Chapter 2823
Charity frowned and asked, “Huxley is already dead. What about the compensation-”
The police officer sighed. “We’ve looked for Huxley’s wife and parents several times. In fact, the Todd family
is pretty wealthy, but they’re reluctant to compensate at all on the grounds of Huxley’s death. The Todd
family acts like a deadbeat, so it’s no wonder they raised such a sc*mbag.”
“I heard Huxley earns over 100 million dollars every year, yet his family is so stingy when it comes to paying
compensation of one million dollars. For some people, that miserly amount of money can save their lives, ”
the traffic officer could not help but grumble.
Charity was not surprised at all. Most rich people were said to have a lower moral baseline compared to
ordinary people. “According to the law, even if the perpetrator is dead, his or her family needs to pay
compensation.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Yeah, but this requires the victim’s appeal, and filing a lawsuit doesn’t take one or two days only, what’s
more, the Todd family can afford a good lawyer, so they might win. However, the victim can’t afford to wait.
She needs the money. Miss Neeson, it’s way too easy for people like you to earn 100 million dollars, but to
many people, they can never earn this much in their lifetime.” 1
Charity could tell that the officers were complaining. Even so, she was not mad. After some thought, she
said, “How much does their medical fee cost? I’ll pay for it. No matter what, I’m responsible for it.”
Upon hearing her say that, the traffic and police officers became embarrassed.
“I do charity every year.” Charity explained, “Of course, I hope this will be kept confidential because if I pay
everything, the Todd family surely won’t pay a penny. Regardless of whether Huxley is dead, the Todd family should
pay however much they’re supposed to. They must not pay a penny less to the family of the girl whom Huxley
killed.”
“That’s for sure. That family is no fool.” The female police officer looked at charity in a much gentler manner. “Miss
Neeson, I thank you on behalf of them.”
“I have no right to receive thanks. They’re all innocent victims,” Charity said glumly.
“You just wanted to stand up for the girl in the hotel.”
Charity was guilty. In fact, all she wanted to do was take revenge against the Patterson family.
“We will take our leave and not disturb you further. If there are updates on this case, we might need to take a
statement from you about what happened.”
The police rose to their feet.
When Charity saw them out at the door, she heard the female officer, who looked down on the phone and glanced
at it, say, “I think Chester’s ward is right upstairs.”
“Are you going to look for Chester to record his statement?” Charity asked.
“Yes. We should’ve done that earlier, but we heard that he hadn’t been able to speak and that his condition had
been unstable.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThough, he seems much better today.”
The female police officer thought about the relationship between Charity and Chester and paused for a
moment before she said, “His position is a lot worse than yours.”
“Is it because of Huxley’s death?”
“Not only that, but it’s illegal to drive in the opposite direction of traffic on the highway. Although he did it in
order to save someone, society would be in chaos if everyone acted like him.
Furthermore, his actions caused a pile-up involving a big lorry and a small car, and there were over ten
casualties. Four of them are seriously injured and currently under emergency treatment in the ICƯ.”
The traffic officer said, “I really have no idea how to describe this person. He’s just a psycho.”
“Please give me the list of casualties involved in the accident he caused. I’m willing to pay the
compensation,” Charity said with difficulty.
“No need. Chester’s assistant compensated everyone and even paid extra. Even so, I must say that ordinary
people’s lives are just as important.”
With that, the officer headed upstairs.
