"Fifteen thousand dollar bank savings book?" gerald asked, a little surprised.
Before Xeno could stop him, Gerald had opened the door to look at the extremely anxious Sienna.
“Ah, don't worry about that! I have to use that money!” xeno said with a smile.
“What are you using it for? And what do you hold in your hand? God, what are you doing with that big check ?! ”
The anxiety in Sienna's voice seemed to be getting worse.
“The money is for Gerald! How could we possibly buy a nearly completely new car for just a hundred thousand dollars? Moreover that Mercedes Benz G500!” answer Xeno.
“And why is that impossible? What's wrong with getting a portion of the money? Xeno, you can't fool others out of their money but you can definitely cheat him! Give me the check!” sienna shouted as she snatched the check from his hand.
“Pfft, we have sold that car for a total price of two hundred and seventy thousand dollars. We already gave Gerald a hundred thousand dollars and we also have to give your friend fifteen thousand dollars to introduce buyers to us!”
Hearing this, Sienna saw the check and gasped in horror at the amount written there.
“A hundred and seventy thousand dollars…? Xeno, what does this mean? Did you tell me that you used our own fifteen thousand dollars for Gerald? We will lose fifteen thousand dollars in this big deal! Are you crazy ?! ”
Shaking, Sienna immediately picked up a bottle of wine before throwing it towards Xeno. Although it didn't hit anyone, it fell right in front of Gerald.
Xeno himself became anxious, seeing his actions. Both seem to be getting ready to fight.
In fact, the car did not sell for two hundred and eighty thousand dollars. Xeno had spent his own money looking for a buyer. In the end, the transaction gave him zero profit. He did all this because he could feel that Gerald was very angry the night before. Xeno assumed that it was due to monetary problems.
Therefore, he wanted to help Gerald earn money as soon as possible. Xeno, for example, was more than willing to do it for his best friend.
Unfortunately, Sienna didn't have any of that.
"Go past my corpse! Gerald owes us a lot! Remember Xeno, you won't get kicked out if you don't stab someone because of Gerald! I wouldn't have had to live a life like this with you if it wasn't for him! You were at the top of your class at the time! ” Sienna replied as she started crying.
“What is Sienna? What are you talking about? ” curse Xeno as her face reddened in anger.
Gerald is caught between fights and he can only try to defuse them.
To be honest, Gerald felt a pain in his heart as Sienna recalled the memory of the incident.
Both Gerald and Xeno came from poor families. They had grown up with the same lifestyle and very little wealth, making both of them very close confidants.
While the two used to study together, Xeno, unlike Gerald, not only excelled in academic achievement, but he also liked to fight.
Not infrequently Xeno was caught fighting with others, even from a young age.
He even fought for Gerald as well. Gerald had experienced more bullying in high school compared to his time in Junior High, as Xeno was still fighting bullies for him back then. That all changed when the incident happened.
Back during their junior high school days, Gerald had a close female friend. They were not really in a relationship at the time. The most common thing they do is send letters to each other.
However, another student — who is a famous gangster — is interested in the same girl. Since he knew that Gerald had a close relationship with him, he brought some members of his gang to beat up Gerald after school one day.
Xeno was with Gerald back then and when he saw his best friend was about to be beaten, he helped Gerald fight back.
In a state of panic, Xeno stabbed the gangster's son with a knife.
Although it was fortunate that no one was killed that day, Xeno had to be expelled from the school for the incident.
