Howard frowned, glancing at Angela’s smile with a sense of unease. His words stumbled a bit. “What do you

want?‘

Angela snorted, “Don’t worry, I’m not as shameless as you. My request is simple and within your capabilities.”

Ethan nervously wiped the sweat from his forehead and quickly interjected. “Mrs. Lawson, please proceed.”

“Firstly, you need to cover the medical expenses. The rest of us are fine, just a bit shaken, but Sarah was seriously hurt. She won’t be able to work during her recovery, so the Sims Family should take responsibility,” Angela stated calmly.

Ethan nodded. “Of course.”

“Then…” Angela paused before continuing, “If Sarah wishes to continue working at the club, you must not take the opportunity to retaliate against her or discriminate against her. If I find anything inappropriate…”

“Of course.” Ethan hastily agreed before Angela could finish. “That’s only fair. It’s all because of this unfilial son of mine who caused all this trouble.”

It was just a job. If they didn’t hire Sarah, they would find someone else. These requests were not unreasonable.

Ethan suddenly realized that Mrs. Lawson was indeed young, kind, and very reasonable in her approach, standing her ground even when justified. If not for Jonathan’s protection, she might have faced more trouble.

Angela was pleased with Ethan’s response. But when she glanced at Howard, impatience flickered in her eyes.

Her expression darkened as she continued, “Lastly, I hope Mr. Howard sincerely apologizes to me and my friends at the club in front of his friends. Especially…”

“Sarah.”

Angela emphasized the name.

Everything happened because Howard disrespected Sarah and tried to harass her.

Ethan didn’t immediately agree to this request.

He looked at his son. Howard was agitated. “No. If you want money, just say it directly. If it’s not enough, we can take more. Why bother with all this?”

Will I still have a place in society if I do this?

Apologizing to Angela is trivial. No one will dare mock me at the Sanders Mansion or the club, even if I

But what about Sarah!

Aside from her looks, what is her background?

No.

I would rather spend more money than lose face like this.

At this moment, Violet also spoke up to support her son, “Exactly. Mrs. Lawson, you can inquire about… the girl’s compensation. Any amount is acceptable. As for a public apology, let’s forget about it.”

Angela’s expression darkened, showing some displeasure.

At this moment, Jonathan coldly snorted, furrowing his brows. “Do you think the Sims Family has too much money?”

His tone was light, but it weighed heavily on Ethan.

Ethan hurriedly clarified, “No. Mr. Lawson, you misunderstand. We…”

“Or maybe Mrs. Sims has a different perspective,” Angela interjected with a hint of coldness. “But I wonder how much the Sims Family is willing to offer?”

Violet was taken aback, instinctively seeking confirmation from Jonathan to decipher Angela’s sincerity or sarcasm.

Jonathan raised an eyebrow, remaining silent.

Angela had signaled to him earlier, and he understood her intentions.

However, Angela had never been overly concerned about money.

Why is she suddenly relenting?

What is she planning?

But, regardless of Angela’s wishes, he would support her unconditionally.

With this in mind, Jonathan’s expression darkened again, masking his emotions.

Angela looked at Ethan pleasantly and asked, “I wonder how much the Sims Family truly values their apology?”

Violet’s eyes flickered as she stated a figure directly.

Angela’s expression turned cold, and she spoke with some displeasure. “It appears that Howard’s apology is only worth this much. Well, let him apologize. It will bring closure to everyone.”

Ethan quickly rectified, “No. The fault lies with our son. Mrs. Lawson, please do not be upset.

and your friends. Regardless of the This time, our son crossed a line, causing harm to you compensation amount, we are willing to provide it.”

Angela nodded, looking at him with a happy expression. “Indeed. When one makes a mistake, they naturally have to pay the price. If Mr. Sims‘ son is willing to sacrifice his dignity for this sum of money, he does not need to pay naturally. But if not, it’s only fair to buy back his dignity with money.”

Ethan nodded in agreement.

After some consideration, he gritted his teeth and started a figure.

He winced at the sum.

Although the Sims Family was affluent, it was still a substantial amount tek part with.

She looked at Ethan with a smile, her eyes full of amusement. Despite giving birth to an unsuccessful son, he was still a figure to be reckoned with. However, she wasn’t trying to

extort money from the Sims Fay. She just wanted to teach them a lesson.

Angela pressed down on the amount, saying leisurely, “I’ll only take what my friends deserve. I won’t take a single extra penny.”

Ethan felt relieved, acknowledging Angela’s fairness.

