Chapter - 1057

Finally, the whole deception unfolded in front of William’s eyes.

As it turned out, not only was Jeff not as wealthy and successful as he had claimed he was but had also gotten into massive trouble.

He had crashed Caesar’s Phaeton and urgently needed to compensate Caesar with a new car, so he had tricked him into investing six hundred thousand to the so-called get-rich-quick scheme that he constantly boasted about.

The worst part now was that the bastard was dead, which also meant that he wouldn’t see any of his money ever again.

At this moment, his heart hurt so much. It hurt more than the physical pain he suffered.

Caesar was a little relieved as William was not as insane as he had been earlier, and said, “So, now you know this car is mine and I can drive it without any issues, okay?”

Although Caesar found William disdain, he knew it would be wiser for him to keep his distance away from him after seeing his crazy state.

He’d seen a lot of people in the underworld after so many years, so he knew that this kind of person was actually very hazardous and he shouldn’t mess with them. If he went on provoking him, he was very likely to go all out and fight.

It simply wasn’t worth the risk, and it was best not to make him more anxious.

William felt as if the sky was collapsing on him.

He didn’t even dare to think about what he should do in a week’s time.

Some of the online money lenders would start their repayment next week and he didn’t know what they would do to him if he couldn’t pay up.

Seeing William’s devastating state, Caesar didn’t want to have anything to do with him anymore, so he quickly started the car as soon as he got into it and drove away.

Sitting on the floor alone, William cried his eyes out as the exhaust of the Phaeton blew towards his face. Mixed with blood and dust on his face, his tears kept streaming down his cheeks, leaving two obvious bloody tear marks.

His friend who had come with the tow truck finally jumped out of the truck after the commotion subsided. He walked up to him, squatted down, patted his shoulder, and asked, “Hey, William, do you want me to call the police for you?”

William sobbed in between his cries, “I’m done. The guy who pulled me into the trap is also dead. What’s the point of calling the police…”

The man sighed softly since he didn’t know what William had gone through, and asked, “Hey, do you still need to tow your car?”

William turned to him and shouted furiously, “Are you fucking blind? Didn’t you see that the guy has already driven the car away?! What the fuck do I have to tow?”

The man frowned in dismay and thought, ‘What the hell? If it weren’t for me shouting at them, you would’ve been beaten to death! Now I’m here to keep you company and care about you, this is how you treat me?! Okay, go ahead with your act! I’m done!’

He huffed contemptuously, stood up, and said, “Since you don’t need my service, I’ll leave now.”

Shaking his head as if something struck his mind, William quickly said, “Hey, give me back my eight hundred dollars before you go!”

The man glared at him in disbelief and chided, “Are you fucking kidding me? Do you think I’ve come all the way here for free? I work in a fucking car repair workshop! Once I come out, the workshop will assume that I’ve started a consignment. I have to report the payment to the shop when I return regardless of the car’s existence!”

William was equally agitated. “I don’t care about your excuses, it’s none of my business! All I know is that you didn’t tow my car, so you have to give me my money back!”

The man rolled his eyes in annoyance. “You don’t understand human’s language, do you? My workshop requires that a fee should be charged when a truck is assigned out! If I give you back the money, what should I do when I go back and the shop asks me for money?”

William squinted and said coldly, “What the fuck do I care? Again, it’s none of my fucking business! Now give me back my money!”

The man didn’t expect William to be so stubborn and unreasonable, he shouted, “People like you are so hopeless. You got what you deserved, bastard! You should be bankrupt for all I care!”
