What Separates Me and You

Chapter 78 You Deserve to Be Broke

Sam raised an eyebrow. He had an idea, so he didn’t correct Patrick. He reached his hand out

and shook Patrick’s hand.

“Hello, can we go in and talk?”

“Sure, of course, welcome.” Patrick initially wanted to head out, but when he saw them, he changed his mind.

Josephine didn’t know what Sam was trying to do, but she felt he was trustworthy and followed along.

Patrick enthusiastically invited them in, serving them water and fruit.

When Sam entered, he scanned the surroundings. The sofa was a little messy, with a rag-like blanket on it. It felt out of place in such a luxurious home. He picked up the blanket and did not need to smell hard to sense an old-person smell coming from the blanket.

“Oh, Mr. Alvarez, that’s dirty. Let me take it somewhere else.” Patrick took the blanket and ran to the toilet, dumping it into the laundry basket.

Sam took a tour around the house. He noticed a set of cutleries and a bowl on top of the wine cabinet next to the dining room.

Someone was cooking in the kitchen, but the door was closed, so he could not see who it was. When Patrick returned, Sam asked him, “Is your wife cooking in the kitchen?”

Patrick’s expression changed a little. His wife had returned to her parents’ home, so naturally, it was his mother cooking for him.

He chuckled drily and said, “It’s my mom. You know how old people are, they like to find things to do at home. They can’t sit still.”

Sam nodded and returned to the sofa. “Let’s get down to business.”

Patrick’s eyes brightened. He rubbed his palms together. “Has Mrs. Alvarez told you about it already?”

Sam nodded. “Hmm, she has told me everything, so you don’t have to put on an act anymore. Just get to the point.”

Patrick snickered. It seemed that his old mother still had some importance in the Alvarez family that even their heir came on his own. He had to milk their money’s worth. He suddenly felt as if five million dollars was too little.

“Sure, I won’t beat around the bush. Five million dollars. Give me five million dollars, and I’ll let you have my mom. If not, we don’t have a deal!”
