Chapter 250 

“Who knows if you can become Mrs. Nichols? Paying upfront is our standard procedure here,” sneered the man, his voice dripping with malice. “Not a cent less. Otherwise, I’ll cut your fingers off one by one.” 

Shelia panicked, speaking with feigned composure. “I only have 100 thousand dollars on me right now. But don’t you know about the Nichols family? If you kill me, you’re killing their future heir in my wom
