Chapter 40 Unfortunate
Elizabeth accepted the money, which amounted to five hundred. Her eyes lit up when she saw the amount. Mr. Hilton is so generous. I’ll only need two hundred to prepare these dishes.
Does this mean I can keep the remaining three hundred? later.
As she pondered about that, she had already decided which market she was going to visit Elizabeth decided to send the three children home first before she headed out to the nearby market to buy the ingredients.
Just as she got behind the wheel, her phone rang.
She was just using her phone for navigation when she saw the message that she had just come in.
Matthew: Remember to send me the receipts. I’ll check the amount spent on the ingredients.
Elizabeth was so infuriated that she threw her phone down. She wanted to curse, but she held back the urge to do so because her kids were still inside the car.
Hence, she could only curse inwardly as she drove.
Matthew Hilton, you’re such a cheapskate! You’re a b’stard! A freaking jik!
Those were the only words she could think of. Since she had never quarreled with anyone before, she was at a loss for words.
Since Abby did not take a nap that day and had cried her heart out in the hospital earlier, she immediately fell asleep once she got into the car.
In the passenger’s seat, Cody kept sighing. “Pearl is so pitiful. Her mother is suffering as well.”
Arthur put Abby’s head on his lap before he took off his jacket and wrapped it around the latter’s body. Clearly, he was an extremely thoughtful child.
Antony felt sorry for Pearl as well. Thus, he suggested, “Mommy, if we have money, let’s lend some to Ms. Fryel”
He and Arthur had just earned five hundred thousand, and the money was just enough to pay for the treatment fee. Since Elizabeth was not willing to spend it on anything else, Antony figured that they might as well use it to save Pearl’s life.
Elizabeth was stunned when she heard that, but she quickly snapped out of her daze, as she knew that she had to focus while driving.
