The Ceo’s Convict Wife by Jennifer Mike

Chapter 1030

Nonetheless, after purchasing all the items and loading them onto the small three-wheeled car, she discovered that one of its tires had been removed. An honest-looking young man approached Amelia and said, “Oh, no. Its tires are missing, so you won’t be able to ride it. There’s a repair shop nearby. How about we move it there and have it fixed for you?”

Amelia suddenly recalled a conversation she had with one of the shopkeepers when she had gone to restock her goods at the market carlier. The shopkeeper had mentioned that there had been a surge in incidents involving three-wheeled and electric scooter tires being punctured or removed outside the market, which had made the nearby car repair shop quite popular.

Many people who had visited the car repair shop had been subjected to extortion for money.

Most in the market speculated that the car repair shop was involved, but the surveillance camera positioned outside the market had experienced repeated malfunctions. After being repaired a few times, it broke down once more.

Amelia quickly replied, “It’s fine. I’ll figure out another solution.”

“What other solution? This repair shop is right here. It’s so convenient. We’re offering to help because we’re kind-hearted. Otherwise, it’ll take quite a while for a woman like you to haul this cart to the repair shop with all these items,” the man persisted in his attempts to persuade her.

“No need. I’ll figure it out myself,” Amelia said.

Upon hearing this, the two people abruptly shifted their expressions. Rather than feigning honesty and kindness, they turned fierce and declared, “Don’t force us to resort to the hard way. Your vehicle has to be repaired here!”

They were then prepared to forcibly move Amelia’s tricycle to the repair shop.

Amelia hastily exclaimed, “What do you think you’re doing? I’m calling the police!”

“Fine, go ahead and call the police. You let us help you move your vehicle to the repair shop, and now you’re changing your mind. Hand over 100 dollars, and we’ll be on our way. We can’t do this for free!” the men asserted.

They were practically talking nonsense. Amelia knew that she had met unreasonable jerks.

dollars was no small sum for her. She retrieved her phone and intended to call the police. Seeing this, the two men promptly lunged toward her, attempting to snatch the phone from her grasp. Amelia attempted to dodge them, but they suddenly seized her hair and forced her
