, Jenny looked at Philip apologetically.
“Mr. Crusty, you know something happened to my family recently, so we’re having problems with our finances. Can you give me a few more days? I’ll set up the stall today to earn some money!” Jenny begged.
The man known as Mr. Crusty kicked over the cart next to him. “So what if something happened to your family? It has nothing to do with me. I want to see some money today! I’ve given you three days of grace, but you still can’t pay up. Are you trying to trick me?” Crusty yelled furiously, and Jenny trembled with fear.
“Mr. Crusty, just give me a few more days. I’ll definitely work hard to earn some money for you,” Jenny pleaded.
Philip felt a little uncomfortable at this scene.
Seeing Jenny’s pitiful look, Crusty suddenly had a thought and smiled lecherously. “I don’t mind giving you a week’s extension to pay back the money.”
Jenny smiled with joy. ” Really? That’s great! Thank you for giving me some time!”
Seeing Jenny’s excitement, Crusty said, “Hold on, I have a condition…”
