“How much did you give that person?” Luke asked.
“I invested the living expenses you gave me…” Allison said embarrassingly. The person told her that she would be able to get her capital and interest back in a week. Then, she thought of investing more to gain more interest.
However, Allison did not have any savings. She only had the money that was given to her as her monthly expenses.
Luke roughly knew how much it was. His eyes darkened as he asked, “Did you call the police?”
“No…” Allison replied shamefully. The amount of money meant nothing to Luke, and she thought there was no need to call the police.
“Call the police. Leave it to them,” Luke decided right away.
Allison was surprised. It would not be a problem to call the police, but what about the money?
Luke only mentioned calling the police, but he did not say anything about the money. Allison immediately stood up and said, “Luke, uh, I’m broke now…”
“What are you planning to do?” Luke deliberately asked her such a question.
"Give me an advance for next month's living expenses. It’ll help me last during this time while the police officers get the money back. I have to return to Seoul for surgery. I need the money now." Allison stated that she would return to Seoul.
They had done so many things to get Allison to return to Seoul and receive treatment so that she would not be here as they could not stand the sight of her.
“Have the police get the money back?” Luke stared at Allison. How naive she was. She was so naive that she looked like a fool. That explained why she became a victim of fraud.
Old Master Crawford could no longer stand it. He questioned her, “Do you think you’ll be able to claim the money back after the police officers arrest that person?”
Allison kept quiet. Was she not supposed to hope to get the money back?
“Father, I…”
“I gave you a fixed amount of money for your monthly living expenses. It’s my responsibility to support you. Now that you lost the money, I shouldn’t be the one who’s responsible for it,” Luke said in a cold and heartless voice.
Once Allison heard that, she understood what Luke meant. He was refusing to give her more money. She became anxious and said, “I didn’t mean to get cheated by someone else. I’m being fooled now. As my son, can’t you lend me a hand? At least pay for my flight ticket and the surgery fees, alright?”
Allison heard Sophian mention that it was difficult to make an appointment with the cosmetic surgeon. If she missed the appointment, they could not guarantee that the cosmetic surgeon would have time to perform the surgery on her.
Hence, Allison’s priority was to buy a flight ticket and return to Seoul at this moment.
A hint of impatience flashed across Luke's cold eyes. It annoyed him when Allison used the blood ties between them against him.
“I can give you the money to return to Seoul and pay for your surgery fees, but I need something in exchange,” said Luke.
Allison's eyes lit up when she heard there was a chance to receive the money from him. There was nothing valuable on her, so she reckoned that Luke was just saying so.
The terms and conditions made between the two of them would not have any legal effect. She would agree to his request and follow his instructions for some time. Then, they would talk about it again in the future. She asked, “Tell me. What do you want me to do?”
Luke took a document out of his briefcase when Allison agreed with him. He said, "I've already found someone to appraise the villa under your name. Once you sign the property deed, your rights of ownership will be transferred to me. Then, I can transfer you the amount according to the appraised value, but the villa will be mine. I'll go through the procedures myself, and I'll pay the taxes too. You can take the money and return to Seoul for your surgery."
