Female Novel
Chapter 207
Aaron was so audacious. And he was really arrogant. Catherine had encountered many arrogantpeople in her life. And she was eager to see how long Aaron could maintain his arrogance.
Catherine took a slow step forward. With her leather boots, she casually stamped on the bank cardAaron had thrown on the ground. Catherine thought inwardly, “He is arrogant, huh?
“Let’s see who can be more arrogant. than me.” Aaron gave Catherine a sidelong glance and felt heroverpowering presence. Catherine’s fiery yet cold disposition piqued his interest.
“What? One million dollars isn’t enough? Darling, your appetite is quite something. One million dollarsis more than enough to buy three of your clunker. I’m offering three times the compensation. Youshould be satisfied.”
Catherine chuckled coldly. Her voice was crisp and crystal clear amidst the crowd. Catherine’s eyesflickered. Her domineering and mocking gaze fell upon Aaron. Her voice was cold and scornful. “Hey,this car doesn’t have a small window on the door.”
When she spoke, everyone present was momentarily stunned. Some widened their eyes inastonishment, while others were utterly bewildered.
Kim slowly rotated his eyes, which were starting to ache from staring. He exclaimed, “Oh my God!There is no small window on the door.”
Audrey, who was standing on the side, was utterly perplexed. “What do you mean by ‘no small windowon the door ? What are you guys talking about? Why don’t I understand?”
Kim looked at Audrey with disdain. ” Audrey, your family, the Swanns, is one of Casier’s top fourwealthy families. How can you not know this? It’s Maybach that doesn’t have a small window on thedoor. Do you understand?”
Audrey was unfazed by the disdain. She responded confidently, “How am I supposed to know all this?Although the Swanns are rich, no one ever told me I had to know about cars.”
Kim realized he couldn’t communicate with Audrey. He silently chose to give up. At the same time,Aaron was stunned when he heard that.
Among Aaron’s group, there were indeed some car enthusiasts. After closely inspecting Catherine’scar, one of them muttered to Aaron uncomfortably, “Mr. Blaton, it really is a Maybach. I checked thelimited edition emblem on the tail.”novelbin
Maybach was an ultra-luxury car series and belonged to the top tier of luxury cars. Because its emblemwas similar to the emblem of the Mercedes, it was often mistaken for an older-model Mercedes.
The simplest and easiest way to distinguish between the two series of cars was to look at the smallwindow on the rear door.
A small window on the door indicated a Mercedes S-class car, while the absence of a small window onthe door indicated the top-of-the-line luxury car, the Maybach. Maybach was synonymous withunderstated elegance. It was the preferred car for top-level executives.
Catherine crossed her arms. She adopted a languid posture as she stood there. She looked at Aaroncoldly. Aaron’s expression changed slightly after he confirmed this information. His face darkened.Nevertheless, he feigned composure as he looked at Catherine. “Not bad.
You’re driving your dad’s car, huh? You take advantage of me not knowing the market value. This car isworth four or five million dollars. I’m offering three million dollars. That should be enough.
As he spoke, Aaron was preparing to take out the money from his pocket. Though it pained him deeply,Aaron had to appear nonchalant at this moment. He treated it as if he were requesting an advancefrom his father for a new car.
Catherine stared at him with her cold eyes. She raised her hand and pointed her finger directly atAaron’s forehead.
“Triple compensation. Mr. Blaton, you sounded so confident earlier. Can’t you afford it?”
Aaron was extremely awkward. He didn’t expect Catherine to ask for that. He was both embarrassedand irritated. But he maintained a pretense of calm as he looked at Catherine.
“What? You’re pushing it with that request. Let me tell you. Your car is probably not worth more thanone million dollars on the second-hand market.”
Upon hearing about the commotion at the entrance, Zachary inquired and rushed over. Seeing thatAaron was causing trouble again, Zachary couldn’t help but frown and sternly scolded him.
“Aaron, what’s the matter with you? Didn’t I tell you to show some respect to Miss Swann?”
