The Almighty Lord Caspian by Cath Nitfisch

Chapter 267 Five Million Worth of Compensation

Just when he was about to breathe a sigh of relief, Vermont became nervous again in an

instant.

“Mr. Lynch… B- But what?” Vermont stammered as he looked at Caspian.

“There’s no need to be so nervous, Mr. Zann Senior. My wife was spooked by your family. Shouldn’t there be some compensation for her emotional distress?” Caspian asked pleasantly.

Realization struck Vermont. Was Caspian trying to extort money?

“O–Of course! I’ll compensate Ms. Stewart with 20 thousand dollars. Would that be acceptable to you?” Vermont replied with a smile.

“20 thousand dollars? Do I look like a beggar to you?” Caspian asked coldly. His expression had changed in an instant.

Vermont was dumbfounded. Was 20 thousand dollars considered too little?

“What about 100 thousand dollars?” Vermont gritted out.

Crossing his arms, Caspian stared at Vermont without speaking.

Vermont felt uneasy seeing Caspian’s demeanor.

“500 thousand dollars! Mr. Lynch, surely this much would be enough to compensate Ms. Stewart?” Vermont finally made up his mind.

Willow was a little startled as she sat in her seat. Truth be told, she wasn’t frightened at all.

After all, she was already used to such scenes.

However, Vermont’s willingness to offer 500 thousand dollars was surprisingly generous.

“Could you suggest a figure, Mr. Lynch? I really have no idea,” Vermont said, resigned.

He was about to lose his mind if Caspian was still unsatisfied.

He had already compensated 500 thousand dollars just because Kyle had barged in on Caspian’s dinner. It was already an astronomical sum.

However, Caspian still seemed dissatisfied. How much would it take to please him?

“Honey, how much do you think would be suitable for the compensation?” Caspian asked as

he looked at Willow.

“I…” Willow opened her mouth.

“You said five million dollars? Alright!” Caspian interrupted Willow before she could say
