Chapter 3

I felt as if struck by lightning.

"Then... let's do the surgery right away."

"Let's do the surgery, doctor! What are we waiting for? Hurry up!"

The doctor looked at me with a difficult expression.

"This surgery is very expensive, and the success rate isn't high."

"If you've made up your mind, go pay the fee first. The patient can hold on for a while."

"Money is not a problem, doctor. Please do the surgery quickly. Use the best of everything!"

I rummaged through my bag in a panic for my bank card.

"Money is not an issue. I'll go pay. Please arrange the surgery right away, doctor."

Suddenly, a scornful laugh came from behind me.

"Money is not a problem? Emelia, do you still think you're that rich young lady?"

I was shocked, and my body went rigid as I turned around. "What?"

Aya clicked her high - heels a few steps forward and jabbed her long fingertip into my chest. "I said, Wandon went bankrupt. Are you deaf, Emelia? Have you been a rich young lady for so long that you can't even understand simple words?"

"That's impossible..." I looked at Goden, who hadn't said a word since Aya showed up.

"Goden, is what she said true?"

Goden mumbled, "It's true.Your father went bankrupt, and all his assets have been frozen."

I still couldn't believe it and ran towards the payment counter.

I could only hear Aya's voice floating faintly from behind.

"Idiot. I don't believe you can swipe even a penny."

At the payment counter.

The aunt behind me urged me several times. "Young lady, if you're not going to pay, move aside. We're all in a hurry to save lives."

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I'll pay, I'll pay."

Tears streamed down my face. The makeup I had carefully put on for trying on the wedding dress was completely smeared.

But I didn't care.

I wiped my face with my sleeve casually and continued rummaging through my bag.

I found another card in my bag and handed it to the staff at the payment counter.

"Please check. Is there enough money in this one?"

Before this, I had tried three cards, and each one had prompted insufficient funds.

The staff at the payment counter had been a bit impatient at first, but seeing my tear - stained face, they didn't have the heart to rush me and took the card.

This card held my private savings from childhood to adulthood and was the only one in my name.

The other cards were all my dad's.

He had told me several times to get more cards, but I always refused, saying that having his was enough.

But I never expected that now, none of them would work.

Finally, this card went through.

Holding the receipt, I felt a bit more at ease.

I went back upstairs to my dad's ward again.

After the rescue, my dad was stable for the time being and was moved into the ICU, waiting for the family to make the next decision.

At the door of the ward, Goden and Aya were still standing there.

When Aya saw me come back, she rolled her eyes.

"Even though Wandon's assets are frozen, you can still pay. Rich people are really different from us. What's that saying? A crafty person has more than one hideout. Right, a crafty person has more than one hideout."

"Aya, you..." I looked at Aya in disbelief. "How could you become like this?"

"Like this? What do you mean? I've always been like this."

Aya put her hands in her pockets and looked at me sideways.

"Emelia, I'm sick and tired of your arrogant attitude all the time. Now that your dad is bankrupt, you're nothing."

"Why do you still act so high - and - mighty? Who are you trying to impress?"

"Goden?"

"Aya..." When Aya mentioned Goden, I remembered the purpose of this.

I had just been to the doctor's office and asked about the surgery cost. Although there was some money in this card, it was far from enough to cover my dad's surgery expenses.

I turned to look at Goden. "Goden, didn't dad give you a start - up fund before? Give it to me to pay for dad's surgery."

I never thought Goden would refuse. First, he was my fiancé, and second, this money was the business - start fund my dad gave him for our marriage. It originally belonged to my dad.

Both publicly and privately, he should hand it over.

However, as soon as I said this, Aya burst into laughter.

"Emelia, you're really stupid. You still don't get it."

"Do you think Goden will pay for this?"

"Even now, you still haven't understood the situation."

"You're so stupid."
