Connor took his phone out and dialed Thomas’s number once he was out of Seven Days Hotel.
“How can I help you, Mr. McDonald?” Thomas’ voice came through as soon as the call went through.
“Help me check out a guy named Todd Knowles,” Connor said softly.
“You got it, Mr. McDonald. I will send someone right away, and someone will contact you soon.” Thomas readily answered.
“Good.” Connor nodded and hung up. Then, he hurried to Porthampton University. A Bentley stopped in front of Connor before he could enter the university campus. A middle-aged man in a suit stepped out of the car and bowed to Connor with respect. “Hello, Mr. McDonald.”
Connor studied the man in the suit. “You’re Thomas’ guy?”
“Yes, Mr. McDonald. Mr. Morgan asked me to check the background of a man named Todd Knowles. I have obtained all his information. Are you going to go meet him now?” The man in the suit asked.
“Let’s go,” Connor said, nodding.
“Please, Mr. McDonald.” The man in the suit opened the car’s door, thoughtfully putting his hand under the roof rail. He was very diligent.
The man’s action made Connor feel awkward. “You don’t have to do that,” he said in a low voice.
“You are Mr. Morgan’s boss, and Mr. Morgan is my boss. It is my pleasure,” the man in the suit said.
“Okay. What is your name?” Connor smiled at the man in the suit.
“My name is Kyle Hayes. Just call me Kyle, Mr. McDonald.” The man in the suit said as he drove.
“You’re Kyle Hayes?” Connor was shocked, and his expression was changing dramatically.
“You heard of my name before, Mr. McDonald?” Kyle asked with a smile.
“Of course I’ve heard of you. You’re well known in Porthampton,” Connor replied in surprise.
“Haha, thank you for your compliment, Mr. McDonald. I am just a nobody in front of you. Please feel free to call me if you need me in the future.” Kyle looked at Connor respectfully.
Connor looked at Kyle helplessly, not knowing how to describe his feelings.
