Guardian-In-Law by Five Generals novel Chapter 407

Chapter 407 Blackmail 

“Was the other party badly injured?” 

Agnes turned pale at the mention of five hundred grand to settle out 

of court. 

Isaac nodded and urged, “Get the money and bail him out. It took a lot of persuasion to get the price down to half a million. The family initially asked for a million dollars. Otherwise, your son would get a jail sentence for the assault.” 

Unlike Agnes, Darcy was not easily fooled. 

Isaac acted like he had their best interest at heart, but his words carried intimidation. Something did not sit right with her. 

Furrowing her brows, Darcy said, “Captain Oceanid, how did the whole thing happen? Can you give us the recount? 

“We need to know who started it, and who was at fault before we talk 

about a settlement.” 

Isaac pulled a long face and stared coldly at Darcy. 

He said irritably, “I hope you don’t think I’m lying to you. The victim’s family is demanding compensation, or they will file charges against your son, and they have the means to do so. You can’t afford to take them to court. It’s in your best interest to settle out of court before 

it’s too late.” 

Standing on the sidelines, Kaze realized something was off about 

Isaac. 

He pointed at the Maserati Quattroporte parked out front. 

“Captain Oceanid, they have the means to go to court, but so do we. I

think we should meet with Sky and get an idea about what happened before anything.” 

Isaac was the type to judge a book by its cover, so the quickest way to get through to him was to show that the Quints had money and 

resources too. 

“Hmph. Quattroportes are common. I doubt they cost much. So you have some money. It doesn’t mean anything.” 

Isaac scoffed in disdain. 

He thought Kaze’s family owned a small business and that they probably did not have access to huge funds or power. 

If the Quints had money and power, they would have made phone calls to pull some strings instead of rushing to the police station. 

“It’s your choice whether you want to make payment. As far as we know, Sky will have to face jail time unless you reach a settlement.” 

Kaze smirked. 

Isaac was untrustworthy for keeping things vague. 

A civilian would have been fooled. 

Kaze said curtly, “Captain Oceanid, we’re not saying that we won’t compensate the family, but we should at least get a face-to-face 

meeting with the victim’s family-” 

“Can you shut up, Kaze?” 

Agnes yelled, cutting him off. 

“Don’t interfere. I won’t forgive you if Sky ends up in jail because of you.” 

She glared at Kaze before turning to Darcy. “Withdraw the money to save your brother, Darcy.”

Kaze walked out without another word. 

He pulled out his phone and gave Don a call. 

“Can you give me a moment, Captain Oceanid? I’ll get the money 

now.”
