It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 1420

"Is 10, 000 enough for you? Or you can consult the police and let them make the calculation for you," Luke said while taking out his wallet. If it was not for his identity, he would not give the man even a penny.

"10, 000? Do you think I am a beggar? No matter what, you need to pay at least 20, 000." The man was getting too greedy. In fact, it was beyond his expectation for Luke to offer 10, 000. But seeing that he didn't have any hesitations about taking out so much money, the man decided to take advantage of him and demanded more.

"What? 20, 000? 10, 000 is a lot already. If you want that much money, you'd better go and rob the bank! You are shameless and pathetic!" Michelle was vexed. 'God forbid that I ever run into this hillbilly again, otherwise I will really break his legs. We'll see whether he'd dare to demand that much money again!' Michelle fumed inside.

"Okay fine, here is 20, 000." 20, 000 was to Luke what 200 was to common people, so he didn't care at all. The man's jaw almost dropped to the floor when he saw Luke take out the money. He didn't expect that it would be so easy for him to get 20, 000. He considered whether he should have asked for more.

"Why the hell are you giving him the money? He's ripping you off and you're giving him what he wanted. Luke, are you brainless?" Michelle stood right up out of anger. She hated it the most when people who had wronged her got to show their smug faces in front of her.

Completely ignoring Michelle, Luke turned to the man who seemed to be the chief at the station and said, "Officer, we have reached an agreement. Could I take her home now?"

"Oh! Sure. Just sign your name here, then you can go." Truthfully, the chief officer was also taken aback by Luke's way of dealing with this matter. He didn't even try to make a bargain, or more precisely, he only said a few words and the matter was solved. 'Money makes the world go round', and it couldn't be more right in this situation.

Luke leaned down on the desk and quickly signed his name. Then he nodded at the policeman and walked out of the police station, without even asking Michelle to follow him.

Michelle bit her lips and stared hard at the man who gloated over his triumph. Then she hurriedly rushed out.

"Sorry!" Michelle trotted and finally caught up with him. Ignoring the cold air that was frightfully frozen around him, she apologized cautiously, "I really didn't want to make trouble for you. I swear."

Remaining silent, Luke ignored her and directly walked to his car. He opened the door and got into the car. He seemed very calm on surface, but the way that he flung the door shut almost made Michelle jump in fear, realizing that he was raging inside.

Standing beside the car, Michelle was very uneasy, not knowing whether she should get in. A gust of wind blew and she couldn't help shivering.
