“You…”
Hearing this, Lindsay was so angry that she couldn’t speak.
This was the first time Lindsay had encountered someone so unreasonable.
He had hit her car, and instead of apologizing, he demanded that she apologize and compensate him-where on earth did such logic exist?
The young man looked at Lindsay with disdain and said, “What, you disagree?”
At that moment, Chris Shelby stepped forward.
After all, Lindsay was his employee, and how could Chris Shelby, as the boss, stand by and watch his employee being bullied?
“Kneel down and apologize right now, or you’ll regret it.”
“What!”
The young man looked at Chris Shelby, his face filled with disbelief.
He thought he had misheard, that someone was actually telling him to kneel and apologize.
Chris Shelby continued, “Not only do you need to apologize, but you also need to pay ten million dollars for the repairs to my friend’s car.”
Ten million dollars?
Upon hearing this, the young man and his group were completely stunned.
They knew that Lindsay’s Ferrari was worth at most a few million dollars.
Ten million dollars could buy a brand new Ferrari.
What kind of repair costs are so expensive? This was clearly extortion!
Lindsay tugged at Chris Shelby’s sleeve and said, “Mr. Shelby, the repair costs shouldn’t be that expensive…”
Before Lindsay could finish, Chris Shelby waved his hand and said, “Don’t worry about this; I’ll handle it for you. You’re my employee, and I won’t let you be taken advantage of.”
Hearing this, Lindsay was deeply moved.
If Chris Shelby wasn’t already married, Lindsay would have given herself to him in gratitude.
The young man, enraged and humiliated, cursed loudly, “Fuck you! Who the hell do you think you are, trying to extort me? Do you know who I am? Kneel down and apologize now, or I’ll ruin you today!”
Hearing the young man’s vulgar tirade, Chris Shelby’s expression turned dark.
Slap!
Slap!
Slap!
Chris Shelby walked over and, without any courtesy, slapped the young man several times.
Everyone around them was shocked.
The young man was driving a car worth over ten million dollars, clearly no ordinary person.
Wow!
Chris Shelby had just slapped him several times-wasn’t he afraid of offending someone he shouldn’t?
“You dare hit me?”
The young man covered his face, incredulous.
Chris Shelby disdainfully said, “So what if I did?”
The young man, furious, shouted, “Do you know who I am? I’m the young master of the Sterling family, one of the top ten noble families, and also a member of the Crimson Bloom! You hit me; you’re dead!”
Hearing that the young man was the young master of the Sterling family, the people around looked at Chris Shelby with sympathy.
In Middleton, the top ten noble families were law unto themselves.
And the young masters of these families were notorious for their arrogant and tyrannical behavior.
Ordinary people who crossed them never ended well.
Hearing this, Chris Shelby was taken aback.
He hadn’t expected that this young man was from one of the top ten noble families, the Sterling family.
Chris Shelby couldn’t help but feel speechless; why did these noble young masters seem not only arrogant but also foolish?
Just like Lysander Frost, this young man was just another big idiot!
“Whatever!”
Chris Shelby said disdainfully, “Are the Sterling family so great? Are the noble families really that impressive? In my eyes, you are nothing but trash!”
Chris Shelby did not even consider Lysander Frost a threat, so how could he see this young man before him as one?
Upon hearing this, Spencer Sterling was furious.
As the young master of the prestigious Sterling family, when had he ever been insulted like this?
“Boy, you dare to insult me? You’re looking for death!”
Chris Shelby shook his head, finding it somewhat amusing.
These noble families, how do they all manage to produce such useless offspring?
Chris Shelby could understand, though, as these noble families had been around for centuries.
With so many descendants in each family, it was inevitable that some would be fools.
Esther was very anxious when she saw Chris Shelby hit Spencer Sterling.
This was Middleton, not the East Coast.
Middleton was a place of hidden dragons and crouching tigers.
Moreover, there were many powerful families and influential figures in Middleton.
Although Esther knew Chris Shelby was no ordinary person, what if he provoked someone he shouldn’t have?
More and more onlookers gathered, but most did not dare to intervene.
After all, involving the young master of a noble family, no one wanted to stir trouble.
At this moment, Spencer Sterling was beside himself with rage.
With so many people around, if this incident were just to be let go, how could he continue to mix in Middleton?
If the members of Crimson Bloom heard about this, they would surely mock him!
Suddenly, Chris Shelby sneered and said, “Since you are the Sterling family’s young master, you must know Lysander Frost! Let me tell you, I dare to hit Lysander Frost, what’s more, you!”
“Lysander Frost!”
Upon hearing this, Spencer Sterling’s complexion changed.
Of course, he knew Lysander Frost.
In fact, they were close friends.
Just yesterday, Spencer Sterling saw Lysander Frost return from the East Coast looking beat up.
Spencer Sterling asked Lysander Frost what had happened.
Lysander Frost mentioned that he had been beaten by a nobody on the East Coast.
Spencer Sterling had not expected that the nobody Lysander Frost referred to was the very Chris Shelby before him!
The Frost and Sterling families had similar strengths, both filled with spoiled descendants.
Chris Shelby daring to hit Lysander Frost showed he was not someone to be trifled with.
But for Spencer Sterling to just let it go was something he could not swallow.
The young master of the illustrious Sterling family being hit in public and not fighting back, if word got out, wouldn’t he lose all his dignity?
Just then, a beautiful woman walked in.
“Spencer Sterling, this is my good friend. I hope you can let this go for my sake!”
Upon seeing the beautiful woman, Spencer Sterling was taken aback.
“Candace!”
The woman was none other than Candace, the current head of the Nance family.
Spencer Sterling said sheepishly, “Since Miss Nance herself has asked for mercy, I will let it go! But if he offends me again, I definitely won’t let him off!”
Though the great families couldn’t be compared with noble families.
But Candace was the head of the Nance family, one of Middleton’s three great families.
After the Daniels family was destroyed by Chris Shelby, the four great families had become three.
Although Spencer Sterling was the young master of the top ten noble families, the Sterling family, his status within the Sterling family was not very high; he was merely a spoiled scion living off his family’s wealth.
Compared to Candace, the head of the Nance family, Spencer Sterling was nothing.
Chris Shelby was taken aback when he saw Candace arrive.
Honestly, Chris Shelby had not expected to encounter Candace here.
Spencer Sterling looked at Candace with a pleasing smile and said, “Miss Nance, may I have the pleasure of inviting you to dinner?”
