Chapter 370

‘What’s the definition of pushing your luck?

This is it! Julian started the fight. I’m embarrassed to talk about medical expenses. But Stella is so shameless. She mentioned so many expenses.’

Only Keegan looked normal. With Stella’s personality, five thousand dollars was considered a conservative amount.

She did not care about the compensation. She did that because she wanted to demoralize the other party. Erick looked a lot unhappier.

He was a respected person with high status. So, of course, he was not happy about being made difficult by a girl.

But Keegan was there. So, he could only swallow his anger even when he was furious.

He turned his head to signal his assistant to transfer her the money hurriedly. He did not want to stay here any longer. Stella smiled slightly when she looked at the payment on her phone.” Mr. Chapman is more reasonable than Mrs. Chapman.”

Erick was speechless.

“Mr. Chapman, there’s one more thing that I need your help with. Do you mind?”

Erick coldly glanced at her. Then, he said in a deep voice, “Mrs. Kane, feel free to tell me.” Stella said, “My grandmother is celebrating her eightieth birthday the week after next week. I wanted to rent the Dragon Lagoon venue for her birthday celebration. But Mrs. Chapman said someone had already rented the venue. Can you help me to talk to Mrs. Chapman about it? Help us schedule a time for the birthday celebration?”

Of course, Erick knew about this. He needed the Kane family’s industry support at work. So, he would know about the “discussion” between his wife and Dahlia.

Olivia always did what Dahlia said. So, it must be that Dahlia wanted her not to rent the venue to the Kane family.

Erick was not willing to upset Dahlia. So, he said, “Dragon Lagoon is my wife’s property. I can’t help.”

“I see.” Stella slowly said, “Will Ms. Joanna be able to help? Mrs. Chapman hasn’t seen Ms. Joanna for many years, right?”

Ms. Joanna was the person who pretended to be Olivia.

Erick looked unhappy, “Mrs. Kane, are you threatening me now?”

“It’s just a business deal.” Stella bent her eyes. She lowered her voice, “Would Mrs. Chapman cry or laugh if she learned that the ten million dollars got her a son? After all, her dream for years sort of came true. She then immediately distanced herself. She faintly said, “It’s just business. It’s the same no matter whom you do this business with. Am I right, Mr. Chapman?”

Erick looked unhappy since the very beginning. But he looked frightened and panicked afterward.

‘She even knows about the ten-million-dollar incident. If this gets out, this would be more than just a behavioral problem.’

He suppressed his panic as he said in a deep voice, “I’ll try to talk to her about it.”

“Thank you for your help, Mr. Chapman.”

Ada was a little confused when she saw how the situation turned around. Everyone in the office could not hold it anymore. They kept tagging Ada in the group. They wanted to know the negotiated outcome. All of them were shocked when Ada sent them the results of the negotiation.

‘They actually made peace?

‘No. It wasn’t a truce. On the contrary, Julian’s side even gained the upper hand. They received five thousand dollars in medical expenses from Raymond’s family.’

Harrison went on unpaid leave for expelling a student without permission.

Everyone was very pleased with the outcome. They felt it was unbelievable at the same time.

“Raymond’s mother was just like a shrew. How could these two people get the money from her?”

“They even made Harrison go on unpaid leave. So who exactly are they?”
