Elder Hassan was having people tally the supplies. Sean Knight, Clarence Hughes, and Elijah Hastings approached him.
"Elder Hassan, Principal Miller has an urgent matter and wishes to return to our country. We've discussed it just now, and I will take over his share.
"I'll convert it to cash for him. What do you think?"
Elder Hassan glanced at Sean Knight and Clarence Hughes, then immediately nodded and said:
"Of course, that's fine... Mr. Miller, are you leaving right now? I've been so busy lately, I'm afraid I haven't taken good care of you..."
"There will be time later." Clarence Hughes had calmed down by now but did not regret his decision. After all, there was still Howard Richardson between him and Sean Knight.
Although his relationship with Hassan was not bad, he was still an outsider after all; who knew what the future might hold?
