Hearing that, some of the executives of— who were standing behind Yaakov— moved closer to him before whispering some things into his ear.
After which, Yaakov then nodded with a bitter smile before saying, “! So, you're Terrance's granddaughter! From what I'm told, your family is trying to participate in this afternoon's underground festival, right? But you were rejected, right? ”
Not expecting Yaakov to actually say such things, Perla found her anger growing even more as Yaakov smiled subtly before adding, “Talk about the incident, she said, I was wondering if you just saved my daughter today to get access to the party ... Do you expect to get another chance to get admission or something?”
“...You... What did you just say...?!” perla was very angry.
'You're a famous and mighty master, aren't you? How could you target us like this from the start?!'
