Chapter 20: Persuade Him
Hugh Spade thinks it's a good day, because when he just woke up in the morning, his damn ex-girlfriend Meloni called and said that she now had a hundred dollars, and wanted to get back a few photos, hoping that he would take them to see her at his residence in Warwick City after work.
So after Sinclair elementary school, Hugh Spade drove back to his residence early, although the gap was too big from the five hundred yuan he requested, but the hundred yuan plus his weekly salary of one hundred and forty dollars could at least ensure that he would become a normal human again this week, not a poor ghost who couldn't even pay his commercial insurance and was ready to sell blood to maintain his dignity.
He opened the refrigerator, took out a can of beer, poured it in, and then reached to the innermost part of the refrigerator, took out a folder from it, and poured out all the photos inside.
These are his precious collections, all of which were taken by Melonie when she was half-pushed or drunk when she was dating him.
Hugh Spade drank a beer and examined it for a few minutes, picking out the three that he thought were the ugliest out of the two dozen photos, putting them in his pocket, putting the rest away and putting them back in the fridge.
After getting the photo, he walked out of the apartment with a beer, then pulled the door and got into his family car, starting the car and heading towards Warwick City.
Standing in front of the apartment that had left fond memories, Hugh Spade rang the doorbell and saw Melonie opening the door, he opened his arms and smiled hypocritically: "Dear Meloni, I don't know why, every time I see you, my mood improves." ”
"Here's a hundred, give me back the picture." Melonie didn't intend to let him step into the apartment, just stood in front of the door and said with a cold face.
Hugh Spade chuckled, "You should have invited me in for a coffee and some dessert, remember that time in Boston, just like that, give me ......"
"Photos, and get out." Melonie didn't bother to listen to his greetings, took out a hundred pieces and clamped them to her fingertips, and said with hatred.
Hugh Spade licked his lips with his tongue and slowly retracted his smile, "I need to make it clear to you about our respective positions when we get along, B*tch." ”
As he spoke, he directly grabbed Meloni's wrist and showed him the banknote, and then directly exerted his strength, pulled Melonie into the apartment together, and then closed the door heavily!
"Do you want to hit me? Like last time? Melonie took a deep breath, her eyes fixed on Hugh Spader, and spoke.
Hugh Spade slowly threw away Melanie's wrist and laughed again: "No, dear, of course I won't, normal transaction, you pay me for the photography, I'll give you the photo, I'll ......"
He surveyed the room, then fixed his gaze on the coffee table in the living room, where capsules and pills were scattered across the transparent glass table, and next to it were bags of medicine in separate bags.
The drugs immediately attracted his attention, and he walked towards the coffee table, and Melonie immediately stepped forward to stop him, and said, "It's not mine, I'm just helping to dispense!" ”
"Fuck off, B*tch, don't force me to leave marks on your face like I did last time." After Hugh Spade shook his fist to scare Melonie away, he walked over and picked up the bags of drugs and looked at them, and said in surprise: "Adlar and Sleep Keto, these are good things that are hard to buy in pharmacies these days." ”
"I said, it's not mine, it's my tenant, I'll help him pack it up and make some extra money." Melonie suddenly stepped forward next to her, reaching out to try to retrieve the medicine Hugh Spade had picked up, explaining in her mouth.
Hugh Spade raised his hand and punched Melonie in the face, and Melonie was knocked over on the couch by the whole person.
"Do you need me to use my fist again to help you remember what pain is?" Hugh Spade stared at Melonie condescendingly with fierce eyes and spoke.
Melonie covered her face and looked at Hugh Spade in horror, her voice crying: "Hughes, that's not mine, if you want me to make money, don't mess up my job, Please......"
"Baby, oh, it breaks my whole heart to see you cry." Hugh Spade made an exaggerated expression of distress and sneered at Meloni, "So, your tenant is a drug dealer? Gangsters? If you don't explain it to me, I can't guarantee what will happen next, maybe your beautiful photos will appear in schools everywhere, and you will wait for the rest of your life to help drug dealers dispense drugs! ”
"No ......," Melonie cried on the couch.
In Meloni's intermittent narration, Hugh Spade learned everything, this woman rented a small bedroom to a high school student at Lincoln High School in order to raise money, and it turned out that the high school student did not come here to study at all, but to do his small medicine business, every evening there would be male and female high school students come to him to buy some medicines, and then go to various youth parties, Melonie stopped several times to no avail, plus lack of money, was moved by the other party, and started to help him distribute drugs and sell them to those students who came here to get the goods, Earn some extra money.
"That guy is a gang-member! Italian Black Hand Party! If you take those goods, he'll get you in trouble! Seeing Hugh Spade looking at the drugs with greedy eyes, Melonie suddenly mustered up the courage to shout.
Hugh Spader laughed, "You know, if that guy was really a gangster as you say, you would have spoken out in the first place, instead of trying to scare me away when I was about to take the goods." ”
As he spoke, Hugh Spade picked up the medicine on the coffee table and put it all into his pocket: "I'll discount these for fifty dollars, and I'll pay me one hundred and fifty dollars for you today." ”
Then he bent down and picked up all the banknotes that had fallen on the ground when he beat Melonie just now, and turned around and walked out: "Before next week, you still need to pay me three hundred and fifty yuan, and you have to thank me for not helping you calculate the interest." ”
"What should I do if you take those goods! Hughes! Hughes! Melonie struggled to her feet on the couch and hurried after Hugh Spade.
Hugh Spade turned gracefully and looked at Meloni: "You're so pretty, how about sleeping with that little guy, maybe he won't blame you for losing the pill, but will pay you a sum of money for the night." ”
"You bastard!" Melonie swung her fist at Hugh Spade like an enraged female beast.
Hugh Spade lifted her leg and kicked Meloni's lower abdomen hard, kicking Melonie two steps back, holding her lower abdomen and kneeling to the ground with a painful expression!
"Bitch who doesn't know how to appreciate it, ho~" Hugh Spade spat on the ground, then took out the three photos he brought from his pocket and threw them on Meloni's body like garbage: "Take it and enjoy it slowly, your pair of Naiko is very charming." ”
Walking to the door and opening the door, Hugh Spade seemed to remember something, turned to Melonie, who was kneeling on the ground and reaching out to pick up the photo, said:
"Remember to help me prepare coffee and dessert the next time you call me to pick up the money, see you next time, baby."
The door slammed shut, and Melonie got up from the floor, wiped the tears from her face with her hands, got up and walked to the window to look out at the parking space, and only after she was sure that Hugh Spade was driving away did she pick up the phone and dial a number:
"He left and took the medicine."
On the other side of the phone, Tommy Hawk said in a calm voice: "The next thing has nothing to do with you. ”
"What the hell are you going to do, Tommy, at least let me know that you're not going down the path of crime." Melonie said nervously.
"I'm helping Mr. Hugh Spader find a buyer and persuade him to go down the path of crime." Tommy Hawk finished speaking and hung up.
