Chapter 140

Martha was dumbstruck! Her breath got stuck in her throat! One… hundred billion?! With a loud thud, Martha fell backward and landed on the ground.

Her whole body had begun trembling uncontrollably. Very soon, several people gathered around her as they looked and pointed. “Oh, is she having a seizure?” “Call the emergency number quickly!” “Hurry up and call for someone. This looks serious!” Not long after, the employees of the bank rushed over and helped lift Martha onto a seat by the side. They then performed acupressure on her and gave her some water. Nevertheless, Martha struggled to wake up as her hands trembled. Her eyes were dull when she mumbled, “Hundred… billion.” The onlookers were baffled and had no idea what the old woman was mumbling about. Was she delusional?

Philip and Wynn had rushed over to the scene. They had received a call from one of the bank staff who informed them of Martha’s location. “Mom, how do you feel? Are you alright? Do you want to go to the hospital?” Wynn trotted over and squatted next to Martha, her face full of anxiety. Martha was her biological mother after all. Needless to say, Wynn would be anxious if anything happened to her mother. Philip followed closely from behind, and an obvious frown could be seen on his face. He saw the bank card tightly being clutched by Martha. Additionally, the people around them were murmuring something related to the figure, a hundred billion. Although everyone else was at a loss, Philip knew exactly what had happened. His mother-in-law must have seen the amount in the bank card and fainted

exclaimed excitedly, “Philip, a hundred billion… one hundred billion!” There was one hundred billion in Philip’s card! Was it real? Martha could not believe it. Philip had always been a good-for-nothing. Wynn had not figured it out yet. She stared at Martha and Philip blankly as she asked, “What a hundred billion?” Philip shook his head and calmly replied, “I’m not sure either. Is mother…” Philip had not yet finished his sentence when Wynn understood the gist of it. Hence, Wynn pulled Martha up and asked, “Mom, what’s wrong with you? What a hundred billion?” Martha hummed and took Wynn’s hand in hers.
