Pampered by My Ex-husband (Penny and Orlando) novel Chapter 187

Chapter 187 Just for the Money

A few buttons on Trevor's collar were undone, giving him a slightly rebellious look. He flicked the cigarette ash with his slender fingertips and smiled as he collected the money on the table in front of him.

"It's just luck."

It was unclear whether he was referring to the gambling game or responding to the man's question.

His lips were slightly powdered, not allowing any fluctuations to show, exuding a handsome and almost enchanting aura.

Perhaps he had restrained his pure and clean appearance in front of Sandra, he now seemed more charismatic.

"It's not just luck. It's because you have such a good-looking face. If you had put aside your pride earlier and seduced a rich woman, you wouldn't need to come here and gamble to cover your medical expenses."

The others at the gambling table burst into laughter. Cigarette butts were thrown into the water-filled ashtray, leaving behind yellowish stains.

Trevor paid no attention to such insults. After the game, he took out a few bills and placed them on the table.

"I'll cover the cost of the coffee today. I have to go now. The hospital is pressuring me for money."

"Trevor, you've already seduced a rich woman, and are you still short on money? Don't rush to pay the hospital. Zain is also pressuring us. Compared to the high-interest loans you owe, this amount is just a drop in the bucket."

"Konnor, take these two bills and buy cigarettes. Please say a few good words to Zain on my behalf. I will definitely repay the money."

The man called Konnor took the money, and his expression improved.

"You know how to handle things, Trevor. When will you bring your rich second-generation girlfriend to meet us? We haven't seen a rich second-generation girl before."

The group of men grinned, kicking empty mineral water bottles and discarded betel nut wrappers on the ground.

Trevor smiled and as he walked out of the door, his expression turned serious.

Coincidentally, Sandra called him, and he looked into the distance, changing his voice to a gentler tone.

"Sandra."

"Trevor, do you remember my friend that you met last time? Penny needs to find a man to pretend to be her husband. It's a complicated situation, but as long as this man publicly acknowledges being her husband in front of others and cooperates with her acting, my friend will pay him handsomely. She's quite wealthy, so the payment will be substantial."
