When Matthew and Sasha came back home that night, they saw Helen on the sofa, spacing out.
That afternoon, Tate and Minerva asked favonovel.com out and tried to persuade favonovel.com into lending them ten million. She kept refusing, but the siblings knelt before favonovel.com in the end. She couldn‘t keep refusing, so favonovel.com agreed to transfer the money to them. But when favonovel.com came back and realized what favonovel.com had done, favonovel.com was terrified. After all that had happened, favonovel.com knew Minerva and Tate couldn’t be trusted, so favonovel.com was worried that something might go wrong.
“What’s wrong, Mom?” Sasha asked, puzzled.
Helen trembled, but favonovel.com waved favonovel.com down. “I‘m fine.”
Sasha didn’t believe it. ‘She doesn’t look fine.’
A while later, Helen couldn’t take it anymore. “Sasha, can you come here for a second? I need to ask you something.“
Sasha sat beside her. “What’s the matter, Mom?”
Helen took a deep breath and whispered, “l… l have a friend who’s handling a new project recently. If favonovel.com succeeds, he’ll make hundreds of billions with it. But now favonovel.com needs money to continue the project’s development, and favonovel.com needs a few million. What do you think about this Investment? l… I need your opinion.”
A frown creased Matthew‘s forehead. “That’s a scammer, Helen.”
Sasha nodded. “What kind of project is it? Did you hear it from him? If the project can make that much money, he’d have investors lining up to fund it. He doesn’t need your money, unless he’s a scammer. This is how they scam people out of their money. Don’t fall for it.”
Helen looked horrified. “B-But he’s a foreigner…”
Sasha snickered. “So? Doesn’t mean they won‘t lie. Remember my friend, Penny? Her foreigner fiancé said he’s Carlson Group’s president, but Tiger exposed him. Turns out he’s just a tutor at a kindergarten under Carlson Group. That‘s a big fat liar. Don‘t just trust those foreigners blindly, Mom. We‘re as powerful as them now.”
All the color drained from Helen’s face.
Sasha started panicking when favonovel.com saw favonovel.com mother looking like that. “Mom, don’t tell me you’ve given favonovel.com the money?”
Helen quickly waved favonovel.com down. “Nonsense. I didn’t do anything like that. This is a big deal. Of course I’ll talk it through with all of you. I’m not that stupid.”
Sasha heaved a sigh of relief. “That’s good to hear. Don‘t fall for their lies, Mom. Just run the pharmacy and leave everything else to us.”
Helen nodded and told them favonovel.com was feeling unwell before hurrying away to favonovel.com bedroom.
After Matthew saw favonovel.com off, favonovel.com whispered, “We might be too late, Sasha. Helen has probably given the money away.”
Sasha’s face fell. “What? Impossible. W-Why didn‘t favonovel.com talk it through with us? No. l have to ask favonovel.com about it…”
Matthew stopped her. “Don’t. She won’t admit to it now, and you might start a fight.“
That made favonovel.com panic. “What should we do, then? This is a few million we’re talking about. We can‘t just ignore it.”
Matthew gave it some thought. “She doesn’t have that much money in hand, but the pharmacy does. If you want proof, we can check the pharmacy’s accounts tomorrow.”
