Chapter 279
"Have a look at it. Call me when you're done," said Jonas.
"Okay."
Scott hung up and calmly watched the video. As the video progressed, the intensity of his gaze changed. The temperature in the room dropped...especially when the video showed how Olivia shoved Naomi to the floor. His gaze narrowed and darkened like never before.
Silence enveloped the room.
The video was not short. It was almost an hour long, but Scott watched every last minute until Naomi and Charles left the restaurant. The video naturally ended.
At that moment, Scott's expression was calm, just as if he had never watched the video, but upon closer look, his gaze was extremely darkened.
He soon called Jonas back.
"You've finished watching it?" asked Jonas.
"Mm."
"I had something to do at the police station when I saw Naomi and Charles coming out from the station. I got someone to look into it. The incident is what you saw on the video."
He summarized everything into short sentences. After a small pause, Jonas said, "Did Connor tell you about it?"
"No."
Scott sounded calm without any expression, but Jonas knew that Scott was fuming.
He was always like that. The angrier he got, the calmer he was. One could barely tell.
"I got my men to stay back in the station. Olivia didn't go to the station and contacted her lawyer instead. Naomi wanted Olivia to apologize Olivia was saying that she would
but
only compensate her monway I
wouldn't apologize. From
see it, I think this will end with monetary compensation."
At that point, Jonas said nothing else. Even if he did not explain it, Scott knew.
The situation was not that serious. Naomi was not really seriously injured Of course, if Naomi insisted on continuing, she could press charges against Olivia and take her to court until Olivia apologized.
However, knowing Naomi's character, she would not do that. She loved her family too much. If this matter blew up, her family would worry. This was not the outcome she wanted.
That was why she would accept the compensation as a warning to Olivia. At the same time, she handled this matter as low-profile as possible.
To Naomi, this was the best outcome.
Scott placed his hand in his pocket. He stood in front of the bar and held his phone in his ear. He looked ahead as if he was in a daze. "Thank you," Scott replied minutes later.
Jonas replied, "It was a coincidence. If not, I wouldn't know about it as well. But... I'm guessing Connor will tell you about it later." They understood Connor. He knew to do the right thing.
"Not important." Scott turned to face
the window. It was already two in the morning. Even if Las Vegras was a bustling entertainment city it was relatively quiet at this hour S
Scott added, "I'm returning the day after tomorrow. Please help me look after her these two days. Don't let anything happen to her." "Okay."
Olivia was still in Herland, which made him fret. Jonas understood. "Just let me know if you need help in any other matters." "Thank you. Just this one."Content rights belong to NôvelDrama.Org.
