Chapter 1384: They Met Again

"If I just give you money like this, it proves that I am condoning yourbehavior," Tristan said calmly. "If I allow extortion to happen, thensimilar incidents will probably occur from time to time. You'll extortothers, and others will extort me."

He had a firm grasp of their mentality, making the family members feelguilty...

Tristan wasn't angry, and he spoke logically, "How the elderly persondied can be determined through an investigation. I think you wouldn'twant the results to come out.”

The family members didn't dare to speak...

But Tristan was kindhearted. He wanted to settle the matter and notwaste any more time, as he had a meeting with business partners later.So he told them, “I will give you some money."

The family members, who were sitting on the sofa, looked up at him indisbelief.

Tristan met their gazes and made his own judgment, "Perhaps youencountered difficulties and resorted to this as a last resort." He saidthis because they didn't seem like evil people.

Hearing such magnanimous words from the man, the family memberswere shocked for a few seconds before sliding to their knees ingratitude.

"Thank you... Thank you, Mr. Norwell."

"We have a sick child at home. We really did this out of desperation.We spent all our savings on his treatment.”

Outside the door, Monica peeked inside, watching the scene play outclearly.

When she had come in earlier, Kevin had briefly explained whathappened.

She was initially furious, thinking that this was blatant extortion. Didthey have any shame?

She thought Tristan would coldly follow legal procedures and not let thewrongdoers take advantage, but instead, he reasoned with them andagreed to give them some money.

The family members knelt and kowtowed, full of gratitude. Monica wasmoved but didn't know what to say.

Then the family members left the room, and Monica stepped aside tolet them pass.

As for Tristan? He was still in the reception room.

Monica didn't know what he was thinking, only seeing the tall figurewith his hands in his pockets. She felt a strange sense of pity for him.The police guarding the door left, and Kevin received a call, going tothe entrance to meet the business partners.

Monica saw that he was fine, so she felt relieved.

Just as she was about to sneak away, a voice came from the hallway-"Miss Swain!"

Not only did Saskia Holt's voice make Monica's footsteps falter, but italso reached Tristan's ears. He turned to look upon hearing the voice.In the hallway, Monica's heart skipped a beat as she turned to seeSaskia Holt. "Hey~" she greeted with an awkward smile.

She glanced subconsciously at the door of the reception room, andsure enough, Tristan had come out.

He saw her at once, and their eyes met.

Saskia Holt hesitated for a moment and then quickly slipped away,realizing that it was not the right time for a third person to appear.Tristan just looked at her, his hands in his pockets as he steppedtowards her.

His aura wasn't oppressive, but as he approached her step by step,Monica's heart began to race. She tried to control herself, searchingher mind for a reason to be at the company.

"Um, I..." She didn't know how to explain, but Tristan stopped in front ofher, looking down at her with his considerable height advantage. Theystood less than half a meter apart.

He didn't ask anything, his expression gentle and his gaze deep, as ifhe just wanted to hear what she had to say.
