Chapter 703 – Paying Three Million Dollars
Christine White didn’t know what was going on in Cici Jagu’s mind and waited with Aunt Lucy Xiaobao for Baird Lane to come over.
Across the street Cici Jagu and Nana Dodge two people were panicking in their hearts.
They didn’t expect that a good walk would lead to such a mess.
It was all Cici Jagu’s fault!
At this moment, Nana Dodge couldn’t help but blame Cici Jagu.
If I had known that her hands were so cheap, I wouldn’t have brought her here.
Thinking about this, Nana Dodge glared angrily at Cici Jagu.
Cici Jagu sensed it and was surprised in her heart.
Nana Dodge actually complained about her?
This stupid bitch, actually blamed her?
Watching the two women on the opposite side of the room in a clear battle, Christine White pulled the corner of her mouth and couldn’t help but sneer out.
She thought how good these two people’s feelings were, but she didn’t expect it to be like this, they were really plastic sisters!
Not long after, several footsteps sounded.
Christine White searched for the sound and saw Baird Lane walking over with a few people, one of which was Elder Dodge.
Baird Lane came to Christine White and first nodded to Christine White, then stroked little baby’s hair before asking, “What’s going on?”
When the servants went to him, they didn’t say what had happened, only that Christine White and the two ladies had gotten into an argument.
So he brought someone to dry over in a hurry.
Christine White pointed at the peony in Cici Jagu’s hand, “That Miss Jagu , removed Grandpa’s favorite flower when he was alive.”
“What?” Baird Lane’s face changed, he twisted his head to look and saw the flower cupped in Cici Jagu’s hand, his expression was instantly icy cold to the extreme, “Who told you to pick it?”
Dodge senior did not go to see Cici Jagu, after all, Cici Jagu is not his own granddaughter, only said to go to see Nana Dodge, with a look to ask Nana Dodge again did not pick the flowers.
Nana Dodge shook her head and said she hadn’t picked them.
Dodge’s oldest son breathed a huge sigh of relief.
Did not pick it is good, if Nana also picked it, today this matter, may have to make a big fuss.
“I … I …” In the face of Baird Lane’s questioning, Cici Jagu’s small face was white and almost transparent, her red eyes were about to cry, “I’m sorry Mr. Lane, I didn’t mean to do it, I didn’t know that this flower was so expensive, I … Sorry!”
Saying that, her tears fell down in big chunks, and she also bowed towards Baird Lane.
Christine White watched from the side with a cold face, but rolled her eyes in her heart.
This woman is really funny, when she just questioned, she didn’t see crying like this.
Now when Baird Lane came, she cried so pitifully, it is obvious that she is pretending.
Aunt Lucy also saw it, her eyes full of disgust, “Mrs., this woman is too disgusting.”
She came to Christine White’s ear and whispered.
Christine White raised her finger and made a don’t speak motion.
Aunt Lucy nods and doesn’t say anything.
Baird Lane looked at Cici Jagu with a cold face, “Not on purpose? The flowers are in your hands and you say you didn’t do it on purpose?”
“I really …”
“There!” Dodge old man also somewhat tired of interrupting Cici Jagu, and then raised a smile to Baird Lane, “That what, Baird ah, this girl is brought by me, she really does not know the significance of that flower, or let’s spare her once, how about letting her compensate for this flower?”
Nana Dodge also looked at Baird Lane, “Yes brother Baird, now that the flowers have been picked and can’t be put back, how about compensating for it?”
Although she had some resentment in her heart against Cici Jagu for picking the flowers and causing trouble.
But Cici Jagu was ultimately accompanying her to take a break, and she couldn’t really ignore Cici Jagu.
Cici Jagu looked at Nana Dodge and Elder Dodge with a touched face, “Nana , Grandpa Jiang …”
Baird Lane didn’t agree and turned her head to Christine White, “What do you think?”
Christine White lowered her eyes and smiled, “Dodge old man and Ms. Jiang is right, the flowers have been picked, indeed can not be loaded back, then pay for it.”
