Shorty nodded with a sneer, but his thoughts drifted back to the moment he faced the boss of Delmar on Erma Planet.
He clearly remembered the expression on the boss's face when he presented a massive check; it was simply too amusing.
Perhaps it was because he had never seen a check of such a large amount, or maybe he didn't expect Shorty to bribe him, or perhaps he wanted the money but was too embarrassed to show it.
In any case, the look on the boss's face was truly priceless at that moment.
Especially when Shorty whispered a few more words in the boss's ear, the boss's eyes widened in amazement, staring at Shorty in disbelief.
Shorty smiled humbly and nodded affirmatively at the boss.
Then the supreme being of Delmar stashed away the check, and the time that followed was spent fostering friendship.
Shorty's expression didn't change, but he was elated inside, thinking it was so worth it to spend the money!
