True Love Waits

Chapter 1376 One Hundred Dollar Check

The man's breath felt fresh and clear against her skin. Erica didn't need to look back to know who the man holding her from behind was.

Before she could turn around to validate her guess, however, the people around them began to greet him. "Hello, Mr. Huo!"

"Hello, Mr. Huo, Miss Xia!"

At this moment, she understood that both Matthew and Noreen were behind her.

Erica smiled. Her husband had barely left her for three minutes and was already back so soon. Why was that? 'It seems he still cares for me,' she thought, giggling. She then greeted Chantel with a wink and turned around to look up at the man holding her. He didn't look much friendly.

"Honey, have you brought the checkbook?" Erica asked.

"Yes. Why?" Matthew looked away as he spoke lightly.

Erica stretched out her hand and demanded, "Write me a hundred dollar check."

'A hundred dollar check? What is she planning?'

Even though he had no idea what she was going to do with it, he still took out the checkbook with no hesitation and wrote the number before handing the check to Erica.

A second later, Erica waved the check in front of Noreen and said, "Thank you for accompanying my husband while I wasn't here. This your tip. I know this isn't much money, and I apologize beforehand. But as you all know, my husband and I have four sons to raise. Our family has got to save every little penny we can now. But please, take it!"

The tip of one hundred dollars was a straight insult to the famous actress, Noreen Xia.

However, the mention of Erica's four sons was what felt like the real slap in her face.

Noreen didn't make a move to take the check. But regardless of the actress's livid face, Erica folded the check in two before she stuck it into her dress.
