Chapter 482
“Who are you? Buzz off! You're blocking my way!” Lothar saw Donny walking up to him while reaching his hand out for a handshake. Seeing the way Donny was dressed, Lothar shoved the former aside and hurried toward Harold.
Needless to say, Donny was incredibly humiliated.
Before Lothar could reach Harold, however, the members of the biker gang stepped forward and got in his way.
“What's with your attitude, old man? Mr. Hancock offered to shake hands with you because he respects you. How dare you shove Mr. Hancock aside? Do you have a death wish?”
The members of the biker gang were used to having their way on the streets. Ordinary people would usually shy away from them for fear of offending them, giving them a misconception that everyone in Xenhall was scared of them.
When those blockheads saw Lothar shoving their boss aside, they immediately went up to Lothar while brandishing their machetes, staring at Lothar haughtily.
Lothar frowned and shot Donny a look when those foolish young men got in his way.
Donny almost peed his pants when he realized what the gangsters were doing.
Before they could utter another word, Donny rushed toward them and kicked the gangster that threatened Lothar, sending him flying.
“Are you guys f*cking blind? How dare you disrespect Mr. Hightower, the richest man in Xenhall? Are you guys trying to get me killed so that you guys can take my money?” Still fuming, Donny went on to kick a few other gangsters.

The gangsters were baffled by Donny's actions. We were merely protecting Mr. Hancock's dignity! Why would he say we were trying to get him killed? Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
“I'm sorry, Mr. Hightower. My name is Donny Hancock. My family runs a logistics company in the southern region. These guys are foolish, so please forgive their ignorance!” Donny apologized to Lothar after reprimanding his men.
“Hmph!” Lothar let out a cold snort in response. Since no one was blocking his way anymore, he quickly walked up to Harold and asked, “Are you all right, Mr. Campbell?”
Lothar initially wanted to address Harold by his first name, but he changed his mind after giving it some thought. I think it's more appropriate for me to address him as Mr. Campbell.
Harold glanced at the scooter and uttered helplessly, “I'm fine, but the scooter I borrowed isn't! I'm going to have a hard time explaining this to Luna!”
Lothar furrowed his brows upon hearing that. It's so hard to imagine Mr. Campbell riding a scooter. Shouldn't he be going around in a Rolls-Royce or a Maybach? Besides, he should have a bunch of
bodyguards escorting him! However, the Oracle told me Mr. Campbell is currently in some kind of trouble.
At that thought, Lothar's concerns from earlier on faded.
“Donny, right? What happened here?” Lothar asked Donny after turning toward him. He didn't dare to ask Harold that question because it would seem disrespectful.
With a grave expression, Donny stammered in response, “Uh... I accidentally knocked over M-Mr. Campbell's scooter. M-May I know how much should I pay for the damages?”
Hearing that, Harold replied in a serious tone, “Luna loves this scooter, and she has had it for years now. She's emotionally attached to it, and I don't think she'd be satisfied even if you bought her a new one!”
“Uh... What do you think I can do to fix this, Mr. Campbell?” Donny no longer dared to look down on Harold. I called the man before me a poor b*stard when Mr. Hightower, the wealthiest man in Xenhall, holds him in high regard!
Donny was sweating bullets when he realized his mistakes.
