Chapter 802

I’ll Only Give 16 Million

After hearing what Minerva said, Sasha was this close to slamming the table.

“Minerva, Mr. Manning can put you behind bars for a few years just for what you said, don’t you know
that?!” At this point, Sasha was furious.

Hearing that, Minerva was appalled as she pouted. “So what? Did I say anything wrong? If he hadn’t
interfered in this matter, things would not be this way right now. Hmph! No way the Hamiltons can get
past this! I’m not afraid of him, so he can try and come at me!”

Frankly, Sasha didn’t have the heart to lecture her anymore. So, she figured that Minerva would only
learn it the hard way since she was so ignorant.

Meanwhile, Demi scoffed, “Well said, Minerva. With this straightforward attitude of yours, you will be a
very outstanding woman––however, nothing will change if you’re just telling us that here. Why not tell Mr.
Manning that in his face? Or, you could go get a few people to beat him up. Isn’t that more satisfying?”

At once, Helen reprimanded, “Demi, shut it! What kind of idea are you giving her? Do you think we don’t
have enough on our plate already?”

Turning her head to the side, Minerva couldn’t be bothered about what Demi said. After all, she was not
dumb. Having lived overseas for some time, she knew very well of the lawyer’s capability. For her dissing
toward the man, she’d have to face a lawsuit––not to mention beating him up.

All she did was ramble a little to save herself some pride. Truth was, she was also feeling very anxious.
Who would dare to offend a big lawyer like him?

At this moment, Chloe sobbed, “Helen, what can we do now? 3 million… Where can my family find this
much money?”





Hearing that, Demi chuckled before she asserted, “Don’t worry, Aunt Chloe, my sister agreed to pay 1.6
million for you! You guys can just add another 1.4 million to make up to that!”

Minerva was flabbergasted. “My family doesn’t own 1.4 million!”

With a shrug, Demi replied, “Then, I can’t help that. We discussed this previously. No matter how much
they ask for, our family will only give 1.6 million. Even if they’re not asking for any compensation, we’ll
still give you 1.6 million. Now that they’re asking for more, I really can’t help with that. We agreed on
that.”

At this moment, Minerva was flushed with helplessness. Initially, she wanted to take the chance to get
some money from this. Obviously, she didn’t expect that things would turn out this way. She thought that
this matter could be settled with a few hundred thousand, not an end sum of 3 whopping million.

“I… I didn’t understand the situation well back then! How would I know that you people are so cunning
and shameless enough to blackmail me?” Minerva said angrily.

Hearing that, Demi pursed her lips. “Cunning and shameless? Your words have definitely crossed the
line! Not to mention, it’s my first time seeing someone ask for money from my family when their own
family is the one in trouble! If you wanna talk about cunning and shameless, someone fits that
description better!”

At once, Minerva hit the roof. “Demi, what did you say? Are you trying to say that I’m cunning and
shameless?”

Demi replied, “I didn’t say that. However, I can’t stop you from thinking about it yourself. Well, it’s normal
for guilty people to overthink!”



Upon hearing that, Minerva was about to rage.

At this moment, Helen slammed the table before scolding them. “Enough! You girls need to stop! We’re a
family. How pathetic it is to fight like this? I’ve asked you to gather to discuss a way to settle this, and not
argue among ourselves. Do you know that a family’s harmony and unison is the most important thing?”

At this moment, Demi shrugged. “What has this got to do with me?! I have my own family now that I’m
married. So, this is no longer my business!”

Helen took a glance at Sasha.

At once, Sasha said firmly in a low tone, “Mom, I already have a lot on my plate! I said what I said. I’ll
only give 1.6 million!”
