Raymond clucked at the sight of Jerry's heart-wrenching face begging him for again not being able to repay the debt.
Actually he was lazy to deal with this kind of business. It's like a bank deputy, he thought. But, for some reason, he still came to Jerry today.
"Didn't you make money from your transaction yesterday?" syndicate Raymond.
At once, Jerry recalled the matter with Mr. Alison's.
"Ah, yes, maybe you mean about that night. Yes, that is, sir. Mr. Alison asked for the money back, I couldn't possibly not do it, she could sue me for cheating on her."
"You tricked me too! You said you wanted to pay your debt!" tukas Raymond vile.
"If only that night you hadn't bothered Mr. Alison and meddle, maybe I'll get some money and pay my debt to you." Jerry muttering. But, Raymond's hearing quite clearly captured what the man was saying.
"What did you say?"
"No one" said Jerry.
"Quick say!"
"Ehm. that, sir. You interfered that night causing Mr. Alison's mad...."
Raymond smiled as he heard it.
"You sold your own lover to Mr. Alison, without her knowing. How can I not interfere!" raymond was calm.
"Love?" Jerry was surprised by Raymond's response.
"Yes. Anne... isn't she your lover? Never mind, I don't want to listen to your personal business. The point is you pay your debts or you deal with them today." Raymond slid his chin towards the five adjutants who went with him to visit Jerry today.
"Don't, Master!" Jerry immediately begged, he even kneeled at Raymond's feet. "Give me the ease and grace a little more."
"You've wasted my time!" Raymond got up and walked away from Jerry who was under his feet. "Take him!" he said to the aides.
"Mr Rodriguez, please! Or.. I'll pay for it with Anne's body if you want!"
At that moment Raymond stopped. He shook his head faintly. Didn't expect Jerry still intended to sell his girlfriend. Even now wants to make Anne a debt redeemer.
"You think I want to?" asked Raymond, laughing.
"I guarantee you won't regret it. Anne's a good woman. I dare to guarantee that he hasn't been stabbed ah by any man."
"Including you?" raymond's teasing still thinks Jerry is Anne's lover.
"Yes. I never touched it. If you want you'll be first."
"I have never before made a woman or a girl as a means of transaction let alone as a debt-redeemer" Raymond's circus.
"Or if you're not interested in her body. You can hire him without a salary. Make him a slave is fine too."
"Gosh, I'm so fucking puffed out to hear you."
Raymond walked away from Jerry with all his bullshit.
"Stop him. If necessary, I won't see his face again." Raymond's message to the aides there. Then the man literally left without caring about the hysterical screams of Jerry being beaten up.

"Sia lan! Why would a man like him have to live!" as Raymond was hitting the steering wheel in front of him.
The man drove his car with mixed feelings. His conscience touched, he pityed the fate of poor Anne. After all, all this time he had a high social spirit. That's why she and Abrine used to always visit social parlors together.
"Maybe I can turn down that brig because I feel sorry for Anne. Maybe Anne was lucky yesterday because I saw her at the hotel with Mr. Alison, but if Jerry's going to sell it back to another striped guy, how about it?"
Raymond could not think anymore. In his head there was only the desire to talk to Anne in order to warn the girl.
Unknowingly, he turned the wheel. Turn around to Abrine's office.
For a 30-minute drive, he finally got there. If he usually wanted to visit Abrine, this time his destination was different.
"Anne...." As soon as he saw the girl he wanted to meet out of the office, he immediately ambushed her. It just so happened that this coincided with the return hour, so she no longer needed to go in there to find Anne.
Anne gasped in shock, especially Raymond holding his wrist.
Anne had not had time to master the situation because she was surprised by Raymond's attitude. The man immediately pulled ya to get into a car that was not too far from them.
Raymond even opened the door for her, then walked around the car to get back in the driver's seat.
Anne looked at the man beside her with a surprised, astonished and confused look. There are also many questions to ask this man.
But, throughout their journey, none of them wanted to open their voices first.
After feeling quite silent about the state of Raymond's car that continues to circle the city center without a clear purpose, Anne finally ventured to speak.
"Where are you taking me, sir?"
"Then, what was your purpose in intercepting my move?"
"Speak as usual. I don't like being too formal outside of work hours like this."
Anne nodded. "Ecchem..." He cleared his throat for a moment, neutralizing his feelings.
"So....what?" ask Anne then.
"I don't mean to interfere in your business. But, I don't want you to continue to be in a relationship with a guy like Jerry."
"Jerry?" Anne frowned in hearing Raymond's words.
"Yes, your lover is trying to sell you to Mr. Alison, right?" hatch Raymond.
Anne seemed to have misbehaved. He had also guessed this even though he could not directly accuse Jerry just like that because he had no proof.
"Why are you quiet?" ask Raymond again. "You know that Jerry se breng? then you're still going to be with him?" angry Raymond.
"Why are you angry?" Anne answered Raymond with a sewot.
"Yes, I don't like it when you're dealing with a guy like him. He even wants to make you a debt-redeemer. Just so you know, he's got a lot of debt in my company!"
Hearing that Anne's eyes were puffed up. Warfare. He didn't know Jerry was that bad. He thinks Jerry just needs a fee to support his collapsing company. Jerry never told me he had a lot of debt.
"W-what are you saying, sir?" Anne looks pias.
"You don't know that Jerry's broke? He's trying to borrow money everywhere."
"I know about his company, but I don't know he owes you."
"He made you a debt-redeemer. You want?" Raymond smiled in a slant.
"No!" reject Anne firmly.
"I don't want to either! That's why you end your relationship with a guy like him."
Anne shakes. "Why do you care so much about me, sir?" tanyakanya.
"I? Care about you?"
"Yes, until you asked me to break up with Jerry. I'm not even dating her!" anne then surprised Raymond.
"really? Then what's your relationship?"
"She's.he's my half-sister!" Anne threw a glance towards the car window.
"Ehm." Raymond mangosteen.
"So, can you now tell me why you suddenly care about me, sir?"
"Because. because I know you. You're Abrine's secretary, too."
"Oh." Anne just oh ria.
"Yes, the point is I want to warn you about Jerry. I thought she was your lover. Sorry...."
"Hmmm..."
"Why are you so quiet?"
"What do I have to answer again, sir? You want me to keep fussing?"
"Yes, so much better."
Anne shook her head. But, he suddenly recalled something he wanted to ask Raymond.
"Thank you for warning me. You've also rejected Jerry's offer." Anne was so grateful Raymond still had a conscience. At least she felt amazed by this man beside her. "But can I ask you, sir?" continued.
"Yes.ask."
"Why was that night I could be in a hotel room booked in your name?"
"Huh?"
"Yes, as I recall that night I was dealing with Mr. Alison's. Then I got drunk. What happens next?"
"You're this...it's too plain! I saved you that night! Jerry wants to sell you to him. Thankfully there was me. Remember yes, you owe me." Raymond said arrogantly but somehow Anne was amazed to see it.
Hearing that, Anne also directly lowered her face, she was ashamed of herself. How not? He's been thinking too far. To the extent that he also thought something had happened between him and Raymond that night.
But, hearing that nothing had happened to them, why was Anne a little disappointed? Did he really expect something to happen that night?
