Chapter 521: Can we not go to Belfard anymore?


    “Whatever amount I can im for myself, you all can get the same. We will all have the same amount. There won’t be anyone who can get more while others get less. There will be no such unfair treatment.”


    “However, if any of you feel that thepensation amount doesn’t meet your expectations and you’re not satisfied, I might not be able to satisfy you. If you want a higher amount, you can also opt out now.” Harrington Lawrence made it clear to them in advance.


    “Mr. Lawrence, may I ask, in our situation, how much can we im?” Someone asked.


    Wendy rke also pricked up her ears, wanting to know their ns.


    The more they knew, the clearer their understanding, and the better they could respond with moreprehensive preparations on their side.


    Harrington Lawrence smiled and said, “In my experience, we can each im 1 million.”


    “Holy crap!”


    Everyone was shocked.


    This was much more than they had expected.


    Many customers thought that there were so many people dining at the restaurant.


    It would be nice to im tens of thousands of dors per person.


    At most, it would be around 100,000.


    Unexpectedly, Harrington Lawrence asked for 1 million just like that!


    As expected from a big shotwyer from Capital City, experienced in worldly matters. They dare to ask for 1 million just for seeing a mouse!


    Fortunately, they all agreed to let Harrington Lawrence represent them.


    Otherwise, if they did it themselves, they wouldn’t know how much money they would lose.


    With 1 million, one could buy a big house in Nork City.


    Wendy rke almost called out.


    1 million per person, there were more than fifty people present.


    Why don’t they just go rob a bank?!


    Wendy rke pinched her leg hard to restrain herself and not lose herposure.


    If she called out now, wouldn’t they seize the opportunity to find fault?


    It seems that they must find awyer on their side now.


    It’s impossible not to find awyer.


    It’s not like they would really be pressed intopensating 1 million per person by Harrington Lawrence, right?


    On Harrington Lawrence’s side, he took out another business card and handed it to Wendy rke: “Miss rke, I am now the representativewyer for our side. If the restaurant has any matters to discuss, you can contact me directly.”


    “The customers here, as my clients, cannot be directly contacted and negotiated with by the restaurant. No matter what happens, it must go through me,” Harrington Lawrence said.


    Wendy rke stiffly epted the business card and heard Harrington Lawrence say, “Later, I will send awyer’s letter to the restaurant and formally sue in court.”


    Without waiting for Wendy rke’s reply, Harrington Lawrence turned around and addressed the customers: “Everyone, let’s find arger, quieter ce where I can exin the details to you. By the way, please leave your contact information so that I can constantly report the progress of the case to you andmunicate with you.”


    “Yes, yes, yes!”


    Everyone agreed in unison.


    It felt like they were all leaning on a big tree, feeling very confident.


    Finally, when Harrington Lawrence left with the customers in an imposing manner,


    The restaurant was finally empty and quiet.


    But the matter was far from over. In fact, it had just begun, and there was still a huge mess for Wendy rke to clean up behind.


    Wendy rke didn’t get home until midnight after working at the restaurant.


    Because of the restaurant incident, Christy Xenos and Joshua rke were unable to sleep and waited for her.


    During dinner, Wendy rke didn’t exin very clearly.


    But from the few sentences she said, they could tell that the restaurant had encountered something serious.


    Otherwise, she wouldn’t have left without eating and rushed away.


    And she didn’t return until midnight.


    Although Christy Xenos and Joshua rke couldn’t help, they were certainly worried.


    When Wendy rke came back and saw the light still on in the living room,


    Hearing her footsteps, Christy Xenos and Joshua rke ran out together.


    “Wendy, how’s the restaurant situation? Is it very serious?” Christy Xenos asked worriedly.


    “Yeah, how is it now?” Joshua rke asked.


    “The situation is difficult to handle. The customers at the restaurant today happened to include a famouswyer from Belfard City. He has represented the customers and ns to impensation together. Each person wants to im 1 million.” Wendy rke kicked off her shoes and didn’t bother to put them away, then entered the living room.


    “1 million per person?” Christy Xenos wailed when she heard this, “How many customers are there in total!”


    Their restaurant was always bustling with business and often full.


    Seeing Wendy rke walk towards the living room, Christy Xenos quickly followed.


    Joshua rke picked up Wendy’s shoes from behind and ced them neatly in the shoe cab before entering the living room.


    “I didn’t count carefully, but roughly speaking, there are at least fifty or sixty people,” Wendy rke said irritably.


    “Fifty or sixty?” Christy Xenos wailed even louder.


    This was a smaller number than their usual customers.


    But Christy Xenos couldn’t feel any happiness in it.


    “Let’s calcte it as fifty people. With 1 million per person, that’s 50 million!” Christy Xenos eximed.


    Not to mention 50 million, even giving away 10,000 to unrted people would make her cry bloody tears.


    This 50 million was even more painful than taking Christy Xenos’ life.


    “Of course, it’s impossible to pay that much.” Wendy rke said, “The restaurant doesn’t even make that much in profit per year.”


    Although the restaurant business seemed morous, she had to manage everything from top to bottom.


    Taking care of various departments, annual inspections, and ensuring that various documents all passed smoothly.


    She also had to deal with the underworld so they wouldn’t cause trouble.


    Not to mention the cost of ingredients, utilities, decorations, tableware, and the sries of every employee from the chef to the waiter.


    After deducting these costs, the annual profit wasn’t really that impressive.


    The rke family enjoyed a morous lifestyle in Nork City.


    But the cost of living in Nork City was also low.


    The consumption level and housing prices were not high.


    Of course, putting all that aside,


    Even if she made several hundred million a year, she still wouldn’t be willing to pay fifty or sixty million inpensation.


    What a joke.


    Wendy rke thought that even giving several thousand dors per person would be excessive.


    “It’s too weird. I think someone nned this in advance,” Wendy rke said. “Because today’s customers always seemed to grasp the timing of every step so well. Thinking about it carefully, there was even a sense of rhythm to it.”


    Wendy rke detailed the entire incident to Christy Xenos and Joshua rke.


    Though the two couldn’t help,


    Wendy rke really needed to vent,


    To keep her emotions in check.


    After finally finishing her exnation, Wendy rke stood up and poured herself a ss of water.


    “Now, thatwyer Harrington Lawrence represents the customers. He said that he will send me awyer’s letter and start the legal proceedings,” Wendy rke said.


    “So, I have to find a goodwyer to deal with this,” Wendy rke said solemnly.


    “Then… can we still go to Belfard City?” Christy Xenos remembered this matter.


    With such a big problem in their own restaurant, Wendy rke certainly couldn’t leave.


    So how could they go to Belfard City to find Cindy rke?


    Wendy rke thought about it and said, “Go!”


    “You’re still going?” Joshua rke asked in surprise.


    “I really can’t leave. I have to stay here to deal with the restaurant’s problem. This time the incident is far too serious,” Wendy rke said.
