Attracted By My Ex-wife

Chapter 444 Half A Billion Dollars For Compensation

"Hey lady! What do you think you are doing? Stop looking! If you persist on doing it, I'll beat you up!" The man glared at her, his voice filled with rage.

The nurse's body stiffened at his accusation. She wanted to retort back but she simply bit her lip and held back her anger.

Watching his son's misbehavior, the old man sighed and begged, "Abel, stop picking a fight. Also, it's quite late. They won't come again. How about you go back and have some rest? I'll call you when they come, okay?"

Abel spat at his father angrily. After hesitating for a moment, he glanced and caught sight of his friends standing outside. He strode towards the door.

The old man gave a sigh of relief and closed his eyes, relishing the prospect of rest.

The nurse frowned and looked at the old man, filling up with sympathy. From what she witnessed, she deciphered Abel was a ruthless man. She couldn't help but wonder if this so called son had any role in this man's injury.

After all, Abel seemed like the kind of guy who wouldn't mind beating up his own father.

"Sir, do you agree with Abel's suggestion to ask ten million dollars as a form of compensation from Anne and Kevin?" the nurse asked while clearing away the bowls and chopsticks after the old man finished eating.

In the era of Internet, nobody had difficulty placing who Anne and Kevin were.

Kevin was known as a young and rich man with a very promising future.

Ten million dollars were nothing to Kevin. 'No matter how rich he is, I don't think he will be happy about the prospect of spending such a huge fortune for no reason, ' the nurse mused.

The old man frowned and lowered his eyes, not giving her a reply.

The nurse sighed and packed up all her stuff. She then turned around to leave. After that, she called Anne and narrated the conversation she had overheard.

After expressing her thanks, Anne hung up the phone and sneered.

"Ten million? Doesn't this sound familiar?" Anne said sarcastically.

Kevin raised his eyebrows and nodded in agreement.

"Abel said that if we don't show up tomorrow, he would call the police to arrest us. He also said that if the media hears about this, our name would be damaged. In an instant, our group would lose its reputation and thousands of people would throw abuse at us. It is a threat!" Sitting in front of the dressing mirror, Anne applied the moisturizer and said angrily, "How dare he threaten us? It had nothing to do with us.

The old man bumped into us but it was not our fault. In spite of this, we still helped him because he looked so painful.

We paid the medical fees and took care of him. And now, this Abel appears out of nowhere, claiming to be his son. And he has the audacity to ask for such a huge amount!"

As Anne spoke, she became even angrier. "If I am not wrong, they should be paying money for inconveniencing us!"
