Quinn heard Lachlan's question and quickly replied, "Even if you gave me a hundred guts, I wouldn't dare hate you, Mr. Willis! Besides, that little bastard just tried to harm me. Even if you don't kill him, I'll make sure he gets what he deserves!"
"Good job killing him, Mr. Willis! Thank you for helping me clean up the mess!"
Everyone present sneered and mocked them.
The Hodge family father and son were truly despicable, showing the worst of human nature.
One son pushed all responsibility onto his father in order to save himself.
The father shouted "good job" even though someone had killed his son.
Lachlan sneered at Quinn but suddenly thought of Allison when it was time to act on his murderous intentions.
"I can spare your life but you have to transfer your shares in Hodge's Wine to Allison without compensation. Is that okay?"
"No problem! No problem! Miss Singleton was frightened today so I should compensate her for her mental distress!"
Quinn nodded eagerly without hesitation or regret. Instead, he was excited beyond measure because he knew that as long as Lachlan proposed a condition like this, then his life would be spared.
Compared with saving his own life, what did a share in a wine company matter?
Lachlan nodded approvingly, "Handle it as soon as possible."
"Yes! Yes! I'll do it tomorrow!" Quinn said gratefully.
Allison finally snapped out of her shock and heard Lachlan's proposal; she blushed with embarrassment.
"Lachlan... I don't want it."
Lachlan had already risked everything by coming here to save her so Allison felt grateful enough towards him already; how could she ask for more shares?
"Why not? It's not like I'm giving them away for free. They're compensation for your losses from him," Lachlan asked impatiently.
"Don't take something without reason or cause trouble unnecessarily," Allison replied firmly.
"If you don't want them, then shall we kill him instead? Or maybe send him straight into prison since he participated in the kidnapping too?"
Quinn almost wet himself again when hearing this threat from Lachlan and quickly knelt down before Allison begging, "Miss Singleton, please help me out here. Please accept these shares."
"I beg of you. Please accept them!!"
Allison looked at Quinn who was now groveling on the ground before her pleading pitifully, which made her feel uncomfortable. So, she finally agreed with an "oh" sound.
Allison wasn't stupid. She could see that Lachlan spared Quinn's life because she still worked at Hodge's Wine.
If the boss of the company died, Hodge's Wine would go bankrupt and her job would be in jeopardy!
If she didn't agree, Lachlan might even kill Quinn. Although the Hodge family deserved to die, Allison didn't want Lachlan to kill again.
After a moment...
Alexander had planned on apologizing to Lachlan with a gift tomorrow but since they met tonight and resolved things, he left with his men after everything was settled.
Meanwhile, Lachlan called Mason and asked him to send some cars for transportation while also asking him to help send Allison back home.
