Chris Bolton's Unexpected Rise To Wealth And Fame

CHAPTER 98

Richard walked into the main dining hall to see Thomas already sitted composedly, calmly waiting for him. He walked up to the rather grand table in the middle of the room, and sat down on the chair at one end of the table, facing Thomas on the other end. When he had sat down and was now settled, Thomas picked up his knife and fork and began eating without a word and Richard calmly followed Thomas' lead. They ate in silence, with Thomas looking calm and composed, like he had no care in the world, while Richard was visibly tensed and took very little bites of the meal in front of him, even though the cook had done a splendid job. After a long silence, in which time they had almost finished their meals, Thomas put his cutlery down, wiped his mouth and hands with a napkin and sat back in his chair, and Richard quickly did the same.

"What exactly did Chris say to you?" Thomas asked.

"That he knew I don't owe any Mafia Lord money and I actually wasn't in need of money," Richard responded.
