Chapter 178 I Will Bankrupt You
Jared had initially wanted to settle the matter peacefully even though it was the other party’s fault for
overtaking his car at the gate of a neighborhood. However, he didn’t expect her to lay into him right after
she got out of the car. That had his temper spiking at once.
“You were the one who abruptly dashed in front of my car! So, why are you blaming me for hitting your
car?” Jared demanded.
“Why? Well, you shouldn’t have blocked my path when you’re only driving a rickety Ford! Is this a place
for someone like you?” The woman eyed him with contempt before she roared at the security guards,
“Are the lot of you doing your job? How could you allow such a car into the neighborhood? This is just
too embarrassing for the neighborhood and the property owners!”
The few security guards merely looked at the arrogant woman, not daring to riposte her despite the fury
blazing within them. They were only security guards at the end of the day, so they couldn’t afford to
offend her.

Remembering that he was in a rush to train, however, he didn’t want to waste his time there. Thus, he
snapped, “Name your figure. How much do you want? I don’t have the time to bicker with you here!”
When the woman noticed his impatience, she immediately raised her voice several decibels and
proclaimed, “Do you know how much my car costs? It costs over two million! I won’t be able to repair the
damage from your hit without a hundred to two hundred grand! You wouldn’t be able to compensate me
even if you were to give me your car!”
“Cut the crap and just name your price!” Jared’s brows knitted together.
“How dare you say that? Do you believe that I’ll…”
While saying that, the woman raised her hand to strike Jared across the face. However, Jared caught her
hand and slapped her hard instead.
The woman’s sunglasses went flying, and even the straw hat on her head fell off. That had her freezing
for a moment.
Never in her wildest dreams had she ever expected Jared to have the guts to get physical with her. How
dare he make a move against me when he’s just driving a Ford?
“Great, just great! How dare you hit me, kid? I swear by all that’s holy that I’m going to kill you today!”
As she screeched, she whipped out her phone and made a call.
The security guards inwardly rejoiced when Jared struck the woman, but they were also aware that the
matter had gotten serious when things had turned physical. One of them quickly rushed away to get the
property manager.
After making her call, the woman glared at Jared hotly. “Just you wait, kid! My husband will be coming to
kill you in a while!”
“I don’t have time to waste with you here. If you don’t move your car, I’m going to plow into it!”
Jared didn’t want to continue arguing with her. He hadn’t been training regularly these few days, so he
wished to make the most of his time.
“You dare plow into my car? Go ahead if you have the guts to do so! Just see whether I’ll bankrupt you!”
the woman challenged.
She didn’t believe that he truly dared to do so.

Seeing her obstinacy, Jared knew that it was no use speaking further. Hence, he got into his car and
geared up to ram into the Maserati ahead.
But at just that precise moment, Zayne and the others were brought in by a sales representative to view
the property.
“Jared?” Maria exclaimed in astonishment the second she caught sight of the man.
After all, not anyone could be there. People who had neither wealth nor influence like Jared seldom
visited such a place, so she wondered why he was there.
When Jared saw that it was Maria, Zayne, and Lydia, he casually inquired, “Why are you guys here?”
“You’re asking us that? Shouldn’t it be the other way round? We’re here to buy a house! Why are you
here?” Zayne regarded him with utter disdain before glancing at his car that had collided with the
Maserati ahead. All at once, he gloatingly commented, “Jared, your driving skills are really lacking. How
did you crash into the car ahead? Was it because you were trying to barge in behind the car?”a
