The Almighty Dragon General novel Chapter 215

Chapter 215

James stood and turned to look at Thea. “You’re the chairman. Order the finance department to pay the compensation.” 

“James, w-what…” Thea was at a loss. 

She thought James would resolve the problem. However, after his posturing and empty words, he was now advising the Callahans to pay up. 

An angry rebuke came from inside the building, “What are you doing, James? Ten million dollars? Are you kidding me? I won’t be surprised if you colluded with these people to swindle money out of the Callahans.” 

It was Gladys. 

James whispered in Thea’s ear, “There’s something wrong with the medicine.”

“H-How can you be sure this medicine was prescribed by us? What if someone’s trying to frame us?” Thea glanced at James. If they paid compensation before getting to the bottom of this incident, would it not be equivalent to acknowledging their mistake? James said, “Listen to me. Appeasing the family of the deceased is our top priority. As long as we pay compensation and calm them down, everything else will be a piece of cake. In any case, it’s detrimental to the Callahans if this continues. If we can prove that this incident is unrelated to Eternality, it’ll bolster our image. The advertising we’d gain from this would greatly outweigh spending ten million on advertisements. If it’s truly our fault, then forking the money out now would keep our losses to the minimum.” Thea mused over his words and believed they made sense. 

She stood up and nodded. “Fine, ten million dollars it is.” 

The muscular man and his family did not expect the Callahans to be such a pushover. 

In past cases of medical negligence, the hospitals would try to shift the blame away from them. Even if the victims were compensated, they had to go through court cases for years. 

At that moment, they felt ten million dollars were too little. 

They gathered and had a discussion. “Hey, do you think we’re asking for too little?” “Yeah, dad. I heard the Callahans have deepened cooperation with multiple large corporations and are now swiftly expanding their business.” 

“We should ask for more.” 

Soon, they finished their discussion. 

The muscular man stepped forward once more. He threatened menacingly, “Ten million dollars is too little. I won’t settle for anything less than fifty million dollars.” “Sob… my poor father. You’ve died a horrible death.” “Oh, my poor grandpa…” 

They cried their eyes out in front of Eternality Hospital.
