"Okay, here you are." Bernard took out a stack of red money from his pocket and handed it to her.
Viola calculated the money for half a kidney and was about to take it, but the third hand grabbed it.
Putting on an unkind face, she glared at him, "Chol, give it to me."
"This beautiful lady, she doesn't love money. Please don't insult her with money."
However, it seemed that he didn't hear what they were talking about at all. He turned to Bernard with an evil smile on his face.
She could hear the "click" sound in her heart.
She smiled and took the money back as quickly as possible. "You really don't know me well enough. I want to be the kind of person who loves money now."
She counted the money in her hand and put it into her pocket defiantly.
"Vulgar." Chol snorted coldly.
"If you are as lofty as someone is this morning, I'd rather not have you."
Chol glared at her with anger, but soon he changed his mind and took Bernard's hand. "Can you tell me your name, beautiful lady?" he asked
When she saw him trying to seduce the girl, he didn't know that Bernard was a man at all. She laughed and said, "Hahaha!"
"Only Viola can ask my name." Without showing any respect to Chol, Bernard shook off his hand and turned around to put his arm around Viola's waist.
When she heard the strange calling, Viola had goose bumps.
She struggled very uncomfortably. "Well, can you let go of me?"
"When will the rash on your face be healed?" There was sadness in his eyes. "It's all my skin care products. You were hurt like this."
Noticing the complaining look on the pretty girl's face, she decided to act against her conscience and said, "It's okay. I won't blame you."
"All this is because of me. I'll treat you to dinner some other day." Bernard said with a gentle smile.
She swallowed hard and was about to refuse, "No..."
"I'm sorry. Please don't refuse me. I'm very sad..." He held her chin up, his forehead against hers.
"Hey, don't touch her. It's not appropriate to do that in front of a child,"
Chol stepped in between them to separate them and took a look at the direction of the stairs.
Following her eyesight, Viola saw the little girl sitting on the stairs with both hands holding her cheeks, and her eyes were full of stars in a dream.
After a while, her hand was held by Bernard again.
"I really like people like you who love money, simple and honest." Ignoring that Chol was between them, he gave a sweet smile.
It was the first time for Viola to hear something she liked, so she got excited at once. "You are the most talkative person I've ever seen."
When she stretched out her hands to give a hug to Bernard, she ignored the man sitting in the middle of the room. At the same time, Bernard avoided her, while the little girl ran to Chol's back and gave him a push.
Because of the misfortune, Chol kissed on her lips. When they looked at each other, they could see each other's reflection.
The strange touch on her lips made her dumbfounded.
Suddenly, there was a sound of door opening behind her. She felt something cold on her back.
Then a powerful force came over and forced her away. When she came back to her senses, she saw Maynard throwing a punch at Chol's face.
"Wow!" Chol was so shocked that he couldn't help but give a gasp. Then he raised his head and was about to hit Maynard.
The two people somehow got into a fight. Viola wiped her mouth for several times. When she saw that, she pulled away Bernard who was beside her and said: "Hey, did they have a grudge?"
"I don't know." With a flicker of slyness in his eyes, Bernard asked, "Won't you go and stop her?"
"No, thanks. I won't move my mouth."
"Really?"
Noticing his curious look, she stood up and pounded on the table. "Stop it. You're scaring the baby!"
"Ahem!" Bernard choked on his own saliva.
In order to make things more convincing, she walked through the small steps of those women in the movies with her memory.
"I don't believe you." Maynard opened his thin lips slightly and said.
"I don't believe it, either." Chol blurted out
A slight smile crept over on her face. "I have evidence."
"Give it to me." A faint smile played at Maynard's lips.
In order to muddle through, she stamped her foot and pushed through Bernard's chest in a blink of an eye——
Chol covered his eyes with his hands.
She fumbled around and took out two apples. "Do you believe me?"
When Chol saw the two apples and Bernard's flat chest, he was completely petrified.
There was a silence
"What's in your eyes?" Bernard grabbed the two apples calmly and threw one at Chol.
Chol tried to avoid it.
Bernard wanted to throw it at Maynard, but stopped when he met his icy gaze.
She clapped her hands and raised her chin proudly. "Mr. Chu, now you can believe me, right?"
"Somebody!" Maynard yelled.
A group of bodyguards rushed in and grabbed them.
Viola was stunned and asked, "Mr. Chu, what are you doing?"
"Throw the three snake spirit stones out!" Maynard waved his hand.
"Yes." The fifteen bodyguards said in unison and threw the three of them out of the door as fast as throwing garbage.
