Both Lucian and Roxanne had no intention of opening the door.
Outside, Felix kept on calling out for them.
He sounded more and more sincere each time, and the fear in him was increasing rapidly.
Felix glared at his son before giving him one hard one on the boy's head.
“Ouch! Dad, why are you hitting me?” The boy cried out in pain. His father had always been more ruthless than other people. He could not fathom why his father became so meek all of a sudden.
Before the boy could return to his senses, Felix yelled at him again. “Get down on your knees! Right now! Ask Mr. Farwell and Ms. Jarvis for their forgiveness.”
The child hesitated before shaking his head. “Why should I apologize? I didn't do anything wrong. The girl is fine, isn't she?”
The boy showed no remorse at all!
Felix was livid and gave his son a few slaps, after which the child began to cry loudly.
Lucian frowned when the commotion outside the door became louder.
“I can't believe he's still trying to gain our pity. His son shows no sign of remorse at all. I will never forgive him!” When Roxanne heard the boy's refusal to apologize, she was so angry that her body shook.
In the end, Lucian called the front desk, and a few security guards came to take Felix and his son away.
Felix began shouting outside the hotel at the top of his voice, “Looks like Mr. Farwell and his family don't intend to accept our apology. Regardless, we have already done as the punishment the police gave us dictated. It will be even better if he doesn't want the compensation!”
He thought that would be the end of it.
Thereafter, he told his son, “Next time, watch who you bully! Don't offend the wealthy people. Be smarter!”
“Okay, Dad. So, are we all right now? Just now, I thought you were afraid of Mr. Farwell. By the looks of it, he isn't that powerful, after all!” The fat boy grinned, evidently forgetting the beating that he had gotten from his father a while ago.
