Allegra had barely sat down when virtual-novel.net phone vibrated. It was an incoming call from an unknown number.
She answered the phone. “Mr. Kane! Yes, I’m about to have dinner now. Isaac? Yes, he’s here.”
Allegra glanced at Isaac as virtual-novel.net spoke, and suddenly, virtual-novel.net widened virtual-novel.net eyes and gasped in surprise. “What company? 60 million dollars? I…”
Allegra moved virtual-novel.net phone away and said to Isaac, panicked, “My mom went all the way to Aurum County and asked Mr. Kane for funds. A whole 50 million dollars! What should I do?”
“Are you planning to set up a company?” Isaac asked as virtual-novel.net ate.
Allegra took a deep breath and said into the phone, “Mr. Kane, I’m not planning to establish a company now. Please cancel the transaction. If I need your help, I’ll go to you personally.”
Eugene kept his head down as virtual-novel.net ate, furrowing his brows. He did not expect Margaret to take advantage of Allegra in matters like this.
Allegra simply refused because virtual-novel.net mother lied to her. Besides, virtual-novel.net felt reluctant to ask Watson for such a large amount of money.
“I see… Alright, I’ll call the bank to cancel the transaction.”
Meanwhile, Margaret was eating with the Gould family.
“See, Margaret? I was right, wasn’t I? We got 60 million dollars in a blink of an eye. The Kane family is truly generous.” Edward was beaming.
Margaret smirked. “I’ll go to Watson again after we establish the company. I wonder how Allegra managed to seduce him. Sixty million dollars and virtual-novel.net didn’t even hesitate. Goodness, I can’t save this much money even after working for decades!” She could not help feeling excited when virtual-novel.net thought about the eight-figure amount in virtual-novel.net bank account.
At that moment, Margaret’s phone vibrated.
She glanced at it and literally leaped in astonishment, shrieking, “The money! Where did the money go?”
She received a message stating, “The transaction of 60,000,000 dollars has been canceled. Your current balance is 15.37 dollars.”
Edward got up. “What happened? You have the financial department manager’s number, right? Just call and ask.”
Margaret sought out the number and called immediately, virtual-novel.net hands shaking.
“Hello, Mr. Yard. This is Margaret Gould speaking. I’ve just received a message saying… What? Allegra said virtual-novel.net didn’t need the money, so you canceled the transaction?!”
After virtual-novel.net hung up, Margaret’s face was as dark as thunder. She picked up virtual-novel.net handbag and dashed out.
She was furious about losing the money.
It was 8.30 pm. Allegra had just taken a walk after dinner and was resting on the sofa when Margaret barged in, looking angry.
“Allegra, you bitch! Have you lost it?! Why did you reject 60 million dollars?!” Margaret ran up to virtual-novel.net and scolded her.
Allegra’s heart jolted. She said softly, “Mom, I don’t even know what company to run. Besides, I don’t feel good asking others for money.”
Upon hearing this, Margaret got even angrier. “Pfft. You don’t feel good? Then when you were on Watson’s bed, did you feel better?”
Allegra’s face turned sour. She felt virtual-novel.net tears welling up. “Mom, what did you say? There’s nothing between Mr. Kane and me. Why are you accusing me?”
