“Enough.”

Without waiting for Cole Stone to speak, Tom White, who had taken out the eight thousand dollars, interrupted, “Why do you need so much money?”

The next moment…

Tom White threw the cash on the floor.

“Go take it.”

James Lewis’ eyes were filled with ridicule.

You want my money?

Go pick it up!

“You fucking—”

Cole Stone gritted his teeth.

“You’re still scolding me?”

James Lewis looked at Cole Stone’s fierce gaze and pretended to be frightened. “Let’s go!”

Tom White spoke up for James Lewis. “Even after having received so much money, he’s still being like this. There’s no future for him in this society.”

“That’s right!” Jane Smith coldly shouted. “How shameless!”

The surrounding crowd frowned.

“That’s 8 thousand dollars! And for a mere leg injury at that? How does he manage to still talk back like that? Can he even feel shame?”

“I can’t bear to watch this anymore.”

“Yeah, let’s go.”

The crowd found it hard to watch.

They felt that Cole Stone was simply too shameless.

Upon hearing their words, the anger and humiliation in Cole Stone’s eyes reached their peak…

But he was powerless to do anything about it.

The crowd soon dispersed.

A stack of glowing red bills scattered on the floor.

James Lewis looked smugly at Cole Stone.

He towered over him and said, “Cole Stone! I’ve told you a long time ago that you aren’t qualified to duke it out with me.”

“What can you do if I hit you with thousands of dollars? Nothing!”

“Let me tell you this, money can solve every problem out there. I’m willing to spend thousands of dollars—”

James Lewis and the other three revealed smug looks on their faces.

A loss of eight thousand dollars?

We ran over Cole Stone and paid him eight thousand dollars, how could that be a loss?

It was all for fun!

Quinn Young pulled on Jane Smith’s arm and said proudly, “I already said that Mr Lewis is the best for you.”

“Yeah.”

Jane Smith completely ignored Cole Stone.

“That’s enough! Let’s call it a day, shall we?”

Tom White burst into laughter.

Cole Stone stood up and ignored them.

There was no point in saying anything.

He limped as he propped up his electric bicycle.

“Hey, you don’t want the money?”

Seeing that Cole Stone did not even take away the money that he had thrown on his face, James Lewis laughed and teased. “This money will help pay for your medical bills, and it can even pay your mortgage!”

But Cole Stone did not say anything.

He just pushed his electric bicycle away.

He couldn’t take James Lewis’ money!

Seeing this, the four of them sneered and walked back into the Ferrari.

Tom White even picked the money off the ground.

After that, James Lewis whistled and the engine revved before the Ferrari sped away.

Looking at the back of the Ferrari, Cole Stone let out a bitter laugh.

He slowly got on the electric bicycle and drove toward the hospital.

When he stopped at a red light, a message popped up on his phone.

Because of the delay, the customer reported him.

At the red light, Cole Stone clenched his fists so tightly that they turned white, but then he loosened them again…

What else could he do?

He could not do anything!

The sunlight was blinding to the eyes, and the signal lights flickered.

Everything looked dazzling.

Then, the countdown ended.

The red light turned green.

Life had to continue!

With the roar of the engines around him, Cole Stone silently drove across the zebra crossing.

…

Sky City’s Top Hospital.

It was in the afternoon.

In front of the emergency department, medical staff and patients were walking around.

There was clamor all around.

Only Cole Stone remained silent in his chair, waiting for his triage.

He was worried because he only had about 150 dollars left in his bank account.

He was worried that he would have to spend more money if he suffered more injuries than he thought.

“Number 56, Cole Stone.”

A call resounded.

Cole Stone stood up and limped inside.

At that moment, an angry shout came from the side.

“Cole Stone! Stop right there! Hurry up and return my money!”

“How long are you going to drag it out?”

Cole Stone paused and turned around.

A man who looked as sturdy as an iron tower stood a short distance away.

He was angrily pointing at Cole Stone, a menacing look was on his face.

“Gene! Didn’t we agree that I’ll pay you on the tenth of the following month?”

Cole Stone was stunned.

What was he doing here?

Could it be that he knew that he was in the hospital?

The man’s name was Eugene Neal.

He was Cole Stone’s senior from university.

They had a pretty good relationship with each other.

Cole Stone even helped Eugene Neal, a foreigner at Sky City, to connect with the local university students and establish formal business relations.

As such, when he needed money, he first thought of borrowing from Eugene Neal.

But Cole Stone never expected that Eugene Neal would be at the hospital to ambush him and ask for money.

“Tenth?”

Eugene Neal had a well-developed body.

His face was gloomy as he raised the IOU in his hand and said, “Think about why I agreed for you to pay me back on the tenth! I only lent it to you because you said you would pay me back on the tenth after your salary. But I didn’t expect you to lie to me!”

“You didn’t even tell me that you’ve been fired, yet you still borrowed money from me? You weren’t planning on paying me back in the first place, am I right?”

“If your girlfriend didn’t tell me that you were kicked out of your job, you would’ve brought my money with you to the grave without ever paying me back!”

When the surrounding patients heard Eugene Neal’s words, they all looked at Cole Stone.

Their burning gazes made Cole Stone wince.

He had never thought of going back on his word.

Cole Stone’s face burned with anger after being slandered in public.

More than that, he was furious.

At Jane Smith!

He could tell!

Jane Smith must be the one behind this!

It was all so that he would not be able to pay the hospital for his treatment.

Cole Stone took a deep breath and decided to explain first.

“Listen to me, Gene. I lost my job yesterday. But I never planned on going back on my wo—”

Eugene Neal cut him off.

“Cut the crap! Give me my money back! What you’re saying doesn’t matter anymore, the problem is you lied to me!”

“I only lent you money because we used to be seniors and juniors. I didn’t expect you to lie over 1500 dollars.”

“Cole Stone, you’ve let me down!”

Eugene Neal’s voice was thunderous, attracting everyone’s attention.

The people around were surprised.

Some people even started to shake their heads.

Cole Stone was a rather handsome lad…

—But who would have expected that a young man with such delicate features had such a bad character?

Cole Stone looked a little bit lost. He was unable to explain himself.

Eugene Neal was looking at him like money was the only thing that mattered to him.

He would only make things worse if he tried to explain.

“Gene, how about this? I’ll return the money to you after I’m done treating my injuries, okay?”

Cole Stone pleaded.

He could only try to diffuse the situation so that there wouldn’t be a ruckus in the hospital.

As for money, he could only think about it afterwards.

At this moment, the doctors in the department and the people in the queue behind them started to get impatient.

“No!”

Eugene Neal shouted once again. “You must be planning on running away! Do you think that I’m stupid?”

Cole Stone’s heart turned cold.

He never would have imagined that their friendship only amounted to this!
