Chapter 519: As Bumet handed over the piece of paper, a chill swept across Silver Fox's face. She halted mid-sentence, instinctively reaching out to take the paper from him.
Before she could glimpse its contents, Bumet abruptly swung open the car door, catching her off guard and pushing her several steps back. Feeling a bit dizzy already, she stumbled neatly into the roadside flower bed.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSilver Fox was incensed by his ungentlemanly conduct. Her smile vanished, replaced by accusatory eyes fixed on Bumet's retreating figure. But Bumet didn't spare her a glance, seemingly oblivious to any breach of decorum. He strode silently towards the Daniels Group building, unwavering.
Feeling ignored and irritated, Silver Fox stared at his departing form, silently cursing him under her breath. "Damn, this insufferable man!" After venting her frustration, she lifted the paper in her hand to read Bumet's message. When she read it, her eyes widened in disbelief and anger. Marissa had been right. He was demanding 30 million in compensation from her-20 million for car repairs and 10 million for emotional damages.
Thankfully, he hadn't included lost income, which could have escalated the sum to 60 million or even beyond. Despite Bumet's omission of lost income, Silver Fox's anger simmered intensely. Looking at his composed demeanor and shamelessly arrogant expression, no one would believe he had endured emotional turmoil! If he hadn't sustained any emotional wounds, why was he seeking recompense for emotional damages? Clearly, he was deliberately making things difficult for her! gV In o vlshosts great fiction She had already humbled herself to appease him, yet he showed no mercy. Did he think she was someone to mess with? With this thought, Silver Fox chased after Bumet. When she caught up to him, she grasped his sleeve.
A mere tug on his sleeve made Bumet react as if struck by lightning. He instantly yanked his arm back, halted, and turned to look at her with a gaze as cold as ice. It was as if his eyes were saying, "Touchagain, and I'll throttle you right here!" Initially cowed by his frosty demeanor, Silver Fox quickly becincensed. "Hey, you ugly monster, what's with the attitude?" At her words, Bumet's icy expression faltered. His brows knitted together, and surprise flickered in his cold eyes. The driver who had been trailing them was equally shocked, his mouth twitching slightly in disbelief. This lady truly had a way with words.
Just moments ago, she praised Mr. Hoffman for his stunning looks to lower the compensation. Now, in a fit of anger, she called him an ugly monster.
Praising Bumet's stunning looks was spot-on-his looks deserved that compliment. But calling him an ugly monster? That was just plain absurd. Even if all the ugly monsters in the world disappeared, Bumet wouldn't even make the list! Silver Fox, however, was oblivious to the driver's reaction. She kept mocking Bumet with zeal. "Do you honestly think I want to touch you? If it weren't for your outrageous demands, who would even bother chasing after you? Just being near you makesfeel like I'm catching a plague!" Bumet was rendered speechless. He couldn't fathom why Silver Fox was so loud and indignant. The way she was acting, you'd think the car accident was entirely his fault.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSince when did the debtor chase the creditor and hurl insults? He wanted to ask her what exactly was outrageous about his compensation terms.
He had only asked for the bare minimum to cover repair costs and a bit of emotional compensation, not even for lost income. Yet, she was still dissatisfied. If he had demanded compensation for lost income, she would be in debt for the rest of her life; his twas invaluable! However, Bumet bit his tongue, deeming it beneath him to ask such a trivial question, let alone waste any more twith her. He then glanced at the driver. The driver caught the signal immediately and approached Silver Fox.
"Miss, you can discuss the compensation matters with me."
Silver Fox turned to the driver.
"Discuss with you? Can you waive the el amount written on this paper?" The driver pursed his lips and shook his head. "No."
"Then there's nothing to discuss!" m Silver Fox firmly refused the driver. Then she turned to Bumet, saying, "I'll accept the 20 million for car repairs, but not a single penny for emotional damages!"
She expected Bumet to reply, but he merely shot her an impatient glare before turning, on his heel and NO walking away. The message was unmistakable: brace yourself for a lawsuit! Silver Fox grew anxious and shouted after him, "Damn you, Dummy!"
