Bride to Be, Not Me

Chapter 161

"The money will go through for sure. Go ahead and place the order first. It'll arrive by tonight or at the latest, tomorrow," Janice said.

"If it still hasn't arrived by then, call the bank and push them."

Janice's expression remained cold. "Alright."

"By the way..." Simon hesitated for a moment before continuing. "Janice, now that all our misunderstandings are cleared up and since you clearly want to get back together with me, I've also decided to forgive your past recklessness. We can go back to the way things were, back to being a loving family. What do you think?"

Janice took a sip of coffee. "What are you trying to say?"

"Janice, you and I are on the same side. Edward is only interested in you for your looks. Working for him will get you nothing in the end. You should trust me instead. You shouldn't be helping him compete in the international competition."

Simon then shifted his tone and laughed. "Why don't you just hand over that Jasmine Stitch Crochet piece? I have a way to get it into an international championship coming up soon."

On the other end of the line, there was only silence.

Simon grew anxious and blurted out, "If you agree to give me that crochet piece, I'll marry you on the spot and make you the distinguished Mrs. Fitzgerald. What do you say? Janice, just because you got lucky once doesn't mean you should get cocky. I'm only looking out for your hard work, so you should appreciate this rare opportunity I'm giving you. Isn't that right?"

Even at this point, he still thought he was superior.

Suppressing the disgust rising in her throat, Janice refused, "That's impossible. The competition materials have already been submitted, and withdrawals are considered forfeits."

"You..."

Just as Simon was about to explode, his phone rang. It was a call from the Solterra materials supplier. Without hesitation, he hung up on Janice.
