---- Chapter 2243 Andrew''s expression chilled suddenly, and Carson clutched his stinging cheek, furious but afraid to speak. He had nearly bitten his own mrs to pieces. No matter what, he was still the head of his family, and the Schwartz family had their pride to maintain. Yet, Andrew had struck him without hesitation. This was inly an act of trampling the Schwartz family''s dignity into the dirt. He thought bitterly, ''''ll remember this! His heart burned with hatred. It turned out Andrew had not been afraid at all.
From the very beginning, he had no intention of showing the Schwartz family any respect. If that were the case, then the Schwartz family would not let this slide either. Ten years ago, Andrew was the Lloyd family''s Dragon Prince, famous throughout Chetvine. However, he believed that Andrew''s era was long over, and he was nothing now. Andrew said coldly, "Like I said before, pay for my car plus emotional damages and lost wages. Make it quick. If the Schwartz family can''te up with the money, that''s fine too.
I''ll call a demolition crew right now to tear down the Schwartz ---- residence and sell off your assets to cover my losses." Carson forced down his rage. "The Schwartz family can still afford topensate for a mere car. Fine, Mr. Lloyd. Whatever car it was, the Schwartz family will pay for a brand new recement." Dawson chimed in from the side, "He''s just driving some beat-up Jetta. It''s probably used anyway." Andrew nced at him. "Who told you my beloved car was used? Let me tell you something... That Jetta of mine is one of a kind in the entire world.
Sure, it looks ordinary on the outside, maybe even a bit worn. But everything inside has been custom- modified. "From the engine to every single screw, I spent big money tracking down parts from around the globe. I won''t ept less than a hundred million from you Schwartzes." Dawson nearly fainted from anger when he heard this, He pointed at Andrew shakily. "-y-You''re absolutely outrageous!" Carson raised his hand and shouted, "Fine! 100 million it is. The Schwartz family isn''t short on that kind of money. However, Mr. Lloyd, what goes aroundes around.
I hope what you''ve done today won''te back to bite you. "You''re bullying the Schwartz family because we''re weak, but ---- there''s always someone stronger out there. I refuse to believe you''ll never meet someone who can bully you." Andrew smiled cheerfully. "Well, that''s really not your concern. However, you did get one thing right. So far in my life, I genuinely haven''t met anyone who could bully me." In the end, the Schwartz family obediently coughed up 100 million topensate Andrew. Andrew left in high spirits and headed back to the used car lot where he had bought the Jetta earlier.
The dealer, Bryson Diaz, grinned widely, amazed at how easy Andrew''s business was. "Tell me honestly... Where did that Jetta you bought earlier end up? You''re back here buying another car after just a few hours. I really don''t get it." Andrew chuckled. "Actually, I have you to thank for this. Right after I drove off in that beat-up Jetta you sold me, someone rear- ended me. Turns out the guy was some rich kid from the Schwartz family. "He was a very polite fellow. He immediately offered topensate me with 100 million dors.<fnd252> Updates are released by find(?)ovel</fnd252>
So now I''ve got the cash toe back here and get something a bit nicer." Bryson scoffed and clearly did not believe a word. Shortly after, one of his friends from the car business showed up looking ---- thoroughly dejected Bryson craned his neck curiously. "Jayce, what''s the matter? Are things not going well at the Ferrari dealership?" Jayce Santos hung his head miserably. "Bryson, don''t even ask. Remember how I hooked up Dawson, the second son of the Schwartz family, with that Ferrari? "Well, that useless piece of trash rear-ended some used Jetta on the highway today.
Not only did he wreck the car, but the other guy apparently beat him up and followed him home. Word is the family lost a hundred million over it."<style>
