Chapter 1309: Chapter 1308: Charles Northwood’s Character Is Questioned

"Is this your idea of kindness? Huh? You’re obviously trying to scam us with a fake marriage!"

Mr. Jameson was so angry he was panting heavily and threw a broom over.

Unfortunately, it was dodged by the woman surnamed Zhou.

"Get out of our house now, or I’ll call the police."

Tara Jameson pulled out her phone, ready to dial 911.

"Alright, alright, I admit defeat. I’m leaving."

Aunt Zhou turned around angrily, looking at her wet appearance, holding back a wave of frustration.

She never expected Cecilia Johnson to suddenly appear and thoroughly investigate Leon Thompson’s situation.

It’s really unexpected that the Jameson Family knows someone so capable.

Looking at the black BMW nearby, Aunt Zhou angrily took a small knife from her purse and scratched it.

Who would have thought that after she scratched it, the car alarm suddenly went off.

Charles Northwood was taken aback and quickened his pace towards it.

Aunt Zhou saw him coming and immediately tried to run away.

"Stop right there! Or I’ll call the police."

As Charles Northwood spoke, he arrived at the car and saw a thin scratch on the car door.

"I didn’t do that."

Aunt Zhou immediately denied.

Charles Northwood glared at her, reached out and grabbed her left wrist. With a slight force, the small knife in Aunt Zhou’s hand fell to the ground.

"Do you want to settle this privately or should I call the police?"

"It’s just a scratch; I’ll pay you for it."

Aunt Zhou felt furious inside, never expecting the car to alarm by itself.

She took out fifty USD and tossed it at Charles Northwood.

"There, can I leave now?"

Charles Northwood looked at the fifty USD as if he had seen a ghost.

"Do you think fifty USD is enough?"

"Then how much do you want?"

"Ten thousand."

"You’re dreaming!"

Aunt Zhou immediately shouted, thinking he was robbing her.

Just for a scratch, he demanded ten thousand USD. Such behavior was despicable.

"If you don’t pay, I’ll have to call the police."

Upon hearing ten thousand USD, everyone was stunned.

Nobody expected this seemingly righteous man to demand ten thousand USD right away.

Clearly, this was extortion.

"Then go ahead and call the police, and I’ll call them too. You’re obviously extorting."

Charles Northwood shrugged and reached for his phone.

Seeing the onlookers pointing and commenting, Tara Jameson quickly got beside Charles Northwood.

"You don’t need the money anyway, don’t make things difficult for her."

This world is like this; many people tend to side with the weaker party, the one perceived as harmed.

Many people were criticizing Charles Northwood for his unreasonable demand, while few considered that Aunt Zhou was the one who scratched the car.

If she hadn’t acted, this wouldn’t have happened, and she was deceitful; she was trying to trick their family into a blind date.

"I’m not making things difficult for her."

Charles Northwood looked down at Tara Jameson, feeling wronged by her accusation.

Charles Northwood wouldn’t stoop to such crude measures for revenge; he’s always been the type to execute without leaving traces.

Of course, he wouldn’t do something obviously unfair.

"But..."

Anyone would know Charles Northwood is being difficult, just for a small scratch, demanding thousands in compensation.

"Tara, you must trust my integrity."

If he’s not reputable, how could he be a professor?

He’s a person of great charisma, isn’t he?
