Chapter 424 How about you go hit him?
When everyone saw the cash in the suitcase, they were all floored, their faces showing pure shock.
This was a whopping twenty million dollars!
Most of the folks there had probably never seen that much money in their entire lives.
At that moment, most of the employees in the sales office recognized James. After all, the day he said he wanted to buy all the houses, it caused quite a buzz.
But then, James suddenly decided not to buy, and with Evelyn claiming he was a fraud pretending to be a rich kid, everyone thought James was a scammer.
But when James slapped twenty million dollars in cash in front of everyone, they realized he wasn't a fraud at all, but a super-rich kid.
Someone who could make Terry so obedient and casually pull out twenty million bucks had to be a big deal!
Pamela's jaw dropped, thinking this was all just unreal.
After hesitating for a bit, she stammered and asked James, "James, is all this money yours?"
James nodded casually.
"Didn't you say your bank account was frozen?" Pamela kept questioning James.
"It's unfrozen now!" James smiled faintly, then turned to Terry and asked, "How's that thing I asked you to do?"
"Mr. Smith, don't worry, I've taken care of it. They should be here soon!" Terry quickly replied.
"Alright, then let's wait a bit longer!" James nodded, then walked towards Casey.
Casey was already terrified by James's presence. Seeing Terry show up was shocking enough.
But now, with James pulling out twenty million dollars, Casey was at a loss.
When Casey saw James walking towards him, fear flashed in his eyes, and his legs gave out, causing him to drop to his knees in front of James with a thud.
Seeing Casey kneel, James couldn't help but smile, then softly asked, "Weren't you all high and mighty just now? Didn't you say you were gonna break my legs? Why so scared now?"
"Mr. Smith, I... I know I was wrong, I was stupid, I... I shouldn't have talked to you like that, please forgive me!" Casey stammered, kneeling and pleading.
"You didn't do anything wrong, why are you apologizing?" James reached out and helped Casey up.
Casey looked at James with pure fear because he had no idea what James was planning. At that moment, James seemed like a devil to him.
"What's your relationship with him?" James pointed to Cecil, who was sitting on the ground looking pale, and asked Casey expressionlessly.
"My relationship with him?" Casey was stunned for a moment, then stammered, "He... he's my big brother..."
"Big brother?" James sneered, then said lightly, "Do you remember what I just told you?"
"What did you say?"
Casey shook his head lightly, confusion flashing in his eyes.
"If you forgot, let me remind you. Do you see the money on the ground?" James pointed to the suitcase Terry had placed down.
"I... I see it..." Casey nodded, trembling.
"I want you to hit this guy. For every slap you give him, I'll give you ten thousand dollars. Keep going until you can't anymore. What do you think?" James smiled at Casey.
Hearing James's words, Casey took a deep breath, his face showing shock. He didn't expect James to let him hit Cecil instead of retaliating against him.
And when Cecil heard James's words, fear flashed in his eyes. He was worried Casey might actually do it.
If Casey really hit Cecil now, Cecil wouldn't be able to stay in Lumina City anymore!
A gang leader getting slapped by his subordinate? If that got out, how could he show his face in Lumina City?
Casey looked at James, hesitating. He didn't know if he should listen to him.
Although Cecil usually treated Casey well, the money James offered was too tempting!
"What do you think?" James asked Casey softly.
Casey bit his lip, staying silent.
"If you don't want to, I'll find someone else. I'm sure plenty of people would jump at this deal!" Seeing Casey's hesitation, James continued.
"Okay!" Casey took a deep breath and walked towards Cecil without hesitation.
Seeing Casey approach, fear flashed on Cecil's face, and he stammered, "Casey, what are you doing? I'm warning you, if you touch me today, you won't be able to stay in Lumina City anymore!"
"Cecil, I'm sorry!" Casey replied in a low voice, then slapped Cecil hard across the face without hesitation.
Cecil was stunned, covering his face and looking at Casey in fear.
Cecil never imagined he'd be hit by his own subordinate!
"Casey, are you crazy? You dare hit my uncle?" Marc shouted at Casey, his eyes wide with anger.
Casey turned to Marc without speaking. He thought if he slapped Cecil hundreds of times today, he could get millions from James.
That money would be enough for him to leave Lumina City and live comfortably. He wouldn't need to stay as Cecil's subordinate anymore.
Thinking of this, Casey raised his hand to slap Cecil again.
But at that moment, James suddenly reached out and grabbed Casey's wrist.
Seeing James stop him, Casey looked confused and asked, "Mr. Smith, do you think I'm not hitting hard enough?"
"No, you did well." James smiled faintly, then continued, "But I just thought, just hitting Cecil isn't very interesting. After all, I don't have a deep grudge against him. Why don't you hit him instead?"
As James spoke, he pointed to Marc standing to the side!
