Instant Millionaire novel Chapter 11

When Krista was thinking nonsense, her father on the other side said, "Daughter, how could I pull the strings? If I can, do I have to be so angry this morning? Krista, this morning, I was too anxious. I didn't mean to marry you to Maggie. I said that out of anger. Don't be angry with me..."

Her father's words caused Krista to blush. Her face looked redder.

"What are you talking about? My friends are all listening! I didn't expect you to say marrying me to Maggie!

Krista felt her cheeks hot and looked awkward. She stood up and walked away to talk to her father.

"Dad, is it true that you didn't pull the strings?" Krista had a double-check.

"If I did, how could I ask you to spend a night with Maggie this morning..."

Krista closed her eyes and took a deep breath. She suppressed her impulse to say dirty word and said, "Will you stop talking about that? My friends were listening just now, and I put you on speaker. You've embarrassed me a lot."

"I didn't know that your friends were there. It's my fault. Krista, but why did you put me on speaker?"

Krista covered her forehead with her hand and said, "Alright, forget about it. Besides, I wish I could escape from here and disappear."

"What did I put you on speaker? Didn't I think that you had connections with powerful people so that I wanted to show off in front of my friends? Now, not only did I fail to show off, I was silly because others were aware of my scandal!" Krista thought to herself.

"Well, Krista, could it be that your friend helped pull the strings?"

"My friend" Krista turned around and glanced at the others at the table. It was possible. They had called before.

"Your friend probably played a role! He did us a big favor, so you have to thank him." Dad cleared his mind.

"Sure, that's it. I'm hanging up!" At this moment, Krista's attitude was more casual. It turned out to be my friend who helped solve my problems. She thought, "If that was the case, why did you scold me and even make a fool of me?"

Krista's father added, "Wait a moment, the person who helped us should have something to do with Mr. Jax of the Chamber of Commerce. As the problem was resolved with the help of Mr. Jax, the person must be powerful. Take care."

Hanging up the phone, Krista walked back to the dining table with doubt. Everyone was very interested to hear her explaining the details. Who was it that was able to have connections with the president of the Chamber of Commerce?

Krista glanced at others and her gaze was fixed on Karissa, who was closest to her. She smiled and asked, "Karissa, did you help me with that?"

Karissa was shocked and shook her head. She put on an awkward smile, "How can I have such a strong connection? Are you kidding me, Krista?"

"Really?" Krista asked again and looked a little puzzled.

"It wasn't me!" Karissa felt a little anxious.

Krista turned to look at Scarlet, who was beside Karissa, "Scarlet, was it you?"

Scarlet shook her head. "No, I don't have such capability. Krista, I've called all my relatives. They can't help you..."

Next, Krista asked one after another.

"Alden, it was you who helped me with the connection."

"Milo, you used your connections for me."

"Linda, it must be you, right?"

....

Krista asked everyone there except Quincy. She took a glance and ignored him.

She wasn't sure about the others, but it couldn't be Quincy. He was an idiot who dared to go to the Citibank without a card? It would be a joke for him to do that.

"Then who could do this?" Krista lowered her head and thought seriously. Suddenly, a name appeared in her mind like startling lightning.
