Chapter 29: A Gentleman Makes Money in a Right Way
Eddy was also stunned that he felt numb.
Where did Richard get so much money?
Catherine looked up at Richard, and suddenly tears streamed down her cheeks, "Where did you get so much money? You didn't do something illegal, did you?" Jane sneered with a contemptuous expression on her face, "How could a loser like him have money? Earning 30 million in five years? Who could believe that?" "It's faked money, is it? You like acting so much. This cash, is it the prop you bought?!"
Richard raised his eyebrows, "I borrowed the money from a rich friend."
"Bah!"
Jane pounded the table and stood up in anger, then grabbed a stack of money and dropped it to the ground!
She glowered at Richard and scolded him like a shrew, "Richard, how could a loser like you have rich friends?"
"Please, I beg you, don't hurt us again! We are upright people. We will never take your illegal money!"
"Richard, if you still have a clear conscience, I beg you to leave us alone. Since you have returned, we never live a peaceful day!"
"Let alone the Miller family and the Walker family, you even offended Catherine's classmate; and now, you are involved in dirty business!"
"Even if the money is real, then I suppose it's either stolen or robbed. Do you seriously want to pay us back with this?"
"Let me tell you, even if we were starved to death, we wouldn't take a penny from your suspicious money!!"
She stared at Richard angrily, her eyes showing mixed emotions of hatred, disdain, sadness and despair.
She looked like a crazy woman during her cursing. Then she pushed the money away, not wanting it at all.
Hearing her words, Catherine and Eddy also felt bleak and disappointed.
Richard, who was a bragger and good at nothing, now even got involved in the dirty business?
That was 30 million!
It would even take a long time to burn the cash!
If it was all dirty money, wouldn't Richard have to spend the rest of his life in prision?
Catherine looked depressed, and she felt hopeless. She felt herself pitiful for marrying such a husband.
However, she did not want Richard sent to jail--he had just returned home.
Holding back her grievance and sadness, she exhorted, "Richard, you send back this money immediately. I will find a way to get the money. You don't need to worry about it."
Looking at Richard with an expression of righteous indignation, Eddy said, "A gentleman makes money in a right way. Richard, we will not take the illegal money!"
Maria also came forward; grasping her father's hand, she said in a sweet voice, "Daddy, don't do bad things. You should be the hero who fights the bad guys! If not, Maria will not talk to you again." Jane sneered with disgust, "Take away your stinking money immediately. Don't hurt us again!"
