The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet (Thalassa and Elowen) novel Chapter 800

Chapter 800 

Upon reflection, this incident was indeed linked to the Sinclair group, so it was no surprise Lysander was here. 

Thalassa settled herself into the taxi, giving the driver the address to the Crawley Group, and they were on their way. 

Hospital corridor. 

Amelia struggled, pulling and vehemently blocking the victims’ families from entering Leopold’s room. She was exhausted, but she held her ground. 

It was her son in the room, and if she gave up and let these people in, her injured son could be beaten to death by them! 

So, she strained every nerve to keep them out. 

As the standoff ensued and Amelia was on the verge of collapse, Ethan arrived with the police. 

The police separated the two groups and mediated professionally. 

The victims’ families, who had been fiercely adamant about not backing down, seemed to lose some of their bravado at the sight of the police and began to argue and lament their loss. 

Amelia also explained to the police, “If this incident is truly our fault, the Sinclair family will certainly compensate for it without evasion. But right now, the exact cause of the accident is still unclear, and we can’t shoulder all the blame. It’s unfair to Leopold, who is also a victim. The true compensation should be sought from those who let the substandard phone explode. How about this, the Sinclair family will first compensate each family with five hundred thousand dollars, and then when the final results come out, we can see who should really compensate and by how much.” 

After the struggle, Amelia was nearly drained, panting as she spoke to the police. 

She hoped the police would convey their intentions to the victims’ families. 

For the safety of her son, she was willing to dig into her own pocket, offering a million dollars to temporarily placate the victims’ families. 

After understanding the situation, the police shared Amelia’s proposal with the victims’ families. 

However, not only did they refuse, they became even more agitated, yelling, “Five hundred thousand dollars to send us away? Is a life only worth that much? We don’t want money. We want Leopold’s life!” 

They believed that this was Amelia’s scheme, attempting to send them away with five hundred thousand dollars and then hide away. 

So they strongly disagreed. 

“Exactly, thinking they can send us away with five hundred thousand dollars? We refuse! We demand Leopold’s life!” Another family member yelled, eyes brimming with tears, chest heaving with intense anger and sorrow. 

The scene descended into chaos once again. 

The elevator doors slid open, and a powerful presence filled the corridor with an icy aura, overwhelming the space with an oppressive force, causing the air to become stagnant. 

The two families, who were still shouting and trying to push past the police to get to Amelia, were halted by this commanding presence. They turned their heads towards the source of the icy aura.
