Chapter 569

Casper picked up his phone to find a notification of a bank deposit, and he felt his mind go blank.

Another message from Jessica followed. "I've transferred the money. Can you check if you've received it?"

Casper replied instantly, "Got it."

Casper's emotions were in turmoil, but he decided to focus on the project for now. As for Jessica's money, he'd treat it as an investment in the project.

Jessica stared at her phone screen for a long time. After transferring such a large sum, all he said was, "Got it".
