Alessandra could not care less about her pain. She

hastily wiped the table and took out a cloth to wipe the

laptop and phone.

“Ma’am, my laptop’s motherboard is fried, and my

phone isn’t lighting up. You’ve got to compensate me.”

“I–I…” Alessandra paled, unable to form a complete

sentence. All she could do was bow and apologize.
