His sudden change of expression startled Abbie.
"Why are you so fierce? Who do you think you are?"
"You can have a try if you don't believe me" Michael looked at her coldly.
He had always been cheerful and humorous towards her.
So this change in attitude made her feel afraid.
"What the hell! Can anyone just bully me? If you weren't my brother-in-law, I wouldn't have come to you for help, anyway! Let's go, Valeria!"
Abbie took Valeria's hand and left.
Michael sat in his chair with a scary look on his face.He looked like a devil that just rose from hell.
Abbie pulled Valeria out of Michael's law firm and got on her car angrily.
"That d*mn Michael.Who does he think he is to threaten me?"
"Alright, cool down.I have money, you can use it first.He can't possibly cut your card off for the rest of your life, right?"
Valeria persuaded her.
"Well, there's nothing else I can do" Abbie started the engine and left.
Suddenly, Valeria received a call from Bobby.
"Miss Brown, it's Bobby speaking.Do you have some time to spare?"
"Yes, I have some time.Is anything that matters?"
"Yes, there is.I would like to talk to you in person.You can choose the location” Valeria gave him the address of the cafe nearby and Abbie drove her there.
She waited in the cafe with Abbie for about half an hour before Bobby arrived. Bobby greeted them once he entered, "Hello Miss Brown and Miss Clark."
"Have a seat, I ordered some coffee’ "No, I'm leaving soon."
Bobby didn't sit down and he gave her a card.
"This is for you.The password is six eights."
"What is this?"
Valeria looked at the card incredulously.
"Sir William asked me to give it to you"
"William? Why is he giving me a card?"
"There is one billion dollars in this card.It is the breakup fee for you.Please accept it, Miss Brown"
"Breakup fee? One million dollars?"
Abbie jumped in shock upon hearing that.How come William was so generous? She looked at Valeria immediately, whose face was flushed.
"What does he take me for? I don't want his money.Take it back"
"This is Sir William's order.Please don't make things difficult for me, Miss Brown."
Seeing that Valeria wasn't going to accept it, he put it on the tray in front of him and walked away.
"Stop! Take the card!"
Valeria got up and chased after him.
Bobby had long legs, so he walked very quickly.She couldn't even keep up with him.
When Bobby reached his car, he sped off immediately.
Valeria stomped her feet with the card in her hand while tears were welling up in her eyes.
William was so infuriating, man! Was it so great to have money? One billion dollars? What did he take her for? Valeria threw the card on the ground angrily.
Abbie followed behind and picked the card up.
"Wow, Valeria.Is it true? Is there really one billion dollars in this card? Did he really give you this?"
"I don't know! Abbie, how can he do this? It's so frustrating "
"What are you angry about? Since he wants to give it to you, you should just accept it.Let's go and check if there really is one billion dollars here"
"No, don't check it.What's there to check?"
