Revenge Looks Good on Me (Amelia and Sebastian) novel Chapter 83

Chapter 83 The Multi–Million–Dollar Mistake

The sound of the two women wailing was giving William a massive headache.

His other sons weren’t home; there was no one to help him navigate this disaster.

Just as he was paralyzed by indecision, Amelia offered him a “way out” with a sweet smile.

“Since things have come to this, and Mr. Harrington is out of danger, maybe Cyrus could be persuaded to settle this privately. The Bennetts could just cover the medical expenses.”

Hearing Amelia finally “speak up” for the family, William forced a fawning smile. “Exactly, Cyrus! We’ll take the hit. We’ll pay whatever it takes to make things right.”

Cyrus frowned, glancing at Amelia only to see her giving him a subtle, mischievous wink.

What is this girl up to?

Fine. She saved the old man; I’ll follow her lead.

‘Since William is asking, I suppose I can give some face. What do you think the compensation should be?”

William’s eyes lit up with excitement. He opened his mouth to speak, but Amelia cut him off with total authority. “As the Master’s private physician, I think I’m best suited to calculate the damages.

‘Let’s call it three hundred million dollars.”

‘Three hundred million?!” William gasped. “Are you insane? What kind of hospital stay costs three nundred million?”

‘Oh, if you don’t believe me, let me break it down for you.”

Amelia grabbed a pen and paper, jotting down several line items before handing the sheet to William.

‘Edward is seventy–five. With any luck, he has twenty–five years left. Normally, he wouldn’t need extra care, but Sophia’s poison has caused permanent organ damage.”

From now on, he needs monthly specialist scans, top–tier supplements, and constant holistic treatments. Three hundred million won’t even cover the interest on that kind of care.”

A family of the Harringtons‘ status used only the most expensive medicine and cutting–edge equipment.

As William read the list, his face turned so dark it looked like ink was dripping from his skin.

This brat is doing this on purpose!

Amelia even turned to Cyrus with an innocent look. “Don’t you agree, Cyrus?”

Cyrus nodded, looking like a man determined to get his money. “Honestly, considering the Bennett- Sterling connection, I’m giving you a massive discount.”

“Cyrus…” William’s face was a mask of pure agony.

“What? You don’t want to pay?” Cyrus stood up, his tall frame looming over William. The sheer pressure made the older man’s knees knock.

“No, it’s not that! It’s just… three hundred million is a lot!”

Cyrus didn’t waste another breath. He signaled to the guards. “Take Sophia to the station.”

“Wait! No! I’ll pay! I’ll pay!”

William had no choice but to swallow his pride and his rage.

The Bennett Group had been hit too many times lately; he couldn’t afford another public scandal!

As William handed over the check for three hundred million,. Cyrus accepted it with a satisfied smirk. William, a word of advice: stop mistaking a pebble for a diamond. Open your eyes.”

William flinched. Was he calling Sophia a pebble?

No. Impossible! It’s all Amelia’s fault! Everything bad that happens to this family is her fault!

Amelia, shall we?”

Cyrus didn’t forget to take Amelia with him as he left.

f he left her alone in that house, Sebastian would probably burn his villa down for the “oversight.”

As she walked out, Amelia turned back to William with a look of mock–heartbreak. “See? I’ve sacrificed so nuch for this family. Without me, Sophia would be headed for a life sentence!”

William’s face was the color of a bruised plum. Not only had he lost three hundred million, but he had to

mile and see them out.

Once Cyrus’s car pulled away, William stormed back inside and unleashed his fury on Sophia.

Did you or did you not poison that man today?!”

Sophia clutched her bruised chest, sobbing piteously. “Dad, Amelia has framed me a dozen times! Do you really not believe me either?”

“Then why were your prints on the bottle? Don’t tell me you were just playing with it for fun!”
