Chapter 181
“How could you be so,” Olga’s words were cut off as Mrs. Panter angrily hung up the phone.
Zachary’s dad, who was standing nearby, was getting anxious. “Who Zachary likes is his business, and besides, our families have an engagement agreement. What are you doing? How am I supposed to explain this to Grace?”
“Yolanda spent over 400k from our family in one night; anyone would be against this marriage! Grace has her own issues to deal with; she won’t bother with this! Not to mention, she never liked Yolanda in the first place!”
“But you can’t just call off the engagement like that.”
“How old is Yolanda? She spent over 400k in one night; if this continues, she’ll drain our family’s wealth!”
On the other side.
“I’m so pissed off!” Olga sat on the sofa, fuming. She called Yolanda over, intending to ask what happened, but when she found out that the night’s expenses exceeded 400k and the 500k that Zachary had prepaid.
She was left dumbfounded.
So this meant tonight’s class reunion cost Zachary so much!
No wonder Mrs. Panter was so mad!
The next morning.
As Arabella was getting ready for work, she saw Martha coming back from outside, looking weak and carrying a bag with a pharmacy’s name on it. She must have ordered some anti–diarrhea medicine online.
Her face looked pale; she must have had a rough night.
Seeing Arabella, Martha instinctively hid the bag behind her and purposely kept a distance, forcing a smile and saying, “Good morning, Ms. Bella.”
Just as she was about to leave, she heard Arabella’s voice.
“Hold on.”
Martha stood still, feeling guilty. Although she bravely lifted her head to meet Arabella’s eyes, she couldn’t hide her fear.
“Do you know why I didn’t expose you last night?” Arabella’s eyes were deep.
Feigning ignorance, Martha said, “Ms. Bella, I don’t know what you’re talking about.
“Didn’t anyone tell you that what you expel can also be tested?” Arabella said, looking at her. “Hemp seeds and croton cream, you are quite creative.”
“Ms. Bella, I was confused.” Martha never expected she would know about the ingredients and bowed apologetically, “Please give me another chance.”
Arabella said nonchalantly, “If you hadn’t been working hard in this house for 18 years, I would have exposed you a long time ago.”
