Mr. Conrad Proposes to His Ex-wife Again novel Chapter 292

Jeffrey leaned towards Adolph, “You know, I have a daughter. She’s so capable that she even established a company. I prepare to ask her to give me some annuity. Then I will return the money to you.”

Adolph took a glance at him, “Will she give you the money?”

“Of course she will. She won’t dare to refuse my request. After all, I’ve got something on her.”

“What’s it?”

Jeffrey looked around and kept down his voice, “I have to thank you for this. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have gotten the photos. Looks like it was a wise choice to take these pictures before. Rest assured, she will pay for the photos.”

Adolph sneered, “Is she really your daughter?”

Jeffrey rolled his eyes. He didn’t answer the question and said, “Rest assured. I will have money and will pay my debt. Since we’ve known each other for many years, I will give you some more money when I get the money from her.”

Adolph asked, “Will you give her the photos if she gives you the money?”

Jeffrey chuckled, “Oh, don’t point it out. She’s a ready source of money for me. At least I should get the money to pay for my coffin from her, right?”

“To pay for your coffin is enough? I think you’re a bottomless pit.”

“Oh, how can you say these words? I brought up. Shouldn’t she be filial to me?”

“Enough,” Adolph stood up, “I don’t want to beat around the bush with you, and I know you can’t return the money to me. Give me the photos and all the negative plates, and then we will get even. I will not charge the interest.”

Jeffrey refused it without a second thought, “No.”

Adolph turned to look at him, “What? Do you want to negotiate with me?”

“How dare i? I told you just now, I have to earn my coffin expense from it. It’s my lifeblood. If I give the things to you, how can I live through the rest of my life?”

“Cut the craps. Maybe you will not get the money. Moreover, if you go to the gambling house right after getting the money and lose, how will you return the money to me?”

“Oh, why are you talking about? Can’t I win?” When speaking, he shook the pile of banknotes in his hand, “Look, these are the money I won today. It’s a relatively large sum, right?”

Adolph said, “Don’t talk nonsense. Give me the things and I will go to her for money.”

Seeing that Jeffrey was still hesitating, Adolph continued, “If what you said is true and she gives me a large sum of money, I will apportion it to you.”

“This can’t work. It…”

Adolph kicked down the chair in front of him and said impatiently, “I don’t want to say it for three times.”

Seeing this, Jeffrey could only agree to it reluctantly, “Then… please go home with me. I live in the vicinity and it’s only several minutes away from here.”

Adolph stood up, “Let’s go.”

After walking out of the underground gambling house, Jeffrey quickly looked around. Apparently, he was trying to find an opportunity to run away.

But Adolph had been watching him and he could by no means escape.

They arrived at an old building. Jeffrey said, “Here it is. You may go upstairs first.”

Adolph said, “What trick are you going to play again?”

“How can I play a trick? It’s the first time for you to come to my house, so I should prepare some alcohol and dishes to entertain you, right? Otherwise, it will be so mean.”

“I don’t drink, nor do I want to eat anything. Don’t try to plot anything. Hurry up.”

Jeffrey had no choice but to hobble upstairs.

They walked past a pile of sundries on the second floor. Jeffery stood in front of a paint-shedding wood door and produced a bunch of keys from his pocket trembling.

Adolph stood aside and lit a cigarette.

Right at this moment, Jeffrey suddenly grabbed a flowerpot beside the door and threw it towards Adolph. Then he jumped down the second floor.