At that moment, he comprehended why Jonathan had chosen to marry such an unconventional woman.

After the Sims Family left, Angela gazed at Jonathan with a hint of curiosity, feeling slightly. uneasy. “Why are you looking at nie like that?”

Jonathan smiled warmly. “You didn’t seek an apology from Howard. You simply wanted them to compensate. Is it for Sarah?”

Angela looked at him, admiration evident on her face. “How did you know?

Jonathan slowly raised the corner of his lips, appearing pleased. “For you, money isn’t important, especially when it comes in this way. You wouldn’t take it.”

“Jessica and Cassie were not severely injured and did not need money. If it were them, they would likely prefer to tarnish Howard rather than accept the comp Jonathan’s reasoning was clear and logical. “You mentioned earlier that Sarah assisted you.

And since she works at the club, it indicates she’s short of money and was the most severely injured.”

Angela nodded in agreement, expressing admiration. “Jonathan, you truly have a keen insight. I indeed requested conipensation for Sarah, as her father is unwell and she may be struggling financially.”

A substantial sum of money was undeniably more practical than Howard’s superficial apology

Furthermore, this wasn’t extortion. It was rightfully claimed compensation for mental anguish.

She believed that Sarah wouldn’t refuse.

Indeed, Sarah graciously accepted, expressing heartfelt gratitude toward Angela.

She would not take money that was not rightfully hers, such as borrowing from lames or Yusof, as she had her dignity.

However, she would not feign refusal for money that was rightfully owed to her.

Recognizing Angela’s genuine desire to assist her and not needing money, she hypocritically offered to share the money with Angela.

Sarah stated solemnly, “I may not be able to repay you now. If you ever need me, I will be there.”

This was her promise.

She made this vow because she understood that Angela was unlike Fanny, who lacked

boundaries.

Angela’s willingness to help her despite the risks made her recognize Angela as a compassionate individual.

After bidding farewell, they each departed.

Unbeknownst to them, not far away. Fanny and Christopher were enjoying a date,

They sat by the window on the second floor of the tea house.

From there, they could see Riverdon’s famous Lake Cladra. Under the sunlight, the lake’s surface ripples slightly, shining with golden light, and the location is prime real estate, hence

the name.

There were handsome men and beautiful women rowing on the lake. Although they couldn’t see clearly from afar, Christopher could sense the sweetness between those young couples.

Once, he and Fanny also had such moments.

“Christopher.” Fanny’s gentle voice came. “What’s wrong with you today? Why do troubled? Is there something bothering you?” Property © NôvelDrama.Org.

you

look so

Christopher snapped out of his reverie and glanced at Fanny before turning away. “Nothing.”

Fanny’s expression froze.

Christopher had always been warm toward her, but his attitude just now was noticeably colder.

Fanny felt a little sad in her heart. Her eyes grew misty. “Christopher, do you also despise me now? But I’m fine now. It’s all rumors. I’m innocent.”

Listening to Fanny’s words, Christopher felt very uncomfortable but couldn’onfide his dilemma to others.

If he hadn’t promised to break off the engagement, how could his father have helped Fanny?

Since his father showed him the result and for Fanny’s sake, he had to break off the engagement. As his father said, if he could make Fanny clear of any wrongdoing, he could also make her sink into the mud.

He had no choice but to obey his father’s words until he had enough power.

He looked serious, his expression very solemn. “Fanny, we…”

His throat was a little dry, and he simply said the rest of the words. “Let’s… break off the engagement.”

“What?”

It was as if a thunderbolt exploded in Fanny’s mind.

Her mind went blank at that moment, and tears kept falling uncontrollably.

These were real tears, not an act to gain sympathy,

Fanny asked in disbelief, “What did you say? Cancel the engagement?”

As the words left his mouth, Christopher felt as if a thousand–pound burden had been lifted from his shoulders.

He nodded, his expression serious. “Yes.”

After speaking, he stood up, unwilling to linger any longer.

He couldn’t bear to see Fanny cry. He was afraid he might soften. Everything he was doing now was for Fanny’s good. If he stayed any longer, he might ruin everything.

He had no choice but to let Fanny be sad.

Sadness would eventually pass, but her future life might be bleak if she fell into a quagmire.

But Fanny wasn’t going to let him go that easily.

She stood before Christopher, her eyes red like a rabbit’s, her demeanor no longer as fragile as before. She looked at him with resentment. “Give me a reason.”

Christopher moved his lips but said nothing, choosing to leave all the same.
