However, this piece of information was more than enough for Juniper.
She thanked him, a clear plan already forming in her mind.
Using her newly purchased SIM card, she sent a text message to Nadine.
Nadine had been staying at the hospital lately. Scheduled for a month-long recovery stay, and now sitting on a hundred thousand dollars in total, she couldn't even be bothered to look at her baby.
She had even spent a long time browsing online, debating whether she should treat herself to a gold bracelet.
But if she bought it now, the Lane family would definitely get suspicious and ask where the money came from.
Nadine was incredibly anxious. Vain by nature, she had wanted a Van Cleef bracelet for a long time but never had the cash for it.
She remembered back in their rural hometown, someone had flaunted that very bracelet in front of her, bragging that it cost half a year's salary.
Nadine had memorized the name Van Cleef right then and there.
Swallowing hard, she couldn't resist placing an order for one.
Excitement bubbled up inside her. The bracelet cost five thousand dollars. Even after spending that, she still had nearly a hundred thousand left in her account.
A woman really needed to buy things like this to feel like she was actually living.
Right as she was buzzing with excitement, a message from an unknown number popped up on her phone.
"Did you spend the fifty thousand yet? Want to make another easy payday?"
Only she and her mysterious contact knew the secret about the fifty thousand, though this wasn't the number they usually used.
Nadine was somewhat cunning, but not terribly bright, so she replied without a second thought.
"Why aren't you using your old number?"
