Chapter 248
After talking in circles, they finally got to the point. He just hoped the Irving family would drop the charges and release Wade and
Yvonne.
“We don’t want compensation, just justice. Yvonne and Wade hired someone to commit murder, nearly killing my brother. We wor withdraw the lawsuit,*
“Yes, my kids made a mistake, but no one died, right?* Melinda interrupted, “Your father and brother are fine. So why take this to court? Tell us what compensation you want ‘
Melinda’s heart was heavy. She had just come from the police station, and in one night, Wade and Yvonne had been tortured beyond recognition. How could they endure more of this?
“Wade has to go to prison; that’s the price for his actions.”
“We should be talking to your father, not you,” Melinda snapped at Flora.
Her gaze darkened as she looked at Flora. Her kids were usually obedient. If it weren’t for the constant pressure from the Irving family. they wouldn’t have resorted to violence.

Do you really want them to spend the rest of their lives in prison?”
Flora’s fingers flew over her keyboard. She looked up and retorted, “And who do you think you are?*
Selene was taken aback, not expecting Flora’s bluntness. Her face fell.
“Raul, are you set on making enemies of the Brimer family?” Paul stared Raul down. They had tried everything, but the Irvings were adamant. It was time to get tough.
“If anything happens to my kids, you will pay. There will come a day when you’ll beg us for mercy. Let’s go!”
The Brimer family stormed out, and to anyone watching, it might have looked like the Irving family were the real villains.
