Chapter: 672
“Jeffry?”
It was her high school classmate whom she hadn't seen since graduation.
She heard that he had failed his college entrance exams and didn't pursue higher education.
“Maggie, it's really you. It's been ages. You've become even more beautiful," Jeffry commented, a smile playing on his lips.
Returning the compliment with a polite smile, Maggie said, "You're looking quite handsome yourself."
Noticing the medical records in her hands, Jeffry inquired, "Why are you at the hospital? Are you unwell?”
“No, I'm not. My brother got caught up in a bit of trouble,” Maggie replied as she handed the medical records back to the nurse.
Just as Jeffry was about to inquire further, a figure approached them.
“Bart Shear, has your family arrived? Are you going to compensate us?"
Bart's head snapped to the man standing before him, his eyes filled with apprehension.
“Johnny, this is my sister."
The figure, known as Johnny Diamond, had a crew-cut hairstyle that accentuated his muscular build and rough demeanor, giving him the appearance of a street thug.
With a quick glance, Johnny assessed Maggie from head to toe.
"So, you're Bart's sister, huh? Are you going to pay or not?"
Maggie studied Johnny in return, sensing his malevolent nature. She could tell he wasn't someone to be taken Lightly. ixcuse me, but who exactly are you?"
"Your brother harmed mine. You better cough up some compensation fast, or I won't let you off the hook!" Johnny threatened menacingly.
Maggie maintained her composure and replied, “I'm willing to cover the medical expenses, as well as offer some compensation. However, your demand of two hundred thousand is simply impossible.”
Johnny's eyes narrowed in response to her words.
“Well then, how much are you willing to pay?"
Summoning her courage, Maggie spoke with determination.
"After reviewing your brother's medical records, it seems he's in stable condition. Apart from the medical fees, we're prepared to offer three thousand as compensation."
“Three thousand? Are you out of your mind?" Johnny's voice boomed and he looked fierce.
