Oh, if thats the issue, then allow me to formally invite you now.
Finley laughed angrily, his fists tightening on the table.
Too late for that.
Even with your little invitation, I’m not about to kiss your ass and hand you more cash! don’t forget, we still have a few scores to settle
Kingsley was unfazed by the hostility, flashing a smile.
Alright, fair enough.
But whether you were invited or not, the fact is you came here, ate our food, and drank our wine, the same as the other guests
That makes you obligated to contribute to the occasion, doesnt it? Finleys eye twitched in frustration, wondering if Kingsley was serious
He wanted to punch Kingsley, but the bastards logic actually made sense.
Finley muttered curses under his breath, realizing he had trapped himself.
He had eaten here.
If word got out that he stiffed the host after dining like a king, his reputation would take a hit.
After checking his pockets and realizing he was out of cash.
Finley sighed and turned to his men.
Empty your wallets
Were giving him what he wants.
The Hidden Dragons men scowled but grudgingly complied
After all, they thought the food was nothing grand, and the 1500 dollars were more than enough.
Collectively, they managed to scrape together another 5000 dollars, which Finley slammed on the table in front of Kingsley
Here 5000 dollars! Thats more than enough now! Kingsley calmly handed the cash to Lauren.
Lauren, count it, please.
We wouldnt want to be shortehanged
Of course! Lauren giggled, clearly enjoying the situation as she began counting the bills.
Finleys face twitched in pure rage as he thought, Seriously? He doesnt even trust me to hand over the full amount? He could not believe how greedy Kingsley was.
After a few moments, Lauren smiled and announced, 5328 dollars, Dr. Baldwin ! Kingsley nodded in satisfaction before turning his gaze back to Finley.
His eyes twinkled mischievously as he leaned closer.
You know, Mr. Moore, all totaled, your contribution is just a little over 6000 dollars.
Its almost….
insulting.
You’re not trying to short change me, are you? Finleys face turned a deep shade of red as he glared daggers at Kingsley.
He finally understood Kingsley was not going to let him off without squeezing every last dime.
Finley crossed his arms, sneering.
Sorry, Kingsley, but if you want more, tough luck! Were out of cash.
If you’re that desperate, go rob a bank.
He was not broke, but he had limits.
He would not be bullied into emptying his wallet just for this.
Kingsley raised an eyebrow and replied calmly, Mr. Moore, don’t push me.
Finley snapped, Push you? You’re the one pushing me! He was in disbelief at how shameless Kingsley was
Kingsley simply smiled.
No worries.
You can pay by card, or maybe Venmo or PayPal? Finleys temper exploded.
Kingsley, don’t test me! Youve got some nerve
Ignoring his outburst, Kingsley continued casually, And if you’re low on funds, no problem! You can always take out a quick loan.
I’ll wait.
Finleys hands trembled in fury, his eyes blazing red with barely restrained rage.
He had never been so publicly humiliated
Meanwhile, his Hidden Dragons crew watched in stunned disbelief.
Damn… Mr. Moore wasnt exaggerating, one muttered.
This Kingsley guy really is something else.
Hes practically a debt collecting demon.
Lauren and Francesca were barely holding in their laughter Kingsley was relentless, stripping Finley and his gang of every cent.
Now, he was even joking about them taking out loans to pay him.
It was absurd enough to make headlines.
Finley gritted his teeth and growled, This is your last warning, Kingsley.
You’re pushing me too far.
The other Hidden Dragons members chimed in angrily.
Kingsley, you’re crossing the line! Youve insulted Mr. Moore enough already.
Yeah, man
Do you think you can just shake us down like this? Try that again, and well stop holding back! If you’re so strapped for cash, why not ask one of the VIPs on that platform? They can probably cough up a hundred grand without blinking
Kingsley calmly stretched out his hand, his eyes gleaming with determination.
Whatever.
You ate at Moonlit Apothecary, you pay.
Everyone else, including the VIPs, has done it, You think I’d let them eat for free? Finley slammed his fist on the table and shouted, You’re asking for it, Kingsley ! He was at his breaking point.
Normally, he would have gone berserk by now, but circumstances had changed.
His previous power base was in shambles after Atlas downfall leaving him in a vulnerable position. Kingsley leaned in slightly, his tone cold.
Mr. Moore, I’m sure you wouldnt want word to get out that you -mooched off a meal without paying, would you?
Finleys eyelid twitched violently.
What do you mean by that? I’m warning you don’t go spreading rumors ! Kingsley chuckled. Oh, it seems Mr. Moore values his reputation quite a bit.
But heres the thing this is my Moonlit Apothecary.
Youve eaten and drunk here without paying, and thats just unacceptable.
He leaned in a little and added with a smirk, All it takes is one loud announcement from me, and soon, everyone in Jayrodale will know you’re nothing more than a broke freeloader
Think about your uncles reputation ! Finleys expression darkened further as Kingsley casually said, So,
Mr. Moore, why not save face and swipe that card? Or perhaps consider applying for a loan? At the mention of Hidden Dragons reputation, the faces of the other gang members grew serious.
They could tolerate embarrassment, but their leaders reputation? That was sacred.
Mr. Moore, just pay something.
Its not worth the fallout.
Yeah, if word gets out that Hidden Dragons can’t even cover a meal, well never hear the end of it.
You know how these stories spread like wildfire
Itll be bad for everyone if this guy makes a scene.
Their words only fueled Finleys frustration.
His face flushed red, and for a moment, he thought his head might explode from the sheer humiliation.
Lauren and Francesca were already doubled over, their sides aching from laughter.
Kingsley had cornered him perfectly, and Finley knew it.
The thought of being publicly shamed like this was unbearable.
Fine, you win, Finley growled through clenched teeth.
How much do you want? Kingsley smiled cheerfully, rubbing his hands together.
Mr. Moore, youve asked the million dollar question.
The more, the better, of course.
Finleys face contorted in rage
More ? Give me a damn number! I swear, if you push me further, were going to have a problem ! Kingsley paused as if deep in thought before saying, Alright then.
