With those words, Scarlet brought up the security footage.
Everyone hence watched as Peter got drunk and started to mess around, groping a waitress.
shed him a
He even got upset when she bragging about how important his family was…
Helen was left speechless after watching the video and shot a re of disappointment at Peter. On the
other hand, Ginapletely did not care, even standing akimbo as she snapped, “So what?! What my
son did to that girl is between them. What’s it to you?”
Scarlet slowly rose to her feet. “I own this ce, and I’m responsible for anything that happens to my
employees.”
“That’s enough.” Helen stepped up just then. “My brother is at fault, so I’ll apologize. What do you ask
forpensation? You can ask anything as long as it’s reasonable.”
“What are you doing, Helen?!” Gina snapped, clearly upset.
In her mind, that mere waitress was lucky her son was interested in her, though she would not allow
him to marry her.
“Your brother made a mess on my turf and harassed my employee,” Scarlet said evenly, holding
Helen’s gaze. “My security personnel even had to stop him. Counting all the losses, medical fees,
business damages, and misceneous costs… that would be ten million dors.” “What?!” Helen
actually thought Scarlet was reasonable, but she was clearly scamming them! “You’re crazy!” Gina
bellowed. “I could buy this entire ce with ten million!”
“So you’re not nning to pay up?” Scarlet asked nonchntly.
Helen frowned. “We won’t hesitate if it’s a normal rate of damages, but ten million is too much.”
“Yeah! Ten million? Here, have a thousand instead!” Gina snapped and whipped out a stack of bills,
dumping it on the floor!
Scarlet stared at it, suddenly amused. “A thousand? What do you take us for, a brothel?” Just then,
Peter got to his feet despite his battered face, suddenly growing a spine. “A thousand is already being
generous with the likes of you! I don’t mind telling you that my sister here is the CEO of Lane Holdings.
Who do you think you are to mess with her?!” “Hah!” Scarlet snorted coldly and fearlessly. “A measly
CEO trying to flex on me?”
Even the bouncers behind her wereughing.
“You’re really full of it, kid!”
“Don’t you know who Scarlet’s boyfriend is? It’s Phineas Tomkins!”
Helen and everyone else froze at the mention of Phineas–the man was the kingpin of South. City,
equal in influence to Leo Grayson!
And Scarlet, the woman before them, was his girlfriend…
“What…? This is Mr. Tomkins‘ turf…?” Gina’s face turned pale, and she started sweating buckets.
This is property ? of N?velDrama.Org.
Helen was frowning in turn–the incident with Leo still left her traumatized, and she really did not want
any further trouble with the mob!
Beside her, Peter gulped and hung his head in fear..
Their terrified reaction certainly left Scarlet smug, and sheughed heartily. “Understand
your situation now? Not only do you have to pay up, but your brother must get down on his knees and
apologize too, or none of you will be leaving!
The bouncers nearby promptly surrounded Helen and the others at Scarlet’s word, their burly forms
looming menacingly!
