Chapter 91
Haley’s point of view
Paddy drew a check and made a note of the amount. I took it and checked it. ten, hundred, thousand, million, ten million…,
He gave me the entire sum of $50 million –
“Mr. Haley is a shrewd businessman. I don’t want to hear rumors anyplace in the future, and I don’t want to see your daughter again.”
“Yes… Yes…” despite my grief, I exchanged 30 million for a little life, which was enough to provide food and clothing for the entire family for the rest of their lives. I barely make 50000 dollars a month as a manager, you know. Aside from housing debts, I must carefully calculate my living expenses. There is little left in a month after paying for a hired servant driver and daily expenses.
Lucy is now planning to study overseas. I can spend 50 million yuan in any way if she has it. Lucy will be happier if she travels.
My heart felt a sliver of relief after thinking about this.
The operating room door slammed open, and numerous physicians and nurses rushed out.
“Doctor, how’s everything going with my daughter?” I rushed forward and inquired.
“The patient is no longer in danger, although she is still rather young. Her body was harmed as a result of the abortion. The chances of becoming pregnant in the future are slim. Psychologically, your family members should be prepared.” The first doctor brought up.
“What are you talking about?” My brain buzzed, and I was taken aback.
How is that possible? Lucy is so young? How can you say she’ll never have another child?
“The patient will soon be moved to the VIP ward. You are welcome to visit her. Excuse me first.”
“Lucy, my Lucy…” With tears streaming down my face, I stepped forward and walked away from the scene .
Trista’s point of view
“Are you satisfied now?” I was so angry that I slapped Paddy in the face.
Paddy not only didn’t become angry, but he even grabbed and kissed my hand. He inquired softly, “It’s a little too light. You didn’t eat, did you?”
I’m becoming irritated.
“Still hesitant to beat? I’ll treat you to a meal. Do you like Easten or Western cuisine? In city an or abroad?”
“Do you have a conscience, Paddy? For you, a girl just had an abortion. How can you discuss what you should eat, where you should travel, and whether your blood is cold? What is life’s most fundamental conscience?” I scolded vehemently.
“She did it herself. What does it have to do with me?” When Paddy’s phone rang, he hadn’t finished his explanation. “What’s up?” he said as he grasped my hand with one hand and withdrew his phone from his trouser pocket with the other.
Paddy’s point of view
“Master. Our golden club had been sealed. All of the visitors were escorted out. It was bursting with explosives. Directional blasting will be carried out in ten minutes.”
“What are you talking about?” Who did it all of a sudden
“Of course it’s me.”
When the elevator door opened, the man in a white sweater walked in slowly. His seductive lips elicited an ugly smirk. His chilly emotion rolled across his deep gaze. He has the hubris of a lofty king.
Donald?
What brings him here?
What made him think they were here?
“What are our grievances, Mr. Donald? As for letting my family’s money run out?” I gave him a chilly stare.
“Just because you’re holding my wife’s hand now, you’ll pay a higher price if you don’t release it.”
I shrugged and stepped away from Trista. “It’s only a smidgeon. Is it really that serious?”
“My wife is invaluable. Only I have the ability to touch her.” “If you think you still have this capital challenge next time,” he murmured coldly, holding Trista in his arms, “I don’t mind accompanying you to the end.”
“You…”
He turned away from me and put the bag into Trista’s arms. Donald spoke in hushed tones. “You’re used to high-end customization clothes. How can odinary clothes fit you? Go ahead and change it.”
Trista gathered her belongings and entered the next bathroom.
“Mr. Donald, Trista’s outfits are identical to Mr. Donald’s. They’re all high-end, custom-made products, and they’re all quite pricey.” I made a remark.
“Really?” “Buy Armany and turn it into the logo of the lion group from tomorrow,” Donald said to the person on the other end of the line.
I found myself speechless.ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
“This brand is no longer in existence.”
I wasn’t expecting him to be that cocky “Is it a bit stingy to deal with me in this way, as the first of the four great masters in City A? You’ll kill them all if you don’t like it. You’re breaking the market order.”
“Donald, I changed it.” Trista came out with her changed clothes.
Donald threw the clothes back to me. “Keep your distance from my wife in the future, or I’ll change all your brands into the lion group’s logo.”
I can’t keep the smile on my face any longer!
“Let’s get out of here.” Donald was ready to depart when he clutched her waist –
“Donald, it was Trista who originally drew my attention. Don’t blame me for continuing to rob if you treat her terribly in this life! If there’s any news in my ears, I’m not going to give up on Trista!” I yelled as I turned around to face their backs.
“Well, I’m afraid you won’t have a chance in your life.”
“Why?” I asked puzzled.
“Because I’ll be good to her, so good that she’ll stay with me for the rest of her life.” “You never have a chance.”
“Don’t be arrogant! I’m betting you’ll break up in a year. Let us see!” After I yelled, I shouted at Trista, “Trista, you don’t know him at all. Do you have any knowledge about his background? When someone treats you well, you get hot headed. It’s time to change your habit. Don’t forget the lesson given by emos!”
Trista’s point of view
My heart was taken aback. What experience does Donald have? Isn’t this the first time he’s had a woman? His love history is spotless, and his warmth is genuine. Paddy must be intimidating me. He must be!
I’m not going to believe it!
I can’t believe what I’m hearing. Paddy must be attempting to sabotage Donald and my love, so he purposefully sows dissension!
“If he treats you badly, come back to me at any time!” Paddy said, “I’ll follow through on what I just said. If you look back on this life, I guarantee you that I will only love you!”
I was upset when I entered the elevator. The instant the door shut, the entire world fell silent.
Donald snatched my face from my hands. “Don’t worry, I’ll never forget about you.”
I gazed up at him, worried and apprehensive.
“What I said will be proven by time.” He said firmly.
“I’m only concerned about Lucy’s health. The doctor predicted that the procedure would result in infertility.” I swiftly shifted the conversation’s focus.
“There is a hospital that specialized in post-abortion physical rehabilitation. I can arrange her there if her parents don’t object.”
“Really?”
“When did I lie to you?”
“Wonderful!” I said.
He grabbed my hand and we went out of the elevator. “However, this hospital is located in the United States, and it is expensive and takes a long time to go to. I’m not sure their family will accept it.”
“I’m confident they can. They would be happy with the result !”
Besides, Paddy just handed over $50 million to Lucy’s father. The treatment expense is not an issue at all!
“Don’t you give me a reward?” Donald came to a halt and said.
I was taken aback.
” Don’t you appreciate what I’ve done for you?”
What a jumble of ideas. He expresses a strong desire to assist. But he blames all on me.
“You haven’t given me any welfare recently. Do you want me to return it to you?”
All of a sudden, my face got bright crimson. It was humiliating to be observed in public. I hastily shifted the subject at this point “I’m starving. I didn’t eat much throughout the day. I’ll go out and get some food first.”
“Go together.”
“No, I can handle it on my own.”
“Did you remember to bring your wallet?”
I suddenly realized that I had been working for a long time and had yet to earn my first salary. I am now penniless. I’m not sure where I’ll acquire the money to buy some late-night food… He is in charge of practically everything, including clothing, food, shelter, and transportation.
“Do you mind if I suggest a delicious destination for you to visit?” He couldn’t resist taking my hand in his.
At the gate, an RV was already parked. “Young master, young lady, please,” IRA said as he opened the door.
“Where? Is it open till such a late hour?” I walked inside the car after Donald.
