Chapter 26 Mr. Palmer!
Kermit saw those people,
He stepped forvard and smiled at the bald man, saying, “Jamel! This is the guy who acted tough in front of me. Help me beat him up!” .
But what happened next was out of Kermit’s expectations.
The bald man, Jamel Shannon, trembled suddenly when he saw Joshua. Jamel knelt down in fear, “Mr. Palmer! I didn’t know that you were here!”
At that moment, Jamel was stunned and speechless.
He felt very unlucky.
Jamel offended Joshua and injured his own left hand yesterday. He received a call from Kermit as soon as he got his left hand bandaged in the hospital.
Jamel was paid to kick someone’s ass by Kermit.
Jamel and Kermit had met a few times in the past. So, when Kermit hired him to beat someone, Jamel came with his men without thinking too much.
He wanted to vent his anger from last night by the way.
Jamel had no idea that it was Joshua.
Joshua had given Jamel a miserable lesson.
How dare Jamel beat Joshua?
Jamel didn’t even dare to look at Joshua!
Of course, Kermit knew nothing about that.
Kermit asked Jamel in surprise, “Jamel, I paid you to beat him. Why are you kneeling on the ground?”
Jamel did not answer Kermit, kneeling there and shivering
Joshua was also surprised that Kermit asked Jamel to teach him a lesson. What a coincidence!
“Are you going to help kermit give me a lesson?”
Jamel quivered and immediately denied il, saying, “How could that be? It’s impossible! Mr. Palmer, this is a misunderstanding!
Joshua nodded. “So, there must be someone deliberately trying to sow discord between
Jamel echoed, “Yes! That’s what I am thinking!”
Joshua narrowed his eyes. “Then, who do you think it is?”
Jamel was an experienced man. He directly stood up and slapped Kermit. “Damn you! How dare you sow discord between me and Mr. Palmer?”
Then, Jamel said to his men, “Hold this bastard down!”
Kermit, who got slapped in the face, was pressed to the ground by the rascals before he knew what was going on.
Kermit panicked. He finally realized that Jamel and Joshua knew each other. Kermit cursed his bad luck.
A big man could take temporary setbacks.
For his safety, Kermit decided to give in first.
He quickly put on an innocent face and said, “This is just a misunderstanding! Jamel, Joshua, I was impulsive and made a mistake! I’m sorry. Could you let it go?”
Jamel did not answer that. He looked at Joshua and waited for Joshua’s reply.
Joshua did not expect Kermit to be such a coward.
If it were someone else, Joshua would directly give him a slap and then let it go.
But it was Kermit,
The Millard family didn’t make a good impression on Joshua. And it wasn’t because of Giselle.
It was because the Millard family’s money was all ill-gotten.
The Millard family’s main business was indoor fitment. To earn more money, they
usually used inferior materials instead of good ones and deceived their customers.
Moreover, in New York, there had been many poisoning incidents due to excessive formaldehyde exposure after the decoration by the Millard Group.
There were even three serious cases in which the residents died of leukemia.
Joshua knew one of the residents.
Back then, a workmate of Joshua’s had finally earned enough money to buy his son a house after working so long. The workmate chose the decoration company of the Millard Group.
Due to excessive formaldehyde exposure, the workmate’s son died of leukemia, and their family went bankrupt.
The workmate asked around for help but got nothing. In the end, he suffered from depression and committed suicide by jumping off the building!
From the start to the end, the Millard Group did not stand up to take any responsibility.
Joshua recognized the arrogance and ruthlessness of capitalists at the time.
Therefore, since he finally got a chance to give Kermit a lecture, Joshua wouldn’t let go of him so easily today!
Joshua looked down at Kermit. “Let it go? Why should I listen to you?
Kermit shrunk his neck. “What do you want?”
Joshua said indifferently, “The problem is easy to solve. You hit my car. If you want me to let go of you, you must pay money for it!”
Kermit was relieved and nodded. “Okay! I will transfer the money to you right now. How much do you want?”
Joshua said lightly, “300 thousand dollars!”
“What?”
Kermit couldn’t believe his ears. “300 thousand dollars? Are you crazy?”
Jamel slapped Kermit in the face.
“Watch your tongue!”
kermit fell aggrieved.
In his opinion, Joshua’s clectric bike wasn’t badly damaged, and 30 dollars would be cnough.
However, Joshua asked for 300 thousand dollars. Even Kermit’s Hummer wasn’t worth that much.
Joshua smiled, “Mr. Millard, you spent 300 thousand dollars on a diamond without any hesitation. What’s wrong with you giving me that much money? Are you going to pay me or not?”
Kermit blushed and said hesitantly, “But your electric bike…”
Before Kermit could finish, Jamel slapped him again. “What do you want to say? Isn’t Mr. Palmer’s bike worth 300 thousand dollars?” Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
Kermit’s face was swollen.
Kermit looked at Jamel with fear in his eyes. He was afraid that Jamel would hit him again. Kermit felt so aggrieved that he was about to cry. “Mr. Palmer, you are a noble man. Your bike must be very valuable!”
Jamel grinned, “Since so, cut the crap and pay the money now. Otherwise, I will have to take fierce action!”
While speaking, Jamel took out a dagger and stabbed it into the ground 4 inches ahead of Kermit.
Kermit was just an average rich man.
He hadn’t seen anything like that before.
Kermit trembled in fear. “I’ll give you the money right now. I will! Please calm down!”
After that, Jamel let go of Kermit. Kermit transferred 300 thousand dollars to Joshua through the phone reluctantly.
In fact, the money Kermit could transfer was no more than 500 thousand dollars. Kermit’s father gave him the money as an investment in his business.
Kermit had just gotten the money, while Joshua soon took more than a half..)
Of course, Kermit was reluctant.
After receiving the money, Joshua finally let it go.
He got on his electric bike and said coldly to Kermit, “Let me give you a word of warning. When you are fooling around, think more about those ordinary people whose lives are ruined by your family. Don’t you feel guilty when you spend ill-gotten money?”
Joshua finished speaking.
Then, he started his electric bike and left without looking back.
