Chapter 4510
Simon glared haughtily at Esther.
"I'm in the geomancy market's Empire Hall, Silas..." he began. "Someone named Esther John is trying to trick my
money out of me. I need your help. You..."
"Hello? Hello?"
"What did you say, Uncle? The signal's getting weak..."
Beep, beep, beep!
The call ended right after.
Simon froze. He dialed the number a few more times, but the busy tone would always play. Without Silas's help, he
had no idea how to deal with the situation.
"Looks like Young Master John won't be coming to you!" Esther exclaimed.
In reality, she knew that Blaine was the owner of the place. At the end of the day, Silas was just his younger
brother!
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSilas would be insane if he stood up against Blaine for someone else's sake.
Harvey said nothing as they argued. He crouched down to look at the broken pieces on the ground.
The exquisite statue was made purely out of porcelain. Aside from the wooden fish in the statue's hands, everything
else was basically dust.
Judging from the quality of the statue, it was clear it was an antique. Harvey looked at it for a few times, then set
his eyes on the wooden fish.
"Enough with your nonsense!" Esther yelled.
"Since you can't get anyone to help..."
"You'll have to pay up."
Esther's eyes were filled with murderous intent, as if she had Simon under total control.
"Only you were standing around here. The statue fell as soon as you came."
"Are you saying that a ghost did it?"
"Pay up already! Stop yapping!"
A group of beautiful workers came forward to ridicule Simon.
"Pay what you're owed!"
"You broke the statue!'
Besides that, a few righteous people in the crowd stepped out to scream and curse at Simon.
Harvey watched them curiously, then looked at Esther. He could see a playful look in her eyes; this was just a game
to her.
Simply put, she was already bored with playing such tricks.
"This is slander!" Simon yelled.
He still refused to give up.
"Call the cops, then! We'll look at the surveillance footage!"
"If I did touch the statue..."
"I'll take responsibility!"
"If there's no proof, then don't expect me to take the blame!"
Gabriel was drenched in a cold sweat, but spoke up as well.
"Yeah! At least show us some proof!"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Proof?" Esther asked.
"We're proof enough!"
"There are so many eyes on you right now!"
Esther shot back, smiling.
"I'm sorry, but we don't have footage here."
"That said, witnesses are enough for the police."
She clapped her hands. Several actors stepped out of the crowd to testify.
Simon was boiling with anger, and gritted his teeth.
"You b*stard! This is insane..."
"I'll get Silas to stand up for me, no matter what!"
"Enough talk," Esther snarled.
"Even your father won't do you any good here!"
Esther glared coldly at him.
"Either you show me the money, or you call the cops."
"You choose."
