Chapter 575 Chapter 575 +25 BONUS Lauren raised an eyebrow in confusion .
Who else ? Youre not seriously going to ask Mr.
Thatcher for money , are you , Dr.
Lloyd ? Andrew grinned and gestured toward the corner where Finley sat sulking .
Not Mr.
Thatcher .
Its our good friend , Mr.
Moore .
His uncles the leader of Hidden Dragons , so hes got deep pockets .
The mention of Finley made Lauren and Francescas eyes sparkle with anticipation .
If anyone was perfect for fleecing , it was that unlucky fool .

With playful determination , the two women followed Andrew , their heels clicking with purpose as they headed straight for Finley .
Finley was busy drowning his sorrows in liquor when he noticed someone standing beside him .
He frowned in irritation .
What now ? Cant a guy drink in peace ? Beat it ! Andrew chuckled softly .
Drink all you want , Mr.
Moore , but how about paying your tab first ? Finley froze for a moment before his face twisted in disbelief .
He looked up and saw Andrew standing there , smiling casually .
His eyes widened in shock .
Andrew ? How the hell did you sneak up on me ? The men at Finleys table tensed , their expressions wary as they watched Andrew closely .
Andrew did not bother to acknowledge them .
He kept his focus on Finley and continued in a friendly tone Mr.
Moore , youve been enjoying yourself- drinking , eating , even leaving bones all over the table .
But you see , all of this costs money .
So how about contributing to the occasion ? Finleys face darkened immediately .
He slammed his glass down in frustration .
Are you serious , Andrew ? I had a couple of drinks and some food , and now youre shaking me down like I owe you something ? He could not believe it .
Never in his life had he seen a host openly ask a guest for money like this .
It was humiliating , and in his eyes , completely beneath someone of Andrews status .
Andrew kept his smile intact .
Small business , Mr.
Moore .
You know how it is.
Surely , you wouldnt want to come across as stingy , right ? And with your Hidden Dragons connections , Im sure youre not strapped for cash .
The i jab hit its mark , and Finley bristled .
Are you calling me cheap ? he snapped , clenching his jaw .
He reached into his pocket and yanked out a wad of cash .
Slapping it down on the table , he sneered , There ! Thats 1500 bucks .
Take it and get out of my face ! Andrew calmly picked up the cash and handed it to Francesca , who beamed as she counted it .
Hmm , 15 bills .
Exactly 1500 dollars , she confirmed cheerfully .
Finley scoffed , crossing his arms .
Thats more than enough for this cheap spread .
Outside , this wouldnt cost more than 600 dollars .
Consider that extra 900 a favor .
Andrew shook his head , feigning disappointment .
Still not enough , Mr.
Moore , Honestly , its pretty embarrassing Finleys eye twitched as he crossed his arms .
Excuse me ? 1500 dollars isnt enough ? Of course not , Andrew replied , his expression serious .
Given your standing , thats pocket change .
Its not about the food its about your reputation .
Imagine word getting back to your uncle that you showed up to a celebration and barely contributed .
Do you really want to embarrass him like that ? Finleys face turned red with fury .
He laughed bitterly and leaned forward .
Wow .
Youve got no shame , Andrew .
Youll pull any trick just to squeeze a few more bucks out of people , huh ?
