“What’s going on? Did we hit her?” The cat lady was puzzled.

Although she saw the whole process, Shadow did not understand the thought process of modern people so the fact that Patty looked annoyed didn’t click with her.

Not missing this, Boink took the initiative to explain by quietly sneaking up to the lady’s ear and whispering the ins and outs of this scam. He’s sincerely pleased with himself after the catling gradually falls into a trance due to the shocker.

Seeing the group not reacting to her cries, the middle-aged scammer knew she had to punch the gas and screamed harder. This was the time of day when everyone liked to come out and relax after dinner so it didn’t take long for many pedestrians to gather.

As for whether it’s true a car hitting a person or not, the onlookers didn’t care. They are only gathering out of habit to take part in the fun.

Dawn knew this thinking of course and glanced back at the Maserati sports car. In the past, the news reports always did say the scammers liked to pick expensive vehicles for their targets, apparently that’s quite true. A few hundred bucks to get such people to move was nothing to an owner of a million-dollar car. It’s such a simple con and without too much risk for jailing. Who wouldn’t want to do it if they’re in this field of a job? Of course, there are also those fake rich tycoons that like to rent expensive cars for a stroll. If that happens, the matter might get a little feisty and involve the cops. However, even if the authorities do come, what could they do? It’s a he says she says situation in the end. Nothing bad would come of it.

Sure enough, the female scammer didn’t let up despite the matter dragging out. Though the woman did feel a little annoyed inside, wondering if she hit a dud with this hit, but it won’t be enough to snuff the greed inside.

Patty’s naturally not one to lack money, but it’s the principle of the matter. If she falls victim to such a simple scam, what would happen to her reputation and standing? She’s an ancient vampire, a lady of noble status. Simply said, it hurts her pride by getting conned. But what could she do? There’s no camera set up on the car and no other witness to prove their innocence. Against a serial scammer that’s the embodiment of the film queen, the situation wasn’t looking good.

“Shameless!” Shadow was extremely angry and snapped out. She had lived for many years too and had seen some bad people in her times, but such a shameless individual was far and in-between.

“The driver wants to hit me! They don’t want to compensate and is getting physical!”

“Holy shit!” Boink couldn’t resist and exclaimed at the shamelessness as well. Fortunately, there’s a good flow of people gathered already so his tiny voice didn’t make any waves.

Truthfully, if things continued to develop in this manner then it could only mean bad things for the party. Others in the group may not have realized this, but Patty did since she’s an old driver. If police comes then they would demand ID from everyone, and from what she heard thus far, the cat lady in their party didn’t have anything of that sort!

“Quit howling. Tell me how you want to solve this then.” Patty snaps due to the irritation brewing from within.

“If you want to settle this then send me to the hospital and contact my family. You’re responsible for all my medical expenses!” The middle-aged scammer grabbed her supposed injured leg and started rolling around like she’s in a lot of pain, “But if you want to settle this privately, then pay me five thousand…. No wait, eight thousand and I’ll head to the hospital on my own!”
