What Separates Me and You novel Chapter 367

"We didn't do anything wrong. Why should we apologize? You were the ones who started the bullying. Is there any justice left?" The man began to vent his anger. "Look, everyone, aren't they the ones bullying us? It's all our fault for not having money or power. It serves us the right to get bullied."

Upon hearing his words, Quintin grew so angry that his mouth twitched. What kind of ridiculous statement was that? Did being poor mean they were always in the right?

However, Lewis wasn't going to indulge him. He said, "Now that you know, I'll give you five seconds to choose. Either kneel and apologize, or ..."

He didn't finish his sentence. Instead, he flashed the man a mysterious smile.

The man thought Lewis' smile was threatening. It was as if Lewis would kill everyone if he didn't apologize.

Yet judging by the chilling aura in Lewis' eyes, the man was right. His two brothers leaned in and whispered a few words in his ear. The man's expression changed as he struggled with inner torment.

He could only embarrass himself before the crowd or quietly die without a trace. Obviously, he had no choice left.

Given Lewis' status, secretly killing him was a piece of cake. Conrad grew impatient. "Will you apologize or not?"

Startled by Conrad's shout, the man quickly knelt on his knee. "Yes! I'll apologize!"

The two kids were reluctant, but their father grabbed their hands and whispered, "Kneel down now!"

The man pulled his kids as he spoke. His kids followed suit and knelt on the ground.

The man's two brothers also knelt down, and they all formed a straight line.

"Miss, I'm sorry. I misunderstood you. I shouldn't have laid my hands on you. I was too reckless. I beg you to be generous and show us some mercy. Please don't stoop to our level!"

Startled by their actions, Josephine quickly hid behind Quintin.

Lewis' face turned green when he saw her reaction.

Oozing an icy aura that could almost freeze people, Lewis stared coldly at the man on the ground. Due to the cold weather, the man was trembling.

He was shocked. What was going on? He had already apologized. Wasn't that enough?

"You need to be more sincere," Lewis enunciated each word coldly.

The man was stunned, but seeing the murderous gaze in Lewis' eyes, he went all out. He hit his head on the ground three times.

Since he was already kneeling, doing this didn't make much of a difference.

"I'm sorry, miss!"

He also pressed his sons' heads to the ground.

Quintin was at a loss too. After all, he wasn't Lewis. They had already apologized, but he didn't know whether to ask them to stand up or continue making things difficult for them.

When he saw the man lay hands on Josephine earlier, he wished he could have killed that idiot.

Turning his head to look at Josephine, he whispered, "Are you still angry?"

Josephine nervously glanced at the people on the ground and shook her head.

Quintin cast a glance at Lewis. Lewis snorted coldly and turned around before walking away from the crowd.

Quintin also couldn't be bothered with the people kneeling on the ground. He pulled Josephine and chased after Lewis.

The onlookers dispersed, and the street returned to its bustling atmosphere. Some people had captured the incident on camera and quickly posted it online.

Lewis was fast, and Conrad had to jog to catch up. Looking at the man's back, one could sense his extreme anger.

Conrad caught up with him and whispered, "Chairman Alvarez, are we going to let this matter drop?"

Lewis didn't even halt. He responded coldly, "Make them disappear."

Conrad widened his eyes and couldn't help but take a sharp breath. Goodness, this was true madness.

He cleared his throat and whispered again, "Chairman Alvarez, calm down. Don't forget our plan. Now is the opportunity to build a favorable impression in front of Mrs. Alvarez."

Finally, Lewis stopped walking. He slightly turned his head and looked at Conrad's face. His gaze then shifted to the two people behind him.
