“At Donte’s house, the Dockland Community,
Joshua was cooking in the kitchen.
Because Marsh and Giselle had come early to cause trouble, their family had not eaten dinner yet.
As long as Joshua was at home, he would definitely cook.
Joshua did not care about that. Besides, he liked to cook…
In the living room, Donte’s family stared at each other.
Heidy stole a glance at the kitchen and lowered her voice. “How strange! Where did this bastard get 1 million dollars? Did he rob a bank?”
Donte rolled his eyes. “If he really robbed a bank, with the current technology, the police would have already come to arrest him! The money should be obtained by himself. You saw it this morning. He blocked the door at Maple Properties and earned more than 300 thousand dollars in one morning. It’s too scary! Maybe he still has some money left!”
Hearing this, Heidy rolled her eyes and asked Pamela, “Daughter, find a chance to ask him how much money he has left. You have to find a way to get it. I calculated that there is still a lot of money missing for your brother to marry a wife!”
Pamela was a little impatient. Can you stop talking to me about this? So annoying! No matter how rich
Joshua is, it is his money. What does it have to do with us?”
“You damn girl! Why are you so stupid? Your brother is related to you by blood. As his sister, you have the obligation to take care of him for a lifetime! So what if you ask Joshua for money?
“To put it bluntly, he has been relying on us for the past few years, and he owes us! If he goes too far, I will sue him in court and sue him!
Pamela was speechless and sighed.
She really hated her mother for this.
Seeing Pamela’s reluctant attitude, Heidy coldly snorted. “If you don’t want to do it, I will ask him for money. I don’t believe that he dares to refuse me!”
Soon, Joshua made food and served it to the table.
The family ate around the table.
In the past, Heidy would have scolded Joshua in a roundabout way and forbade him from sitting on the table.
However, today she picked up food for Joshua. “Joshua! I have something to ask you!”
Joshua was a little surprised.
She always thought that he was good for nothing.
This was the first time she was so cordial today!
There must be something wrong with her!
Joshua smiled and asked, “What is it?’
“It’s like this. Today, Pamela’s brother called me and said that he was in hospital because he has not been feeling well recently. He spent a lot of money! You know about our family’s situation, and I can’t afford much. I was just thinking about whether you have enough money to lend some to me.”
Joshua twitched the corner of his mouth and almost cursed.
When my sister was hospitalized after a car accident, you didn’t lend a single cent and even ruthlessly took the insurance payment.
Now your silly son is in the hospital, and you ask me to borrow you?
The point was that even a fool could tell that she was lying. She said that he was borrowing money, but she would never pay him back.
Joshua was rich now.
But he did not have the slightest thought of giving her money.
Of course, Joshua did not want to be too straightforward.
After all, he and Pamela still had a lot of things to settle, so they should not add fuel to the fire because of
Heidy’s matter!
Joshua forced a smile. “I don’t have a cent left. I’ve given them all to Marsh!”
“Not a cent?”
Heidy said with a face of disbelief, “You took out 1 million dollars. How can you not have money left?’
“It really is all gone! If you don’t believe me, look!”
Joshua stood up and took out all the pockets in his clothes.
He even showed Heidy the balance of his account. NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
Nothing!
“Really doesn’t have a cent…”
Heidy looked disappointed. She threw her fork and cursed, “I knew I couldn’t count on trash. Just looking at you makes me angry. I won’t eat anymore!”
She glared at Joshua and went back to the bedroom.
Donte sighed. “I don’t want to eat anymore, either!”
He followed Heidy back to the bedroom.
Joshua sneered in his heart.
They fell out with him easily.
Fortunately, the money left by his father was in a high-level account. Other than him, no one else could find that money.
Otherwise, he was afraid his mother-in-law would covet his money every second…
Only Joshua and Pamela were left at the table.
Pamela picked up the food in the bowl, looking listless.
‘Honey, what are you thinking about?”
Pamela glanced at Joshua, pouted, and snorted, “Men are all bad guys!”
Joshua had a bitter look.
“What’s wrong? I don’t think I did anything wrong, right? Is it because tonight’s food doesn’t fit your appetite? It shouldn’t be. They are all specially chosen for you.”
Seeing that Joshua was in a hurry to explain, Pamela said, “It has nothing to do with this! Let me ask you a question. You must promise to answer me honestly!”
“Alright!”
“Then how did you get the 1 million dollars?”
“I made it at the entrance of the company recently!”
Pamela stared at Joshua suspiciously. “I don’t believe it! Maple Properties really allow you to do this? This is discrediting the company! Tell me the truth, otherwise, don’t even think about letting me talk to you in the future!”
It was not easy to fool her!
Fortunately, Joshua was prepared and became serious. “Since this is the case, I won’t hide it from you. In fact, I am the new president of Maple Properties…”
Pamela widened her eyes!
Joshua added, “I’m his primary school classmate.”
“You said you are a primary school classmate of the new president of Maple Properties?’
Pamela was stunned. “I haven’t heard you mention it before!”
Joshua tried to explain, “Actually, I only found out about it recently. That day when I was working at the construction site, I happened to meet him at the construction site for an inspection. My elementary school classmate has a good relationship with me, so I was promoted to the head of the security department of
Maple Properties!
“So that’s how it is!”
Pamela nodded her head in realization.
No wonder Joshua dared to do whatever he wanted as the head of the security department. He had the support of his old classmate!
In other words, the reason why he was able to win the bidding was that Joshua asked his old classmate for help!
Thinking of this, Pamela’s pretty face could not help but turn slightly red.
Humph! This bastard is quite good at hiding!
She, who was in a slightly better mood, finally began to eat the food.
Joshua was sweating nervously.
Fortunately, his acting skills were good, though he almost got exposed.
He was eating.
Suddenly, Pamela raised her head and asked, “Does your classmate have time?”
“What?
“Let’s treat him to a meal and thank him!”
Joshua wanted to show that he did not know the cloning technique…
