Born Into Villain's Family: I Have a 200\% Rebate System-Chapter 51: Gold Bars
Chapter 51: Chapter 51: Gold Bars
And Olivia... she wanted to give away her kidney in silence?
Just what was she even thinking?
She thought they were fine all along and weren’t worried about her.
But now it seems...they were worried but they just didn’t dare to show it in front of her.
She blinked back the tears and tiptoed back to her room.
If they didn’t want to show their weak side to her, Aurora wasn’t going to expose them.
Sometimes, it’s better to stay silent than to confront.
After 20 minutes
Everyone emerged from Adam’s room and acted as if everything was alright.
Aurora noticed they had red-rimmed eyes, which previously didn’t notice. She clenched her fist and it took her a lot of effort to not console them.
Instead, she had her breakfast and said,
"Mom, I am going to meet Tiffany."
Mary looked at her with a concerned gaze,
"Shall I come along? What if your stomach starts to hurt again and..."
"Mom, I will be fine..." Aurora showed a bright smile.
"Mom, you don’t need to worry, she is a monkey. She can’t sit still in one place for a long while." Olivia chuckled.
"Hey!" Aurora pointed her finger at Olivia.
Theodore tapped on Olivia’s arms and scolded,
"Don’t say such rude things...about the monkeys, they will be offended."
Aurora: "..."
These two creatures who were crying for her earlier, now seem to roast her as if she was their enemy.
Taking a deep breath, Aurora gave a bright smile,
Aurora crossed her arms and smirked.
"Oh wow, look at you two, suddenly all mighty and funny. Olivia, weren’t you the one who tripped over air last week? And Theodore, I seem to recall a certain someone crying over a video of a puppy yesterday."
Olivia gasped, her face turning red.
Theodore scoffed, crossing his arms. "At least I have emotions, unlike you, heartless creature."
Aurora rolled her eyes dramatically.
"Says the guy who panicked when he lost his socks and accused the washing machine of eating them."
Lucas snorted, nearly choking on his juice. "She’s got a point."
Mary sighed, shaking her head with a small smile. "Alright, alright, enough roasting each other at the breakfast table."
Aurora grinned, taking a bite of her toast. "Hey, I’m just defending my honor here."
Olivia stuck out her tongue. "You have no honor."
Aurora placed a hand on her chest, faking offense. "How dare you? I am the very symbol of grace and dignity."
Theodore let out a fake cough. "Do you know your lie had caused seven penguins to suic*de on their own?"
Aurora: "..." Toxic!
"And do you know your acting has caused seven mermaids to declare to never watch TV?"
Theodore: "..."
At the cafe.
Aurora waited for Emily to arrive.
Emily had told her that she had brown hair, and was going to wear a white top and blue jeans.
Just as she was waiting, Emily arrived.
With her slight baby bump, she looked around and sported a girl in a red top and skinny-fit jeans.
Emily padded toward Aurora and asked in a hesitant voice,
"Aurora?"
Aurora lifted her head and looked at Emily, then she asked back,
"Emily?"
Emily nodded and said down.
"So you are the one who wants me to hire me?"
"Yes." Aurora nodded. "All you have to do is..."
..........
After the discussion, Emily and Aurora went to a nearby gold shop and bought gold worth $175,000.
Though it seemed a lot, they could only buy 1.8 kg of gold bars.
She transferred $4000 to Emily.
$3000 as her salary, and $1000 as for hiring the thugs.
Once done she left, while Emily went to stage the show.
.......
At noon.
Adam had sold the $90,000 Rolex watch and was in a daze.
Life should have become more difficult, however, with the arrival of mystery gifts, the medical expenses and the university fees didn’t seem as difficult to pay off as it was supposed to...
Mary who was beside him, couldn’t help but sigh,
"Maybe the god has taken pity on us?"
Adam said nothing.
He too felt the same.
Otherwise, why would they receive gifts and something so expensive and valuable?
"With this money, we can pay off the surgery and bed cost for an entire month. Now we just have to think of a way to earn enough money for the chemotherapy. With the previous $30,000 left, we don’t need to worry about money for a year or so..." Adam muttered.
Just as he was telling his worries, a woman suddenly rushed toward him.
Adam subconsciously wanted to dodge her, however, the woman didn’t stop, instead, she rushed to Mary and hid behind her,
"Help me."
Mary barely had time to react when the woman grabbed her arm, her grip tight and desperate.
Her face was pale, and her brown hair was messy as if she had been running for a long time.
"Help me! Please! They’re trying to take me away!" Emily’s voice was shaky, her breath uneven. She clung to Mary as if her life depended on it.
Mary instinctively held her, looking over at Adam with wide, confused eyes. freewebnσvel.cѳm
Before Adam could say anything, three men stormed toward them.
They were tall and muscular, wearing dark clothes, and their expressions were fierce. One of them cracked his knuckles while another smirked cruelly.
"Lady, don’t make things harder for yourself," the leader of the thugs sneered. "Come with us quietly, and you won’t get hurt."
Emily clutched Mary even tighter, trembling like a leaf in the wind.
"No! Please! I can’t go back! They’ll hurt me!" She sobbed, making her voice quiver in fear. "My mother-in-law hired them! "
Mary gasped, holding Emily protectively. "What? Why would she do that?"
"I am a rich heiress and my husband married me because he knew about my true identity." Emily sobbed.
Adam stepped forward, standing in front of Mary and Emily.
Though he was just a car mechanic, he worked out every day, and his muscles were well-defined.
