  • Keep Scratching My Car, I'll Keep Leveling Up   Chapter 9

    I glanced at the flood of pleading messages on my phone screen and immediately left the group chat without saying a word.At 2:00 pm, the resident who had led the charge in posting my photos and spreading rumors in the group chat was in a meeting at his company. The attorney Jared had sent personally delivered a sternly worded legal letter to him in front of his manager and all his colleagues.The meeting was cut short on the spot, and his department manager called him into the office for a private discussion right away. Their conversation lasted less than ten minutes.He ended up resigning voluntarily on the grounds that the company couldn't keep an employee who posed serious legal and ethical risks.Meanwhile, the permed-haired woman who had stuck that filthy note on my door and torn my blouse was at a card club, bragging to her friends about how she had taught the troublemaker in the building a lesson.Two officers pushed the door open and walked straight up to her. "Are you Ba

    Jared pressed a button on the remote control, and a clear audio recording began to play.It was exactly what Jim had told the police when they came to mediate a few days earlier. "She seems mentally unstable… The surveillance cameras just happened to stop working…"Jared closed his laptop and said coldly, "Mr. Griffin, you abused your position on multiple occasions to cover up criminal acts committed by your subordinate, including provoking disturbances, intentional destruction of property, and sexual assault."You also deliberately shut off power to the surveillance system. When the police came to gather evidence, you provided a fabricated statement in an attempt to mislead them. Your actions already constitute obstruction of justice, abuse of authority, and aiding in the concealment of criminal acts."Jim looked at the evidence on the screen, then at Dexter, who was still kneeling on the ground and clearly terrified out of his wits. He suddenly rushed forward and kicked Dexter.

    Suddenly, the women screamed from the balconies above, followed by the sound of cups shattering onto the ground.Dexter, kneeling on the ground, suddenly clutched my heels with both hands and wailed, "Ms. Stanton, I really know I was wrong! It's all my brother-in-law's fault! Jim was the one who told me to do all this!"He said you were just a woman from out of town with no connections and that I could bully you however I wanted. He said if I drove you out, we could buy your apartment at a low price. Please let me off just this once! I have a wife and kids to support! I'm begging you!"As he cried, he slapped himself hard across both cheeks over and over. Sharp smacks rang out, and blood soon seeped from the corner of his mouth.I pulled my foot back in disgust and took half a step backward. "When you threw my takeouts in the trash, why didn't you think about your wife and kids? When you led people to pound on my door in the middle of the night, and when you pinned me against the w

    The baton in Dexter's hand hit the ground with a loud clang. His knees buckled, and he collapsed onto the floor.He shouted incoherently, his eyes wild, "1… 120 thousand dollars? Are you out of your damn minds? That's just a beat-up Corolla with some pink film slapped on it! You… You're all working together to rip me off!"Jared Richardson, the legal director, adjusted his glasses, pulled a damage assessment report stamped with an official seal from his briefcase, and threw it straight at Dexter's face.Jared said, "Read it carefully. One scratch costs 120 thousand dollars. Based on the complete surveillance footage we obtained, you caused a total of five scratches. Add to that the two custom puncture-resistant tires you slashed, the soundproof glass you shattered, and all the other damage—"Jared looked at him and stated the final amount, "The total compensation comes to 4.12 million dollars."Dexter snapped his head up and stared at me. The arrogance and smugness in his eyes had

    At exactly 8:00 am the next morning, I pushed open the building door, and everyone who saw me stopped in their tracks. I wore a tailored black suit with my long hair pinned neatly at the back of my head, and my four-inch stilettos clicked loudly against the bluestone tiles with every step.Dexter spotted me from a distance and let out a wolf whistle. "Oh, what's with the fancy outfit today? Are you going to see your old sugar daddy? Have him give you more money so you can fix that crappy car of yours!"I walked straight past the security booth without turning my head or slowing down.Feeling ignored, Dexter cursed angrily and stormed out of the booth after me. "Stop right there! I'm talking to you!"After taking two steps, he stopped for no clear reason. The sight of my tall figure dressed in black suddenly made him uneasy.…At 9:00 am, Jim sat in his office with his feet propped up, playing a game on his phone. Suddenly, the internal landline rang. The caller ID showed an exten

    I watched the young guard walk away and noted down his badge number.The next day, the property management office posted a public notice on the bulletin board. The heading was printed in large red letters that read, "Notice of Mandatory Removal of Residents with Misconduct Records."Their stated reason was that I had seriously violated community regulations and damaged the complex's reputation. They demanded that I move out within 30 days.The notice was stamped with the property management's official seal. Attached beside it was a sheet filled with more than ten residents' signatures. Most of those signatures had been collected by Dexter, who went door-to-door pressuring residents into signing.I went to a nearby real estate agency to check the market. The moment I walked in, the agent looked me up and down with a suggestive expression. "Chantelle, it's you. Someone's made an offer on your unit, which is 40% lower than the market price.""Why has the price dropped so much?" I ask