Before Aaron could respond, Catherine spoke up, “Zachary, Mr. Blaton hit my car. He said he wouldpay triple compensation. Can you estimate Mr. Blaton’s payment?”
After realizing the situation, Zachary took a closer look at Catherine’s car and frowned. He recalled thatthere were no more than three of these cars in the entire country, and one of them was owned byBranden.
Aaron was really audacious. He got into big trouble this time. Zachary suppressed his desire to hitAaron. He scolded Aaron furiously, You brat! You’ve really done it this time. You’d better call your fatherand ask him to help with this.”
Aaron had an indignant look on his face. He felt that Zachary lacked courage. He resented Zachary forit.
“Zachary, why bother my dad with such a trivial matter? If three million dollars isn’t enough, I’ll give herfive million dollars. Consider it as if I had a rendezvous with an upscale whore.”
Zachary recognized Aaron was extremely stupid. He quickly distanced himself from the Blatons. Withsomeone as foolish as Aaron, the Blatons would get into big trouble.
“Aaron, you really don’t understand anything. This is a top-of-the-line Maybach, with a market pricestarting at a minimum of 30 million dollars.
Add in the top-of-the-line features inside, and if you triple the compensation, you should pay at least100 million dollars. Can you handle that?”
Aaron exclaimed, “What?
“100 million dollars?”
Aaron gaped at Zachary in shock. Then, he turned to look at Catherine with surprise. He finallyunderstood why Catherine had remained calm throughout and looked at him as if he were a fool.
Zachary couldn’t possibly be lying at a time like this, so the car’s actual value might indeed exceed 30million dollars, and tripling that meant 100 million dollars.
It was 100 million dollars. Aaron couldn’t possibly come up with that much money. While the Blatonswere wealthy, Aaron was just the heir of the Blatons. He had not yet inherited the family fortune.
Zachary realized the gravity of the situation and promptly contacted Aaron’s father. Ten minutes later,Jameson Blaton, Aaron’s father, arrived at the scene.
Zachary subtly reminded Jameson of Catherine’s relationship with the Duncans. Then, Jamesonimmediately approached Catherine and greeted her. He said, “Miss Swann, it’s a pleasure to meet
you.”
Catherine glanced at him and didn’t respond. She didn’t want to waste her time acknowledgingeveryone who approached her. Jameson felt somewhat embarrassed. But he kept a straight face as hehad his secretary hand over a check.
“Miss Swann, here is 10 million dollars. Consider it compensation on behalf of my son. Let’s maintain agood relationship in the future.”
Zachary remained by the side and watched closely. When he saw that Jameson had offered only 10million dollars, he had a bad feeling about it.
Catherine glanced at the elderly man standing opposite her coldly. She thought inwardly, “He and hisson are both bastards.”
Catherine took the check from Jameson’s secretary and held it in her hand. She casually tapped it.Jameson’s smile deepened. He was relieved that he hadn’t listened to Zachary. Otherwise, he mighthave lost 80 to 90 million dollars.
No one’s money came from thin air, and his family was not so wealthy. At this moment, Jameson wascelebrating his decision. But in the next moment, the smile froze on his face.
Because Catherine tore the ten-million -dollar check into pieces right in front of Jameson with a smile.Her attitude was incredibly relaxed, which gave the impression of playfulness. However, it sent chillsdown people’s spines. Catherine spoke in a casual tone, but her words were cold and menacing.
“I don’t want your money…”
Jameson’s face darkened. Being humiliated by a young girl in public was embarrassing. He wonderedhow he would save his reputation after this.
He gritted his teeth and warned in a low voice, “Miss Swann, what do you want then?” Catherine smiledslightly. She spoke with an air of nonchalance and delivered the ruthless words.
She said, “In the black market, 10 million dollars can buy a life. “Your son owes me 100 million dollars.I’ll take two of his legs. Is that unreasonable?”
Catherine wore a smile on her stunning face. Her beautiful eyes were filled with a bloodthirsty killingintent, which sent shivers down spines.
It was 50 million dollars for each leg. Catherine was really impressive.
