Chapter 1310 - 1310 Greed
1310 Greed
“Dad, are you out of your mind? You actually want me to kneel and apologize to this punk?” Luther’s voice of disbelief came from the phone. “Dad, are you kidding me? This punk… he’s just an ordinary person, while I’m the scion of the esteemed Holmes family. How can I kneel and apologize to someone like him?”
Luther had never suffered such humiliation before!
Norman flew into a rage. “I told you to kneel and apologize, so kneel and apologize. Why are you talking so much nonsense? Would I harm you? I’m doing this to save your life!
“Anyway, send me your current location, and I’ll rush over right now! If you still haven’t received Mr. Gray’s forgiveness by the time I arrive, don’t blame me for being merciless!”
Norman hung up furiously.
Luther, who was standing in the square, was staring at his phone, completely dumbfounded.
He couldn’t understand his father’s request at all.
Lucas looked like an extremely ordinary young man. He was wearing shabby clothes without a single designer item on his body. Moreover, he drove a Jaguar, which was too lowly compared to the cars of the wealthy scions in DC.
More importantly, there wasn’t a prominent family in DC with the last name Gray. He was the scion of the Holmes family. Why should he kneel and apologize to this person?
Luther’s wife had heard some of their conversation and asked in horror, “Honey, what did your father just say? How… how could he make you kneel and beg this idiot for forgiveness? Is there something wrong? Your father must have mistaken him for someone else, right?”
Luther came to a sudden realization. “Yes, that’s right. Dad must have gotten the wrong person! Maybe this guy just has the same name as a big shot named Lucas Gray! How can I kneel and apologize to someone like him?”
He was subconsciously only willing to believe this reason.
Initially, Luther had thought that since the 200 million dollars had already arrived in the account, he could let Lucas leave. But after giving it some consideration, he changed his mind. Since Lucas had so easily transferred 200 million dollars, he was obviously a rich idiot.
He had to continue extorting him.
“Punk, you’re indeed a man of your word. The money has arrived.” Luther looked at Lucas with malicious intentions. “This money is compensation for the damage to my wife’s car and for injuring my bodyguards.
“But don’t forget that your father-in-law also hit my wife and my precious son. We can’t just let this slide, can we? Tell me, how much do you plan to compensate me for their mental suffering?”
Lucas couldn’t help bursting into laughter.
He had never seen anyone so greedy and thick in the head.
“You wanted me to compensate you with two hundred million dollars, but your car is only worth ten million at most, which is not even a fraction of two hundred million dollars. This amount doesn’t include the so-called mental suffering?” Lucas retorted.
“Since I’ve told you to pay up, then pay up! What nonsense are you babbling? Besides, I clearly told you to compensate me with two hundred million dollars, but you transferred it to the Holmes’ main account. Did I get a single penny of it? Since I didn’t, it means your compensation doesn’t count. Do you get it?
“If you know what’s good for you, you’d better transfer two hundred million dollars to me right now, not a single cent less. Otherwise, you’ll get it from me!” Luther said greedily.
Next to him, his wife chimed in, “That’s right! Only the money paid in our account is considered our compensation. Who knows why you transferred the money to another account. It certainly doesn’t count! Anyway, transfer two hundred million dollars to my husband’s account right now. Otherwise, we’ll immediately call people over and make sure you don’t leave this place in one piece!”
In their opinion, Lucas was clearly afraid of the Holmes since he had compliantly transferred the massive sum of 200 million dollars to them.
This man could fork out so much money so easily. Clearly, he had a lot of cash in hand. Thinking that Lucas was wealthy but stupid and not from a well-known family, they decided to take advantage of this opportunity to extort more money from him!
In total, they would be getting 400 million dollars!
At the thought that they would acquire such a huge sum of money in just one day, Luther and his wife were over the moon.
Luther and his wife immediately shocked the onlookers speechless.
They were all ordinary people, and they had never seen anyone as shameless as Luther and his wife.
After extorting Lucas of 200 million dollars, they had the cheek to say that the compensation didn’t count since the money hadn’t been transferred to their account. They were even forcing him to transfer another 200 million dollars. Luther and his wife were the most thick-skinned and shameless people the onlookers had ever seen!
The scion of the Holmes was actually so shameless, surprising many people and ruining their fantasies of the wealthy.
Of course, despite being shocked and disappointed, none of them dared to criticize the Holmes for going overboard out of consideration of their status and power.
Luther and his wife had already regarded Lucas as a fool they could extort. They even thought that Lucas would obediently transfer another massive sum of money to them again.
But unexpectedly, Lucas only stood still and said indifferently, “You want me to compensate you again? No, not a single cent!”
His words immediately angered Luther.
The man who had just transferred 200 million dollars without batting an eyelid actually said that he didn’t have a single cent left. Who would believe this? He must be taking me for a fool!
Luther shouted viciously, “Damn it! Punk, are you courting death? Let me tell you, I won’t let you off if you don’t compensate me!
“My father is Norman Holmes, the helmsman of the Holmes family. He’s on his way here with his subordinates. If you refuse to compensate me, you will be dead meat once my father comes! Do you hear me?”
“Is Norman Holmes coming? Okay, I’ll wait for him to come!”
Lucas sneered and made a call. “Bring some people to the leisure square in the center of my community. Come here as soon as possible.”
Hearing Lucas calling people over, Luther didn’t stop him. Instead, he said with disdain, “Hmph, fine, I’ll let you call people here. No matter who you call, it won’t matter to the Holmes!”
Lucas ignored him.
About seven minutes later, close to 30 black Mercedes-Benz cars charged over and stopped outside the leisure square.
Four or five burly men in black suits immediately jumped out from each car, totaling more than a hundred people. As they stood in the leisure square, their aura was astonishing, causing the surrounding crowd to hurriedly step back, for fear of being implicated.
Seeing so many people in front of them, Luther and his wife smiled smugly. “Our people are here. Punk, it seems like your end is coming!”
Lucas smiled strangely. “Is that so? Are you sure they’re your people?”
