“Blackmail?” Jagoan quickly said as the accusation hung in the air. He retorted, “I was just passing by, not looking for trouble. Then out of nowhere, this girl plows into my car. Demanding compensation is only fair. Labeling it extortion is unjust. Don’t think you can intimidate me just because you have numbers on your side!”

The mobster swiftly drew a pistol from his waist, aiming it at Jagoan’s head. His voice was cold and unwavering, “Leave now! One more word and I’ll pull the trigger!”

“Fool!” Jagoan spat, his anger boiling over. “You really think you can shoot me out here?”

In the nick of time, Jordan swung open the passenger door of the Chevrolet, brandishing his phone. He shouted, “Mr. Jagoan, I’ve called the police!”

“Good!” Jagoan nodded, a smirk playing on his lips. He fixed a steely gaze on the mobster and challenged, “You planning to shoot me? Well, come on, take your shot!”

He gestured at his own forehead, taunting, “If you’ve got the guts, do it!”

Julia, wide-eyed and horrified, shouted, “Robert! Lower that gun!”

To Julia, even though the sum the stranger demanded was exorbitant, she recognized her culpability in the accident. It was only right to offer compensation. It was completely unjust for her father’s henchman to wield a firearm.

Seeing Jagoan’s unyielding stance, the mobster found himself at a loss.

He didn’t actually want to pull the trigger.

He just wanted to assert his mafia affiliation, to make this audacious oriental man grasp the gravity of the situation and leave.

But who would have anticipated this level of defiance?
