“Darling, it has been a while since we last went to the night market. Why don't we go there tonight?”
Jennifer used to frequent the night market with Donald.
Back then, neither of them had much money, but food in the night market was cheap, so a small amount of money could feed them both.
As they became busy with work, they turned to ordering takeaway from nearby restaurants. It had been such a long time since they got a taste of food in the market.
“Sure. Let's walk there.”
After all, night markets were mostly frequented by university students, so they would stick out like a sore thumb if they drove.
They walked to the market following the trail by the river. After some time, they noticed a crowd gathered in front of a stall.
“D*mn! You sure are reckless to set up a stall without knowing a thing about Mr. Raven from Sunrise!”
Raven, who wore a Polo shirt, was enjoying some grilled meat while sitting on a blue chair. He behaved arrogantly as he looked despicably at the man kneeling before him.
Raven spat the bone in his mouth in front of the man and said casually, “The fact that you can set up a stall here means you have some money. Let's see... I will protect you if you pay me twenty thousand.”
The man retorted seethingly, “We're earning money doing honest work and also renting the stall with our own money, so why should I pay extra money to you?”
“Oh, you're quite the stubborn one.”
Raven stabbed the skewer he was holding into the man's hand, causing the man to wail in pain while the hooligans around them burst into laughter.
“Dad?” When Jennifer peeked through the crowd, she realized the man kneeling on the ground was none other than her father.
Her first reaction was wanting to rush over to Leonard, but she hesitated upon recalling what he and Linda had done to her.
“Don't hit my husband! I already called the police! Leave us alone! Go away!”
