Chapter 226

Patricia and the kids returned home and they took afternoon naps right after lunch because of the long sleepless night they had yesterday.

At around 3.00PM, Patricia was suddenly awakened by the ping sound from the notification on her phone. The money had been transferred into her bank account.

She reached out to grab her phone and take a look. She was merely expecting to see an incoming message, but she was instantly surprised by the notification that her money had been transferred into her account.

Startled, she immediately jolted upright. "Ah!"

Her loud voice reverberated throughout the house. It was a transaction success notification, so it meant that she did not have to approve the transaction even.

As soon as her voice rang out, Josephine and the three kids rushed into her bedroom.

"Mommy, what's wrong?"

Josephine wore an anxious look on her face. "Tricia, what happened?"

All of a sudden, Patricia leaped out of bed and hugged Josephine before embracing her three kids.

Sylvie's eyes flickered as she wanted to leap up too, but Scott and Stellan held her hands firmly.

"Sylvie, you've got a wound."

As such, she could only stare as Patricia jumped up in excitement in front of them. The three of them were in shock and they wondered what had happened to trigger such happiness. After all, Patricia was behaving like an excited child.

At that moment, she finally noticed the balance on her account and the total amount was exactly one million and a hundred thousand. She blinked her large eyes as she considered the situation.

"Gosh, the police have helped us get the money back, but they've also given us the balance of five hundred thousand, which was supposed to be a loan. This is so strange. Should I notify them and return the five hundred thousand?"

Josephine smiled and replied, "Tricia, you're too nice! I'm sure that they wouldn't have made such a mistake."

The incident from last night had resulted in Sylvie getting injured. With Isaac dealing with the matter, surely those men would not dare to come after them for money anymore. Being the intelligent one, Josephine could clearly tell what was going on.

However, Patricia felt bad about taking advantage of someone, so she naturally felt the need to return the money. Though she needed the money badly, she would never take something that did not belong to her. Following that, she sat back onto the bed and looked at her three kids.

"Did I wake you guys up? I'm so sorry about that! You should continue your nap if you're still tired."

Sylvie sat down next to Patricia and leaned on her. "Tricia, I was too foolish last night and I tripped. I'm sorry for startling you."

Patricia responded by smiling before stroking Sylvie's tiny face. "I should be the one to apologize. I'm the one who failed to take good care of you and put you in danger. I won't allow this to happen ever again."

She vowed to never apply for a loan with the loansharks anymore. She was determined to work hard and give the three kids a comfortable life.

Looking at them, Scott and Stellan stood across from the two girls with smiles on their faces. They were not too clear about how a girl's mind worked, but they enjoyed seeing their happy countenances.
