Goodbye, My Love

Marco saw the new requests and felt a headache coming on.

The truth was, he would not hesitate to give Loraine any amount of money she asked for.

Getting a public apology from Laura, however, would be extremely difficult. This was probably the real reason behind Loraine’s withdrawal of the Lawsuit.

Seeing his friend suffer, Jimmie gave Marco a friendly and sympathetic pat on the shoulder.

“The lesson is: don’t ever offend women!”

Marco returned home, his head pounding.

Predictably, as soon as Laura saw Loraine’s requests, she flew into a rage.

“I do not agree! If Loraine wants to sue me, then she can go right ahead. I won’t apologize to that bitch!”

“Mom, have you made up your mind?” Marco asked expressionlessly.

“If we go to court, we will only lose and have to give Loraine more money.”

Laura’s heart broke when she realized she would lose more money. After all, she didn’t want to give a penny to Loraine. Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

However, she didn’t want to apologize in public either. She didn’t want to embarrass herself in front of everyone.

Laura felt losing money was better than carrying the humiliation for the rest of her life.

“Fine. How much does that woman want?”

“Ten million dollars,” Marco said indifferently.

“What?” Laura recoiled in shock. “Ten million dollars? Is she insane?

This is blackmail!”

Marco dropped another bombshell.

“When the lawsuit starts, the compensation will be doubled. No matter how much it is, you’ll have to pay it from your own pocket.”

“Why?” Laura was taken aback.

“Didn’t you agree to compensate her?” Marco asked coldly.

Laura defended herself. “Well… It’s related to the reputation of

Bryant Group. I shouldn’t be paying for it all by myself.”
