Chapter 64: Pick Up The Money
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Ever since the last time they parted at New Century Restaurant, Connor had not contacted Freya Phillips.
Although the two of them had exchanged phone numbers, Freya had never taken the initiative to call Connor.
At this moment, Connor looked at the name ‘Freya Phillips’ on the phone screen, puzzled.
He couldn’t understand why Freya would call him so late at night.
Dominic saw ‘Freya Phillips’ on Connor’s phone screen, too. He couldn’t help but laugh and say, “Connor, your fiancee is calling you. Why aren’t you answering?”
“Yeah, answering it!”
Spencer chipped in.
Connor hesitated, then answered the call, “Hello?”
“Where are you now?”
Freya asked coldly from the other end of the phone.
“I’m at the Dusk. What’s up?” Connor was stunned before replying softly.
“Then wait for me there. 1’11 go to you now…”
Freya replied indifferently. Then, she hung up without waiting for Connor to respond.
Connor seemed a little helpless, having been hung up on. He didn’t know what Freya was up to.
“Connor, what did your fiancee say to you?”
Dominic asked curiously.
“Nothing. Let’s go!”
Connor said indifferently and turned around to leave.
He didn’t want to expose his true identity. If he told Dominic and Spencer that Freya would come to him in a while, then the two would want to stay to see his fiancee.
If Dominic and Spencer knew that it was the one and only Freya Phillips, then it would be difficult for Connor to still keep his secret.
Therefore, he planned to leave this place for now and then come back secretly.
When Dominic and Spencer noticed that something didn’t seem right, they didn’t ask any further questions. They followed Connor out of the bar.
A few minutes later, Connor and the other two went their separate ways at the university’s gate. Then, he returned to the bar entrance alone and waited quietly for Freya to arrive.
Ten minutes later, a taxi stopped at the entrance of Dusk.
However, the person who got out of the taxi was not Freya but Maya Phillips, with whom Connor had an encounter before.
Today, Maya was wearing a short dress. Her sexy figure was even more attractive in contrast to the dress. She was irresistible from head to toe.
Her beautiful face wore light makeup. Her eyes were charming, and her sexy lips had a slick of pink lipstick. The short dress wrapped snugly over her sexy buttocks.
Her slender and fair legs were pleasantly exposed.
Maya got out of the taxi and briefly glanced at the entrance of Dusk.
When Maya saw Connor, her eyes were filled with disgust. She walked up to him as her heels clicked against the ground.
“Didn’t your sister want to see me? Why are you here?”
Connor asked Maya gently.
“Do you think I want to meet a lame delivery boy like you?”
Maya replied rudely and continued, “My sister is tied up with something at the company, so she can’t come here in person. She has asked me to give you your allowance!”
“Allowance?”
Connor was surprised.
“Didn’t you tell my sister to give you twenty thousand dollars a month? There are 120 000 dollars here! It’s your allowance for half a year…”
Maya handed a black bag to Connor as she spoke.
Connor only realized what was going on when he saw the money in the bag. When he had negotiated with Freya at New Century Restaurant, he had indeed asked her for twenty thousand dollars a month.
Connor reached out to take the bag, but Maya had deliberately let go of the bag a second earlier.
Thud.
The bag fell to the ground.
Connor couldn’t help but feel stunned when he saw the bag drop. However, he didn’t say anything. Instead, he slowly bent down to pick up the bag.
Maya looked even more disdainful when she saw Connor grovel. She couldn’t help but mock, “Connor McDonald, are you even a real man? You’re a man, yet you are asking for money from my sister. You’re a loser. Don’t you have any dignity as a human being?”
“Your sister is my fiancee. We’re going to get married soon. It’s only right for me to spend her money. What does it have to do with you?”
Connor replied indifferently. Then, he unzipped the bag in front of her and started counting seriously.
“You…”
When Maya heard that, she seemed even more upset.
“Humph! No wonder the students of your school ridiculed you. People like you are a loser. How can you keep your chin up when living off a woman? 1 really admire you. How can a man like you exist?”
Maya said mercilessly, her tone extremely harsh and unkind, venting her dissatisfaction toward Connor.
“A man like me?”
A strange look flashed through his eyes.
“That’s right, a man like you. You’re disgusting!” Maya said quickly.
“Hehe…”
Connor looked at Maya and sneered. Then, without thinking, he tore the black bag and threw it into the air.
Crash!
Countless banknotes fluttered in the wind. It looked extremely spectacular.
“Connor McDonald, what are you doing? Are you crazy?”
Maya shouted at Connor in horror.
“Pick up the money and give it to me!” Connor said to Maya expressionlessly.
“You threw the money yourself. Why should 1 help you pick them up? Do you want it or not?”
Maya obviously wouldn’t do what Connor told her to do.
“You’re not picking them up, right?”
Connor smiled faintly and then continued, “Then, go back and tell Freya that I haven’t received my allowance for this month. If 1 don’t see twenty thousand dollars within three days, my agreement with her will not be effective. She must become my legal wife!”
“Connor McDonald, you…”
As Maya was about to say something, Connor turned around and walked away.
Maya hesitated. She knew that her mission today was to deliver money to Connor. If he didn’t receive the money, she would have to reimburse this 120 000 dollars from her pocket.
Maya’s family was wealthy, and she was a fair, rich, and beautiful woman.
However, she was only a student now. 120 000 dollars was still a considerable amount of money for her.
“Connor McDonald, you bastard!”
Maya cursed and quickly bent down to pick up the banknotes from the ground.
However, the people in the bar seemed to have noticed the banknotes. So, they rushed out of the bar and started to grab them.
“Don’t take them! This is my money! You bandits, stop!”
Maya shouted angrily at the people who had rushed out to grab the banknotes.
However, the people were greedy for money. They didn’t care about Maya and started to fight for the money.
Even Mandy, May, Lily and others joined the crowd to grab the money.
Maya, who was arrogant before, tried to pick up the banknotes from the ground like a crazy person. She looked extremely pathetic.
Connor, who was not far away, could not help but grin as he watched the chaos from a distance away. He waved to hail a taxi and was ready to go home..
