Chapter 189: Fee
Anna nodded to him, not objecting to his idea.
After that, he stepped forward towards the man, stretching his neck until it produced quite a loud cracking sound.
"Boy, do you think you have the ability?" The bald man beside Jamesone also shouted at Aldric.
As his friend, he naturally wouldn't keep quiet when his friend was being bullied.
Aldric ignored him, continuing to move forward with calm steps.
"Asshole!" Jamesone finally couldn't stand his attitude, he lunged forward.
Even with a bulging belly, he was able to move quickly.
He even jumped up to hit Aldric in the head.
However, in response, Aldric casually grabbed his hand, pulling it suddenly until he lost his balance.
Hood!
After that, he wrapped one wrist around his neck and stomped hard on his ankle.
"Ahhhh..." There was a cracking sound from his ankle, followed by a loud scream from his mouth.
It hadn't even been a moment since the fight started and the results were already visible.
With his leg bones broken, Jamesone could only continue to scream while his strength became weak.
"You!" The bald man was dumbfounded by this result.
At a glance, he could see that Aldric was very skilled.
He wasn't like these casino security guards who usually took ten people to catch Jamesone.
Despite wanting to help his friend, the bald man became a bit scared.
Actually, Anna was also surprised when she saw Aldric in action.
She thought they would exchange a few blows first.
Aldric showed an indifferent expression, ignoring everyone's surprised gazes.
Of course, they were all silent including the security guards.
The security had been asked by their boss not to interfere with this matter. They naturally obeyed.
In fact, they had actually forbidden people from recording and it had been prohibited in the casino since the beginning.
Aldric then looked at Anna.
"Lady Anna, let's go, we can force him to transfer money to your account to settle the debt," he said.
Anna nodded, allowing him to lead the man out.
However, before he could take a step, Samir suddenly approached him.
"Buddy, come with me, I have an empty room for you to take care of this man. It's better than outside because we can't stop people from recording if it's outside," he said.
Aldric looked at Anna after hearing his words, following her decision.
And she didn't seem to object.
"Okay, Samir, take us there," she said.
Samir then led the way.
They did not go upstairs but to a door in the casino.
By this time, Jamesone had stopped screaming but his face was still red.
He looked at Aldric and then Anna before shouting.
"Anna, you have committed a serious crime by physically attacking me, I will definitely report you to the police," he said.
"Don't worry, I'll compensate you for the damage to your body, but now I need to get my money first," Anna replied calmly, not caring about his threats so he could only glare.
When Samir arrived in front of the door they were heading for, he opened it, revealing a room that wasn't very bright as there was only one lamp illuminating it.
It was actually a warehouse that stored broken machines.
Samir entered first and invited Aldric to enter.
Apparently, Samir was carrying a flashlight which, although small, had a very bright light.
He used the flashlight to illuminate the room.
After Anna also entered, he closed the door.
"Aldric, take his cell phone," Anna said.
Aldric nodded, rummaged through the man's pants pockets and immediately found his cell phone.
It was of course locked, but it could be unlocked with a fingerprint.
He forced the man to press his fingerprints against the screen of his phone so that it would unlock.
His expression instantly became worse.
His phone had a mobile banking app.

Through it, it was easy for him to transfer money.
The problem was that the app wouldn't ask for a pin as long as the fingerprint feature was active.
"Anna, do you want to rob me?" asked Jamesone in a loud voice.
Anna of course ignored him.
She took her phone from Aldric's hand.
After a few moments of swiping through the phone's screen, she became sullen.
"Jamesone, you're such an asshole," she said.
Who knows why she said that.
After that, she typed on the phone, appearing to write a number.
She then handed the phone back to Aldric.
"Press the fingerprints to the screen again," she said.
When he held the phone, Aldric finally knew why Anna was frowning.
It was because the money she could transfer from Jamesone's account was only £4.8 million. It was 200 thousand less because the balance was only slightly more than 4.8 Million Pounds.
Since that was all that could be sent, Anna could only accept it.
As soon as Aldric pressed Jamesone's fingerprint onto the phone's screen, the money was sent at that very moment.
