Although Rosie had just broken up with her boyfriend, she was thankful she still had her money back. So, she was in a much better mood than before. Seeing many people preparing for the barbecue on the lawn, she joined in and helped out.
Alina was also surprised that Damon would return the 300 thousand dollars so quickly. She looked at Wilson with admiration.
She followed after Wilson and threw questions at him. "Scumbag, how would he agree? He is such a jerk!"
On the text message, his tone was so arrogant. Damon insisted that he didn't take Rosie's money. Why would he return the money so promptly? Alina couldn't understand it!
Wilson raised the corners of his lips and smiled mysteriously.
Alina immediately started guessing. "Scumbag, you didn't threaten him, did you?"
Wilson raised his eyebrows. "It's Mr. Bennett who handled this. He is a lawyer."
Alina tilted her head. "That's right. You weren't the one who dealt with it. Mr. Bennett is such a formidable person. I really want to know how he did it. In such a short period of time, he could convince that jerk to willingly return the money."
Wilson observed Alina. She looked perplexed as she tried to wrap her brain around it, but she couldn't figure it out. Wilson couldn't help but be amused at her antics.
He smiled and said, "Take a walk with me. I'll tell you."
"Do you know?" Alina looked at Wilson, her eyes wide with expectation.
"Yes."
"Wasn't I beside you all the time?"
Wilson reached out and held Alina's hand as they took a walk on the lawn, stepping on the grass.
Alina felt a little awkward holding hands with Wilson.
Wilson smiled at her. "We should get used to it. We are husband and wife now. In front of others, we should act like a couple that makes them look on with envy!"
