Jonah lowered his head, unable to speak. He was truly defeated.
There was no other way out, so he could only shoot Chloe a look.
Chloe had already been awake for a while, and she immediately burst into tears. “Oh, my son! What should I do now? Helen, I don’t want to keep living anymore! I only have my son; if something happens to him, I… I’d rather be dead!”
Helen hastily held onto her. “Don’t worry, Chloe. I’ll find a way to help you. Please, Mr. Manning—I’m begging you this. Can’t you help us?”
“I’ve explained things very clearly earlier. This is mainly a problem of compensation and whether the victim is able to forgive the perpetrator. If we can resolve these problems, we can also try to resolve the other remaining problems,” Craig answered.
“You hear that, Chloe?” Helen hastily asked. “No one actually died, s-so this matter is still something that can be resolved. We’ll just have to pay a bit more, but won’t everything be okay by then?”
“W-Well, how much do we need to pay?” Chloe asked frantically.
Helen looked at Craig, and the latter was exasperated. “This really isn’t something that’s easy to say. From my experience, I presume it will start with one million at the very least!”
“What?!” Chloe exclaimed in panic. “No one’s dead, so why do we have to pay one million to them? Isn’t this… crossing the line?”
“In that case, do you want your son to stay in prison for a few extra years, or would you prefer paying a little extra money?” Craig asked softly.
