Chapter 125


    Selena was at a loss of words. Fane treated money like nothing; it was as though those stacks of


    banknotes were rolls of toilet paper to him. He was too generous t o the woman.


    "Well, how much should I have given her? Should I go get it back?”


    After thinking about it, however, Fane changed his mind. "Forget it. There’s no reason for me to collect


    the water poured out from the bottle!"


    Selena continued to stay speechless and merely gave him a dry smile. "Never mind. My husband is


    earning 2 0 million a month, anyway! We’ll be rich after two months of you working for the Drake family,


    and millionaires after a year or two."


    "Honey, we''re not short of money now, though..."


    "Keep boasting, especially now that your pocket is almost empty." Selena clicked her tongue. "You


    have t o learn how to manage your finances better, got that? I wouldn''t be spending so much money on


    dinner if it was not to trim Sonia''s ego down."


    "No, no, no! You have to start preparing to be a freaking rich woman, Honey,” Fane rebutted. "Besides,


    I dream of having another wedding and take you out o n a private jet in the future!" "Are you sure? I


    don''t think it''s a good idea, since we


    have a four-year-old now. Wouldn''t it be ridiculous for us to have another wedding?"


    They continued to banter as they rode on the electric scooter. Joy and happiness bloomed inside


    Selena like a warm ray of sunshine that melted her ice-cold heart.


    Selena slowly realized that love had blossomed between them as though they had just started dating.


    Perhaps this was what people always said, ''fall for your spouse after marriage''.


    On the other hand, after a series of terrifying events, Jessica did not stay long and left the KTV soon


    after. She hailed a cab and went in it, and she soon arrived a t an oldmunity housing area. She


    returned to her home with the woven bag in her arms.


    "Lil brother, why did you discharge Father from the hospital?"


    Jessica was startled at the presence of her father. Her father, who was supposed to be receiving


    treatment in the ward, was lying in the dpidated old rental house.


    "We''ve spent every penny, yet there''s still a 30 thousand bill from the hospital waiting for us. The doctor


    said that we don’t have to pay the bill, but our father can no longer be treated in the hospital. We have


    no choice but to bring him back," Jessica''s mother replied. "Your father is about to get the surgery the


    day after tomorrow. What now? How can we afford the 100 thousand operation when we can''t even


    pay u p the 30 thousand outstanding bnce?"


    Jessica''s younger brother, Jack Fair, sighed as well." It''s all my fault! I''m so useless that I can''t get a

    high-paying job! Not only our father''s operation cost, but I can''t even support our family expenses!


    Even if we managed to pay the operation fee, what about the postsurgery recuperation cost? That’s a


    different bill on its own!"


    It was only then when Jack noticed that his sister was in a disheveled state. Her hair was disheveled


    like beached kelp after a storm, and her clothes were torn a t the sides. "This is strange, Sister.


    Shouldn''t you be finished with your work at two in the morning? It''s only a little bit after 10 in the


    evening, so why are you back early?" he asked.


    "Lady Luck has obviously left me behind today." Jessica breathed a deep sigh and continued, "I met a


    group of b*stards today at work, and they want me to sle..." She trailed off before she continued,"


    Fortunately, the kind Mr. Woods rescued me from their dirty hands! If you were there with me, you''d


    know how amazing Mr. Woods truly is! Dozens of b* stards fell to the ground without even touching the


    corner of his shirt. I feel like this Mr. Woods is no ordinary man. Those underlings of Young Master


    Clock or rke-whatever-were terrified of him!”


    "Wow! That''s so cool! How I wish I could be like him!"


    Jake daydreamed with admiration stered on his face. Only then did he notice the woven bag in his


    sister''s arm. "Sis, why did you bring thisrge woven bag from work? Are you collecting recyble


    items to earn some?"


    "I don’t know what’s inside the bag, either. Mrs. Woods had Mr. Woods help me out, and he handed me


    this bag," Jessica responded with a sense of confusion in her tone. 2


    ’’This woven bag...is filled up with garbage, isn’t it? Still ...that’s not right. Would you go to an opulent


    ce to have fun with a bag like this?"


    Jack unzipped the woven bag as he spoke mindlessly t 0 himself.


    His jaw nearly went unhinged before he mped his mouth shut.


    "My Lord, it''s money! T-This is too much money!"


    "What? Money?”


    Jessica’s and her mother’s jaws dropped at his words and immediately went over to see the content


    inside the woven bag. Hot tears filled up their eyes in an instant. With this amount of money, their father


    could be saved!
