Murray cfrom a well-off family, but he made his way to where he is today through his relentless hustle.

He had encountered plenty of folks like Maisie and Farley before.

All high and mighty in their speech, but deep down, it was all about squeezing out a bit more cash during

negotiations.

Sure enough-

Maisie's eyes flickered: "Since you're being so straightforward, I'll cut to the chase. The harm you've done to my

daughter is done, and compensation is due. We're not asking for much, just this amount..." She stretched out her

hand..

Murray raised an eyebrow.

Maisie: "Fifty million, not a penny less!"

"Ha..." This time, Murray genuinely laughed.

Not out of anger or fury, but because he truly found it absurd.

Farley, too, was stunned by his own mom's outrageous demand.

Weren't they initially talking about five hundred thousand?

How did two zeros get added?!

Maisie: "What's so funny? My daughter's youth, her body, her health, they can't be measured in money!"

Murray smirked. "So, they can't be measured in money, or are they just worthless? Think carefully before you

speak."

How many times had Millie tried to play him, and he hadn't minded, considering she had been by his side for a

while. And now these people dared to ask for money? Really, desperation had driven them mad!

"What do you mean?" Maisie's face darkened, "How dare you say my daughter is worthless?!"

"Because she's a cheat. Throwing herself at men, scheming to get pregnant, and then ending it all on her own."

Maisie's gaze shifted slightly.

Clearly, she knew the ins and outs.

Murray's smile was taunting: "You seem to be far from innocent yourself."

Maisie exploded like a cat whose tail had been stepped on: "Oh, you heartless jerk! After all the horrible things

you've done, now you cto bother us? In our town, someone like you would have been thrashed by now!"

"You ruined my daughter's honor, and now you want to shirk responsibility? I'll tell you-no way!"

"If you won't pay, then marry her! Take responsibility!"

Murray was expressionless.

This time, he didn't even feel like laughing.

It turns out Millie's shamelessness and greed were inherited.

Maisie, however, failed to notice the cold flicker in the man's eyes and continued:

"Fifty million to settle this, and we'll pretend it never happened. We won't bother you again. How about it, isn't

that a good deal?"

Murray: "Firstly, Millie isn't worth that much; secondly, your threats have no effect on me."

"And lastly-get as far away fromas possible! Call security!"

At the command, the assistant immediately picked up the phone.

Security arrived swiftly, escorting Maisie and her son out of the building.

"Ouch-" Maisie yelped as she landed on her behind.

"Mom Are you okay?" Farley rushed to help her up, but he was hardly in better shape himself.

His hair was a mess, and his T-shirt was wrinkled from the scuffle.

Using the revolving door for support, Maisie stood up and cursed: "What a load of crap! That damned Murray!

Thinks he can throw us out?! Asshote... Fuck, we finally make it in, and Murray's just impenetrable, won't budge

an inch!"

"Mom, what if he doesn't agree? Are we not getting any money? It's all your fault, wasn't it supposed to be just

five hundred thousand? Why'd you suddenly jump to fifty million? You think these rich folks

Swn idiots?"
