“Then how can we make money quickly?”
Just as the four kids were at a loss, Kyle’s cool voice rang, “I have an idea!”
“What is it?”
The three other siblings turned their attention to Kyle simultaneously.
Kyle was behaving mysteriously as he lowered his voice to speak his mind. Each of the siblings held differing opinions about his idea.
Propping his cheek against his elbow, Juan nodded thoughtfully after giving it a thought. “This method to make money is indeed fast enough.”
Nina gave Kyle a thumbs up; she could not agree more. She then exclaimed, “I fully agree! That’s how we should do it.”
Maya blinked her puppy eyes, reacting half a beat later dazedly.
Nina looked over her shoulders and snorted coldly, “Are you thinking of ratting on us? It wasn’t easy for Mommy to raise you. You need to have some conscience.”
Maya rolled her eyes at her. “You’re the heartless one. I have the most conscience! My conscience is this big!” She stretched her hand out and made a big heart shape.
Pouting, Nina wanted to refute but she zipped her lips sulkily as she recalled how Maya hit her with the teddy bear.
Forget it. Maya’s temper is getting worse recently. Not only does she smash people with a teddy bear, but she also punches people with her tiny fist. I better not mess with her.
“Since there’s no objection, Juan and I will proceed with the plan. The two of you only need to cooperate with us when the time comes. Make sure Mommy does not suspect a thing.”
Nina thought about it and nodded vigorously, as did Maya.
Meanwhile, Nicole was racking her brains for a way to source funds.
It’s not suitable to ask Rocky for help again. Should I ask Davin to lend me some money?
Hesitating, she called Davin unwillingly.
But it was Sheila who answered.
Taken aback, she did not bring up the money and asked about Davin’s injuries instead.
“He still can’t move around too much, but I find this a good thing. If he can get out of bed, I’d need to constantly look for his whereabouts! It’s easier for me this way.”
“Sheep, can you pray for my speedy recovery?”
“You called me Sheep again!”
