“Honey, Brandon got distracted while driving and didn’t see someone on the road. He just hit them! We could have just taken them to the hospital and paid compensation, but Brandon was drinking today. If the police find out, this is going to be a huge problem…”I immediately guessed what Stella wanted me to do, and my face instantly turned cold. “So, why did you call me here?”Stella looked at me pleadingly. “I want you to help him! When the police arrive later, you can say you were the one who hit them. Otherwise, Brandon, with drunk driving and hitting someone, will go to jail!
He’s still so young, and he’s getting married soon, and he’s about to get a promotion at work. If he goes to jail, everything will be ruined! Please, for my sake as his best friend, help him out, okay?”Brandon also chimed in, “Man, please, help me out! I’ll be forever grateful for your kindness, I’ll repay you in my next life…”My face darkened to an extreme. My eyes fixed on Stella. “You’re afraid of him going to jail, but you’re not afraid of me going to jail?”Stella quickly said, “No, it won’t happen! I asked a friend, and you haven’t been drinking.
Even if you hit someone fatally, you just have to pay compensation, it’s fine…””You mean I’ll have to pay for him too?” I clenched my fists.Stella bit her lip. “Brandon’s getting married soon and needs money. We can just front it for him. He’ll pay us back when he has money later.
Anyway, you make a lot, so it’s not a big deal for you.”I nearly slapped Stella right then and there.This woman, for her best guy friend, was utterly shameless!But this was good. If you’re so heartless, then don’t blame me for being ruthless!I looked at Brandon, a cold smirk flashing in my eyes.A brilliant plan for revenge formed in my mind.
