Chapter 257 Name a Price
“Who exactly are you?” Winnie asked.
Susan smiled and walked directly to the sofa to sit down. She crossed her legs and raised her chin to look at Winnie arrogantly. “You don‘t need to know who I am. I came here today to see what kind of
woman can charm him.
“But you look humble and normal!” Susan looked Winnie up and down, not hiding her dislike for her at all
Winnie was speechless.
She didn‘t know what had happened.
“To be honest, I‘ve seen many women like you who want to marry into a wealthy family to change their fates. That makes sense, but they always overestimate themselves. Do you really think that you will have your life changed when you marry him? A woman like you will suffer if you marry into the Palmer family. Don‘t dream again!” Susan mocked.
She thought that Winnie, who was born into a poor and humble family, would be scared off. She would destroy Winnie‘s dream of marrying into the Palmer family and then lure her. It should not be difficult to drive Winnie away.
However, Susan was still unaware that she had found the wrong person.
The photo did show that Simon was with another woman, but there were bodyguards with them, and the photographer was a bit afraid, so the detective didn‘t dare to take another one.
Silvia was also there, but the detective happened to take a photo of her back and take the profiles of Simon and Winnie. Therefore, Susan didn‘t notice Silvia and mistakenly thought that the woman with Simon was Winnie.
The people involved weren‘t aware of it, and the rumors were just spread out.
It was just a blurred photo, and none of the people involved cleared the rumor. The netizens just gossiped about it. Only Susan took this matter seriously and investigated it.
Susan got the wrong news from the beginning.
But Winnie knew that Susan came to the wrong person.
The woman Susan was targeting was the woman who was going to marry Simon, and she should be looking for Silvia.
However, Susan found Winnie.
Winnie didn’t know why Susan found her, but since Susan had come, Winnie didn‘t mean to explain. She would just take it as helping Silvia to teach Susan a lesson. By the way, Winnie wasn‘t
in a good mood, so she had the chance to vent her anger.
As she thought of this, Winnie did not chase Susan away. Instead, she smiled indifferently and said, “That‘s right. I just wanted to marry into a rich family. And I succeeded. What can you do to me?”
“You!” Susan did not expect Winnie to say that. She had originally thought that Winnie would be ashamed or scared to tremble. However, Winnie was bold and answered back.
Looking at her smug face, Susan took a few deep breaths and decided not to argue with this kind of woman. She pinched her bag and looked at her proudly. “Let‘s get straight to the point. Aren‘t you with him just for money? How much do you want? Name a price!”
Winnie almost laughed.
She had seen this kind of plot on TV many times, but she did not expect to see it in reality. And it just
happened to her. Winnie felt so ridiculous.
However, the one who would drive the man‘s lover away would always be his mother. Susan seemed to cross the line.
“Name a price…” Winnie pondered. Then she chuckled, “I have to think about it.”
She dawdled the time for a while. Seeing that Susan was already getting impatient, Winne said, “I haven‘t experienced something like this before. Why don‘t you name a price for me?”
Susan narrowed her eyes and looked at her with contempt.
Susan thought, she is just a vain woman. I don‘t know why Simon would fall for such a woman. He has seen all kinds of beautiful women. If he was with a woman from a noble family, I might be
convinced
But I don‘t want to lose to a humble girl.
“750 thousand dollars!” Susan pursed her lips and named the price.
She felt that the price was enough.
Winne just lived in a shabby house with aged and broken wires. She had worked for so many years
but was still an assistant. How much money could she have seen? To be honest, 750 thousand dollars was enough for Winnie to spend for the rest of her life. She should be grateful for that.
Susan just wanted to warn Winnie not to covet what she couldn‘t get.
“750 thousand dollars?” Winnie said in surprise. Her greedy look made Susan look down on her,
but that was what the latter wanted to see.
In the beginning, Susan was a bit nervous. After all, she didn‘t know what kind of person Winnie was. But now she knew that she had overestimated Winne.
“That‘s a lot.” Winnie sighed and looked at Susan again, asking, “But who are you, and why should I believe that you will really give me so much money? Also, what does it have to do with you whether I am with him or not?”
“It‘s just 750 thousand dollars. I wouldn‘t lie to a nobody like you.” After a pause, Susan continued, “However, this amount of money is enough for you to do many things. Take the money and leave him. No, leave LA and never come back, and don‘t appear in front of him again!”
As she spoke, Susan took out the check from her bag and was about to write a number on it.
Looking at her impatient look, Winnie knew that Susan must be one of Simon‘s admirers. Moreover, she should also be born into a wealthy family. Otherwise, she would not be able to sign the check without hesitation.
“But…” Winnie drawled.
She cast a sidelong glance at Susan and didn‘t finish her words.
“But what?” Susan raised her head and looked at Winnie nervously.
“However, he is the president of Warin and the head of the Palmer family. He told me that he is very rich. Was he only worth 750 thousand dollars? I have to call him to ask if he was bragging. He might not be as rich as he said!”
As she spoke, Winnie pretended to take out her phone, as if she really wanted to call Simon.
“Wait!” Susan hurriedly stopped her, afraid that Winnie would really call Simon. She could not let Simon know about this matter, at least not now. Otherwise, she couldn‘t drive Winnie away.
“How much do you want?” Susan asked patiently.
