Chapter 241 The Painful Price
Q. Rowe Price, the founder and CEO! Q. Rowe Price is a well-known venture capital group in America, and its founder, Q. Rowe Price, is hailed as the "God of Venture Capital." As long as she identifies a project, it is guaranteed to be a great success after she invests in it. Many small businesses have grown and become strong because they received investments from her.
When he personally went to Q. Rowe Price Group to seek funding for the project, he had the privilege of meeting this girl. Although they were far apart, he was still greatly shocked to see how respectful Q. Rowe Price's America's Chief Executive, Romer, was towards this girl.
The outside world had no idea that the founder of Q. Rowe Price was actually a girl! His foolish son had unexpectedly provoked two people whom they could never afford to offend in their lifetime!
He almost choked and quickly bowed down to greet her, "Miss Medici, I didn't expect it to be you. If it weren't for your approval of our project and the funding you provided, we wouldn't have the status and position we have today. It can be said that without Q. Rowe Price Group, there would be no River Group..."
As soon as Phillipe heard Q. Rowe Price Group and Miss Medici, he realized that only someone who could make Lucas be so subservient and approve investment projects for Q. Rowe Price Group was the founder, Q. Rowe Price herself. So, this little girl is Q. Rowe Price?
Q. Rowe Price is Abella? Interesting.
Abella didn't expect to expose two identities in one day and felt somewhat speechless.
"Miss Medici, you are the great benefactor of our River Group... My son actually dared to disrespect you..." Lucas turned around, grabbed his son's ear, and came in front of Abella, kicking him down.
"What did you do to Miss Medici just now?"
Lucas seemed indignant, and he took the electric baton from the bodyguard and viciously struck his son's back.
Tim lunged forward, almost in a kneeling position, his eyes turning black from the pain.
He didn't expect his father to be so severe, really beating him to the point of near death!
He trembled and said with a trembling voice after enduring the pain for a while, "It was Jane... She kicked Miss Medici's chair back several times, and I wanted to stand up for her, so I kicked it too..."
"You think you can kick Miss Medici's chair back? I can have your legs cut off! If someone else kicks Miss Medici's chair back and you don't stop them, that would have been fine. But you actually let her continue?"
Lucas lifted the electric baton again and struck his son's back viciously. "Stupid! Useless!"
After beating him, he gave Jane a furious stare.
Jane was terrified, her face pale white, the entire person sat paralyzed on the ground, trembling uncontrollably, "Please, please listen to my explanation..."
"These dirty women always cause trouble for us! Take her away, teach her a lesson!"
After Lucas finished speaking, he looked at his son, who was lying on the ground, unable to crawl up, and stomped on him again, "Apologize, are you dumb?"
Tim, who had been spoiled since childhood and never experienced such hardship, coughed up blood, "Miss Medici, I'm sorry, Phillipe, I won't dare again..."
"Louder!" Lucas yelled.
"Miss Medici, I'm sorry! Phillipe, I'm sorry!!!"
Unexpectedly, Phillipe's fiancée turned out to be the founder of Q. Rowe Price group.
Tim regretted deeply, hating himself for being blind and provoking this girl! It even led to provoking Phillipe!
Abella looked down arrogantly, casually speaking while watching his pathetic state, "So, because I refused to go with you today, you want to make things difficult for us? Make my fiancé suffer? And you mentioned making a phone call to prevent my fiancé from seeing tomorrow's sun?"
Upon hearing these words, Lucas felt his life was over. He knew that a few light apologies would not let Miss Medici spare them...
Now, the River Group was valued at three billion US dollars. If they lost it, they would lose everything, but more importantly, more than a hundred lives of their family... I heard that Q. Rowe Price had an extensive network of contacts and could easily suppress any news. Those who had offended her before had disappeared without a trace...
Looking at Phillipe, he would definitely not let his fiancée be wronged in front of his other woman!
With these thoughts in mind, Lucas closed his eyes, took a deep breath, as if he had made a decision!
"This foolish son has gone too far, he offended you, and today I will give Phillipe and Miss Medici an account!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he clenched the electric baton and approached his son.
"Dad, what are you going to do..." Tim had never seen his father with such a terrifying expression, as if he wanted to kill him!
He struggled to crawl away, to get further away from his father, but Lucas stepped closer, holding the electric baton and arrived in front of him, his voice chilling to the extreme, "Which leg kicked Miss Medici?"
"Dad, I am your own son..." Tim crawled away fearfully, trying to distance himself, seemingly guessing his father's intention, his voice filled with a begging tone, "If I lose a leg, I'll become disabled for the rest of my life! Dad, can you bear to see me sitting in a wheelchair for the next half of my life?"
"It's fortunate enough if you can sit in a wheelchair, what more do you want?"
If he could exchange one leg for more than a hundred lives of the entire family, that would be a cause for celebration!
"Since you won't say, then any leg will do!" Lucas raised his hand and struck down harshly on Tim's left knee with the electric baton.
"Ah!" Tim screamed in pain, hearing the sound of his own bones fracturing, the pain almost causing him to faint.
Phillipe reached out and covered Abella's mouth to prevent her from making noise, as he was afraid Tim might worry more.
One glance from Lucas, "Kid, don't look at these things."
Kid??
Her eyes didn't even blink when she fired in the Triangle District, yet she called herself a kid?
Lucas was about to take action when he heard Tim's miserable scream, "Dad, it hurts so bad, please stop, I know I was wrong... I beg you, dad..."
But Lucas was in pain too. He knew better than anyone about Phillipe's tactics. Even if Q. Rowe Price spared them today, Phillipe would never let them off the hook. An explanation had to be given!
Tears mixed in his eyes, regretting his own indulgence towards this child, which led him to commit an unforgivable mistake...
The price now is a leg... Regrets won't change anything!
After a while, he wiped the tears from the corner of his eyes and looked at the couple in front of him humbly and ingratiatingly.
"Phillipe, Miss Medici, he has paid the price, I don't know if you can forgive us."
"Let's go." Abella held Phillipe's hand and decided not to pursue it further.
Phillipe glanced at Lucas, and Lucas hastily said, "Phillipe, rest assured, from now on, he can only stay at home and will never have the chance to offend you again..."
Hearing this, Phillipe withdrew his gaze and left with Abella.
Abella knew that if it weren't for her and Phillipe's identities, the outcome would have been much worse for an ordinary couple.
