Chapter 13 We Owe You an Explanation Allen froze for a moment and suddenly understood what had happened. How dare that woman use Abner’s reputation and claim to be his wife? This woman had some nerve! Since Abner had already denied it, Allen decided he wouldn’t let that woman go the next time he encountered her. After leaving the golf course and getting into her car, Damara still couldn’t shake off the disgust over Allen’s scheming. Now she had to think of another way Surrounded by luxury cars, her modest vehicle seemed out of place. She stepped on the gas pedal and carefully reversed to exit the parking space. Suddenly, a car from behind was speeding too fast and crashed into the back of her car. The impact made her car tilt forward, and her head nearly hit the windshield. Her car was pushed forward about three meters and collided with the Bentley parked perfectly in its spot. Damara opened the car door and stepped out. She found a middle-aged woman behind the wheel, wearing very elaborate makeup. Seeing that Damara’s car was only worth a few hundred thousand dollars, the Chapter 13 We Owe You an Explanation Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Damara noticed the woman’s emotions and glanced at the Bentley before her. The license plate had the same series of numbers; she wondered if the woman had seen it.
“Alright, alright. My insurance company will call you to arrange the repairs. Don’t waste my time.” The woman impatiently waved her hand and couldn’t be bothered to look at Damara’s expression. Damara frowned and tried to soften her tone. “Ma’am, the car in front…” Before she could finish her sentence, the woman interrupted, “I told you I am in a hurry. Do you know where we are? I don’t have time to waste here. I’ll compensate for the car in front as well. Now, hurry up and leave. Give me this parking spot!” The taillights of the car in front were severely damaged, likely worth hundreds of thousands. Since someone was willing to take full responsibility, Damara didn’t see the need to compete. As Damara drove away, the woman realized the crashed car was an expensive Bentley! Her face immediately stiffened, and she looked around, parking her car in Damara’s vacant spot. Then she went straight into the golf course without bothering to greet the owner of the damaged Bentley.

However, he found the car’s taillights shattered and even the license plate bent inward. Barry’s face darkened, and he quickly called a nearby security guard. “Who did this? Go check the surveillance footage.” The security guard was startled. He couldn’t afford to offend anyone with such an incident involving two crucial guests. He hurriedly went to retrieve the footage. After Barry finished speaking, he quickly turned to Abner. “Mr. Robinson, should I arrange for someone to take you back?” “Hand the surveillance footage over to the police for investigation.” Abner’s tone was calm, but his implied authority made the responsible person even more nervous. This was a clear indication that he wanted the culprit brought to justice. Barry nodded. “Mr. Robinson, don’t worry. We owe you an explanation, and we’ll take care of it.” Abner didn’t say anything, but he got into the damaged car.
Knowing that Abner never rode in someone else’s car, Matt gripped the steering wheel with both hands and drove away. “The hotel is not far from here. I’ll take you back first and let the insurance company handle everything.” “Alright.” Abner had been abroad for three years, and despite owning multiple Chapter 13 We Owe You an Explanation 40 IVouchers properties, they were no different from hotels for him. As the A&U Villa hadn’t been decorated yet, he temporarily stayed at the InterContinental Hotel under the Robinson Group. As the car left the golf course and stopped at a red light, Matt turned to look at Abner and suddenly remembered Payne’s instructions. “Payne gave me a few design sketches and a contact number at noon. He said it was a recommendation for an interior designer. Would you like to take a look?” Since Abner’s return to the country, countless design companies had been trying to impress him, but he hadn’t been interested in any of them. With Payne’s taste, what kind of style could this recommendation be? Abner felt a bit repulsed and rubbed his temples with his hand. “Where are the design sketches?” “In the folder on your left.” Abner nodded but didn’t immediately open the folder. He leaned back against the rear seat and dozed off. Meanwhile, back at Damara’s apartment, she had just finished her shower when the doorbell rang. It was already 8 o’clock in the evening, and she wondered who would be visiting at this hour. She draped a piece of clothing over herself and opened the door, only to find two police officers displaying their badges. “Hello, Ms. Moore. You are involved in a hit-and-run case. Please come with us.”
