Chapter 140 Like a Lamb to the ughter
There was a strange atmosphere in the car.
Abbot went scarlet with embarrassment and hastened to exin, "She''s just my admirer."
Faye nodded withoutment, while Colin gave Abbot a wry look.
After transferring five thousand dors to the girl, Abbot put his cellphone in his pocket and turned to
Colin and Faye. "Believe me, she''s really my admirer and a college girl. I think she''s a very innocent
girl. You know, she hasn''t seen me but admires me very much."
Colin said with a smile, "Owing to your money?"
Abbot cast an angry nce at Colin. "How can you believe so badly of her? She didn''t even know I''m
rich when she friended me."
Colinughed. "Then why was she asking you to pay for the bag?"
"She was not asking me to pay! She was asking me whether the bag of five thousand dors is too
expensive. How can a college girl have so much money? So I offered her the money."
Colin gave Abbot a sympathetic look.
Abbot waited but both Colin and Faye kept silent, then he continued to exin, "You''ve thought too
much of it. The college girl added my Line ount coincidentally. She wanted to befriend her
roommate but entered the wrong number."
Colin gave a quietugh. "What a coincidence."
Abbot looked sidelong at Colin. "How can you always think ill of others? Can''t you believe there are
pure-minded people in this world?"

"Yes, of course. You''re a very pure-minded man I''ve ever seen." Colin put on a mocking smile.
Abbot was speechless with anger.
He turned to look at Carlotta. "Carlotta, do you believe there are pure-minded people in this world?"
Carlotta seemed to be puzzled by his question, looking up at him and saying, "I...I do."
Hearing that, Abbot said to Colin teasingly, "As the old saying goes, the older, the wiser. Faye''s aunt
has a pair of sharp eyes, unlike some people."
Colin replied with a grin. "Okay, sorry for my shallow mind."
Abbot a smile of triumph and then sent a message to the college girl on his cellphone. "It''s not
expensive. Just take the money and go to buy it."
The girl replied instantly, "But we haven''t met. I can''t take your money."
To Abbot, the sum of money was quite immaterial. He replied, "You know, I''ll be mad if you don''t take
it."
"Aww, I''ll take it. Please don''t be mad. Or I''ll be very sorry."
ttered by her attentions, Abbot thought to himself, "What a kind girl she is. She took the money just
because she doesn''t want me to be mad."
When Abbot was texting on his cellphone, Colin leaned his head toward Faye, as if he would say
something.
As Faye came closer to him, he put his arm around her waist and asked with an amused look on his
face. "Is that Reba who chats with Abbot?"
"I don''t know," Faye said.
Colin grinned. "No wonder she invited us to dinner. It turns out Abbot will pay for it."
Afraid of being teased by him, Faye held back her smile, keeping a straight face and saying, "He''s like
amb to the ughter."
"A stupidmb." Colin continued after a pause, as if struck by a sudden idea, "Hank and me, who do
you trust more?" He sniffed her fragrant hair.
