Chapter 190 No Greater Humiliation

He chuckled lightly. “Could you imagine if someone in your family found themselves with money?”

“And they suddenly found themselves accused of something they didn’t do. And your village chief, with

a head clear as mud, will settle the incident privately, and your money will be taken from you.”

He shook his head, “How terrifying.”

The village elders all lowered their heads when they heard what Damien said.

And this unjust village chief. Today, it was Elvis Shaw, but it could be any of them.

tomorrow!

was only interested in helping his family. He had no intention of being a fair village. chief for the

villagers!

The chief was paler than ever. His jaw was clenched tight. “You want me to step down?”

“You’ve only been here for a couple of days, and you want your father-in-law to take on the position of

village chief? Can he do it?”

Damien shook his head. “Of course, he can’t be chief. He is used to a quiet life and just wants to live

without a care in the world.”

“I’m just giving everyone here a choice. After all, he’ll have to continue living in this. village. I can’t

exactly let him be bullied by the chief and the village elders now, can I?”

Murmurs of agreement could be heard from the crowd.

Finally, an elder with a white beard stepped forward. “If that’s the case, Mr. Lenoir. As an outsider, who

do you think is most suitable to be chief?”

Damien poured himself another cup of tea. “I think Jack from next door would be a good candidate.”

“He’s young and promising. He seems like an upright person.” Damien smiled.

The crowd started discussing. Jack did seem like a good candidate!

Ben never thought that this incident would lead to the dismissal of the village chief. “Why Jack?” He

grumbled under his breath. “He can’t even handle his own affairs!”

“Because I like him.”

Damien yawned. “I spoke with Jack during the afternoon, and he told me the village is in a beautiful

location with abundant resources. The land is perfect for farming. However, the village lacks capital for

the initial investment…

“I’m willing to provide the funds for this if you choose him as your new village chief.”

The villagers’ eyes lit up!

It didn’t matter how much they talked or did. Nothing would beat the potential of making more money!

The white-bearded old man was equally as excited. “Mr. Lenoir, are… Are you really willing to invest in

our little village?”

Damien nodded, “Of course. Cherise’s uncle and grandmother are still living here after all.”

Besides, several hundred thousand hardly counted as a significant “investment” for Damien.

“This is a big deal. We will need to hold a village-wide meeting to decide. You’ll have to wait for our

decision!”

The group continued their discussions as the old man led them away.

Once everyone was gone, the room was left with Elvis, his family, the village chief, and Ben and his

daughter.

Damien arched an eyebrow and said calmly, “Apologize.”

Just one word and the village chief hurried to pull Ben and Vivian to their knees. “Mr. Lenoir, we

sincerely apologize. We…”

Ever since they found out how much Damien’s car cost, the chief knew Damien wasn’t someone they

could afford to mess around with!

But the temptation of fifty thousand was too great…

“Don’t apologize to me. Apologize to Uncle Elvis and Cherise.”

Damien raised an eyebrow. “I heard you’ve been making fun of Cherise since she was young and

bullying Uncle Elvis for years.”

Vivian and Ben paled.

There was no greater humiliation than apologizing to Cherise and Elvis!

But…

Compared to compensating fifty thousand, they had no choice but to apologize.

“Elvis, I’m sorry for bullying your family.”

“Cherise, I’m sorry for making fun of you….”
