The children giggled and delivered the gift box to Jay's hands, not forgetting to encourage him. "Good luck, Daddy."
"Okay."
Then, Jay went upstairs, but Josie was blocking him a t the top of the staircase.
Josie had brought a chair over and was blocking the whole entrance. She started smiling particularly brightly upon seeing Jay.
"Out of my way!" Jay scoffed.
Josie touched her belly. "I'm a pregnant lady, so if you want me to let you in, you’ll have to humble yourself to please me.”
"Stop all the nonsense and just tell me how much money you want?" Jay went straight to the point.
Josie scowled fiercely. "Big Brother, do I look like the kind of person who'd betray Sis Angeline for money?"
"Ten million," Jay said.
Josie remained unbudged.
Then, Jay instructed the groomsmen, "Carry her away."
Josie was dumbfounded. "You can't do this. Even if
you carry me off, you won't get the treasure and Sis Angeline won't see you until you complete the task."
Jay said, "Angeline will also be very reluctant to hand you the money that belongs to her."
Josie gave it further thought and decided he was making a lot of sense.
She immediately changed her mind. "Alright then. Ten million. Place the cash in my hand and I'll hand you the treasure with the other."
Storm came over with another Amex black card.
Jay had finally arrived at Angeline's bedroom door, but there were now four tall and stalwart teenagers guarding it. They were Jenson, Baby Robbie, Baby Zetty, and Thirteen.
Jay suddenly felt unprecedented pressure.
He could easily fool Baby Zetty and Baby Robbie, but Jenson and Thirteen were both as cunning as wolves. Moreover, even if the Ghost members had to deal with Jenson, Robbie, and Thirteen-three highly-trained teens in combat skills—it might be somewhat challenging.
At this moment, Finn stepped forward and rubbed on Baby Zetty’s head. "Silly goose, help Brother Finn out and let your daddy go in, hmm?"
