Chapter 3061


    Anne froze upon hearing John’s idea.


    A secondter, she sighed and nodded.


    “Alright. I’ll be off now.” John sighed as he took the empty cup from her. “I know that neither of us would


    even blink an eye for ten thousand dors in the past, but…”

    Things have changed.


    10000 dors was more than enough to cover their household expenses for three months and


    temporarily relieve their financial burden. He wanted to do everything he could to get his hands on the


    money.


    The look Anne cast at him was full of helplessness and remorse.


    She wrapped her arms around John’s body and gently kissed his jaw. Finally, she fixed her gaze on


    him, as though she was trying to tell him that she would support him no matter what.


    Although Anne could no longer speak, they were soulmates and could understand each other with just


    one nce.


    Therefore, John understood exactly what she was trying to convey to him.


    He nodded before finally walking out of the room and closing the door gently behind him. Then, he


    tiptoed to the kitchen to put down Anne’s cup before leaving the house.


    He lit a cigarette as he strode down the stairwell and texted the real estate agent. [How much for a pair


    of keys to the apartment across?]


    He knew that there was no such thing as free lunch; the real estate agent would never give out such


    benefits free of charge.


    To his surprise, the real estate agent replied


    John paused momentarily, then replied, (Yes, I am.]


    [Alright then. It’s okay, it’s free for you! Come to the first- floor lobby to get the keys. I’m close with


    Robyn, and I know the troubles you guys are facing. Just think of this as my way of helping you guys.]


    John’s heart tingled with relief. He sprinted down to


    “Here. This is the key to unit number 501, block 12. From what I heard, those men haven’t gone there


    yet.”


    John nodded and thanked the real estate agent, then walked out of the building.


    He wrapped his coat around himself and followed the rest of the tenants who were trying to sneak into


    the building across.


    As they trudged along the path, one of the neighbors shot John a suit, for God’s sake. Why do you


    even need this ten thousand dors?”


    John smiled and nced back at the man who


    With that, he handed the man a cigarette and asked sharply, “Aren’t you doing the same?”


    The man was rendered speechless by John’s reply. A split secondter, he took the cigarette from


    John and gave him a thumbs-up in admiration. “You’re a brave man. I salute you.


    John smiled before turning and leaping over the fence that separated the two buildings. “I appreciate


    yourpliment, but all I’m trying to do is care for my family.”


    His only wish was to see Anne, Sammie, and Robyn live healthy and happy lives.


    “And I’m certain you will achieve that!” the man grinned.


    John did not reply and instead headed straight to block 12.


    When he finally found unit 501 and opened the door with his key, however, he realized this was not a


    vacant unit as the real estate agent promised.


    As soon as he entered the door, he felt the cold barrel of a gun against his forehead. “Who the hell are


    you?”
