Chapter 41: We Girls Must Protect Ourselves

Velma's eyes nearly popped out of her head in shock! Holy cow!

Could money really solve the problem with them?

Why didn't she think of using this method before?

Three hundred thousand!

She had that much!

But this Miss Reed was truly impressive; she could have run away but instead, she turned back to help her out of trouble. Velma was so moved!

Tears of gratitude were about to stream down her face.

Amidst her astonishment, she heard Tina pointing at her and saying, "Okay! Three hundred thousand, she'll pay you!" Velma, "..."

So much for being touched!

"Her?" Chopard looked at Velma with disdain, "Does she have that much money?"

He didn't believe it!

And no wonder he didn't!

Who would, given Velma's usual unkempt getup, dressed in drab clothes, with red hair one day, yellow the next?

Like now, the clothes she was wearing were not even as valuable as those worn by the girl next to her.

Although Tina didn't seem wealthy either, at least she had the confidence to speak of two hundred thousand dollars straight out.

Unlike Velma!

If she had money, she would have used it to settle things long ago, why go through all this trouble?

Velma in her plain attire, "..."

She, the esteemed daughter of the Lehman family, was being looked down upon!

Damn it!

With this in mind, Velma stood tall and said with her head held high, "Look down on who? Give me the account number, three hundred thousand, I'll transfer it right away!" Chopard skeptically gave her the account number.

Velma handled her phone deftly and transferred three hundred thousand quickly.
