Nicolai was speechless. He looked at Ari who looked back at him with a smile on her face. It was clear that she was quite amused by what she said!
"Pallas, you better not drink in the future for your safety," Nicolai said to Ari. He felt a throb in the back of his neck at the thought of how Ari could so effortlessly, harmlessly and easily ask for money from him when she was drunk.
When she was conscious this woman would think twice before even agreeing to have tea with him. But now she wanted ten million dollars and from her stance, it seemed like she was not going to go back home if he did not give her the money.
Just to confirm, Nicolai asked, "Are you saying that you will not go back without the money?"
To his surprise, Ari actually nodded. She agreed with him!
It only left him in even more shock. This woman… was this frank when she was drunk?
