When the GF9 Test Subject Became His Obsession novel Chapter 127

So she was the type to respond to money.

"I'm Craig, owner of Eagle Jewelers."

Seeing the name, Serena paused. "Mom, isn’t Aunt Wendy’s son named Craig?"

"That’s right. He runs Eagle Jewelers—it’s a well-known emerald dealer here in Evervale City."

"The call you made earlier… was that to him?"

Serena’s tone sounded like she was ready to defend her mom, like a daughter confronting someone who’d bullied her outside.

Olivia cleared her throat. "Your cousin’s always been polite with us. He must’ve really had something urgent today. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have hung up."

She was trying to save a bit of face in front of her daughter.

Serena didn’t look particularly concerned. She left her phone on the table and headed to wash up.

Craig waited, phone in hand, still no reply. So he sent another thousand dollars.

“Can we be friends?”

Serena replied instantly: "No."

What the hell? You’ve already taken two thousand from me and still say no?

Craig gritted his teeth and typed again:

"Then can you at least tell me how you picked out that emerald?"

He included a photo of the emerald and another thousand-dollars transfer.

Serena: "Luck."

Damn.

Could you be any more vague?

Craig: "Hey, with luck like yours, would you be interested in gambling on stones with me next time?"

He didn’t want to send more money… but after a whole minute of no response, he caved and sent another thousand.

Serena: "Sure. As long as the money’s right."

Of course. Her response time was directly proportional to the size of his payment.

"Let’s add each other on WhatsApp?"

He tossed another thousand.

"Adding me costs five thousand more."

F*ck.

Are you seriously not a scammer?

If he didn’t already know she was a girl, he would’ve cursed her out in person.

Yep. Definitely a money-driven person.
