“Don’t forget, it was you who committed the murder first! I’m not holding you legally responsible and am willing to settle this matter with money, which was already a favor on my part. You lot better not be ungrateful!TM
The old man spoke each word harshly. He refused to let go of his son’s death, clearly intending to extort as much as possible.
Derek knew what he was thinking. Although fifty million wasn’t a lot for him, money doesn’t grow on trees. It wasn’t something to be given away easily.

Thus, he remained firm and refused, “I’ve already said that I will not give you fifty million. Either you up with another price or do whatever you want. Your son’s incident is indeed partly our responsibility, but we will only compensate what we should, not be your cash cow.”
After that, Derek told his assistant, “Cyrus, please escort these people out. Tell them to come back when they’ve thought it through.”
“Yes.” Cyrus nodded curtly.
He then approached the elderly people. “Everyone, this way please.”
“Are you trying to kick us out?”
The elder was immediately displeased, “No way, we haven’t settled this yet! Fifty million, and not a penny less. If you don’t pay up, we’ll take you to court.”
Derek felt even more helpless and decided to go all out, “Fine, take us to court if you want. Cyrus, get them out of here.”
“Yes.” Cyrus nodded and called the security guards from outside.
The security guards each held an iron rod in their hands, appearing incredibly menacing. It seemed as if
who dared to defy them would be met with a brutal beating.

The two elderly individuals were initially quite stubborn, but upon seeing the situation, they decided against making things harder for themselves.
They said viciously, “Just wait. If you don’t give us fifty million, we will definitely take you to court!”
With that, they left with their daughter–in–law and grandchild.
The large reception room finally quieted down.

Madelyn let out a sigh of relief and looked at her father. “Dad, do you think they’ll really take us to court?”
“Who knows,” Derek said angrily. “If they want to sue, go ahead. Fifty million? It’s obvious extortion!”
Madelyn tried to comfort Derek. “Dad, calm down. Don’t worry, we’ll find a way to solve this.”
“Sigh…” Derek sighed deeply, resigning himself to the fact that this was the only way.

Meanwhile, at Ingram Manor, Janessa was sitting on the living room sofa, watching the live media coverage of the Thornton Corporation building and laughing heartily.
“This is killing three birds with one stone, and all effortlessly.” Rachel also laughed smugly.
“But I don’t quite understand. Why you must cause trouble for Madelyn?”
Rachel had always been unclear about this.
What kind of grudge can make my niece hate the daughter of the Thornton family so deeply? Is it simply because she was Sebastian’s fiancée?
Janessa laughed coldly.
“Aunt Rachel, you might not understand. Some people are just born enemies. You won’t be at peace until you crush them.”
In other words, Madelyn was her arch–enemy, and she would fight to the end.
Hearing that, Rachel nodded. “I get it. Your hatred for this woman is just like ypur mother’s hatred for Scarlet back then. Okay, since that’s the case, I will definitely help you.”
“Really? Aunt Rachel, you’re the best!”
Janessa’s face lit up with joy, and Rachel smiled kindly.
Meanwhile, the victim’s family had already started preparing legal documents,
They hired a reasonably priced lawyer and briefly explained the situation.
The lawyer confidently assured them, “Don’t worry, I will send a lawyer’s letter to Thornton Corporation and also send a copy to the media.”
“Good, good, we’ll leave it to you.”
The two elderly people nodded in satisfaction..
The lawyer then prepared the letters, sending one to Thornton Corporation and the other to the media.
Within two hours, the media exposed the letter, causing an uproar online once again.
The letter stated: Thornton Corporation are responsible for someone death but is unwilling to provide any compensation. How can the deceased rest in peace?
These few words ignited the public’s sense of justice, and everyone stood up to criticize Thornton Corporation.
Suddenly, the media was filled with harsh words against Thornton Corporation, and many large public
accounts followed at sireading negative news about the company

Beyond this, countless unpleasant words were thrown around.
The situation left everyone at Thornton Corporation in a state of panic.
The scandal severely impacted the company’s stock price, which plummeted continuously.

Shareholders were furious, rapidly selling off their shares, and Thornton Corporation’s stock was viewed as a death sentence, with no one daring to buy it back.
Derek watched this unfold, his spirit deteriorating. He sighed so much that he felt utterly powerless
Finally, he couldn’t bear it any longer and discussed with Madelyn, “Madelyn, don’t you think we should just take out the fifty million and senle this quickly?”
Madelyn shook her head firmly. “No. Fifty million is already outrageous Why should our company be at
sucker?
“But if we don’t pay this amount, this issue might never end. I can’t bear to see our company being cursed like this…
Derek was extremely distressed. He had built this company from scratch and always maintained a high reputation in the industry,
Now, the scandal had plunged the company into endless condemnation.
Derek couldn’t stand it, so he contemplated making a compromise with the elderly couple.
However, the more severe the situation became, the more Madelyn refused to give in.
Her gaze was resolute. “Dad, no matter what, we absolutely cannot give them this money. In fact, I investigated the factory last time. The cause of that employee’s death is very suspicious. It was definitely not an accident. Our company isn’t responsible at all. So, if those elderly people insist on making trouble, I have a way to deal with them.”
