Chapter 541


    Elliott dared not leave and called his supervisor again to exin and plead.


    The supervisor said, “Do you still want this job? Think about it!”


    Then he hung up the phone.


    Elliott looked at the phone, feeling both angry and anxious. He didn’t dare to vent his anger at Crystal a


    nd just felt restless.


    After strolling for a while, Crystal got tired and they found a café to sit down. Crystal said, “My mom sai


    d, you guys just bought a house and probably do not have much money at this moment. Give us 300,0


    00, that’ll do!”


    Crystal was pregnant, and although the house wasn’t fully renovated yet, they couldn’t dy any more.


    The Sullivans wanted to get the wedding done first.


    Elliott was stunned, “300,000? If we give your


    family 300,000, we won’t have money for the renovation!”


    Crystal frowned, “That’s the money I got back. It has nothing to do with your family. You go ask your mo


    m for the 300,000!” Elliott was very anxious, “Our old house has already been sold. Where can my mo


    m get the money?”


    “I don’t care. Anyway, my money can’t be used. You guys figure it out!” Crystal said with a cold face. “B


    esides, my family has a lot of rtives. For those whoe to J City to attend the wedding, the round–


    trip airfare and hotel costs are all on your family!”


    Elliott pleaded, “That’s reasonable. We can cover that, but 300,000 is too much.”Material ? of N?velDrama.Org.


    “Elliott!” Crystal mmed the table. “Do you think you can bully me just because I’m pregnant and don’t


    want to give me money?” “No!” Elliott quickly exined. “You know, when we bought the house, my m


    om put out all her money, almost leaving nothing for Emily. Where can she get that much money?”


    Crystalughed, “Your uncle’s family is rich, right? Let your mom go borrow it!”


    Elliott was troubled, “My uncle’s family looks down on us. We don’t have much contact with them usuall


    y. They definitely won’t lend us the money!”


    “That’s your family’s problem!” Crystal turned her head away, not caring at all.


    Elliott was very worried, feeling that Crystal had changed a lot. She used to be gentle and considerate,


    understanding when they were dating, but why did she be like this after getting pregnant?


    He might even lose his job, where could he get 300,000?


    In the evening, Emily worked two extra hours and was preparing to leave when she received a call from


    Charlie, “Where are you?”


    Emily immediately replied, “In thepany!”


    Charlie said, “Wait there for a while. I’ll pick you up. There’s something I need to tell you.”


    Emily was a bit nervous and asked, “Is it about my brother?”


    “Yeah, we’ll talk when I see you.”


    Charlie’s tone was gentle as he hung up the phone.


    Emily was a little worried, packed up her things and


    went downstairs, waiting outside the building. In less than ten minutes, Charlie arrived.


    It was already dark outside, and the ck Rolls–Royce stopped


    in front of her. Charlie sat in the driver’s seat and smiled, “Get in!” Emily opened the car door, sat in th


    e passenger seat, and immediately asked, “Has the resulte out?”


    “Yes!” Charlie handed Emily a file bag, “Take a look yourself!”
