The crowd didn't realize that the Xenoses were asking for a breakup fee.
“This family's pretty crummy. He's not married to her, yet they're asking him to cough up a fee for breaking up?”
“That's right! He's clearly capable if he can get together with a rich woman. I heard that rich women are very perverted, so much so that the member of their male partners are tired every day from having to please them sexually.”
“Tch! You men only know how to view this issue from a man's perspective. Based on what they said, it seems that the two of them have been in a relationship for five years. If a woman spent the best five years of her life with a man, and he abandoned her for a rich woman, is it really outrageous for the woman to ask the man for a little breakup fee to make up for the youth she lost?”
After the onlookers listened to Gordon's words, they discussed the matter among themselves in whispers.
The men thought the Xenoses had gone overboard because they believed a breakup shouldn't warrant a fee.
However, almost all the women there were on the Xenoses' side. They saw Gordon as a loving brother because they considered the request for a breakup fee after Brittany had spent five years of her youth on Harold to be reasonable.
A few couples even started arguing with each other about the matter. The more they quarreled, the more distant they became, so much so that their faces turned red from anger, and they almost divorced each other on the spot.
Harold was a little amused by the people's discussions.
“You want a breakup fee? Sure. Just give me a number.” He had no intention of causing a scene with the Xenoses. Even though it was the Xenoses who wanted the breakup in the first place, he did mistake Brittany for a girl he knew in the past and pursued her, wasting years of her life as a result.
To him, it was only natural for her family to demand compensation for that.
“At least you still have a conscience. We're not asking for a lot. Just one million for every single year you dated her. Since you two were together for five years, five million it is, then,” Gordon said without hesitation.
The onlookers gasped in surprise in response to his words. Five million for a breakup fee? That's way too much!
Even the women who had sided with the Xenoses thought the amount was exorbitant.
However, what was even more shocking to them had yet to arrive.
Like Gordon, Harold agreed to the Xenoses' request without hesitation. He said, “Sure. It's just five million. Don't bother me after this, or you'll feel my wrath.”
With that, he glanced in the direction Isabella had left earlier. Seeing that she still hadn't returned from answering her phone, he felt at ease.
The bystanders were even more flabbergasted when they heard what he said. He's so cool! He agreed to give them five million without batting an eye! Just how rich is this brat's wife? How much money does she give him every month for him to be able to act like that? No wonder so many men want to marry a rich wife. It's not just that they don't need to work as hard or as much as before, but they aren't required to work for the rest of their lives anymore!
Countless men in the scene aimed their envious sights at Harold.
As for the women, they were jealous of Brittany. Getting five million as a breakup fee after dating a man for five years is just too d*mn worth it!
Not a lot of women could earn that much money even after working in Durbaine for five years.
If they could get their hands on five million, they would practically be set for life!
“You...” The Xenoses were surprised when Harold agreed to their request readily.
They had never thought he would agree to pay five million without any reservation. It seems that this amount of money is nothing to this pretty boy. If we had known this earlier, we would've asked him for ten million!
