C4 You Can Pay in Installments

Downstairs, near the cafe.

The two of them looked at each other and sat down. Scarlett managed to restrain her urge to run away with much difficulty and pretended to be calm as she asked, "How did you know that my house is here?"

"I checked the ID card used to rent a hotel room." Joseph spoke bluntly. His deep eyes seemed to want to see through her.

Scarlett started to sweat. This is bad. He even knew her identity card. This time, she is afraid that she will be in trouble.

"I think it's necessary to explain. That night, I was drunk, and then..."

"Being drunk is not an excuse for the perpetrator to exonerate himself. The person who got drunk and got into a car accident has to take full responsibility, what do you think?" Joseph picked up the cup and took a sip. His every action made people's hearts beat faster.

Scarlett turned her face away and did not dare to look at him again. He was too handsome!

It must be because she was drunk and could not resist Joseph's beauty. She could not control herself and pulled him to get a room.

"Since that's the case, name a price!" Scarlett's hands were shaking. The cup and the cup butt collided with each other. There was a clear sound of collision. She quickly put the cup down.

"Heh, five hundred yuan on the bed?" Joseph thought of that lump of money and secretly laughed.

"No, I didn't have any cash on me. This incident has already happened. Other than making up for it, I really can't do anything about it." Scarlett was very ashamed. She originally thought that her life could end peacefully without any wind or waves. If she were to suddenly be charged with rape, she really would not be able to bear it.

"Okay. Since you want compensation, then five hundred thousand. Not a cent less." Joseph's sudden words scared Scarlett so much that she almost fainted.

She opened her eyes wide and could not speak for a long time. She felt as if there was a fish bone stuck in her chest. It was extremely painful.

"What's wrong? You're not willing?" Joseph looked at her with a smile in his eyes. This woman seemed to be even more stupid than he had imagined.

Did she really think that he was here to claim compensation?

He was curious how she managed to live to this age with her intelligence.

"Can you reduce it a bit? 500,000 is too much." Scarlett forced a smile and clenched her fists tightly. She could not be angry, nor could she anger him.

"No, not a cent less. Otherwise, you can talk to my lawyer!" Joseph did not come to ask her for compensation. Seeing her cautious and scared look, he suddenly felt that it was quite fun.

"Don't. Don't look for a lawyer for a small matter." Scarlett had already cursed him countless times in her heart. She forced a smile and looked at him.

"You can give me the money in installments." Suddenly, Joseph threw out this sentence again.

"In installments?" Scarlett fell into deep thought and felt like she had fallen into a huge pit.

Joseph took out his phone while she was thinking. He opened the photo and showed it in front of her eyes. "I will give you ten minutes to think about it. Otherwise, we will meet in court."

"Sure, but I have a request. We can't publicize this to anyone." Scarlett accepted his request for her reputation.

"Happy cooperation!" Joseph stood up calmly and extended his hand to her with a smile.

His graceful bearing made her heart tremble inexplicably. She could not help but extend her hand.

His broad palm firmly grasped her palm.

The temperature of his hand seemed to have awakened her memories of that night. Scarlett's face suddenly turned red and hot. When she regained her senses, Joseph had already left the cafe.
