Chapter 540
Stella looked into the rearview mirror and saw a gray-colored car. However, she could not clearly see the exact model of the car.
She frowned. ’Is this person a novice driver? How'd they ram into our car?' 'I guess we'll be having our meal a little later."
Marshall chuckled warmly.
Stella said, 'Let's handle the incident first."
'Give me a moment," Marshall said in a low voice. Then, he switched on the hazard lights, unbuckled his seatbelt, and prepared
to get out of the car.
"I'll go with you," Stella said as she unbuckled her seatbelt.
'Marshall has a really gentle disposition. What if the other driver is unreasonable, and Mr. Moore can't outtalk them? I need to tag
along and see. If Marshall cant outtalk the person, I'll talk instead. After all, I'm pretty brazen, and I've never lost when it comes to
arguing,' she thought.
Marshall laughed and said, "Alright."
And so, Keegan saw Stella and Marshall get out of the car. Stella even purposefully went around the car and walked to
Marshall's side.
She was wearing a white-colored hoodie and had her hair casually draped over her shoulder. She had a cool expression on her
face as her hands were angled and tucked in the pockets of her hoodie. Her red lips were pursed, and she gave off an
intimidating feeling that prevented others from getting close to her. She looked like she was not to be messed around with.
She walked ahead of Marshall, her stance shielding him behind her.
Seeing her actions, Keegan could not help but darken his gaze.
In the first year of their marriage, they went to Keegan's grandmother's birthday together. He was driving then.
When the traffic light turned green, a scooter sped out from a blind spot as soon as their car moved. Keegan reacted quickly and
immediately slammed the brakes, but their car still rammed into the scooter.
The person on the scooter was a middle-aged woman in her 50s. She even had a child that was five or six years old on board.
After they got hit, the two fell off the scooter.
Keegan told Stella to call the Collision Reporting Center and the insurance company while he got off the car to check on the
situation.
While Stella was on the phone, the middle-aged woman got up from the ground. Then, she swung her helmet and smashed
Keegan's car.
Since Keegan was a man, it was obviously inappropriate for him to put his hands on an older woman with a child. However, the
woman upped the ante and started cursing while smashing the car. She even wanted to kick Keegan.
Back then, Stella was enamored of him and newly wedded to him, so she could not stand seeing her man get beaten up. She
immediately whipped out a golf club from the backseat and smashed the scooter without warning.
Her movements were swift and relentless. The golf club was made of alloy material and incredibly sturdy, so it only took a few
hits before the scooter's windshield got smashed to pieces. When the child beside them saw this, they were so frightened they
started crying.
When the old woman realized Stella was a tough nut, she could no longer play the bully and quickly went to protect her
grandchild and the battered scooter.
The traffic police and insurers came. They took some photos and collected evidence.
The car's initial damage was not too bad after it got hit by the scooter that ran a red light.
Since they also had car insurance, the scooter driver probably only had to compensate 10 or 20 thousand dollars as a lesson,
and the matter would have been considered closed.
However, the old woman was being a bully. She ran a red light and blamed them for not watching their way while driving. She
smashed their car and hit them, so her actions were considered intentional damage to another's property. The repair costs alone
were at least several hundred thousand dollars. When the old woman heard the compensation amount, she immediately twisted
the truth and she accused Stella of smashing her scooter first.
The result was predictable. The dash camera had clearly recorded the person who started it first.
Stella smashed the scooter and only had to pay her two to three thousand dollars for compensation. The middle-aged woman
had it bad and had to pay a couple hundred thousand dollars.
Stella was really fierce when she smashed. After they handled the incident, she got in the car and took off her sunglasses. Her
voice immediately softened as she said quietly, "Honey, don't be mistaken. I'm not usually like that. Everyone says I'm gracious,
intelligent, ladylike, and virtuous."
Keegan was speechless.
'I almost would've believed her nonsense if I hadn't seen how ruthless she was when smashing the scooter. Stella had never
been a tame little bunny. She just liked pretending to be one,' he thought.
