Chapter 1194
“Either you pay the money, or none of you will leave today!” The man hissed. More and more cars began to gather
around them, disrupting the traffic flow. The sound of the horn resounded continuously, and there were passersby
on both sides.
“How could you do that?” Lucy shouted nervously, “We already said we’d pay you, but $15,000 is too much for us.
Can’t we work something else out?”
The man spat at the ground and said,” Work something else out? I just want money. Don’t think that just because
you two are women, I won’t dare to do anything.”
Naomi looked at him calmly and said, “The manufacturer’s price for the model of your
car is about $270.000, and it’s the cheapest model. The annual full coverage insurance cost is $4,200, and even if
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtyou’ve included the gas fee, parking fee, and road toll for a year, it only takes you about $15,000 to keep a car, but
you’re asking for $15, 000 just because of a little scratch? Go ask the insurance company yourself and see if they’ll
give you the money or not.
“I’ll do the calculation for you. I’ll do the math for you. The automobile sales service center will charge you $300 to
get your tail light fixed, but you can get it repaired with a few dozen dollars at the automobile repair shop outside.
Besides, it only takes about $150 to fix the dent as well as to repaint it.
“Moreover, your insurance will fully cover for a minor accident like this, and we just need to pay for your damages.
It’s our fault for hitting your car, and we’re willing to pay reasonable compensation. But at the same time, we also
have the right to reject if we find your demand unacceptable. “Also, I agreed to call the cops, but not only did you
refuse to cooperate, but you even destroyed my phone. Therefore, I have every right to suspect that you’re
intentionally causing trouble and extorting money.” Perhaps the man did not expect he would run into someone
difficult like Naomi, and his face was getting darker and darker. He pointed at her nose and shouted, “Do you know
who I am? Do you believe I’ll find someone to get rid of you tomorrow!?” Naomi clenched her fists tightly but stared
at the man unflinchingly. “Oh, so you’re threatening me now? You can try if you dare.” How dare you!” The man
suddenly raised his arm in the air.
Naomi closed her eyes. When the slap that she had expected did not fall, she opened her eyes only to see that
someone had grabbed the man’s arm.
The man was startled as well as he asked,” Who are you?”
Francisco pushed him away and took his sunglasses down. “How can you hit a woman in the street? Are you still a
man or not?” “It… It’s none of your business!” The man studied him up and down before pointing at him, “Are you
going to stand up for them? Do you know who I am?”
Francisco snorted and said, “Then do you know who I am?”
The man was stunned.
In the next second, two police cars came over. “What are you all doing here? You’re blocking the traffic. And who
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmcalled us?”
Lucy ran over and said, “I called you.”
She secretly called the police when the man was arguing with Naomi, and now that they were there, she heaved a
sigh of relief. The man’s face changed when he saw the police officers. However, he insisted that it was them who
refused to cooperate and compensate him for the damage. Lucy then chimed in angrily, “When we said we want to
pay you for the damage, you were the one who asked for $15,000. When we wanted to call the police, you stopped
us. I have recorded everything down. You’re trying to extort and defame us!” Lucy then gave the recording to the
police officers. After watching the recording, they caught the man who tried to run away. “Sir, this is just a
misunderstanding. I… I was just joking with them…”
The police officer said expressionlessly,” Joking? Then I’m sure you’ll enjoy the time with us at the police station.
After all, we like to joke as well.”
The police officers brought him away, and his car was left on the spot.
“Prosecutor Boucher? What are you doing here?” A police officer recognized
Francisco and asked curiously, “Are you with them?”
Francisco shrugged and said, “I just wanted to help them, and then you came.” Prosecutor Boucher?’
