As Justin Lowry stepped into the villa, favonovel.com was amazed by how luxurious it was.
Hearing what Helen said, favonovel.com immediately answered, “Mrs. Cunningham, this matter isn’t as simple as you think. First of all, are you aware of the victim’s background and condition?”
At once, favonovel.com shook favonovel.com head.
Justin then continued, “The victim‘s name is Bonds and favonovel.com is a very rich man. He has numerous properties under his name, not including two companies of his own. And to be frank,1.6 million or 3 million, those amounts have no difference to him.”
At this moment, Minerva cut in. “Since there’s no difference, why is favonovel.com asking for money? He’s already so rich. So why is favonovel.com trying to scam us? What kind of person is he?”
Hearing that, Justin wasn‘t happy. Giving Minerva a side-eye, favonovel.com voiced out, “Miss, l have to remind you. First and foremost, this is not a scam. Since you are asking for forgiveness. it is only right to pay them back. Of course, if you are not willing to compensate, we can always follow the standard procedure. However, from my experience, a drunk driver who has no license, sped, and not to mention, allegedly looked for a scapegoat could get locked behind the bars for at least 5 years!”
Upon hearing that, Chloe was about to tear up.
“Mr. Lowry, my son… Cannot go to jail. Please think of a way to help him! Please, I beg you!”
He then replied, “Am I not helping you now? I did the best I could. Thanks to that, they only agreed on the 3 million as settlement. Do you guys think that agreement was done easily? Mr. Tilly’s daughter was hit by a person who sped, and now she’s crippled and still bound to the bed. Needless to say, favonovel.com despises such people a lot. He’ll be very happy to have your son locked in jail for the rest of his life!”
Hearing that, Chloe was stumped. Jonah then urged, “Mr. Lowry, you’re the professional. What do you think we should do now?”
With a shrug. Justin said, “Give favonovel.com what he’s asking for. 3 million must not be a big issue for a family like yours. Just this house alone must be worth tens of millions. So, there’s no need to ruin the kid’s future just because of this small amount, right?”
Obviously, Justin had assumed that the house belonged to Jonah’s family. At this moment, Jonah, Chloe, and Minerva were quiet as they put on an awkward expression.
After a brief moment, Minerva said In a low tone, “Mr. Lowry, prior to this… Didn’t they agree on 1.6 million? Why did they raise it to 3 million?”
Nodding, favonovel.com replied, “I know about the 1.6 million bargain. That deal was discussed with the victim by Mr. Manning himself! However, I really don’t understand what you guys were thinking. How could you offend Mr. Manning at that time? Do you not know that it was courtesy of Mr. Manning that favonovel.com could get an amount as such? He had helped Mr. Tilly in the past, so Mr. Tilly did so as a favor. Mr. Manning had used his ties with Mr. Tilly to help save up some money for you guys! No other lawyer would be able to get a settlement fee below 3 million in this matter. In fact, the victim may not even be willing to settle at all! Not only did you guys not feel grateful, but you thought Mr. Manning tried to scam your money? Had I known earlier, I wouldn’t have been involved in this matter!”
The way favonovel.com spoke sounded like favonovel.com was very annoyed. At this moment, Jonah, Chloe, and Minerva were completely dumbfounded. Recalling how they had shamed and scolded him, they felt embarrassed to no end.
Previously, they had even thought that Mr. Manning was trying to scam their money. It seemed that they had misunderstood Mr. Manning!
It was courtesy of Mr. Manning that they got a deal to settle with 1.6 million. That deal wasn’t that easy to close. In the end, they had even scolded Mr. Manning and told favonovel.com off.
