Chapter 43 Compensation
The woman who pped Alina was in her thirties. She wore fancy clothes and looked anxious. She
pointed at Alina and scolded, "How dare you take my son away? He is the treasure of the Shen Family.
How could you give him this junk food? Can you afford it if he gets diarrhea?"
"Who are you? What''s wrong with you?" Just after Alina finished her words, Harrison threw down his
kebabs and called out to the woman, "Mom."
Mom... Alina''s eyes widened, ''Is she the mother of the little boy?'' Then she realized that she had no
reason to hit her, even if she was his mother.
Then Alina stood up and said in a cold voice, "Mrs. Shen, you hit me out of no reason. Don''t you think
you should give me an exnation?"
Mrs. Shen touched her son''s head tenderly, and nced at Alina arrogantly and disdainfully. Then she
said, "Well, I''m Mrs. Shen. This is the best exnation!"
Hearing that, Harrison pulled his mother''s hand and said, "Mom, I ran out on my own. It has nothing to
do with sister!"
"Sister?" Mrs. Shen changed her tone and scolded her son, "You call her sister when you don''t know
who she is and why she approached you. She may not want to be your sister, but a stepmother!"
''Isn''t this Mrs. Shen crazy? Why does she take everyone as her enemy?''
"Auntie, Harrison is not there. You..." A boy ran over panting. When he saw the little boy beside his
aunt, he was relieved. Soon he noticed the girl standing opposite his aunt.
Their eyes met. It was ina!
''Isn''t this Leo?''
"Mrs. Shen, I don''t know what you are talking about. Your son and I met by chance today, and we
decided to y together. If you don''t believe me, you can ask Harrison." Alina was sure that Mrs. Shen
regarded her as someone else.
Seeing this, Leo hastily stood in front of Mrs. Shen and said to Alina, "ina, I apologize on behalf of
my aunt. She was badly hurt before. She didn''t mean it. Please forgive her."
Then he turned to Mrs. Shen and said, "Auntie, this is my ssmate. She doesn''t know uncle at all.
You are too nervous."
"Are you serious? Is it true that she has no bad intentions in approaching Harrison?"
"It''s true, auntie. She is my ssmate. She is only 16 years old. She is still in grade one in high
school."
Mrs. Shen finally believed that she had pped the wrong person. She suddenly became a gentle and
politedy. "Youngdy, I''m sorry. How do you want me topensate you?"
Alina touched her face and said lightly, "Since Mrs. Shen is so sincere, pleasepensate me with a
few hundred thousand dors. I don''t have a bank card. Just give me cash."
Leo was stunned and looked at Alina in a daze.
Mrs. Shen didn''t expect that after she apologized, she really asked her forpensation, and the
amount she asked for was huge.
How could be a p worth so much money?
She had hit others before. Every time they heard that she was Mrs. Shen, they would avoid making
trouble for themselves. This was the first time she had met someone who didn''t respect her and really
wanted her to pay for it.
Mrs. Shen responded with a forced smile, "Little girl, a few hundred thousand dors are not a small
sum."
"Yeah, I know. If you think it''s too expensive, you can let me hit you back," replied Alina.
"Sister! Please don''t hit my mother!" Although Harrison thought that it was wrong for her mother to hit
Alina, he still spoke for her after hearing that Alina would hit back her mother.
"Your mother hit me first."
"I know, but..." Harrison didn''t know what to say. Alina had apanied him the whole morning and
taken good care of him along the way. They had a good time.
Dissatisfied, Leo looked at the girl and said, "ina, my aunt didn''t do it on purpose..."
"I don''t know whether she did it on purpose or not. I just know she hit me and is willing to make
Leo was stunned by her question.
Seeing this, Mrs. Shen said arrogantly, "Well, you just want money. I will give it to you, but I don''t have
so much cash with me. How about a check?"
"I''m not in a hurry. You don''t have to give me the cash now. After you get ready, you can give it to Leo
and ask him to bring it to school." Then, Alina sat down and continued to eat the barbecue.
Mrs. Shen was extremely irritated by Alina''s attitude. She suppressed her anger and said to her
nephew and son, "Leo, Harrison, let''s go!"
After they went far away, Alina looked at their backs. She hated those people who pretended to be
insane and hit others at will. Couldn''t she sincerely make an apology? Did she think everyone deserved
to be hit by her?
Her good mood was ruined by Mrs. Shen''s p.
After eating the barbecue, Alina was not in the mood to continue to have fun. She was going to another
ce.
Then she went to the city library. When she arrived there, she ran into two women who had a fight with
each other for a seat. That disgusted her.
Alina returned home sulkily.
"Dad, I''m back." It was only three o''clock in the afternoon, but Eric was at home.
Eric, who was reading a magazine, looked up at Alina and asked in a casual tone, "Where did you go?"
"I went to the amusement park first and then the library. Why did Dade back so early today?"
"I have an appointment with Mr. Gu of the police station today. We were going to go fishing after dinner,
but he left early. I was bored fishing alone, so I came back."
Alina asked carefully, "Dad, how is it going?" Will I be put into jail?"
Ericughed and said, "You don''t have to worry about anything. I''m here, so I won''t let you go to jail.
You don''t need to worry about that. I''ll deal with it for you."
"Thank you, Dad. You are always the best!"
Hearing this, Eric burst intoughter, "Ha ha..."
"What are you talking about? Why are youughing so happily?" Wendy walked to them with a smile.
Eric just smiled and said nothing.
ina drew back, smiled and said, "Nothing, Mom. I got sweaty after ying all day. I''m going to take a
shower."
Seeing her daughter walking backwards, Wendy said with concern, "Okay, look ahead. Don''t fall!"
On the second floor, when Alina passed by Sheffield''s room, she slowed down and looked at the door.
She wondered whether he was in it.
Now she realized thatpared with the p, his dislike of her was nothing.
She was no longer mad at him.
Back to her room, Alina took a shower and dried her hair. When she turned off the hair dryer, she heard
the faint sound of the chair rubbing the ground from the next door.
It seemed that Sheffield was in his room!
She put away the hair dryer and took out a small box from the pocket. Inside was a gift she bought to

him.
She knocked on the door. When Sheffield heard a knock on the door, he raised his voice and said,
"Come in."
Seeing that it was Alina, Sheffield stopped and then continued to y his game as if nothing had
happened.
When Alina wondered whether she should disturb him when he was ying a game, she heard ''game
over''ing from the console.
