Chapter 1307 - 1307 Compensation of 150 Million Dollars
1307 Compensation of 150 Million Dollars
Lucas was furious. He had rushed over as quickly as he could, and the moment he arrived, he saw his daughter being thrown against the ground. His heart had stopped beating at that instant.
His eyes were as sharp and as cold as ice. After he held Amelia in his arms, the first thing he did was grab the neck of the bodyguard who had tried to slam Amelia against the ground.
The tall and burly bodyguard, who weighed nearly 100 kilograms, looked just like a chicken being strangled by the neck in Lucas’s hand. He couldn’t resist at all. Then Lucas flung him away with all his might.
Bang!
!!
The bodyguard landed heavily on the ground in front of Luther and his wife, and his eyes rolled backward. Before he could even make a sound, he had already pa.s.sed out.
This sudden scene shocked everyone.
When Tommy’s mother saw the bodyguard lying unconscious on the ground in front of her, she screamed at the top of her lungs. “Ahhh!”
“Daddy!” Amelia suddenly felt the familiar embrace and opened her eyes. Seeing Lucas’s familiar face, she wrapped her arms around his neck and burst into tears. “Daddy, waah… you’re finally here! I was so scared! These bad guys bullied me and Grandpa. They even hit him. Waah!!”
She had been terribly frightened all this while, but she had been holding it back. Now that she finally saw her father, she couldn’t help venting all her feelings of fear and bawling loudly.
“It’s okay, Amelia. I’m here now. You don’t have to be scared anymore.” Lucas gently patted Amelia on the back and comforted her, but he had a sharp killing intent in his eyes.
He would never let off anyone who dared to bully his daughter!
William got up from the ground with great difficulty. With one hand on his waist, he limped over and said full of self-reproach, “Lucas, you’re finally here. Fortunately, you managed to arrive and save Amelia in time. Otherwise, I would have broken my promise and let her get hurt.”
He looked extremely guilty.
During the critical moment just now, if Lucas hadn’t saved Amelia in time after the bodyguard threw her, she would have been slammed against the ground. Minor injuries would have been the least of their worries. She could have even died.
Lucas looked at the blood stains on the corners of William’s mouth, the obvious scratches on his face, and footprints on his chest, and his eyes darkened. He asked worriedly, “William, how are you? Are you okay?”
William shook his head and said with gritted teeth, “I’m fine. They’re just minor injuries. Lucas, the other party has a powerful background, and they’re difficult to deal with. I heard people say that they’re from the Holmes family in DC. You have to be careful and don’t go hard against them!”
He was worried that the Holmes were too powerful and that Lucas might face a formidable enemy that he couldn’t afford to offend.
The Holmes? Lucas’s eyes glimmered. If the person who bullied his daughter was from the Holmes family, then he would never let them off!
“William, rest a.s.sured. No matter who they are, leave it to me,” Lucas said softly as his cold gaze swept across the man and the woman in front of him.
“Heh, are you that little b.a.s.t.a.r.d’s father?” Luther’s wife glanced at Lucas with disdain and rolled her eyes. “That little b.a.s.t.a.r.d of yours broke the logo of my car and had the audacity to slander my son, saying that he did it. And that old fogey even dared to talk back to me and hit my son. And now, you hurt my bodyguard. Tell me, how should you compensate us?”
Lucas’s gaze was ice cold. After hearing this woman scolding his daughter and father-in-law, he glared daggers at her.
Holding Amelia in his arms, he asked coldly, “In that case, how much do you want me to compensate you?”
For some reason, Luther’s wife felt a chill all over her body, causing her to s.h.i.+ver subconsciously. But she soon shouted angrily, “Just now, you only needed to compensate us fifteen million dollars for the damage done to my car and my mental damage. But now that you’ve beaten up my bodyguard so badly, you have to compensate us at least 150 million dollars! Otherwise, my husband won’t let you off!”
Then the woman glanced at Luther and said coquettishly, “Honey, don’t you think so?”
Staring straight at Lucas, Luther said coldly, “Yeah! How dare you injure my person? You must be tired of living! We’re already being kind enough by only making you compensate us 150 million dollars!”
Amelia wiped her tears and said aggrievedly, “Daddy, I didn’t hit Tommy, and I didn’t damage their car. It was Tommy who broke the golden crown!”

William said, “Yeah, that boy was holding the logo at first, but he stuffed it in Amelia’s hands and said she broke it. How could Amelia lie? Later on, this woman slapped Amelia and even claimed that I bullied them. They’re lying. I didn’t lay a finger on them!”
Lucas nodded, the gaze turning colder.
Lucas understood his daughter very well and knew that she would never lie. Since she said that Tommy broke the Maserati logo, he must have broken it.
He didn’t expect this mother and son to be so shameless. Not only did they falsely accuse Amelia and William, they even hit them and had the nerve to demand that they compensate 150 million dollars.
“Amelia, I believe you. Since you said you didn’t break the logo, you didn’t break it. Don’t worry.” Lucas touched Amelia’s head and asked William, “Can you still hold on, William?”
William touched his chest, which was still aching from the kick, and nodded. “Yeah, I can still manage.”
“Okay, then, please take Amelia home first. Leave the matter here to me.”
Just as Lucas was about to place Amelia in William’s arms, she wrapped her arms tightly around his neck and frowned. She said with worry all over her tiny face, “No, Daddy, I don’t want to leave you! There are so many bad guys. I can’t leave you behind alone with these villains!”
Seeing how well-behaved and sensible Amelia was and how she was insisting on staying with him despite being frightened, Lucas felt his heart melt.
“It’s okay, Amelia. Trust me. I’m very strong, and I will definitely defeat these bad guys. Be good and go home with Grandpa. Wait for me at home, okay?” Lucas said calmly.
Hearing this, Amelia finally calmed down and said in a puerile voice, “Okay. But Daddy, you have to be careful and make sure you defeat the bad guys and come home safely!”
“Okay, I promise.” Lucas touched his daughter’s soft hair and placed her in William’s arms.
At this moment, a piercing voice suddenly sounded at the side. “You want to leave? Did I say you could leave?”
