Aiden also bought two of Apple's newest laptops. He planned to use one himself and give
one to Serena. The price of these two laptops was no less than three phones.
Throughout the afternoon, he used more than $50,000 from Ava's card. When Aiden
wanted to give Ava an IOU, he was directly rejected by Ava. Director K's orders is to give
you these things unconditionally, so don't talk about money anymore, Ava said.
Seeing Ava insist, Aiden could only accept it helplessly. After that, Ava helped Aiden
make a few more boxes of hardcover business cards and drove Aiden back to East
Street. On the way back, in the car, Ava chatted with Aiden.
Although they were chatting, most of the time, she was still talking to herself. I didn't
think that people would dare to sell knockoff products in that kind of place. That damn
fatty is really detestable, Ava muttered to herself.
Seeing Ava, who was mumbling and eventually going back to her cold face, Aiden felt
that it was quite interesting and could not help smiling a little. Ava became embarrassed
when she saw Aiden somewhat smile through the rearview mirror. In a place where
Aiden could not see, Ava's pretty face could not help but turn slightly red.
She suddenly said in a low voice, Mr. Dale, can you not let Director Kane know about
today's matter? Otherwise, I will definitely be scolded. Of course, but… Aiden said. But
what? Ava asked.
Aiden smirked. But you need to exchange business cards with me. Ava quickly passed
her business cards to Aiden.
Ava. Ava Garner. Aiden finally knew Ava's name.
He's been blackmailed! When the car was halfway through, Aiden was bored and started
fiddling with the new phone in his hand. Since the number and other things were all done
in the shop, the phone could be turned on directly. For a high school student like Aiden
who rarely came into contact with electronic products, every operation interface in front
of him was so novel and interesting.
Ding. Playing with phones. Hand-brain coordination, plus one.
Current progress, one out of ten. Current level, beginner level. Ding.
Familiarized with mobile phone functions. Electronic product knowledge, plus one.
Current progress, one out of ten.
Current level, beginner level. The system was indeed heaven-defying. He can even
strengthen himself by playing with his phone.
Aiden's heart moved. He had not told his two best friends that he had bought his phone.
He could make a phone call and let them remember his phone number so that they
could contact each other in the future.
Among Zack and Jacob, Jacob's family background was slightly better. He had bought a
phone in junior high school. Although Zack did not have a phone, Aiden saw that the sky
was getting darker.
He thought that Zack and Jacob had walked to the game hall with their arms around
each other's shoulders, so he dialed Jacob's number. His phone rang. After a long time,
the phone finally connected.
Unexpectedly, there was a loud noise coming from the other side of the phone, along
with a rude scolding. Aiden's heart turned cold, and he no longer had any other
thoughts. He opened his mouth and shouted anxiously, Skinny, what happened? Among
the three of them, Jacob was the tallest and slimmest.
Zack was short and fat, and Aiden liked to read books the most. Therefore, their
nicknames were Skinny, Fatty, and Nerd. Huh? It's Nerd.
Is this your number? After a while, Jacob's voice came through the phone. Don't worry
about that. Why is it so noisy over there? It was fine if Aiden didn't mention it, but when
he mentioned it, he immediately heard Jacob's extremely irritable voice.
Fatty and I came to play the game, but we were blackmailed. Where are you guys? I'll be
right there. You? Forget it.
With your small body, coming here is also trouble. Cut the crap. Hurry up and report the
address.
Aiden frowned. Okay, I didn't want you to come. Jacob seemed to have something to say.
He hesitated for a moment and said, We are in the fatties arcade next to the number
three high school. Aiden said that he would arrive soon and hung up the phone. Ava, who
had been looking at the rearview mirror, saw Aiden hang up the phone and asked
straightforwardly, Where are we going? Aiden was slightly stunned and was somewhat
surprised by Ava's ability to observe people's expressions.
But when he thought that Ava was Anthony K's secretary, he felt that it was very normal.
Fatty's Arcade. Boom! Ava stepped on the accelerator, and the little red oddy flew
toward her destination like an arrow leaving the bowstring.
In less than five minutes, they had arrived at the Fatty's Arcade. I'll wait for you outside.
If you find anything wrong, contact me with your phone immediately.
I'll call the police immediately. Ava looked at Aiden and said. Aiden nodded and rushed
into the game console room.
The Fatty's Arcade was also a place Aiden frequented in the past, and it carried a lot of
memories. Aiden went to the second floor of the arcade with ease. He ran to a corner
where the three of them usually played.
Before Aiden reached the corner, he heard Zack's loud voice. Bastard! Spike! Don't go
too far!
When Aiden arrived at the corner, he saw Jacob and Zack. Both were blocked by a group
of tough-looking young men. There were about six or seven of them.
They had sealed off Jacob and Zack's escape route. Clearly, they did not give them a
chance to get away. The head thug's hair was dyed green, and he was dressed in
alternative punk-style clothing.
He pointed at Zack with his finger and said. Am I bullying you too much? You damn fatty
touched my woman's thigh! It's already very kind of me to ask you guys to pay a little
money. You guys still have the nerve to say that I'm bullying you too much? Bullshit! I
haven't even touched a strand of her hair! Zack was trembling with anger, and his face
was flushed red with blood.
Jacob said coldly. Spike, don't you want to use your girlfriend to extort some money? Let
me tell you, it's impossible! The person who was called Spike suddenly laughed. Not
paying? Then don't blame me for being impolite! Men, beat them up! Beat them until
they spit out the money! The thugs beside him immediately responded.
They raised their fists and were about to hit Jacob and Zack. Jacob and Zack gritted their
teeth and hugged their heads tightly. They were ready to be beaten up.
But at this moment, an extremely cold voice rang out from outside the crowd. If you dare
touch even a hair on their heads, I will let you know what it means to live a life worse
than death! The voice seemed to come from hell, causing the hoodlums' hair to stand on
end. Their hands stopped moving.
They turned around and found that it was just a boy who looked like an ordinary student.
It was Aiden, who had arrived just in time. Hey, who are you trying to scare? One of the
thugs saw that the person who frightened him was a younger man and immediately
stood up in anger.
He wanted to rush up and teach Aiden a lesson, but was stopped by Spike. Hey, this is
an old acquaintance! Everyone calls him Big Brother Aiden! Although Spike said so, the mocking expression on his face was obvious. He looked at Aiden, who was approaching
him, and a wicked smile suddenly appeared on his face.
The smile was full of pride and contempt. It was like a general seeing his former
defeated opponent. Why did you come alone? Jacob and Zack saw Aiden coming alone.
They stomped their feet anxiously. They thought Aiden would call some helpers when he
heard the phone call. If he came alone, wouldn't he be beaten together with them? Aiden
didn't say anything.
He just came in front of the two of them and looked at the group of hooligans with cold
eyes. However, most of Aiden's eyes were focused on a girl dressed like a little girl next
to Spike. The little girl had the same red hair as Spike.
The thick eyeshadow, purple-black lipstick, and tattoos covering her entire neck made
her look like a perfect match for Spike. Time is indeed a pig-slaughtering knife, Aiden
sighed in his heart. Spike was right.
Aiden and Spike were old acquaintances. The rivalry between the two had started in
junior high. During junior high, Aiden was the top student in his class.
His family once thought that he could get into a key high school in the county. However,
during the second year of junior high, something happened that completely changed
Aiden and Spike's life trajectory.
