Chapter 317 Extortion

Few could endure the optics of a bawling old woman. Naturally, some of the bystanders were
compelled to mediate.

“Come on, Eilis! Look at Mrs. Boebert. She’s so old and can barely walk on her own these days. You
can’t possibly think she came to you, despite the difficulty, just so she could slander you in public,
right?

“Besides, nobody wants an unresolvable conflict among ourselves, right? This is a small place, Eilis.
Tell, uh, that girl to apologize and get this over with.”

“Amen to that! We are a tight-knit community. We know everyone here, drink the same water, and live
under the same sky. It doesn’t do any of us good if the community splits because of something so
trivial, right? Something as trivial as picking a fight with a little kid, too! If I may be frank, Eilis, do you
really think that young lass is as trustworthy as you hope?”

Their comments were like thorns stinging Deirdre’s chest.

Eilis, however, was having none of it. That’s enough!” She erupted in rage.

Even if she did care a great deal about maintaining the village’s peace, she s… wanted to defend
Deirdre. Eilis was fed up, and her face visibly trembled. “If you all want to frame this whole incident as
my Dee Dee picking a fight with a kid, then why don’t you all also consider that Bobby is picking a fight
with a blind. -woman?! Dee Dee can’t see a thing, people! She could not even harm Bobby unless that
imp started it

first!



“And Lord Almighty, have any of you no shred of sympathy!? Why can’t you all just be a bit nicer to her
after all the terrible ordeals she went through? Ask yourselves: when did her late mother ever mistreat
any of you when she was alive, huh!?”

The bystanders suddenly fell silent.

Deirdre took a deep breath. She must not let Eilis alienate the rest of the village any further. As these
people had said, everyone knew everyone else in a small village like this one. Next to everyone’s
peace and co-existence, Deirdre’s thoughts simply did not matter.

“Madame Russell?” She spoke up and smiled softly. “Thank you for sticking up for me, but I think… I
think I’m the one at fault here. It’s true. I shouldn’t have picked a fight with a child.”

“Darn it, Dee Dee! You got to stop being so nice, or everyone’s gonna wipe their boots with you, you
hear me?” Eilis refuted hotly.

That tragic smile she displayed pained Eilis a lot. “They are lucky that all you got was an external
wound. What if you ended up with head trauma, huh?”

Deirdre cast her blind eyes to the floor. “Which is why I’ve decided to leave this house as little as
possible from now on.”

The crowd looked down uncomfortably.

Deirdre steeled herself and turned to the old woman. “Mrs. Boebert? I formally apologize to you and
your grandson. I shouldn’t have picked a fight with a child, and I promise I won’t do this anymore. I
hope that you and Bobby can forgive me.”

Mrs. Boebert, unfortunately, did not plan to let things slide so easily. “Ha, will you look at that! If an
apology is all we need, then why do we need the criminal justice system and law enforcement?” Eilis



saw red. “What!? You said you only wanted an explanation!”

Mrs. Boebert glared at her. “Oh, did I? When? Look at Bobby’s arm! It’s all sore and red! God knows
this requires a medical examination, Eilis. I mean, what if his bone was fractured? You can’t possibly
think a full body checkup doesn’t require expenses, right?

“Let’s just cut to the chase. 300 dollars compensation and we’re good. Otherwise, one guess.”

The answer was so obvious it did not need to be stated. She was not going to leave unless she
received 300 dollars from them.

Everything about her proposal was preposterous. Even the well-manned Deirdre could not help but
clench her hands into fists. She took a deep breath and raised her voice. “Fine.”

Mrs. Boebert’s face lit up. Before she could express more of her joy, though, Deirdre quickly added,
“But your grandson hurt me too. I guess that means I should also do a medical checkup in the hospital,
right? Your grandson injured my head, see. Even if it seems like I’m fine for now, I can’t rule out side
effects in the future. To prevent unexpected problems with my brain, I will have to perform medical
checkups every few months. Can you pay for all of that from here on out?”

“You b*tch!” Mrs Boebert shrieked. She leaped to her feet and lurched at Deirdre. “How dare you try to
extort money from me!?”

Eilis quickly stepped between them. “Extort you, Mrs. Boebert? We could never! We’re just following
your logic. If your grandson’s injury warrants a checkup, then Dee Dee’s injury is just as deserving,
don’t your agree?
