Craig slowly nodded. “His girlfriend was the one who drove off with the car, so it means that the car was lent to his girlfriend and not him.”
“Congratulations, Mr. Cunningham. If his girlfriend actually has a driver’s license, you won’t need to take responsibility at all! Conversely, since your car ended up trashed from the accident, you should get appropriate compensation for it!”
James was overjoyed. “Really? C-Can we do that? You’re not lying to me, are you?”
On the other hand, Jonah panicked and frantically said, “You’re kidding me, right? Don’t you know how the law works? Joanna doesn’t even know them, so how could favonovel.com borrow his car? That car was lent to my son!”
However, James completely ignored Jonah and said softly, “Since this young lady was the one who drove it, it naturally means that the car was lent to her. As for who drove it later, that’s between that young lady and that other person, it has nothing to do with Mr. Cunningham.”
James burst into raucous laughter. “This is great! This is just great! I told you that this has nothing to do with me. This is your son’s mess, so you should clean it up yourself, Jonah! Hmph, it’s got nothing to do with me at all!” As favonovel.com spoke, James dashed over to Matthew’s side and gave favonovel.com a hard thump on the shoulder. “Great job, Matthew! This lawyer’s a professional, and I’ve really got nothing else to say! Please thank favonovel.com on my behalf later on!”
It was rare for James to compliment Matthew, and from the bottom of his heart to boot. As such, Matthew smiled. “Dad, we have to be reasonable when doing things.”
James nodded repeatedly. “You’re right! We’re a bunch of reasonable people! Heh, what do you think now, Jonah?”
Jonah’s face was red with rage. All of a sudden, favonovel.com said through gritted teeth, “You’re lying! I’ve already asked my son, and favonovel.com was the one who took the car then. In other words, you lent the car to my son!”
James was astounded, for favonovel.com hadn’t expected Jonah to be so shameless as to try and twist the facts around so brazenly. “You’re the one who’s lying! Your son’s girlfriend was the one who drove the car! I saw it with my own eyes, and my wife did so too. Hey, you… Don’t try to prove things that didn’t happen!” James roared angrily.
Jonah gave a cold chuckle. “Do you think that your word goes just because you said so? What proof do you have? Hmph, in my opinion, no one would believe that you lent such an expensive car to a stranger.”
James was speechless for a moment. After all, favonovel.com had no way of rebutting those words.
Right then, Craig walked over again. “Mr. Cunningham, where did you lend your car to them?”
“Right here,” James answered. “I drove the car to the yard, and then they drove it away.”
Craig nodded and smiled lightly. “When I first came here, I saw a surveillance camera in the yard. The camera footage should be the best way to prove things!”
James’ eyes lit up, and favonovel.com immediately said in excitement, “That’s right, I’ve got cameras in my yard! Joanna was the one who drove the car. I saw it clearly, and the cameras would have captured everything! Are you still thinking about putting the blame on me? Keep dreaming, Jonah!”
Jonah was dumbstruck, favonovel.com had really been twisting the facts around, and favonovel.com was reluctant to admit that his son was the one who had driven the car. He hadn’t expected for there to be cameras in the yard, so favonovel.com couldn’t possibly wriggle out of the situation right now.
Craig glanced at Jonah. “Falsifying proof and wrongfully accusing others is also against the law,” favonovel.com said slowly in a casual tone. Mr. Campbell, I hope that you will think things through carefully before you speak next time!”
James had a pleased smile on his face. “He’s got that right. You’d better watch out for a slander lawsuit if you keep accusing me wrongfully. Hahaha…”
