When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him (Cecilia and Nathaniel)

Chapter 243 Are You Short On Money

Zachary fell silent.

Before Zachary could respond, Jonathan approached him, extending a piece of paper that read: If you intend to raise me, I’ll need a daily allowance of one billion.

A cold smirk tugged at Zachary’s mouth.

This child wasn’t even his, yet he had the audacity to ask for money–and a billion, no less? The kid probably hadn’t even seen a thousand before.

Zachary said to Cecilia on the other end of the phone. “I’ll look into it. If the child isn’t mine, I’ll return him to Vivian and apologize.”

After hanging up the phone, Zachary turned to Jonathan and said, “You certainly have quite an appetite. Can you really spend a billion a day?”

“Mister, you’re not broke, are you?”

A slight twitch tugged at the corner of Zachary’s mouth. Of course he had one billion.

“If I were to give it to you, what should you call me?”

Jonathan’s eyes curved in amusement. “I don’t deal with hypotheticals. Also, I’m hungry and need something to eat. If you don’t feed me, I’ll take this to court I’ll tell the judge that my father refuses to feed me.”

Zachary was at a loss for words.
