Chapter 106 - billion cheque

"Dammn. What a long day" she murmurs. The abrupt mild accident made her already alcohol-polluted mind in a daze. Quickly after, she glances at the rear mirror to see if she inflicted an injury.

Although she seemed fine and no additional injuries have been made. However, her drunken appearance is evident. Thus, even if she was not at fault, it is still a grave offense if she was reported drunk driving. It's not that she was afraid of getting caught, but rather, her main concern is that it might worry Sebastian Yue.

Seraphina sighs heavily as she leans her tired back and head against the black leathered upholstery. She closed her eyes as if to compose herself just in case this minor accident was orc_h_e_s_trated.

Not long after, Seraphina heard a light knock on the car's window.

Slowly opening her eyes, an unfamiliar decent looking man that seemingly on his late 30's was knocking on her door with a concerned look. She unhurriedly pressed the electronic button for her window to slightly roll down revealing only her eyes. Seraphina's sharp gaze met the man's eyes. He neither flinches nor surprised about her obvious hostility.

Instead, the man offered her a smile that did not reach his eyes, he inquired. "Miss, are you okay? I'm sorry our ride lost control of its brakes," he explained with a sorry tone.

"I'm fine. Don't worry about it." Seraphina responded emotionlessly. Based on her observation of the man's body language, he seemed he was not lying.

She saw the man sighs in relief and even with this cold night, the man's slightly trembling shoulder and the forming sweats on his forehead probably due to fear with the unexpected event.

"Uh, Miss, this might come unconventional but can we settle this matter personally?" The man asked in a troubled manner.

Seraphina squints her eyes in skepticism about his abrupt request. Normally, people that experience even a little accident calls for police guidance, albeit, this man demanded to settle it personally.

Making her think that this situation might or might not be on her favor. Thus, she shamelessly pried without being too obvious. She spoke, "settle personally? How can you compensate me then?"

The man briskly pulled his wallet from inside his suit then hand out his calling card with his basic information in it. The design and logo of the small business card was an eye-opener of his position and what company he works for:

Thomas Yang

Administrative Assistant of Han Corporation

010 XXXX XXXX

The moment Seraphina saw the huge Han Corporation logo on the tiny calling card of the man, the corner of her lips slightly curled upward.

'Interesting.' she thought inwardly.

"We'll shoulder all repairs and damages including medical fees, Miss. You can contact me so that can settle this matter." The man spoke after she wordlessly receives his business card.

His expression didn't change much yet, when Seraphina quickly glance at him, she realizes that this man is not only the person on his ride by the way he wants to fix this quietly.

"Han Corporation? How about a billion cheque? My life is precious you see." she humored which made the composed man change his expression from calm to bewilderment in an instant. Seraphina seeing that her brazen remarks made an impact on the man, she arcs her brows as if she was entertained.

After some time, when the man absorbs her words, he spoke in his usual plain voice. "Miss, please do contact me so we can talk about your compensation."

He neither reject nor agrees with her demands which confirmed Seraphina's speculation. She glances at her rear mirror to see the wreck bumper of the car that hit hers.

'Huh, who could it be?' she asked inwardly.

Indeed, someone who has an important position in the Han Corporation must be inside that car. A billion RMB is actually a small amount to shell out if the man involved is a core member of the said company. Seraphina swiftly checks her car's compartment and search for something.

Right away, she found a business card with Henry Man's name on it. She leisurely slips the small card that was clip in between her pointing and middle finger towards the man outside.

Seraphina knew that she was taking a gamble regarding this occurrence. However, she was confident that the result would be in her favor.

When Thomas Yang politely accepts the card she held out, he heard her speak.

"Make an appointment if you want to buy my silence." with that said note, Seraphina wordlessly rolled up the car's window then started her engine. Fortunately, the collision wasn't really that severe and not a big deal -- aside from the damages of her ride's bumper. She then sped off leaving Thomas Yang stood rooted in his position.

When he entered the driver's seat, he amiably hands out the card Seraphina gave him to the dashing man on the back seat.

"Second young master, she gave me this calling card to contact her. Also, she wanted a billion cheque as compensation." Thomas Yang reported courteously to the dashing man. One could tell that it was his boss.

The dashing man who was leisurely perched on the back seat calmly reached out for the calling card. The moment he saw the logo and the company name under the person's information -- a complex smirk formed on the corner of his lips.

"She? Huh, that woman's shamelessness truly knows no bounds." he lightly scoffs. He immediately guessed the person's identity he crashed into by the company name: Yue International Enterprise written on the card she had given. Also, by the outrageous request she wanted as compensation -- it was undoubtedly her.

Thomas Yang who heard his statement was puzzled by his words. 'Second young master knows the lady?' he questioned internally.
