"You have some foreign currencies, don't you? Drop all the money you have here as compensation."
The atmosphere instantly shifted.
Little Sweetie "..."
Ekene "..!"
John ".!!"
Karen "!!!"
Abuchi "..?"
The crowd "???"
People gasped.
"What?"
"All the money?"
"You've got to be kidding," someone whispered behind them.
The leader glanced at his dazed brother again, who was still holding his jaw and blinking like he had forgotten what day it was. "From the looks of it," he continued, "we might have to get an MRI. Who knows if you've damaged his face, or worse, his brain."
Abuchi's crew stared at the man like he had just grown three heads.
Karen scoffed aloud.
Ekene narrowed his eyes.
John's hand slowly curled into a fist.
Abuchi himself looked stunned for a second before he stepped forward, jaw tightening.
