Chapter 244 Punish the Villain

Cynthia beckoned, and Bill handed her a microphone.

“Everyone, be quiet!” Cynthia’s crisp and sweet voice made the excited crowd quiet for a moment.

The leader reacted and immediately shouted to Cynthia angrily, “Screw you. What are you, a woman,

getting involved with? Ask Mr. Smith to come out. He is the company’s president and must apologize to

us in person. What are you, a woman doing here? We are not sympathetic people. If something

happens to you, you deserve it.”

Being inflamed, the other people rushed towards Cynthia maliciously. Some were disgusting and

wanted to take advantage of her.

Bill’s eyes turned cold, and he raised his hand slightly. Then the bodyguards behind him directly

surrounded Cynthia to prevent them from approaching her.

At first, Bill and his brothers were a little restrained. Cynthia sneered and ordered, “For those who are

out of rules and go too far, just do it directly!”

Although the workers‘ families were incited to come over, they were still very reserved. Ivan must send

those who acted so arrogantly and used force.

Bill got the order. He directly grabbed someone’s wrist and turned it back violently when he saw

someone trying to touch Cynthia.

The man screamed, which was very useful. Instantly, everyone else didn’t try anything and stopped.

But after a while, the leader came to his senses and shouted, “What? Is Smith Group going to bully us?

You even attacked us. Where’s the justice?”

“Justice?” Cynthia picked up the microphone and said clearly and coldly, “You are human, and what

about Smith Group employees? You can fight us, but we can’t even fight back? You did that and judged

us? Don’t you feel unreasonable and ashamed?”

“Let me tell you. We can talk. But if you dare to hurt anyone of Smith Group, we will fight back and not

tolerate it!”

Cynthia’s words astounded them. They didn’t dare to make other small moves for a moment, fearing

Cynthia would make her men fight with them. They took the task to cause trouble, but they tried to be

dramatic and didn’t want to get hurt.

The leader looked Cynthia up and down and said, “Who are you? Why should we trust you? Let Mr.

Smith come out!”

Lloyd said, “This is Mrs. Smith. Mr. Smith is not in the company, and Mrs. Smith will handle all company

affairs.”

Only then did the troublemakers look at Cynthia, who was delicate and beautiful. They didn’t take her

seriously mainly because she looked young and tender and didn’t look like a person from the business

world.

But, finally, they knew she was Mrs. Smith.

“Yes. You can talk to me if you have any problem!” Cynthia smiled gently.

The two workers‘ family members had been cowering and hiding in the crowd. They became

courageous after someone gave them a hint, saying, “Our families got hurt on Smith Group’s

construction site, and they are still being rescued in the hospital. You must pay for all medical

expenses, charge for loss of working time, and future health expenses. You also have to compensate

us if they can’t work because of this accident.”

The family members said as other people told them. They were a little guilty initially but became

increasingly excited and fluent as if seeing a lot of money coming to them.

Cynthia and Lloyd did not change their looks and kept smiling without getting angry.

Ivan’s people were a little confused about Cynthia and her men and waited for their reaction in wonder.

“Have you finished?” Cynthia asked them with a smile.

The family members nodded, “Yes. Smith Group must give us an explanation today.”

“Good!” Cynthia straightened up and looked at them, “If the accident happened because of the problem

with the safety facilities of Smith Group’s construction site, of course, we will compensate your medical

expenses. Besides, if they can’t survive, we will pay two hundred thousand dollars for each family.”

“Two hundred thousand dollars!” People were getting excited. They had taken one hundred thousand

from

Ivan, and they would have three hundred thousand if Smith Group gave them two hundred thousand.

Then they could live better lives.

Those people looked at Cynthia with eager eyes.

Noticing their changes, Cynthia twitched her mouth and said, “However, the premise is that it was

Smith Group’s problem. But we will only pay for their operations if the workers don’t operate properly.

We are not stupid. If someone deliberately framed and damaged Smith Group’s reputation, just wait to

hear from our attorney. Someone ruined our reputation, but I won’t tell you how much we lost so as not

to scare you.”

Those words made the crowd fall silent.

The workers‘ family members opened their eyes wide and stammered, “We have to repay?”

“Of course!” Cynthia made a surprised look, “You know the law. If it’s our fault, we will be responsible

and meet all requirements for compensation. But if it is your fault, you have to compensate us because

you ruined our reputation and made us lose a lot. You can go to jail for a few years if you don’t have the

money.”

“Go to jail!” Ordinary people had a natural fear of going to jail.

After Cynthia said this, the honest family members immediately took two steps back and looked at the

people who ordered them to come here in panic. The family members wouldn’t say anything, no matter

how those people winked.

They knew they had taken the bad money and made their families risk their lives to frame the Smith

Group. They knew what was right and wrong very well.

They dared not talk nonsense because they had scruples.

“We accept and don’t want the compensation.” The older family member flinched first.

His father was still lying in the hospital to let him marry a wife and buy a house. He was instigated and

lured by money, so he came because of a moment of weakness. Now Mrs. Smith said they would

assign blame. If the company looked into him, he had to go to jail.

It was not acceptable. He had to marry and have children and couldn’t go to jail.

After he took the lead, other people also wanted to leave, saying they would not hold the Smith Group

responsible. Even Ivan’s men began to panic when they saw others change their minds.

That was different from what they had imagined. How could those family members be scared so

easily?

“Everyone, don’t be fooled by this woman. She doesn’t dare to sue us. It was Smith Group’s fault. They

cherish their reputation and dare not sue us. Come back, don’t be frightened by her. You’ll get nothing if

you are frightened back. Won’t you regret it?”

But no matter how loudly he yelled, the family members had already decided. They knew they couldn’t

beat the Smith Group. It was not about their power. However, they took the money to frame the Smith

Group, and they would lose if the Smith Group sued them. When that happened, they not only had to

compensate but would go to jail. It was not worth it.

The family members would go to jail instead of those behind them!

Ivan’s men stopped the family members and didn’t let them go. Cynthia, Lloyd and Bill watched them

harm each other.

The leader secretly glanced at Cynthia, while threatening the family members, “How did you promise

us before? Remember you took money from our boss. If you don’t complete the task, I won’t let you go

even if the Smith Group spares you.”

The people beside him also stared at the workers‘ families, pretending to be persecuting them.

The family members realized they were in trouble, and both were difficult to mess with, and they

wouldn’t get the money easily. They had no choice but to turn back to see if Cynthia was still tough.

One of the rough–skinned middle–aged women was ready to risk everything. She wanted to take a

chance. If she won, she would get more money. Her son could buy a car or a house. Thinking of that,

she sat on the ground and cried.

“I want Smith Group’s compensation. My man is still in the hospital and hasn’t woken up yet. The

doctor

said he would have many surgeries. We are poor and can’t afford it. You have to pay for us. Otherwise,

we will make a scene with the media. Then everyone will know what Smith Group really is, and you

took the workers‘ lives!”

Cynthia’s face was as cold as a layer of frost. She thought she would pay for the medical expenses and

would not sue them if they returned and gave up making trouble. After all, they struggled for their lives.

But when she saw the woman crying and cursing, she took back that bit of pity.

Some people deserved sympathy, some people didn’t. Otherwise, they would bite you back.

“Ungrateful.”
