After Trading My Life for Five Million, My Husband Made Eternal Vows with His Mistress
Chapter 4
"Thanks."
After about five minutes, my eyesight improved, and my sense of smell sharpened.
"Kenneth, this money... doesn't seem right?"
"Haha, Mr. Nelson, you're so meticulous! I added an extra 20,000 dollars to make it a round 400,000 dollars."
It was very noisy outside, so I pushed the door open and went out.
Then I saw Leila's father, Kevin, pour out the suitcase on the ground.
Inside was a whole box of white paper.
Kenneth exclaimed, "Wait a minute! I took the wrong box!"
He signaled to his mother, "Mom, go get the box of money from under my bed."
After a while, Maria dragged out another box.
"Mr. Nelson, don't worry, I made a mistake."
Kevin's expression relaxed slightly.
But when Kenneth opened the box, it was still filled with white paper.
"This can't be! Where's my money?"
Kenneth continued to flip through the boxes, and saw a whole box filled with white paper.
"Kenneth, it's no fun if you do this."
"Mr. Nelson, I swear I'm prepared!"
Leila's expression darkened.
"Kenneth, what's going on?"
"I... I don't know! I'll pay with my card!"
Kenneth pulled out his phone to transfer money. But after several attempts, it was still reminded of insufficient balance.
"Mr. Nelson, please let Leila and me get married first, and I'll give you the money in a few days."
"Do you think I'm a fool? This marriage is off!"
With that, Leila's parents turned to leave.
"Dad! Mom! Kenneth, do you really want to marry me?"
Leila rushed after them.
"Dad, Mom, can you give him another chance? He was on the news a few days ago when he won five million. You have to believe him."
Her pleas softened her parents' stance.
Kenneth searched from room to room until he reached my room.
He pushed me aside and rifled through the closet.
Several gold bars in the closet also turned into stone.
"Where are the gold bars?!" he demanded.
"What gold bars? I don't know," I replied innocently.
In frustration, Kenneth threw a stone at me, but luckily I was able to move nimbly.
Otherwise, these stones would have smashed my head.
Hearing the sound, people outside also squeezed in.
Leila glared at me. "Did you hide them?"
"It must be you!"
Kenneth also began to consider me, "Where's the money? You steal it."
"I haven't left the house; how could I have done that?" I defended myself.
Kenneth hesitated, realizing I hadn't gone out.
He resumed searching for the missing money.
I took my few belongings, preparing to leave when Jose stopped me.
"Are you leaving?" he asked.
I looked at him and said nothing.
He was just a child. And just when I was thinking about whether I should give him a chance, he suddenly shouted.
"Dad, Aunt Leila, come quickly! The thief is getting away!"
He clung to my suitcase, refusing to let go.
I couldn't help but sneer at his ingratitude.
"What's in your suitcase?" Kenneth asked.
"Just some clothes," I replied.
Leila laughed, "It must be gold bars!"
Hearing this, Kenneth immediately grabbed the suitcase to check.
