Chapter 167 He Is Truly Humble

Sebastian was in a meeting when he got a message from Tyler, feeling pretty pleased with himself.

"Finally, someone's spending my hard-earned money. With a wife who loves shopping, I guess I need to work even harder." He smiled, but by the end of the meeting, he hadn't received any transaction alerts. He'd given Joey a no-limit black card linked to his phone.

"Is Joey not spending my money?" he wondered and immediately called her.

No answer. So, he called Tyler.

Tyler picked up, and Sebastian heard loud screams in the background. "Are you with Joey? Why isn't she answering?"

Tyler laughed. "She's busy watching a handsome guy sing with my wife."

He turned the camera to show Joey waving a glow stick in the crowd.

Sebastian gritted his teeth. "Give her the phone."

Tyler, teasing, said, "Come on, she's having fun. Look at me, making my wife happy, taking care of the kid, and playing bodyguard. You should be more generous."

"Shut up! I just left, and she's already out having fun. Wait till I get back!"

Tyler, expecting drama, called Joey over and handed her the phone.

But as soon as Sebastian saw Joey, his tone softened. "Joey, having fun?"

Tyler thought, 'Weren't you going to scold her? Why are you smiling like that?'

Joey smiled. "Yeah, I bought a lot earlier, and now I'm watching a show with Maya. What's up?"

"I just wondered why you didn't use my card. Are you mad at me and don't want to spend my money?" Sebastian sounded almost pitiful.

Tyler laughed to himself, thinking, 'How much does this guy love Joey? He calls just to ask why she isn't spending his money. He's really whipped.'

Seeing Sebastian's sad look, Joey smiled. "Buying you a gift with your money wouldn't be sincere."

Sebastian's eyes lit up. "You miss me that much? Thinking of buying me a gift right after we part? I'll make it up to you when I get back, okay?"

His tone made Joey blush. "Alright, I'll talk to you tonight. I'm watching the show now."

Isabella, standing nearby, saw the whole thing and bit her lip in anger until she tasted blood.

As it got late, Tyler left with the kid. Maya and Joey had a blast, listening to the singer and hitting the dance floor.

While resting on the sofa, a rich lady approached. "Mrs. Green, we need one more for a card game. Want to join?"

Maya saw the lady, who often mingled with the Green Family. Maya was about to decline when Joey said, "You go ahead, I'll chat with Sebastian." "Alright, find me after your call."
