Chapter 352
The young man did not seem to notice the change in the expressions of Haylan and Reign. He continued to speak without a care for them, “You people from the Labenz family have done such a heinous thing. Some of us are even crippled. Now, you want to silence us with just 200 thousand dollars?
“Ms. Labenz, don’t you think that’s too little?
“Guys, don’t you think so too?”
As he spoke, he looked at the others.
The others looked at each other, Some of them were afraid and kept silent, not daring to speak.
Some others already had their injuries tended to after being saved by Haylan and Reign. They were grateful for them and did not agree with the young man’s words.
However, more than ten people stood up and joined in the jeering.
“That’s right, Ms. Labenz. This isn’t over unless you give us 1 million dollars!”
“This I million dollars is just to silence us. You still have to compensate us. We are all injured. You must compensate us for mental damage, lost work, medical expenses, and all other expenses!”
“Our relatives and friends have also been shocked. You have to pay for that too!””
“That’s right. You must pay for your mistakes. The Labenz family is loaded with money. Such a small sum of compensation surely is notlung to you!”
Those people’s eyes were filled with complacency. They spoke without thinking and asked for all kinds of compensation. Their requests became more and more excessive.
The young man who stood out at the beginning sneered and stood up. He looked at Reign and said, “Ms. Labenz, look, this is the voice of the masses”
“What’s your name? Reign asked
“I’m not anyone reputable My name is Shaun Ackres The young man said proudly.
“Do you have any other requests?” Reign asked.
“I can ask for more?”
Shaun’s eyes lit up, and he immediately said excitedly. “Ms. Labenz, you’re truly kind and beautiful. Give me a moment. Let me think about it.”
He rubbed his chin. Excitement could be seen in his eyes. He muttered, “I can’t miss such a good opportunity. I must come up with a good reason and ask for a huge compensation”
He thought about it for 30 seconds before his eyes lit up with joy. “Ms. Labenz, people from the Labenz family tore down my house. Don’t you think you should compensate me with another house?”
Dozens of people behind him also joined in and said. “That’s right, that’s right. Gregory Labenz tore down our house too. You have to compensate us too!”
Haylan’s eyes turned cold when he heard that.
These people were taking advantage of the situation and seeking to exploit it further.
It was obvious from their appearance that they were not exactly innocent victims. It could be considered karma that they were locked up.
When Haylan thought of that, he immediately took a step forward, wanting to intervene.
At this moment, Reign pulled him back and shook her head. “The Labenz family caused this trouble. Let me handle it.”
“Are you sure you can handle it?” Haylan asked.
*No problem at all’ Reign nodded.
“Alright, you handle it.”
Haylan nodded and stood aside.
Reign’s expression was calm. She looked at Shaun and the others and said, “Your request is not too much. I can proceed with it. How about this! I’ll be registering your names first.”
After pausing for a moment, she turned to look at Mabel, who was holding her handbag. “Ms. Upston, you have a pen and paper, right?“
“You’
Mabel immediately took out a pen and notebook from her handbag
“Help me record their names, identity numbers, and phone mumbers. I’ll verify them all and compensate them accordingly.” Reign said
Mabel didn’t dare to disobey She instantly walked over with her pen and notebook to register the people’s details.
Shaun and the people in this with him were overjoyed. They immediately jotted down their names, identity details, and so on in the notebook provided by Mabel
Mabel took over the notebook and handed it to Reign respectfully.
Reign glanced at it and took out her phone to take a photo. She sent it to Landon and said in a deep voice, “Mr. Katz, please investigate the background of these people for me.
“I want all their information in 15 minutes”
Shaun and the others were initially very pleased with themselves and full of anticipation. However, when they heard Reign’s words, their expressions changed drastically
“Investigate us Ms. Labenz. what is the meaning of this Shaun glared at Reign
“I will compensate you and the other victims, but that doesn’t mean you can ask for the stars” Reign glanced at him coldly.
It was obvious to Reign that Shaun was a malicious and cunning person
Reign had already promised to compensate the victims and even knelt down to them. Most people had come to terms with that yet Shaun still wanted to take advantage of the situation and extort her.
Reign wasn’t a fool. How could she possibly agree to such a ridiculous request?
“Does this mean you don’t intend to compensate us? Sure, we will expose this matter right away!” Shaun angrily said.
With that, he turned around and was about to walk our
Reign did not stop fum. She merely sand coldly, “I advise you to better understand the situation. If Gregory Labenz can treat you like this, do you think the Labenz family can’t handle a small fry like you?”
Shaun suddenly stopped in his tracks, and his expression turned extremely ugly.
“Shaun Ackres, do you think I’m easy to bully just because I’m a woŋjan?”
Reign’s
is gaze was cold as she said word by word. “Gregory Labenz locked you all up like dogs and bullied you at will. He even wanted to sell all of you overseas. He’s the main culprit.
“If you have resentment or anger, you should look for him, not mel
“I received the news and came here to save all of you. I am your benefactor. Yet, you returned my kindness with ingratitude and made such a condition.
“Even Gregory Labenz has to listen to me. Do you really think I can’t do anything to you?”
Her voice was not loud, but it was powerful and domineering
There was a chilling sensation
As Reign spoke, she stared at Shaun’s back, and her entire body emitted a powerful aura.
Shaun was suppressed by Reign’s aura. When he heard what Reign said, his face paled in shock. He was so frightened that he fell to the ground with a thud. His face was pale, and he was drenched in sweat.
At that moment, Shaun was afraid.
When he saw Reign kneeling just now, he subconsciously thought she was easy to bully and wanted to scam ber.
Only now did he realize that Reign was not to be messed with
Her words earlier were extremely domineering and filled with threat and killing intent. Shaun was trembling in fear.
It was true. They were all from the Labenz family. No matter how malicious Gregory was, he was still under Reign’s jurisdiction.
How could someone who could control Gregory and the entire Mapleturz Group be a weak woman who could be bullied by others?
She could even be considered the empress of the Mapleturz Group!
Reign no longer looked at Shaun. Instead, she looked at the dozen people beside him and said coldly. “If you want to report me, you can proceed now.
“I respect your opinions. I won’t stand in your way.
‘Go on’
