Chapter 31
“They gave you five million the first time and one million the second. They even send it to our house?” Kevin looked confused.
Jacob was gently swirling his red wine. Janelle’s face was flushing. She poked Jacob’s arm and said softly, “Brother, our uncle is
indeed rich, or does he have bad intentions towards our family?”
Janelle was slightly drunk, so Jacob reached out and took over her wine glass. “Drink less if you can’t drink.”
Kevin took a deep breath and looked curiously at Suzie. “Suzie, I asked them to send you twenty thousand, how come it turned
out six million when it was delivered to you!?”
What a joke!
If I had six million, I will not need to curry favor with those people in the Paramount Chamber of Commerce any more. I’ll just buy
an entire floor of real estate before the house prices go up, and collect the rent in the future!
“You only gave me twenty thousand?!” Suzie was dumbfounded.
After a while, she came back to her senses. She waved and said, “No! So, Kevin, you only gave me twenty thousand. No! Then
who gave me the six million?”
I’ll say it’s me if you’re willing to give me the money. Kevin’s mouth slightly tilted. He almost spilled out his secret thoughts.
“Is it really not from you?” Franklin was curious, but a little happy.
Kevin gritted his teeth and shook his head. “It really isn’t from me!” Both Suzie and Franklin were confused. They unanimously
asked, “Then who sent the money?”
Jacob frowned and thought if he should stand up and tell them.
At once, Kevin came to life and said, “Someone gave you six million, but you actually don’t know who he is!”
Six million! Kevin was speechless, and at the same time jealous of them. How come I’ve never been so lucky?
Suzie put down her red wine. She then pressed her stomach and said, “It’s alright. Let’s not care about the identity of the sender.
Let’s sit down and eat first!”
However, Suzie felt unpleasant as she saw all the food that was initially prepared to thank her cousin, Kevin.
“Wait!” Kevin just happened to remember his money. “So, no one received the twenty thousand I sent here?”
“Nope,” Franklin replied with a relaxed expression.
“Damn it. How dare they take my money!” Kevin muttered fiercely.
He sighed and put down his red wine glass. “Suzie, I have to go. I have things to deal with at the Chamber of Commerce. Thank
you very much for your hospitality today.”
Suzie stretched out her hand. She was trying to press him to stay. “Hey, Kevin...”
Before Suzie could speak, Franklin raised his voice and said, “I’ll send you off.”
On the side, Janelle, who was a little drunk, shouted, “Uncle, why are you leaving? You haven’t finished your wine yet! This wine
tastes great! No wonder it cost more than ten thousand!”
Jacob was embarrassed by his sister’s behavior. He shook his head and sighed, “She can’t drink. Keep an eye on her in the
future.”
When Franklin finally reached home, Suzie stood up and waved. “I’m full. Enjoy your meal.”
“How are you full? You haven’t eaten anything yet!” Franklin nagged, “I’ll cook some porridge for you later.”
Franklin was happy, so Jacob took the opportunity to talk to his dad about the money.
