Chapter 3287 Whose Family Is She Visiting?

Jean narrowed his eyes. "What are you getting at?"

*That insurance policy you got for your mom. You can figure out a way to get the company to pay out. At least that'll help get us through this rough patch, right?" Marie thought she was giving him a brilliant suggestion. *You must've lost your mind!" Jean exploded in anger. "How dare you even think about targeting my mom?!" To commit insurance fraud, Anna would need to get hurt. If there was no injury, there would be no payout. Even though Jean had fallen on hard times, he would never harm his mother. After all, Anna's pension was barely enough to get by, and it was the only thing keeping them afloat.

If he wanted the wealth and success he once had, he would have to ask Percy for money.

Marie looked hurt. "I'm just trying to help you. We've got no money left. Don't you want to start a business again and be the boss?"

Jean stayed silent. Of course, he wanted that!

As the thought ran through his mind, he cursed under his breath, "Screw it, I'll go to Percy's place tomorrow and ask for some money!"

Seeing him finally come to this conclusion, Marie nodded in satisfaction.

After all, she had been the one to push him into causing a scene at the wedding.

Originally, neither Anna nor Jean had planned to stir up trouble. They had not even intended to go.

If it had not been for her persuasion, they would still be sitting around doing nothing.

"What's that burning smell?" Jean suddenly asked.

"Oh no!" Marie yelped and ran to the kitchen. She had not noticed that the water had dried up in the pot, and now, the food was burnt and stuck to the bottom.

Jean followed her into the kitchen and saw the mess. He scolded her, "You can't even cook a meal right!"

"I was just too caught up in talking with you," Marie tried to play it off by using a bit of a flirty tone to soften the mood.
