Chapter 1242: Chapter 1236: Extra Story – Righting Wrongs 13_1 Chapter 1242 -1236: Extra Story – Righting Wrongs 13_1 Upon hearing Finn Lewis’s words, Terence Daniel was quite amused and for a moment didn’t know how to respond.
Is it really okay for you to speak of your own blackmail so openly?
Even if you are holding a grudge, you could at least try to sugarcoat it in your language, so that others might be able to defend you.
But now that you’re stating it so directly, how could I possibly cover it up for you, even if I wanted to?
“Mr.
Daniel, you heard him, didn’t you?
He’s admitted it himself!
...
This is indeed extortion.
I concede that my son was at fault, but even so, he shouldn’t go to such lengths,” Moore Tims said, barely able to contain his glee, as he quickly and respectfully addressed Terence Daniel the moment Finn Lewis admitted it.
When Moore Tims first saw that Terence Daniel knew Finn Lewis and that Terence Daniel seemed to be in a difficult position, he thought that if Terence Daniel sided with Finn Lewis, Moore Tims would really have to back down, at least for now, unless he wanted to openly confront Terence Daniel himself.
But Terence Daniel, as the governor, was not someone who Moore Tims could challenge, and if it turned into a forced confrontation, Moore Tims would be the one to suffer in the end.
But Finn Lewis had been so straightforward and explicit, which relieved Moore Tims from his fears.
After all, it was Finn Lewis himself who had admitted it, and extortion certainly violates the laws of the Great Western Dynasty, doesn’t it?
Regardless of whether Terence Daniel knew him or not, under such clear-cut circumstances, Terence Daniel couldn’t treat the matter too harshly, and even if Terence Daniel did, Moore Tims was ready to make a fuss about it without fear.
Now he had evidence against Finn Lewis, and so many people had heard it.
“Young Master Lewis, I think this whole situation has been a big misunderstanding.
I admit that Mr.
Tims may have failed to properly discipline his son, but Young Master, you’ve already taught him a lesson.
Would you consider letting your men release Mr.
Tims’s son and, with me acting as mediator, we call an end to this affair?
Young Master Lewis, what do you say?” Terence Daniel promptly bowed his head and said.
Moore Tims looked uncertainly at Finn Lewis.
Just a moment ago, he had started to pressure Terence Daniel, but still, Terence Daniel was willing to personally guarantee a resolution of their conflict, suggesting that Finn Lewis’s influence was surely not something Terence Daniel wanted to provoke.
If even Terence Daniel did not want to provoke him, how many in the entire Great Western Dynasty would dare?
Moore Tims shuddered at the thought and considered whether Young Master Lewis might be someone like a prince.
Though hesitant at first, now that Terence Daniel had spoken favorably, Moore Tims decided to give Terence Daniel face and remained silent, ready to let the matter pass as long as Finn Lewis agreed.
“Mr.
Daniel,” Finn Lewis said lightly, looking at Terence Daniel, “in my life, I believe in many things, but never in evil.
I’ve always believed that there’s no place in this world where justice can’t be found, and if it weren’t for me today, I believe every person present understands what their fate would be.”
“Moreover, once I speak, I never take my words back.
If I say that there are two million silver in my pouch, then there must be two million silver in it.
If I’m able to walk away with that silver, then we can consider this matter resolved,” Finn Lewis casually shrugged his shoulders.
“Young Master, as the saying goes, retreating a step opens up a vast sky.
Today’s incident was my son’s fault, and I’m willing to apologize on his behalf.
But I hope you, Young Master, can show some leniency.

After all, we have a long future ahead, and I believe you may still have business in Liberty City in the future, right?
We, the Tims Family, admit our fault in this matter and are willing to compensate you with one hundred thousand silver,” Moore Tims said, measuring his words before bowing to Finn Lewis and speaking with a dark expression.
