"Hah, how arrogant you are! Do you think that you can afford it? You should look at what kind of broken car you are driving. Even if you sell it, you can't even pay for the repair fee."
Minerva wanted to lose her cool as soon as she heard those unreasonable words. However, when she realized that she was the one at fault, she could only suppress her rage, and asked, "If this is the case, what would you suggest?"
While they were conversing, the door of the blue BMW was opened again and a thin man, Nickolas Quartley, came out of the car.
"What's the matter?"
"Nickolas, look at this lady. It was she who hit our car. Now look at her car. She can't afford to compensate at all, but she told me to call the police. Is she just trying to scare me? I'm so scared."
Minerva noticed the sudden change of her behavior from an unreasonable vixen to a gentle lass. Minerva couldn't help laughing secretly.
She was putting on such a marvelous act. She should be given the Oscar Award.
Subsequently, Nickolas met Minerva's eyes.
This should be the actual owner of the blue BMW. He looked quite young and cheerful, yet...
"You're the owner of the BMW, aren't you? I'm really sorry. My car has collided with you, but I'm willing to take the responsibility. However, I suggest calling the police to handle this matter. I don't mean anything else," Minerva gave him a thorough explanation.
Nickolas looked at the woman in a dress. Minerva had cold eyes and a fair complexion, exuding confidence and maturity.
This was the first time Nickolas had seen such a woman like her.
He glanced at her and then glanced at the back of his car. He let out a chuckle, "It's no big deal. I'm afraid that it will take a while if I call the police. I'll make a call to the insurance company and request them to tow away my car. As for the repair fees, please give me your business card."
Minerva was taken aback. The girl, Emily, was so arrogant and domineering. Minerva had prepared mentally that he would be difficult to deal with. Who would have thought that Nickolas would go easy on her instead? She immediately nodded her head and took out a business card from her bag, handing it over to Nickolas.
"Hi, this is my name card."
Slap!
When Nickolas was about to reach out his hand, Emily who was beside him, shoved away the business card in Minerva's hand with a smack and it fell to the ground. She snorted. "Nickolas, what do you think you are doing? Who knows whether this business card is actually valid? What if she runs away from responsibility? Furthermore... She gave you a business card at this time. I think she doesn't
want to compensate but to seduce you instead."
Minerva was rendered speechless.
Even a good-tempered woman like Minerva could not resist rolling her eyes at this moment.
She smiled callously, saying without hesitation, "It's my fault to collide with your car, but I have already apologized and I am willing to be taking responsibility for it. However, you have defamed me over and over again. Aren't you crossing the line?"
"Did you say that I crossed the line? What about you destroying our car?"
"Emily." Nickolas called out to her. "She's right. You shouldn't be so unreasonable since she has already agreed to compensate us."
After that, Nickolas gave Minerva an apologetic smile. "I'm sorry, she is not being sensible."
Then he bent down and picked up the business card that had been thrown on the ground. "I apologize to you on her behalf."
Although Emily was behaving rudely to her, Nickolas was obviously sensible and fair. Minerva suppressed the resentment against Emily and nodded to him. She then turned to leave.
When Emily saw that they were smiling at each other, she got insanely jealous at once. "No, she can't leave just like this! Shouldn't she apologize for what she did?"
Minerva paused and she turned to look at her.
"Didn't I say sorry to you?"
