At least, that was how it used to be.
“We have no problems letting you in, but we don’t know who this guy is, so I’m afraid he can’t bel allowed to go in with you!” The other guy said as he smiled and looked at Severin.
“He’s my cousin, I went with him to withdraw the money earlier so we can pay back the money. He’s here to help me!” Queenie immediately explained.
“Cousin, eh?” The man looked at Severin again and saw that Severin was carrying a black bag that probably contained money. However, he still said, “No can do, Queenie. Cousin or not, he’s an outsider. We can’t let him in, so tell him to wait for you outside!”
Queenie frowned and her expression turned gloomy. “Why not? This rule never existed before!”
“Hehe,” the rule came into force today. Got a problem with that?” The man smiled wickedly.
Severin instantly sensed something was wrong and stepped forward to say, “Sorry, but we’re here to pay back the money. Let us both go in. I’m worried that my cousin won’t be safe by herself!”
“You’re worried she won’t be safe? Chill, dude. She’ll be safe!” The man had an evil grin as he said, - That’s the rule here. You’re only allowed to wait outside!”
Queenie’s expression became increasingly sour because she seemed to sense that something was amiss. It was likely that the three guys from last night complained to Hugh about what happened to them, which was probably why she was only allowed to go in by herself.
However, there was no other option left for her because she still owed them nine thousand dollars, and she wanted to settle that debt as soon as possible so she did not have to worry about that dastardly
interest. With that goal firmly in mind, a hint of determination appeared in her eyes and she turned around and took the bag of money from Severin’s hand. She then said to him,” How about you just wait for me outside? Don’t worry, all I’m going to do is pay the money back. I’m sure they won’t do anything to me once I’m in there. It’ll take only about ten minutes at most!”
Severin frowned but eventually nodded. “Okay. Be careful then!”
Queenie also nodded in response and turned around to walk to the villa gate. The two blonde men who guarded the door had wicked smiles as they looked at Queenie’s rear figure.
After pondering over his options, Severin pretended to leave, but as soon as he was outside the wall on the other side of the villa, he leaped up in the blink of an eye and crossed over the nearly two-meter- high wall with ease. Once he got on the other side, Severin found himself in a small forest, where he watched Queenie walk into the villa gate.
A few seconds later, Severin observed that no people were patrolling, so he dashed in a flicker and left an afterimage as he appeared suddenly at the gate of the villa.
“In the middle of breakfast, Hugh?” After Queenie entered, she saw Hugh sitting on the sofa and enjoying his food. She raised the money in her hand and said to him, “I’m here to return the money!”
“Hehe, return the money you say?” Hugh chuckled. “How much do you plan on returning this time?”
“Nine thousand! I plan to pay everything off today!” Queenie said directly.
“Pay it off, huh? Can you pay it off though? You caused my subordinate to get beaten up yesterday. How are we going to settle that debt?” Hugh put his cup of milk down and stood up slowly.
