Chapter 157 Trouble

“Mom, the watches weren’t bought by me!” Josephine was infuriated by Margaret. Jonathan alone is trouble enough, and now, Margaret is just making things worse.

“Who bought them? Jonathan?” Margaret glanced at Jonathan who was sitting on the sofa. “So what if he did? Can you not give them to me just because of that?”

“Mom, do you know how much the watches cost?” Josephine almost stomped her feet in anger when she saw how the greedy Margaret desperately held onto the watch.

“How much?” Margaret asked curiously.

“Thirty-six million!” Glaring fiercely at her, Josephine added, “The watch you are wearing alone costs eighteen million.”

“What?”

Margaret’s felt her knees buckle the moment she heard the price.

Eighteen million for a lousy watch? Together, both of them cost thirty-six million? What an idiot for spending thirty-six million just on two watches. Wait, something’s not right. Since when did Jonathan have so much money?

When it suddenly hit her, Margaret stared at Jonathan and questioned, “Jonathan, where did you find so much money?”

“I borrowed it,” Jonathan calmly replied.

“Who did you borrow it from?” Margaret gave Jonathan a doubtful look. Given how he usually behaves, how did he manage to get it? I don’t think he is even capable of borrowing three thousand six hundred.

“Zachary,” Jonathan answered. “When I left the King of War residence, Zachary gave me a credit card with no spending limit. I used the same card to buy the car too.”

Jonathan parroted the same excuse from yesterday.

“No spending limit?” Margaret’s eyes lit up when she heard it. She didn’t care how much Jonathan borrowed. All she was concerned about was whether the card truly had no spending limit.

“Jonathan, does your card really have no spending limit?” Margaret stared intently at Jonathan as if she was about to swallow him.

“That’s right!”
