Chapter 477
Married at First Sight
Chapter 477 Chelsea was glared at by her father and did not dare speak, but she desperately shot a look at her brother Hank received his sisterâs plea for help. He cleared his throat and said to Serenity, âSerenity. just let my sister take Matthew to apologize and leave it at that. Iâm after all Sonnyâs father and one of his guardians, so I think I have the right to decide.â
Serenity said sarcastically, âOh, so you do remember that youâre Sonnyâs father? If other childrenâs fathers knew their son got bullied, they would drag a forty-meter-long broadsword to get even with the perpetrator with no second thoughts.
âYouâre his father, but you want to settle the matter instead. Are you closer to your nephew than your own son?â
Serenity then said to George, âSonny was rescued in the hospital and had a fullâbody examination which cost several thousand. Iâve brought the bill from the hospital so you wonât think Iâm ripping you off.
âI came here today for two reasons. Firstly, I want you to bring your son to apologize and promise us that he wonât approach Sonny again in the future. The second is the issue of compensation. Sonnvas traumatized. Thereâs no telling how much it will cost to heal his mental trauma.
âThatâs an unknown amount of money. Either way, you have to compensate for the medical expenses from yesterday, and if Sonny needs subsequent treatment, youâll be the ones footing the bill as well.
We wonât ask much for supplements or compensation for mental damages. Including yesterdayâs medical bill, please just compensate Sonny for fifty thousand for the time being.â
Chelsea jumped at that. âWhy donât you just go rob a bank? Sonny is still so young. Why would he need supplements and compensation for mental damages? Matthew was beaten too. Why donât you pay us for that?â
Serenity retorted, âWho was the one who beat your son?â
Chelsea was speechless âTell the person who beat your son to compensate you. In any case, we never touched your son.â
Chelsea was again at a loss for words After a moment, she said resentfully, âYouâre deliberately extorting us because my brother is about to divorce your sister. You want the money to give to your sister, right?
âSonny is a two-year-old child. Even if he was frightened, heâll be fine if you just placate and soothe him. Why would he need followâup treatments? Itâs not like he was scared silly.â
Serenity did not want to talk to someone like Chelsea and said coldly, âCan someone else step in for negotiations?â
She did not treat Chelsea as a human being.
Chelsea was hopping mad.
Grandma May did not treat her as a human being, and Serenity had also scolded her for not being a human.
At that moment, officers from the police station came in.
It was Zachary who called them over to be witnesses.
After all, they reported to the police yesterday, but the matter had not been dealt with yet.
Under the officersâ mediation and witness, both sides signed an agreement. If Sonny required treatment later, all costs would be borne by the Repton family. The Reptons were also required to bring Matthew to apologize inâperson to Sonny, and they had to be stricter in disciplining their child in the future.
The compensation that the Hunts demanded from the Reptons remained unchanged. Serenity asked for fifty thousand, so they had to pay fifty thousand. As for the Repton familyâs losses, Mr. Brown was willing to compensate them on Serenityâs behalf.
Although George ached for the money he was about to lose, he got ready to transfer the fifty thousand to Serenity in order to settle the matter.
âEven if youâre going to transfer money, you shouldnât be transferring it to Serenity since sheâs not Sonnyâs guardian. Sonnyâs father is still here. Just transfer the money to Hank instead.â
Chelsea thought of transferring the money to her brother. That way, he could return the money to her after everyone left.
âGive it to Serenity.â
Mr. Brown snapped and asked his sonâinâlaw to transfer the money to Serenity. He said, Serenity is Sonnyâs aunt. Ever since Sonny was born, Serenity endured all sorts of hardships to raise him up. I believe sheâs completely devoted to his wellâbeing. She wonât take away this fifty thousand.â
âL He glared at his daughter again. Chelsea was afraid her father would slap her again and did not dare to even squeak.
Under the police officersâ eyes, George got Serenityâs bank account and transferred fifty thousand with a note that it was to compensate Sonny.
Serenity accepted the money without hesitation.
Then, she transferred the fifty grand to her sister.
Mr. Brown deliberately stood beside Serenity and watched her movements.
