Female Novel
Chapter 1880
"The girlfriend of Mr. Mallory from Mallory Corporation drives such a shabby car? Don't try to fool me.”The man raised his finger and pointed at Marie, warning her.
"Don't worry, I'm not fooling you. That woman is very ordinary, but she lives a very good life. Percy hasalready announced their relationship during a press conference. Don't worry about anything else. You'lldefinitely get money out of her.” As Marie spoke, she was inwardly feeling jealous. 'With just Nina'smediocre looks, she was able to make Percy fall so hard for her.
'I wonder if it's because she learned how to seduce men from Bianca that she has the skills to get herhands on such a wealthy guy.'
"Alright. Let me show her the list," the man said and left the office.
Nina was still standing outside the entrance.
The man came to the entrance and passed the list to her. "This is the list I prepared yesterday. The firstthree pages list down the property damage after your brother fought with others. The last three pageslist down my other losses due to your brother's fight, such as causing a few of my customers to leavewithout paying the bills, the liquors, and the tips for the staff. Logically speaking, your brother should bethe one to take full responsibility for all these."
Nina looked at the six-page list. She took it and casually flipped through it. "He destroyed these manythings?"
"Of course. There are surveillance cameras here too. I'm not wrongfully accusing your brother." Theman took out a cigarette, placed it in his mouth, and lit it up. "I'm telling you, don't ever think thatfighting is just like what's depicted in TV shows where you just pick up a wine bottle and swing iteverywhere. He was quite drunk last night, and he was just like a mad dog. I got a few staff membersto stop him but it was to no avail. He continued to kick and punch that guy. He even destroyed a few
tables and chairs. I just bought them not too long ago, and they were all high-quality goods. Also, heindirectly injured some of my staff members too. Now, they're all taking a break due to work-relatedinjuries. I still have to pay them their salary despite them being on leave. And as for the medical fees, Idon't think it's right for you to expect me to bear all the cost myself, right?”
Nina glanced at the long list that stated the amount of compensation.
Moreover, the price tags shown for the tables and chairs, as well as the cost of other facilities, wereextraordinarily expensive. 'This bar doesn't look like it can afford these things in the first place.'
She took a glance at the interior.
The man noticed her action and stepped aside, asking, "What's wrong? Do you want to go in and havea look?"
Nina saw that it was pitch-black inside. The lights were not switched on. She shook her head and said,"No thanks. I'll need some time to go through it. I'll discuss it with you again after I'm done, okay?" "Ofcourse. Say, you're Mr. Mallory's girlfriend. You definitely won't run away from paying thecompensation. Besides, even if you do try to escape from this, I can just look for your brother or evenMr. Mallory, right?” The man smiled.
Nina frowned. 'How does he know about that?'
Even though Percy had announced their relationship during the press conference, it was not like theentire city knew about it. In the eyes of many people, she was just an ordinary person.
Even though she was puzzled, she did not say a word. She took out a name card from her pocket. "Ineed a copy of the surveillance footage. Can you please send it to the address stated here?"
The guy squinted his eyes and looked at it. He nodded. "Alright, I'll have someone send it over later.You'd better take action fast. I renovated my bar, so I'm short on cash now. After your brother causedthis huge mess, it's going to be even more troublesome to renovate it again."
"I'll get to it as soon as possible." After speaking, Nina took the list and walked to the side of the car.She got into the driver's seat and ignited the engine before driving away.
She did not immediately pay for the compensation as she had doubts. Jean had just gotten into a fight.Was it possible for him to have broken so many things?
Just from reading the items on the list, it made it seem as though Jean had destroyed the entire bar.
However, he was alone at the time. How could he have done such extensive damage...
After thinking about it, she called the company's accountant. She would leave it to the experts tohandle as it was related to finance.
She planned to use the company's resources for personal purposes and get the company's accountantto help her do the calculation.
On the other hand.
Luca looked at the time, and it was already noon.
She had looked up the relevant information and found out that a few flights would be arriving in A Cityfrom South Korea. However, according to Luke's character, he would most likely choose the earliestflight.
If he had really boarded the earliest flight, Luke would have already safely landed by now. Perhaps hemight be on his way to the company.
She got up and took a deep breath.
After a day and two nights, the injury on her waist had almost recovered. She was not afraid that thewound might bleed when she did some movements.
Seeing that there were still many documents that needed to be translated, Luca decided to headdownstairs for lunch before continuing to work.
She arrived downstairs, and when she was just about to exit the company, she saw Enoch.
Luca frowned, knowing he was here to seek trouble with her. Hence, she wanted to turn around toleave.
Enoch saw her and picked up his pace. “Luca, Luca."
He shouted twice, and it attracted most of the employees' attention. Luca noticed that the employees'gazes were directed toward her. If she were to leave now, she would look like someone who wasescaping from her creditor.
She had no choice but to head straight. She maintained a distance away from Enoch and looked at himcoldly. "What brings you here, Mr. Campbell?"
"Luca, I was in the wrong and have caused you a lot of trouble. I've thought about it. Even if we can'tbe a couple, we can still be friends and keep in touch from now on, right? I came here today just toapologize to you. Look, I even bought you a present." Enoch gave her the present.
Luca looked at the present he wanted to give her. The logo on the bag was a luxurious brand thatwhite-collar workers nowadays loved.
It seemed to be a bag.
"I accept your apology, but I don't need the gift. I still have things to do, so I'm leaving now," Luca saidas she walked away.
Enoch disregarded the gazes of others and held onto Luca.
"Your attitude just shows that you're still mad at me!" He got anxious. After thinking for a few days, hestill thought that Luca was the best.
Since Queenie had already said that she had nothing to do with Luke, he would just have to put inmore effort and get closer to her as a friend first. If he found out that she was indeed in a relationshipwith Luke, he would then expose it. Otherwise, he would pursue her!
Luca was mad and pulled her hand away. Her movement was too big, causing her wound to tear open.It made her frown.
"Mr. Campbell, if you're going to keep behaving like this, I'll call for security.”novelbin
"Luca, I just want to be friends with you. Why would you call for security?" Enoch pretended to bepuzzled. He did not think that his actions were considered harassment.
Tina came out of the elevator at this moment and saw Enoch. She barked softly, "Damn it! Why is it thisguy again? Dr. Craw is so unlucky."
"What's wrong?" A colleague looked at her.
Tina did not say a word and immediately headed straight over. She shielded Luca behind her. "Sir, doyou have an appointment?"
Enoch looked at Tina and recognized her to be the woman from before. He frowned and said in anirritated tone, "What appointment?"
