“How much?”
“It really costs 2,000 US dollars for such a small amount of food?”
“You guys are even blacker than black spots!”
In the Italian restaurant, after Borg, Eric, Judith, and Linda had eaten, they went to the front desk to pay the bill. They were completely stunned!
They didn’t expect the small amount of food they ate to cost so much money!
It was too expensive! It was a huge sum of money for Eric! This was why he was so hesitant about paying for the meal earlier. So, he couldn’t help but complain.
However, when he finished complaining, the cashier at the front desk of the restaurant said with a smile, “Hello, customer! You have ordered a total of four steaks, two bottles of French red wine, and two servings of snacks, as well as fruits after the meal. The total is 2001.6 dollars. We have wiped the change for you. The total charge is 2000 US dollars!”
Hearing this, Eric knew that this was indeed what they had eaten, but he did not expect that it would cost this much! He was stunned for a while, then he took off his shoes.
The waiter who smelled the stench immediately said, “Customer, please take note that we are a high-class restaurant!”
Eric ignored him and pulled out a bank card from his shoes.
The waiter was stunned. Why did this person hide the card here?
It was too dirty! Especially when he had done such a thing at the front desk.
When Eric handed the card to him, he could smell the stench of the shoe! He took two tissues and wiped the card, making Eric feel a little embarrassed.
Borg, who was beside Linda, said, “Linda, look, your father has his own money! He’s been hiding it from you.”
When Linda heard that, she looked at Eric. When she saw the bank card that he had taken out of his shoe, her face turned ugly. That devious father of hers!
She glared at her father fiercely. She would log this in her memories, keep it in mind.
In the future, if her father did not listen to her, she would expose what she had witnessed today!
Poor Eric was none the wiser, didn’t know his daughter had seen his secret bank card.
In the future, he would surely suffer for his actions today…
***
While Borg and the others were eating, the mayor of Austin City had submitted his resignation to his superior due to illness. Then, he quickly left the United States with his family and headed to a different country!
As for Soros, there was no news at all. No one knew where the old man had gone. No media outlets reported news on him. This was because just a while ago, all media companies had received a piece of news… It was forbidden to report anything about Soros!
He just simply vanished from the face of the earth.
***
Borg never worried about his daughter overthinking things.
He had been in hiding for so many years and had been a lay about for more than a decade. This had become the norm in his daughter’s eyes.
If you had provoked a powerful big shot, but unbeknownst to you your family background was even more powerful than them, when this matter was settled, would you think that it was your parents who helped solve it?
You wouldn’t think that your parents had done it. Instead, you would think someone else had helped resolve it.
Judith had investigated the time when she was injured in the Mafia incident.
But the information she received was that there had been a rebellion within the Mafia, and there had been a split in the upper echelons. That was why there had been such an incident. Finally, the person behind the Mafia had appeared and calmed the situation. That led to the scene in Caesar Square, where they had to kneel and apologize.
When she received this news, Judith chose to believe it. This was because there had never been any stable organization in the world. Everyone wished they were the one standing at the top.
There were many underground forces in the United States, so in her eyes, it was completely normal for such a situation to occur.
How many people knew about this matter and did not know Judith’s identity?
Which one of them did not know that Judith was the daughter of Asura?
Even if they were courageous, they did not dare to go behind Asura’s back by letting Judith know about this matter. So, they helped to conceal it.
As for the matter of her being accidentally injured and put in the hospital after the incident, there was no need for any reason.
Every assassin would report to their superior when they were carrying out their mission. As long as they did not have regular contact with the organization, someone would come to check on the situation in the end.
That was the benefit of having an organization. To the organization, every assassin was a tool for them to make money. Therefore, assassins were a very valuable resource. They would not just let the assassins go out to die. If they did, their organization would not last long.
For this reason, the organization would take 20% of the profits as a reward. If it wasn’t too dangerous, the organization would be guaranteed a profit.
Judith’s accident happened in a downtown area. Gunshots were heard, so naturally, someone quickly went to investigate.
After she woke up, the first message she saw was from the organization. Because of her failure in this mission, the organization decided to deduct 100 points from her as punishment.
Seeing this message, Judith didn’t suspect anything.
Someone else might have investigated based on the message, but this matter was arranged by Borg from top to bottom.
After Judith’s strength had reached a certain level, Borg would tell her everything, but it wasn’t the time yet…
***
After dinner, they left the restaurant and returned to school.
No matter what, today was an exam day. Judith and Linda still needed to prepare for the exam.
But Linda’s mood wasn’t great.
After seeing his daughter this way, Eric asked about it.
He found out that the exam questions this year were too difficult. The students didn’t know how to answer them at all!
Apparently, some of the most senior teachers deliberately made things difficult for the students, and some of the questions weren’t even questions that humans could solve!
Hearing this news, Borg asked Judith if Linda was right. After getting a positive answer, Borg quickly had an idea…
Although he and Eric had enough skill to ensure their children could go to a good school and university, they still wanted to let the children try for themselves.
After all, this was their exam.
After sending the two children into the exam room, Borg whispered to Eric, “How about it? Do you want to do something with me?”
Then, he whispered the plan in Eric’s ear…
When Eric heard it, he replied in surprise, “What? Steal the test paper!”
