Adam glanced at the car and said, "That's one of our older models. When it was released, it was priced at over
three million. With depreciation, it's worth around 2.6 million now."
"Okay. Have the insurance company cto handle the claim," | instructed.
| turned to Aidan and added, "I'll cover the full cost. Are there any other issues?"
Aidan's face twisted in disgust like he had just tasted something vile. Although | had crashed into his car, there
was nothing he could do about my generous compensation offer.
The people around us remained silent. No one was willing to speak up for him. Even the Morgan family watched
coldly. Celia cast fiery glances at me, completely ignoring Aidan.
What could Aidan do?
He could only grind his teeth in frustration and suppress his hatred, unable to do anything but silently resent me.

accept their fate. Now, they were experiencing that sbitter taste.
It was payback.
| had always understood this feeling of class oppression, so | never liked showing off because there were always
people more powerful than me.
Encouraging that kind of arrogance would only lead to being bullied by those who were stronger.
| would rather live in equality.
Lexie cleared her throat before saying, "Crystal, | think that we've admired the car enough. Why don't you take
Mr. White over there to sit and have stea and snacks? From now on, we're family. As for the car, should we
park it in the lot for now?"
Crystal immediately looked at me, waiting for my response.
| knew that the Morgan family wanted to winover, and though | wasn't fond of their approach, | was willing to
tolerate it for her sake.
"Alright. We'll do as you say, Mrs. Morgan Senior."
Addressing her as such was the surest sign of my acknowledgment.
Lexie immediately looked relieved and smiled. "Good. Let's move the car to the parking lot, and we'll continue
the gathering. You young folks should have a good chat with Mr White."
| hummed in acknowledgment.
"This way, please, Mr. White."
"Mr. White, how did you meet Crystal?"
"Mr. White, what kind of drink do you prefer? I'll get it for you!"
In an instant, everyone gathered around me.

Their attitude had completely shifted from disdain to warmth and kindness. They seemed like entirely different
people, and the atmosphere beccozy and welcoming.
| couldn't help but laugh inwardly, and gave Crystal a knowing looke She, too, seemed helpless. Having grown up
in such a family, she must have gotten used to their behavior long ago.
The gathering continued, but now, | was the center of attention. Not only did the younger people flock around
me, but even the elders of the Morgan family cover to chat, asking about my background and
l.ne
parents and requesting my contact details.
| answered what | could and avoided topics | didn't want to discuss.
Fortunately, they picked up on my reluctance to disclose too much and didn't presswhen | didn't want to
answer.
Joshua, Pablo, and Aidan, who had targetedearlier, didn't dare approach, and the others, afraid of offending
me, also kept their distance. Gradually, they were sidelined.
No one even called them for dinner, and they begrudgingly sat far away from me.
