Messing With Her? Are You Crazy! novel Chapter 1108

The officer scoffed, lifting his chin slightly. "At the back of the file, you'll find the complete teardown and analysis report of your equipment."

"The machines you brought had pristine outer shells, but the core components were severely defective. The underlying architecture was highly incompatible. Pushing it to maximum capacity guaranteed an inevitable overload."

"Furthermore, foreign spyware was found embedded deep within the primary processors."

"Security let it through because you were granted special approval as a tournament sponsor. You signed a liability waiver, so we didn't perform a full-scale teardown inspection at the docks."

Adrian's ears rang loudly.

With trembling hands, he flipped to the final pages, his eyes scanning the detailed teardown analysis.

The more he read, the paler he became.

The more he read, the harder his hands shook.

"Adrian, I am not negotiating with you. I am informing you."

"If you don't sign the restitution acknowledgment right now, we will place you under armed detention and contact the head of the Cole family to come collect you."

The officer's tone turned icy. "You should know that the consequences of bringing that equipment could easily land you an espionage charge. Asking for a mere four hundred million is already doing the Cole family a massive favor."

Adrian collapsed onto the ground, cold sweat dripping down his forehead.

His entire body convulsed with tremors.

Pure panic consumed him.

Four hundred million...

That was hundreds of millions of dollars!

The last time he got scammed out of a fortune was racing against Serena at the Apex Horizon Speedway.

Because that scandal involved several elite heirs from Vaelion City, his family had been forced to grit their teeth and clean up his mess to quell the public outrage.

His grandfather had furiously exiled him abroad to lay low and learn his lesson.

He had only just returned to the country, barely managing to cool his grandfather's temper.

He had even sworn an oath to his grandfather, promising that attending this tournament as a Guest Inspector would drive the family's stock prices through the roof.

But now...

He had ruined everything again.
