Chapter 218

Felicia indeed needed money. All her earnings from treating patients had been poured into the development project in Alverton, leaving her penniless. Although Dexter had given her a bank card with a decent sum inside, she refused to touch a single cent of it.

But no matter her meticulous planning had already solved her financial dilemma. She had orchestrated a scheme against Shawn, turning his 50 million into gambling debts. Lance repossessed his house, cars, and all his luxury possessions. Now, Felicia sold all those items back to Lance for 20% below market value, pocketing two million dollars in the process.
