Grabbing Leonard's hand by the wrist, Nathan sneered, "How dare you bully my girls?"
Staring at Nathan in shock, Leonard tried to struggle his hand free. However, he couldn't even budge. He then scowled, "Who the f*** are you?"
Holding Leonard's wrist tightly, Nathan easily pried Penny's phone out of his fingers. After passing it back to her, he pushed Leonard aside and declared, "I am her husband and also the girl's father. If there are any problems, you speak to me."
Leonard's men exchanged glances when they heard Nathan.
Smirking, Leonard scrutinized Nathan from head to toe. He scoffed, "Since you're the head of the household, this will make things easier."
"Your daughter pushed my grandfather and caused him to break his left arm. If you don't pay us two million, you will be in a whole lot of trouble."
As Leonard spoke, his subordinates surrounded Nathan in an aggressive stance and prepared to attack.
Nathan replied with a slight smile, "If my daughter did break his arm, I will definitely compensate you."
Happy to hear Nathan's answer, Leonard responded immediately, "There was no one around my grandfather other than your daughter. I saw it with my own eyes so you cannot deny it."
Without promising anything, Nathan requested, "Can I see your grandfather's arm?"
Leonard motioned to the old man.
"Grandfather, let him see your injury."
When the old man showed Nathan and the crowd his injury, it looked gruesome.
After taking a closer look, Nathan smiled smugly. "My friend, I used to be a soldier and have seen many injuries such as this. I have also treated many of them."
"Your grandfather's injury is a fracture that's more than three days old. It's obvious to anyone with some basic medical knowledge that this is not a fresh wound."
"I am not in the mood to hold this against you. Why don't you run along and stop scamming people?”
The crowd was stunned when they heard what Nathan said.
One of them who was a doctor nodded in agreement. "That's right. What this man said is true. One can tell at first sight that it's an old wound that's at least a couple of days old."
