Chapter 525: The Cruise Banquet

Megan had wanted to speak up, but seeing the old lady's grim expression, she remained silent. Yet, she strongly disagreed. This was about 800 billion dollars, not just 8000; though she wished the old lady's hand could be healed to better the Lyon family, spending so much money on it seemed imprudent. Wouldn't it be better to split the money between their families?

"What do we do now, Mom?" Warren, regaining his composure, turned to Grandma Lyon. If it had been a few hundred or even a few million dollars, he would have agreed without hesitation. But 800 billion dollars was too much, and he was reluctant to spend such an amount on the old lady's hand. If the treatment failed, wouldn't it all be wasted? Moreover, treating her was meant to benefit the Lyon family, not drag them down because of a hand.

Grandma Lyon hesitated too. She really didn't know what to do. Just then, Sonia rushed in. As soon as she entered, she went to examine Grandma Lyon's hand and cursed, "That damn Tina, how dare she do this to you? It's despicable." She had been out handling some business yesterday and wasn't at the Lyon family's. She had received a call from Grandma Lyon this morning explaining the situation and had hurried over without a second thought.

"You've arrived just in time; there's something I can't decide on, and I need your advice," Grandma Lyon said, giving Sonia a meaningful look.

Sonia paused, then heard Grandma Lyon continue, "Spectre can fix my hand and treat my back, but he's asking for 800 billion dollars. I don't know whether to go ahead with it."

Sonia was shocked. So much money for a treatment? Of course, she couldn't agree! Yet, seeing the look in the old lady's eyes, she hesitated. The old lady clearly wanted to be healed, but her sons would surely disagree, and she couldn't express this openly, so she had Sonia speak for her. But Sonia didn't want to agree either.

After a long pause, Sonia finally said, "Heal! No matter the cost, go ahead and heal!" With the old lady around, her future would be more secure. If something happened to the old lady, her brothers-in-law would surely neglect her. It was better to support the old lady now.

"Are you out of your mind?" Leah was the first to object. "All that money, and you just want to give it away? Do you think money grows on trees? I disagree!" Megan also spoke out, "I support treating mom, but that's too much money."

old lady's grandchildren joined in opposition. Except for Warren and Oliver, who remained silent, the rest argued heatedly,
