Chapter 215
“I’m so sorry, I’m so sorry. It’s my fault for not keeping a closer eye on my son.
The child’s mother, holding him tightly, kept bowing and apologizing to the woman, her voice trembling with fear. She almost kneeled in desperation.
But the woman wouldn’t let up, her arrogance on full display, “Do you think a simple sorry fixes everything? What about my car? if you don’t have the money, why are you wandering around cousing problems for everyone?”
“Seriously?” Cimson couldn’t hold back any longer, “She’s already apologized. Isn’t that enough for you?”
Anyone who can afford a luxury car wouldn’t care about a minor repair cast, yet the woman kept humiliating them over it.
“It’s my car that got damaged, not yours. Of course, you think it’s no big deal.” The woman glared at Crimson, noticing her towering height of 5 feet 9 inches, which made her feel a bit intimidated.
When she shifted her gaze back to Flora, her expression turned even colder.
It was this
s girl! If
If she hadn’t suddenly appeared, making her panic and steer abruptly, her car wouldn’t have been damaged! “Miss, please let us go. We really can’t afford to pay such a large sum!” The child’s mother, now crying, ended up kneeling with her son in her arms
The woman just watched coldly.
As the mother was about to kneel, a pair of gentle hands helped her up.
Flora lifted her, her eyes flashing with a hint of coldness. She looked directly at the woman, speaking clearly, “At a busy intersection like this, you should have slowed down. You were obviously speeding and not paying attention. According to traffic laws, this lady owes you nothing. In fact, you owe her compensation.”
“You expect me to compensate her?” The woman looked incredulous, as if she had just heard the most ridiculous thing. “I haven’t even settled things with you, and you’re already butting in?”
The woman scanned Flora’s outfit, unable to recognize any brand, so she assumed it was cheap streetwear
Her look turned to disdain, “Do you know who I am? I’m Jenny. No one in Maple Grove dares to ask me for compensation, especially not poor people! If you hadn’t opened your mouth, maybe I would have let this go, but now, I’m going to make sure they pay up everything they have!”
Flora’s brow furrowed; the girl was incredibly stubborn and spoiled. The most willful girl she had known was Yvonne, but compared to this girl, Yvonne was nothing.
Without wasting more time arguing, she turned to the child’s mother, “Your child is scared, take him home and comfort him. Leave this to me. Don’t worry, she won’t bother you.”
The child’s mother hesitated, glanced at the woman, then at Flora’s determined face, and slowly nodded, quickly carrying her son away. Flora and Crimson walked away briskly.
The woman, now furious, blocked their path, “You think you can leave just like that? I have you know, as long as you’re in Maple Grove, there’s no one I can’t find! Do you know who my father is? I can have you both thrown its jail!”
Crimson flicked a business card into her hands, “My contact info and address are on there. Anytime you’re ready, let’s see how you plan to get me into jail.
