Malcolm was certain that Skylar would concede after hearing about the one hundred thousand dollars compensation.Of course, if the person in front of him was a regular person, he would be moved by such a proposal.It was unfortunate that the one thing Skylar did not lack was money!âQuickly apologize to that man!â Malcolm said firmly to Harper before Skylar could speak.âDad, you want me to apologize to him?âHarper had an indignant look as he said, âHe was the one who hit me first. Why should I apologize to him!âThe matter where he was slapped by Skylar in public had yet to be resolved, and now he was supposed to apologize to Skylar in his own house?Naturally, he was adamantly opposed!âApologize when I tell you to apologize. No more nonsense!â Malcolm abruptly snapped.Although he didnât consider Skylar a serious threat, the fact that the other party could survive Levâs ruthlessness demonstrated that he still had a trick or two up his sleeve.Even if the Fox family had nothing to worry about, he didnât think it was necessary to blow the situation up when it could be easily resolved with a small sum of money.âDadâ¦âAs if preferring death than to heed his fatherâs advice, Harper held his head high.âYou donât even listen to me now?â Slowly, Malcolm spoke.Even though the tone didnât sound particularly enraged, Harper was still taken aback because he knew this was just a prelude to Malcolmâs actual rage.Malcolm was rarely angry, but when he was, no one in the Fox household could stand it.As Harper lowered his head, he said to Skylar, in an insincere manner, âSorry, I shouldnât have hired Lev to kill you. I know Iâm in the wrong.ââYou know that youâre in the wrong?â
Skylar sneered and continued, âSo, just because you know youâre in the wrong means you can just write off all the crimes youâve committed?â âIs there such a thing as a free lunch in this world?ââAre you not receiving one hundred thousand dollars in compensation? You werenât hurt, and yet you made a hundred thousand dollars so easily. What else do you want?â Harper immediately expressed his dissatisfaction.Skylarâs gaze was icy as he mocked, âDo you think anyone cares about your hundred thousand dollars?ââIâve come to send you and your wife on your final journey!âSkylar turned to Ava after speaking, âWhoever wants to go to the netherworld first, you choose!ââYou!âAva shook with rage all of a sudden.Harperâs boning knife was aimed squarely at Skylar. âYouâve stepped into Fox territory. How dare you be so obnoxious. Are you not afraid that I will chop you up?âSkylar ignored him and shot a cold, piercing gaze at Ava.A response is necessary if you are brave enough to ask the question.âIn the forest, the trees look beautiful, but the wind destroys them. Itâs fine to be young and exuberant, but donât lose yourself in it just to win.ââI got Harper to apologize to you, and I promised you a hundred thousand dollars, which is more than you deserve. Donât push your luck! We tried to treat you with respect, but you refused it.â Malcolm shouted at Skylar with a scowl on his face.âYour Fox familyâs honor means nothing to me!â sneered Skylar.h such incidents.So, for the time being, he didnât consider Skylar and Dianne a serious threat.Instead, he sat back calmly on the sofa, looked at Skylar, and said, âBoy, Iâve heard about what happened between you and Harper.ââItâs his fault for hiring someone to run you over. I just reprimanded him, and he knows heâs in the wrong.ââHow about this? Iâll get him to apologize and give you another one hundred thousand dollars as compensation. What do you think?âMalcolmâs tone became a little arrogant at the end.
