Chapter 2524
Even though he harbored a great deal of dissatisfaction, Hunter never dared to deceive his wife ever since that incident.
Luckily, his children were rather understanding and would secretly give him some money to spend, so he could live relatively comfortably.
His children's filial piety was something that Belinda did not interfere with.
Of course, if he dared to flirt behind her back, Belinda would not be lenient with him.
Belinda had warned him before that if he had the guts to have affairs, she would ruin him.
Hunter believed that his wife could put her words into action.
For decades, no matter how many attractive women tried to get close to him, he dared not make a single move.
"It's not a matter of having money or not, it's a matter of who's right and who's wrong," Belinda said seriously.
Celine ceased her complaints.
After a while, she continued. "Mom, even if I was at fault, Caroline shouldn't freeze my bank account. Who gave her the right? She hasn't become the head of the family yet, but she's treating me like this. When she truly becomes the head of the Fisher family, Mom, will I still have a way to survive?"
With teary eyes, Celine added, "Mom, I've grown up by your side since birth, and I can feel your love for me. I've always considered myself a member of the Fisher family. I had no knowledge of the wrongdoings of my biological father, and I am innocent.
"You've told me before that I will always be your child. But you went on a business trip for just half a month, and Caroline already came after me, freezing my bank account. If, in the future, Caroline takes charge of the family, how am I supposed to live?"
"Don't you already have assets in your name? Do you really need that pocket money?" Belinda uttered casually.
In reality, Celine stopped relying on her allowance anymore. A daily spending limit of five grand hardly met her needs. Instead of drawing from her allowance, she relied on a credit card provided by Belinda, granting her the freedom to spend as she pleased.
"I don't even have that many assets under my name! All I have are a few houses, a few cars, and a couple of shop lots. I don't even have nine digits in my savings."
With her savings just over ten million, it was hardly enough for someone who was used to spending money like they grew on trees. Such an amount could not sustain her lavish lifestyle.
She found it extremely difficult to sell off her luxury items and selling them at the moment was simply not an option. She had to patiently await Caroline's ascension to the matriarchal position. It was only when her life were to take a challenging turn that she would consider selling her possessions for some cash.
In addition to indulging in luxury purchases, Celine also considered investing as a means to secure her future.
In the past, as the heiress of the Fisher family, she needed not to worry about investing in private ventures. She only bought a few houses and commercial properties.
It seemed like fate was toying with her. Now that she wanted to invest, she did not have the financial means to do so.
"Was your personal bank card frozen by Caroline too?"
"That's my personal bank card, she doesn't have the right to freeze it. She froze the card for my allowance and the credit card you gave me."
Belinda responded after a nod, "Since your personal bank card isn't frozen, you should use the money in it."
