Hudson was practically steaming with rage.

She looked over at Flora, who was basking in the attention of Shawn, Darcy, and the others, then back at Hudson's retreating figure. Biting her lip, she decided to chase after him.

"Flora, is there really two hundred million in that card? You're insanely rich!" Darcy and the others were still reeling from the shock. Two hundred million was an amount they couldn't even fathom in their wildest dreams.

"Flora, here's your card back," Dr. Ray said, handing it to her. Showing off to Hudson had felt pretty good, but as a teacher, he couldn't keep Flora's money. Whether the card held two hundred million or not, he just couldn't accept it.
