"Thank you for coming"

Taking a sip of my latte, I glanced towards Smallsnake who was sitting on the opposite seat to mine.

With his arms and legs crossed, Smallsnake looked at me in annoyance.

"...This better be worth it. It took me thirty minutes to get here. I am a busy man..."

Pttfff

Covering my mouth, I almost laughed out loud.

"Stop deluding yourself. Apart from me, there's no one else you currently manage"

"eh...ah"

Speechless, Smallsnake's demenour crumbled as he couldn't find any words to use to refute what I said.

It was true

In the latter half of the novel, when smallsnake meets Kevin, he was still unemployed. This meant that apart from me, there was no one else he managed.

Although he wasn't lying about taking thirty minutes to arrive here, he wasn't busy at all. He was merely pretending to look busy.

With a vein popping from his forehead, Smallsnake's extended his hand in my direction.

"...get to the point"
