“Mom, what do we do?”
“Mom, do something!”
“Why don’t we just pay them off?”
“It’s only just over thirty million. That’s better than going bankrupt.”
Belle and Melody cried out of panic, shaking Peony’s arm as their eyes turned red.
If the Murphy family went bankrupt, their villas, luxury cars, fancy coats, and jewelry would all disappear.
They used to show off on Facebook. There was no telling how their friends would make fun of them if they no longer had any money.
Penny gave up on the spot and kept a humble posture. “Lisa, isn’t thirty-six million too much?”
.
Lisa smiled faintly. “Forty million, then.”
“Huh? Forty million?”
“Fifty million!”
“No.”
“Sixty million!”
“Alright, alright, alright. Sixty million, then!” Peony nearly passed out. Sixty million was a large chunk of money for the Murphy family, but it would not make them go bankrupt.
Once the Murphy Property Development Group went bankrupt, they would lose everything.
Lisa’s friends spoke with amusement, “Lisa, don’t you think they’re cheapskates?
“They were unwilling to pay thirty-six million and had to talk back, but now they’re happy to pay sixty million.”
Suddenly, a cold voice rang out. “You can forget about getting any money. Apologize to my wife right now!”
Lisa raised her eyebrows and looked at Clarence playfully. “Is he one of you?
“You want me to apologize? Sure.
“One hundred million dollars!”
Peony and the rest went ballistic when they heard that ‘one hundred million dollars’.
Peony roared, “Clarence, have you lost your mind? Who told you to talk? Do you think things are not chaotic enough already?”
Belle trembled with anger. “What are you talking about, you little jerk? Are you trying to bring the Murphy family down?”
Melody glared at Clarence. “What have we done to you to make you ruin things at a point like this? Can’t you shut up?”
Armstrong snapped, “Nobody thinks you’re dumb if you don’t speak. It’s one hundred million we’re talking about! Do you know how much money one hundred million is? Your salary is three thousand dollars a month, so this is three thousand years’ worth of your salary!”
George had a headache. “Why did you boast?
“What do you have to do with this?”
Kayse’s face was grim. “You’re so f*cking single-minded!
“Do you know who you’re talking to?”
The ward was in chaos. Instead of blaming Lisa, they put all the blame on Clarence.
As if she was merely watching dogs fight, Lisa folded her arms. “Go on. Go on quarreling. You have twenty-five minutes left to wire one hundred million into this card.”
Clarence looked at Lisa coldly. “I told you to apologize to my wife. Did you not hear me?”
“Haha!” Lisa laughed in disdain, ignoring Clarence.
“How dare you laugh?”
Clarence lunged forward, raised his hand, and slapped her.
Slap... “Who do you think you are? How dare you beat up my wife? I think you have a death wish!”
Slap... “You’re so great. Shut out the Murphy family? Why don’t you show me?”
Slap... “How dare you ask for one hundred million dollars? Would you dare to take it if I gave it to you?”
Slap... “You’re nothing but a pimp and a f*cking jester! You would’ve been the lowest of the low in ancient times. Have you gotten better than us now?”
Slap... “I haven’t thought about what to say for this slap, but that won’t stop me from slapping you again!”
Slap...
Clarence slapped Lisa a dozen times, sending her to the ground with her hair in a mess.
“How dare you hit Lisa?
“We’ll fight you back.”
The six friends Lisa had brought with her rushed toward Clarence angrily.
Clarence had no compassion for the women. He started kicking. “How dare you kick my wife?
“Who are you to touch my wife?
“You’re just a group of b*tches! What celebrities? Aren’t you just high-class prostitutes?”
Clarence kicked them a dozen times until they were all on the floor. There was wailing from the ward.
Clarence had broken the hands of several of them.
Peony and the rest were stunned. They were not expecting Clarence to be so violent.
“I’ll give you one last chance to apologize to my wife.” Clarence stood still, a frosty expression on his face.
Lisa was still stubborn. “You want me to apologize? No...”
Before Lisa could finish, Clarence kicked her, making the implant in Lisa’s nose sink. Even her face went flat.
“Apologize!” Clarence’s voice was cold.
Lisa trembled with pain. The social connections she was so proud of had not seemed to work with Clarence.
“I’m sorry. I... I was wrong,” Lisa apologized to Miranda, who was in the hospital bed. Secretly, she vowed to torture Clarence whenever she could get the chance.
“What about you guys?” Clarence did not care about what Lisa was thinking.
The other six starlets apologized to Miranda.
Clarence pointed to the ward door. “F*ck off.”
Lisa awkwardly left with everyone. She happened to run into William, who had come to the hospital, at the ward door. “Lisa, what’s happened to all of you?”
Lisa ignored William and left in a hurry.
William walked into the ward and sensed something wrong with the atmosphere. “What happened?”
Peony trembled with anger. She was pale. “Clarence, look what you’ve done. You even slapped Lisa.”
Melody was ghastly pale. “It’s over! It’s over. The Murphy family is over.”
Belle picked up a vase, wanting to throw it at Clarence. “Clarence, are you trying to ruin the Murphy family? What six thousand was once able to solve can’t even be solved with one hundred million now.”
Clarence glanced coldly at her. Belle took a step back, afraid to throw the vase now.
“One hundred million? What’s happened?” William looked surprised.
Kaysen’s face was as calm as still water as he explained what had just happened.
William was a little dumbfounded too. “It’s... It’s going to be tricky. Lisa already has many connections in Port Island and has come here in recent years to develop her career.
“Her connections span Port Island, Mediterranean City, and Beth City. I’m afraid the Murphy family is in danger if Lisa’s going after you.”
Peony went up and grabbed William’s arm. “My good son-in-law, you have to help me. If you help the Murphy family through this crisis, I’ll make sure Miranda divorces that loser.”
Peony was so shameless that she called William her good son-in-law.
“Mom! What are you talking about?” Miranda gritted her teeth.
Clarence had such an impulsive thing for her, after all.
Peony roared, “It’s all because of you, you jinx!
“How would this have happened without you?
“If I had known, I wouldn’t have taken you... given birth to you.”
“Shut up!” bellowed Armstrong.
Peony immediately shut up when she realized her blunder. “William, you have to help the Murphy family.”
“Don’t worry, Aunt Peony. I’ll try my best.” William patted Peony on the arm.
Peony suddenly looked up again. She darted toward Clarence and slapped his face. “What are you still doing here? Get the f*ck out. F*ck off. I don’t want to have to see you for another second.”
