Chương 25: Traffic Accident
Alex's car pulled up in front of a restaurant, with Kate on his arm as they entered. The waiter approached them with a smile and apologized, "I'm terribly sorry, but we don't have any private rooms left. May I offer you a seat in the main dining area?"
Kate nodded with a smile, and she and Alex found an empty table in the dining hall and sat down. No sooner had they sat down than Kate's phone rang. She picked it up and answered, "Hello, Dad... What? Hit by a car, Alex and I will be right there."
Kate stood up and said to Alex anxiously, "Alex, my dad has been hit by a car. We need to hurry."
"Don't worry, Kate, is your father seriously injured?" Alex asked, holding Kate's hand.
Kate said to Alex as they walked, "My dad said he's not hurt, but the driver won't let him leave, insisting that my dad should pay for the damage to his car."
"What! The person is not injured, yet the car is damaged. This car is too fragile," Alex said angrily.
Alex drove to the scene where Kate's father had his accident, and saw a crowd of onlookers gathered by the roadside. He parked his car in a space on the side of the road and then led Kate into the crowd.
A Mercedes-Benz S600 was parked in the center of the crowd, with its front wheel over a bicycle. Two men stood beside the car, incessantly berating Kate's father, Blake, who was so angry that his face turned red, and he trembled with rage, unable to utter a word.
Kate rushed to Blake and asked with concern, "Dad, are you alright? You scared me to death."
Seeing his daughter and future son-in-law, Blake managed a smile and said, "Kate, Alex, you're both here. Nothing much happened. They just hit me and won't let me go. I had no choice but to call Kate."
"Uncle Blake, don't worry, I'll handle this," Alex said with a smile to Blake. He walked up to the two men, examined the crushed bicycle, and then looked at the two men with a stern expression, and said coldly, "The bicycle is ruined by your car, so why won't you let him go? Give me a reasonable explanation, or you will have a very bad day."
The two men looked at Alex with disdain. One of them, wearing sunglasses, pointed to a minor scratch on the car and said, "Kid, our boss's car got scratched. You have to compensate for that, right?"
Alex looked at the barely noticeable scratch and sneered, "It's almost invisible to the naked eye. Besides, according to traffic rules, you're at fault. Stop embarrassing yourselves here and take this broken car away."
Upon hearing Alex's words, the men's expressions changed. The one with sunglasses cursed, "Kid, you must be blind. This is a Mercedes-Benz S600! Your parents might not even be able to afford a tire with their annual income."
Alex said to the two men with a smile, "This tire is really expensive. I'd better take it off and take it home for my collection."
"Make way! Make way!" Several traffic police pushed through the onlookers and approached the car. After one look at the situation, they knew what had happened. The leading officer asked, "What's going on here?"
The young man with sunglasses raised his head and said, "Officer, our car got scratched. What do you suggest we do?"
The leading officer looked at the young man and said in a low voice, "Buddy, you were driving the wrong way when you made the turn. If there's an accident, you bear the main responsibility."
"Damn it, you know, our boss's car is such that not even the traffic police in City J dare to stop it," the young man in sunglasses yelled at the police.
The police officer looked down at the license plate, 88888. This plate from City J and the car itself indicated that the owner must be of a significant status, definitely not someone they could afford to offend. The officer turned to Alex and said sternly, "Since you scratched their car, compensate them quickly and don't block the traffic here."
Blake indignantly said, "It's clear they violated the traffic rules and hit me. Why should I compensate?"
Alex looked at the traffic police and said, "You are responsible for the traffic order on this road, right? If there is a serious traffic jam on this road, will you be punished?"
"Don't you threaten us, the police. With just one bicycle, you think you can block this six-lane road? Compensate them honestly and don't look for trouble, or we'll detain you," the leading officer said to Alex.
Alex took out his phone, called Hugh, and said, "Hey, are you rested? I've had a bit of an incident on Silverbrook Avenue. Mobilize everyone in the gang to block Silverbrook Avenue for me."
After the call, Alex looked at the traffic police and said, "In a moment, I'll let you appreciate a spectacular sight."
In less than five minutes, countless cars came from both ends of Silverbrook Avenue, and the sound of horns filled the air. Sedans, trucks, buses, and even bulldozers and excavators came to a halt where Alex stood.
Alex looked around and saw the entire road blocked, and he nodded with satisfaction, saying to the dumbfounded traffic police, "This scene is quite spectacular, isn't it?"
The traffic police looked at the tightly blocked road and felt like dying. The leading officer said with a sorrowful face, "Young man, don't tease us. We also have a tough time!"
Alex said with a smile, "You brought all this upon yourselves, don't blame me."
More than a thousand people got out of the cars on the road, waving machetes and iron rods in their hands, and shouting "Alex! Alex!" in unison.
Hugh got out of a BMW, leading a hundred or so men in black suits with sunglasses, and approached Alex respectfully, saying, "Good day, Chairman," and the hundred or so people behind him also bowed and shouted, "Good day, Chairman."
The traffic police saw Hugh, and their legs cramped. Who in Province G didn't know the general manager of Imperial Holdings? Seeing Hugh respectfully call Alex "Chairman," they knew they were done for, and their police uniforms were definitely not going to be worn anymore.
The two young men who got out of the Mercedes were so scared that their faces turned green, and they stammered to Alex, "We were wrong!Spare us!"
"Hehe, you also know you were wrong! But it's too late!" Alex said with a smile.
Hugh turned his head and shouted to his men behind him, "Disable these two men and smash this car."
A pair of beautiful eyes quietly watched everything from the back seat of the Mercedes, with no trace of fear in the gaze, and every time the gaze swept over Alex's body, a strange light flashed. Another girl dressed as a secretary on the back seat asked in a low voice, "Chairman, do I need to get out of the car and apologize to that young man?"
The woman, called the Chairman, on the back seat withdrew her gaze from the window and said lightly to the secretary beside her, "No rush, let Dean and Cole suffer a bit first. They have been with me for a long time and have become a bit arrogant. I hope they can remember this lesson and broaden their horizons, not just thinking that City J is a place where dragons and tigers are hidden."
"Chairman, I understand," the girl nodded.
The woman in the car saw her two subordinates being beaten almost unrecognizable and turned to the girl beside her and said, "Iris, let's go out."
The members of the Reaper gang were about to smash the car with iron rods when the door of the Mercedes opened, and an elegant and mature woman with a charming demeanor and a girl in a professional suit got out of the car. The woman's beautiful eyes stared at Alex, a faint smile appeared on her face, and her smile was like a warm breeze blowing in the cold winter, warming people's hearts.