Jamesone's face became so bad that his cheeks became slightly blue.
He no longer felt the pain in his legs. This time it was his head that hurt because his money had been drained.
"Boy, don't think you can run away from me after doing this," he said to Aldric.
Now he was starting to threaten him because if it wasn't for him, he wouldn't have lost his money.
Even though it was true that he had a debt to Anna, he still wasn't willing to lose money like this.
Threatened by him, Aldric smiled slightly.
However, he wasn't just smiling.
BANG!
His fist hit his distended stomach, sending him into the air. Then he kicked him so hard in the face that he was thrown, slamming into the broken machines.
The result was a face full of blood.
He seemed unable to stand up again.
"Hmph!" Anna snorted coldly at him.
"Jamesone, you still owe me 200 thousand pounds. It's good that I didn't ask you for interest on the loan," she said.
"However, don't think of running away without paying. In Europe, there is no place for you to run," she added.
After that, she looked at Aldric, becoming friendly again.
"Let's go, I'll give you a fee for this favor," she told him.
Hearing about the fee, Aldric became happy.
He quickly followed her without paying attention to Samir.
Anna herself only nodded to the man and the latter smiled faintly, as if to say this was just a small matter.
Of course, he needed to take care of the injured Jamesone himself.
Although he didn't have to send him to the hospital, he at least needed to send him out of the casino.
Arriving back at the casino hall, Aldric could feel the stares of many people.
Even the elites who wanted to go upstairs, postponed it for a while.
They seemed to want to see the outcome of this conflict.
Unfortunately, they only saw Anna and him.
After that, Samir also came out of the warehouse, calling the security.
They quickly arrived and entered the warehouse.
Aldric and Anna had already arrived outside and they went straight to the car, not planning to linger there.
"Aldric, do you want to stay at my hotel again? That way I don't have to make a detour to drop you off," Anna said as she started driving.
She had actually invited him to stay at her hotel again.
It was indeed a very comfortable place to sleep so he was interested.
Ever since the one time he slept in that hotel, he felt a bit uncomfortable with his own dorm. After all, in the hotel he was alone in the room, unlike in the dormitory where he had to be with Nolan.
It was just that, with Anna's increasingly strange nature towards him, he became a bit worried about her hotel.
It was dangerous and more worrisome if Jenny knew.
While he could make excuses to outwit her, what he needed to be wary of was Anna's actions themselves.
She could do something unexpected.
After thinking about it, he shook hie head.
"Lady Anna, I'll just go to my dormitory. If you are busy, I can go take a taxi," he said in a soft tone while looking at her and found that she rolled her eyes.
However, she nodded to him.
"Don't worry, I'll still take you," she said before turning the car onto the road that led to the University of London.
From the looks of it, this was not because she was lazy about driving him, but rather because she wanted him to stay at her hotel.
"Now, let's talk about your fee," she continued, which made Aldric look at her curiously.
This was also something he was waiting for.
If he got a fee, he naturally wouldn't refuse since his money had been drastically reduced since he bought the expensive ring for Jenny.
"I actually want to buy you something as a fee, either a car or an apartment for you to live in, but I'm afraid you'll be in serious trouble if you suddenly have a car or apartment. Jenny will definitely investigate how you're going to get those things..." Anna chuckled when she said that.
"Because of that, I decided to just give you the money. Actually, I also made a profit from selling my company's used goods to Jamesone, about 1 Million Pounds. That guy wasn't planning on paying in the first place so he didn't hesitate to give me a big profit. Unfortunately, he still has to pay. Currently, I've made a profit of 800 Thousand Pounds. This is because of your help, I will naturally give you a decent fee."
After saying that, she took out her cell phone.
What she did was to open the mobile banking app and select the transfer menu.
After that, she handed her phone to him.
"Write down your account number," she said.
Aldric who received her phone widened his eyes.
He saw the amount of money she wanted to send.
It amounted to £75,000 which was much more than he had guessed.
However, that was not what made him widen his eyes.
The expression appeared on his face because he saw the amount of money in her account.
