C18 Return to the past

T-Bone was very quick. Before long, he had someone bring over a table full of delicious dishes. It was rare to see him eating something he liked.

Jeremiah sat at the table and raised his eyebrows.

T-Bone was smoking a cigarette that had yet to be lit. He looked like he was waiting for you to ask him something. He squatted on the stool and said, "The sponsor arranged it for us. Are you satisfied? Oh, the lady boss also said that all expenses in the inn will be free from now on."

The sponsor was Loren, because he had offered a million dollars as a reward for the rescue team. He was the recipient of this "honor."

Although the people from the oasis had joined the rescue team, they still called him by his name.

However, Loren could not do anything about the arrangement of the food. It was probably the work of Dr. Graves.

Jeremiah's appetite seemed to have become worse.

"Why? You don't want to eat? The taste is not bad. It tastes like home."

Jeremiah put down his chopsticks and asked, "Do you have a cigarette?"

"Are you breaking the rules? I do!" T-Bone smiled as he took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and handed it to him. He asked, "What's wrong? I felt something was wrong when you came back that day."

Jeremiah did not answer. He lit the cigarette and took two puffs before he asked, "How is Claire?"

"I don't know. I heard from the lady boss that she is doing fine. I'm not sure about the details. The family is protecting her tightly. I didn't see Fei Fei when she went over... Oh, speaking of this, the rescue team has been paid. It seems like the Carter family paid for it."

Jeremiah waited for him to continue.

Sure enough, T-Bone paused for a moment and said, "Our team will have an extra bit of money. Donglai, this time, all the expenses for participating in the training competition will be borne by them, including the cost of the equipment for the next ten years."

He looked at him and said, "Do you think we should accept this?"

T-Bone and Jeremiah had known each other for many years, so he knew something outsiders didn't know. For example, this person in front of him didn't like the people from the Carter family.

Unexpectedly, Jeremiah was quite calm. "Accept it. Just take it as doing them a favor."

T-Bone nodded and said with a serious expression, "I think we should accept it. To be honest, if they give us money, I will definitely smash it back into their faces. I can't stand the way they treat rich people, but the equipment..." He scratched his head and said, "The temptation is a little too much. I don't even know how to reject it."

This was true. Most of the rescue teams were doing charity work, and getting an opportunity to update their equipment was truly a gift to the hearts of the people. Even Jeremiah could not reject them.

He didn't lack money, and he had a strong family to bear the burden for him, but that didn't mean that the other members didn't lack money either. They all had such a family.

Jeremiah flicked his cigarette and said, "That's good. Why should we reject it?"

T-Bone smiled and said, "The couple from the Lu family also said that they want to see you. Boss, do you want to see them?"

Jeremiah's face was hidden in the smoke rings. After a while, he put out the cigarette and said, "No." He was quite fair, "I don't want to deal with it."

This was also one of Jeremiah's usual ways of doing things. He did not like to meet the family members who were being rescued. T-Bone was also asking a question for no reason. Jeremiah did not say anything, so he did not say anything either.

After that, Jeremiah recuperated in the inn. Ophelia, T-Bone, and the others went out to run once again. Together with the other rescue teams, they organized a training exercise in advance.

When they left, they were afraid that Jeremiah would be lonely, so they called his pursuer, Zelma, back.

At the same time, they also gave him a little grey rabbit. "This is my family's favorite pet. You have to take good care of it."

It was imaginable how Jeremiah felt when he came back with a crutch and saw a woman and a rabbit in his room with a headache.

Coincidentally, Claire also came back that day.
