Chapter 814


    Then, Dorian said immediately, "I received a notification here that says the money has been


    transferred."


    ine quickly opened the mobile banking app on her phone to check. She frowned frustratedly and


    asked," Why haven''t I received it yet?" 1


    "Oh, don''t worry, this is 21.9 billion, after all. When such arge amount of money is involved, the


    banking system has to repeatedly confirm the transaction and also report it to the headquarters for


    filing purposes, so it will take a while for the transfer t oplete." 4


    ine growled in frustration. "Oh my god, are you kidding me? Do I have to wait? How long do I


    have to wait?!"


    "I''m not sure, it will take either tens of minutes or maybe up to one working day"


    "Oh my god, why does it take so long? Hurry and urge the system to work faster or I''ll order the


    Citibank to fire you!" 1


    "It''s not up to me to control it, it''s the decision from the headquarters. My hands are tied even if you


    sue m e in court..." 1


    From the looks of it, ine determined that this Dorian guy had no power nor right to speed up the


    transaction, so she huffed angrily, "Argh! If I had known that it would take so long, I would’ve


    transferred one million first before proceeding with the next step. Argh! I''m so pissed!" 4


    "You can wait for the transaction toplete here."


    ine felt as if someone was poking her internal organs, she was ticklish and ufortable.


    21.9 billion!


    She felt extremely restless even if the transaction was one secondte.


    However, there was nothing she could do except to wait. 1


    "Okay, I’ll wait here. You! Go and pour me a cup of coffee! I want the best coffee you have!" 5


    "Okay, I''ll be right on it!" 1


    Meanwhile, back at Thompson First vi, Charlie headed to the living room after tidying up the


    kitchen. Jacob waved at him with a smile and said, "Good son-i nw,e, sit down and have a


    cup of tea."


    "Okay." Charlie sat next to him without hesitation.


    Jacob hurriedly poured him a cup of tea and said with a grateful smile, "Hey, it’s all thanks to you


    that I get to sit in thisfortable vi drinking tea. Come, have a sip."


    Charlie nodded. "Thanks, Dad."


    He picked up the teacup and took a sip, then secretly shook his head. 1


    Jacob had been indeed living an indigent and thrifty life due to the fact that he didn’t have much


    money himself. This tea was worth three hundred dors per kilo at most but he still enjoyed it like it


    was some precious gem. 3


    Jacob smiled as he sipped the tea. "This tea is of top quality, I bought it from the granddaughter of a


    tea farmer on Facebook for five thousand dors per kilo.


    I was not willing to spend more on it, so I bought a hundred grams from her, and will be drinking it a


    little at a time." 4


    Charlie asked in bewilderment, "A tea farmer''s granddaughter? Did her grandfather fall sick and she


    had to sell his top-quality tea at a dirt-cheap price so that she could take him to the doctors?" 2


    "Oh, how do you know?" Jacob giggled, "Good tea is hard toe by, especially at a lower price. I


    just happened to stumble upon a great chance to grab


    such good quality tea at a low price. If you like it, TH give you someter."


    Charlie sighed helplessly, "Dad, it''s a scam on the Inte. You''ve been deceived."


    "Impossible!" Jacob said with a serious face, "The girl i s very kind! She even showed me videos


    and pictures!" 3

    Charlieughed, amused. "It’s all made up, they have fake materials and information to scam


    people like you. It is possible that the ''girl'' that you were talking t o was actually a shabby old man."


    As he was speaking, he secretly thought that Jacob rarely had a chance to stumble upon the real


    deal since his life was rather pathetic and underprivileged. 2


    When he was young, the tea that he drank with his father was not sold by the catty or kilo, but by


    the gram, and none of the tea was cheaper than gold. 5


    However, he knew that his father-inw had no luck i n trying such a fine quality tea, so he decided


    that he would buy the real top-quality tea for him to try someday.


    Just then, he received a text message on his phone.


    "Dear Mr. Charlie Wade, the fund transfer of $ 21,900,000,000.00 from your ck card ount at


    15:0 2 today is sessful." 4


    Charlie frowned in great dismay when he read the message and cursed, "What the f*ck!"
