The Abandoned Wife (Lucian) novel Chapter 1420

Frieda could not help but shudder again.

She was not like Aubree. Aubree had a say over the Pearson family’s matters. To her, several tens of millions were nothing.

But in Frieda’s situation, she had zero authority in the Queen family. The money she spent was allowance given to her by the elders.

Given how extravagant she was with her money, she had only a few million in her hand.

If I gave Aubree five million in one go, I wouldn’t have much left for myself, would I?

“I don’t have that much money, Aubree. You should know about my situation.” Frieda tried to bargain her way out cautiously.

An ugly scowl showed up on Aubree’s face. “Then how much do you have?”

Frieda mulled over it for a moment. “Two million. Can’t go any higher…”

I won’t have enough to spend if I give her more than two million. Now that I’ve just rejoined Queen Group, I can’t possibly lay my hands on the company’s money yet. Besides, Jonathan will surely get suspicious if I use the money now.

On the other end of the line, Aubree’s breathing turned rough. “Give me two million today first. Make up for the rest of the five million after that!”

Relief washed over Frieda when she heard those words. Through the phone, her tone remained sincere. “I will. Don’t worry, Aubree. As long as I’m in the Queen family, I won’t let you live a tough life!”

Satisfied with the response, Aubree snorted coldly and hung up after letting Frieda know the address.

The darkened phone screen reflected Frieda’s vicious expression.

What a bloodsucker!

Of course, Frieda dared not waste any time as she was also worried that Aubree might do something drastic if she was desperate.

That afternoon, she grabbed her bank card and hurried to the suburban mansion.

As soon as she entered, she was utterly shocked by the environment in the house.

If Aubree wasn’t sitting on the couch, Frieda would have wondered if the place was even fit for humans to stay in.