Baird Lane with what she said, slightly nodded, “Then pay for it, this flower is an endangered species and a protected plant, the selling price is over twenty million dollars, you picked one, roughly the price is at three million.”
“Three million?” Cici Jagu exclaimed in shock.
Why was it so expensive!
It was just a flower, and she was actually asked to pay three million dollars?
Thinking about it, Cici Jagu bit her lower lip and looked at the man with a sly grudge, as if accusing the man of how could he be like this, how could he make her pay out so much!
Elder Dodge and Nana Dodge were also surprised by the price.
To Master Dodge, three million dollars wasn’t too much, but when it came to buying a flower, it was something else.
But he had no intention of pleading for Cici Jagu, instead he nodded, “Three million then, Cici , you made this mess yourself, you’ll have to take responsibility for it yourself.”
Although Cici Jagu was unwilling in her heart, she still nodded her head and agreed with a hmmm.
Three million is three million.
“Mr. Lane, can you give me a time limit, can’t get that much money in a while.” Cici Jagu blinked and looked at the man prayerfully.
Christine White let out a soft laugh as she looked down.
She knew the woman would say that for sure.
Baird Lane also knew the woman couldn’t come up with three million dollars at a time, after all, she still owed Christine millions for the dress payout she hadn’t paid.
“Yes, I’ll have someone give you an IOU to pay it off in six months, with Master Dodge as a guarantor.” Baird Lane glanced at Dodge senior.Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
The corner of Dodge senior’s mouth twitched, although he was a bit reluctant, he didn’t say anything and nodded his head to agree, “Alright, I’ll guarantee it.”
The so-called guarantee was just a middleman.
If Cici Jagu pays the money on time it’s fine, nothing will happen to the guarantor, but if Cici Jagu doesn’t pay the money on time, then the guarantor will have to pay it back for her.
“Thank you Grandpa Jiang.” Cici Jagu smiled gratefully at Elder Dodge.
Elder Dodge wanted to roll his eyes in his heart, but on his face, he still smiled back, “No need, you’re Nana’s friend, you should be.”
Saying that, he couldn’t help but secretly pinch Nana Dodge’s arm.
Nana Dodge wanted to cry out in pain, but when she saw her grandfather’s warning look, she silently swallowed her words of crying out in pain.
Christine White couldn’t help but laugh out loud again when she saw this.
“Come on, to the den!” Baird Lane said, picking up little baby with one hand and wrapping his arm around Christine White’s waist, heading towards the study.
Master Dodge and his entourage followed.
Cici Jagu and Nana Dodge looked at Baird Lane’s hand on Christine White’s waist, their hearts were crazy with jealousy, but they didn’t dare to show it, so they could only silently swallow the bitter water of love.
Soon, the IOU came out.
Cici Jagu signed it.
Elder Dodge then offered his farewell, taking Nana Dodge and Cici Jagu away.
After sending Cici Jagu to the place, Elder Dodge said to Nana Dodge’s with a serious face, “Nana , stay away from that Cici Jagu in the future.”
“What’s wrong?” Nana Dodge was a bit puzzled.
Elder Dodge gripped the head of his walking stick tightly and grimaced, “That girl is not simple, earlier I looked away, thinking it was a soft and weak girl, I didn’t realize that her heart was so deep, and she also loves to get into trouble.”
“Deep heart?” Nana Dodge blinked her eyes, seemingly somewhat disbelieving.
Dodge senior boarded his old face, “Yes, can’t you see, that girl likes Baird just like you.”
“What?” Nana Dodge exclaimed with a look of disbelief, “She likes brother Baird? How is that possible!”
“What’s impossible!”
Nana Dodge clenched her palms, “Cici said that she has a crush on someone she met abroad.”
“Hmph, that would be Baird, Baird some time ago, wasn’t he on his honeymoon trip abroad, maybe Cici Jagu met Baird by chance, and moved on to Baird, just that at that time, she didn’t know that it was Baird!” Dodge senior said with narrowed old eyes.
