Initially, James was standing at the door, but upon hearing what Jonah had said, he immediately steppedforward. “What do you mean by us forking out the money? Why are you so shameless? It was your sonwho damaged our car, so how can you demand that we pay for the compensation? No way!” he growled.

Jonah shot a glare. “Despite knowing that he didn’t have a driver’s license, you lent the car to my son. soyou should be held responsible instead. Am I right, Mr. Manning?”

An embarrassed Craig scratched his head before he gazed helplessly at Matthew, who uttered, “Mr.Manning, if you have anything to say, just immediately tell us.”

After giving it a thought, Craig continued in a hushed voice, “If you still lent him the car despite knowingthat he didn’t have a license, you’re partly responsible and should pay a part of the compensation inaccordance with the law.”

In an instant, Jonah smugly smiled. “Did you hear that? Mr. Manning agrees with me, so what else canyou say? James, I’m telling you that if it weren’t because my son’s fine, I would’ve made youcompensate for his injury as well!”

James was exasperated and flustered. “What does it have to do with us that he was driving without alicense? Why should we fully pay for the compensation? Aren’t they responsible for this?”

Craig answered, “Of course they’re responsible. I’m just saying that you’re partly responsible.”

“Did you hear that?” James immediately uttered. “We’re only partly responsible. Jonah, you wanna extortmoney from us? Dream on!”

A stunned Jonah growled, “What do you mean that they’re only partly responsible? They lent the car tomy son even though they knew that he didn’t have a driver’s license. They should be fully responsible!How did you even become an attorney? Are you really a professional lawyer?”

Craig frowned. “I am just telling it as it is in accordance with the law.”

Jonah yelled, “In accordance with the law? I think you’re just a half-baked lawyer! Without the need tothink about it, I can tell that they should be fully responsible!”

As he was displeased with Jonah, Craig’s expression turned cold. Then, he turned to look at James andasked, “By the way, Mr. Cunningham, are you sure you really lent the car to his son at that time?”

Jame scratched his head. “Huh? What do you mean?”

Craig replied, “I need to know what exactly happened at that time so that I can make a judgment.”

“I didn’t agree to it when his son wanted to borrow the car from us because I knew that he didn’t have adriver’s license,” James responded. “However, he told us that it was his girlfriend who would drive sinceshe has a driver’s license. At that time, I thought that since she would be the one driving, there shouldn’tbe any problem, which was why I lent them the car.”

Craig’s gaze brightened. “You mean, you actually lent the car to his girlfriend, who had a driver’s license,right?”

James nodded. “That’s right. I’m not a fool, so why would I lend a car to someone without a driver’slicense?”

“Bullsh*t!” Jonah immediately refuted. “You didn’t know his girlfriend, so why would you lend the car toher? James, why are you so shameless?”

Just when James wanted to speak, Craig uttered gently, “According to the law, there’s nothing wrongwith lending stuff to strangers.”

With a smug smile, James taunted, “Did you hear that? That was a professional reply!”

Jonah said through gritted teeth, “It was my son who drove the car in the end, so they had actually lentthe car to my son.”

“It doesn’t matter who drove the car in the end,” Craig slowly replied. “The most important thing is whodrove the car away from you. Mr. Cunningham, do you remember what happened?”

James hurriedly answered, “It was his girlfriend who drove the car away. I saw it with my eyes. It was hisgirlfriend!”
