“Olivia, my son doesn’t have time to argue with you while he’s working!” Mrs. Cole snorted coldly, “I’m his mother, and my words are his intentions.”
“Whatever you have, just say it to me. Let me make it clear to you. I have documented expenses here. Apart from what I’ve mentioned, he has bought furniture and appliances while living with you. Just an massage chair alone costs over twenty thousand!”
Mrs. Cole seemed to be the most reasonable person in the world. “I won’t mention how my son wasted two years of his youth on you. Those furniture are also used together. This three hundred thousand is definitely not too much for me to ask. Pay up quickly.”
Olivia’s face turned pale with anger. If she hadn’t been injured, she would have rushed over to hit someone!
Ranita held her back, and even chuckled lightly. “Madam, you want money, right? three hundred thousand means nothing to me, but since the parties involved are not present, I don’t feel comfortable giving the money. You get him over here.”
“Otherwise, don’t expect a single cent.”
Mrs. Cole thought there would be a big fuss, but she didn’t expect Ranita to relent so easily. She secretly regretted whether she had asked for too little with three hundred thousand. She should have asked for fifty or a hundred million!
But three hundred thousand was good enough.
“I just need to call Francisco over? You’ll really give me the money?” Mrs. Cole’s triangular eyes scrutinized Ranita uncomfortably.
Ranita took out her phone from her bag, opened the bank balance page, and pushed it in front of Mrs. Cole, “See clearly? three hundred thousand, it can be transferred in less than a second.”
Mrs. Cole saw so many digits for the first time in her life. Just the fractions were more money than she had ever seen.
Mrs. Cole swallowed hard, looking at Ranita as if she were looking at a big gold ingot.
She adjusted her hair, “Alright, you wait here, I’ll call him over.” Mrs. Cole thought to herself that when Francisco came later, she would just raise the price directly. three hundred thousand was really too little.
Mrs. Cole didn’t mince words, immediately took out her phone, dialed a number, and went to the balcony while talking. However, her voice was too loud, and every word was heard clearly.
“Son, come to the hospital quickly.”
“I told you to come! A windfall has come, that Miss Bowman is willing to help Olivia with three hundred thousand!”
“I’ve said it before, if I step in, it will work! It’s not easy for you to make money, you need to recover this money.”
“Let me tell you, three hundred thousand is too little. Before Olivia started dating you, she lived with someone else. Now that she’s asking for a breakup, shouldn’t she be compensated for emotional damages?”
“When you come later, we’ll raise the price to five hundred thousand… no… raise it to eight hundred thousand!”
The more Mrs. Cole said, the more pleased she felt, as if a pile of money had already landed in her hands. She said, “I’ve seen it myself, Miss Bowman’s balance… I’ve never seen so much money in my life, eighty thousand is just nothing to her.”
“Son, seeing such a long string of numbers made my eyes blur. How about we ask for one million? Eight hundred thousand is too trivial…”
…
Everyone in the hospital room heard it.
Those who had looked down on Olivia before were now speechless, even feeling a bit sympathetic towards her.
Olivia’s face turned extremely pale.
“Ranita, don’t indulge them!” Olivia’s words had just fallen when Mrs. Cole came in. As soon as she heard, she became unhappy, saying ominously, “Olivia, what’s wrong with you? How come you’re indulging us now? You’ve spent this money for real, shouldn’t you compensate us?”
