Chapter 106 Twelve–Month Installment.
Horace was in a state of panic as he caught the photos, and his face fell after a glance. Then, he advanced in anger, gritting his teeth as he demanded, “Did you have someone follow me?”
Angela chuckled. I’m just a student, what power do I have to track you? These photos were sent to Queenie by someone. Lina Trace wants to cause trouble, so she sent the photo of you two together. What are her intentions? You guys are truly despicable! While you’re out fooling around, your mother is here, insulting my cousin. Do you think our family is defenseless? To think that my cousin has been so kind to you… Have you lost all sense of decency?”
“Angela, this is between me and Queenie. You shouldn’t meddle too much.” Horace’s expression darkened, a mix of anger and embarrassment.
As Angela spoke confidently, he was unsure if she was lying to him or if the photo was indeed from Lina. He and Lina had always shared a mutual understanding of physical pleasure. However, Lina had mentioned her desire to settle down as she was getting older at the age of twenty–seven, which made it plausible for her to scheme against him in this manner.
Angela pursed her lips and remarked sarcastically. “Your mother is pretending to be ill just to use Uncle Donald to ask me for money, isn’t she? How much do you want? I’ll give it to you.”
Horace paused, gazing at Angela, and asked, “What do you mean?”
“It’s simple, if you divorce Queenie, I’ll give you the money.” Angela said casually, exuding ant air of confidence. “Although I don’t understand why you’re in such dire need of money, 1 assume time is running out for the other party, right?”
Otherwise, Horace wouldn’t have resorted to such a plan, having his mother feign illness and then seeking money from Donald. With such a substantial sum at stake, if Donald couldn’t come up with it, he would inevitably turn to her for help.
Thanks to Axel’s recent surveillance, she was well–informed about Horace’s recent activities.
Horace furrowed his brows, scrutinized Angela, and suddenly smiled. “Fine, if you want me to divorce your cousin, I’ll agree to it, but it will cost you 24,000!”
“No problem. Once you bring up the divorce to Queenie, go through with the proceedings, and I’ll give you the money,” Angela responded promptly, her lips curling into a grin.
“Give me the money upfront, or there will be no divorce.”
Angela frowned, feigning hesitation. “What if you take the money and then refuse to

“What do you propose, then?”

With a flirtatious look, Angela suggested in a clear voice, “Since you’re in business, don’t you emphasize deposits in contracts? I’ll give you a 1,200 deposit first and transfer it to you now. Once you and my cousin arrive at the city hall and finalize the divorce, I guarantee you that the remaining money will be in your account immediately after you leave the city hall.”
Horace smacked his lips, furrowed his brows, and glanced at Angela, whose face displayed innocence. She’s just a naive girl who hasn’t experienced the real world yet, he thought. She’s so easy to manipulate.
He could agree to the,
divorce because he could easily devise a plan to remarry Queenie. After years of marriage, he knew her like the back of his hand. She was merely a beautiful ornament; a traditional woman who viewed her husband as her world, dedicated to managing the household.
In recent years, she had been compliant in everything. With a little effort, he could easily persuade her to remarry. Moreover, as a woman, as long as she had children and he could control them, he was sure that Queenie would allow him to do as he pleased.
Horace was brimming with pride, acting as if he already had Queenie under his control and Angela was his cash cow. “Well, I’ll trust you this time, considering you’re Queenie’s cousin,” he said and left, feeling at ease.
As he departed, Angela stared at his retreating figure, cursing him and his ancestors. After venting her anger, she took a deep breath and checked her bank balance to see how much money she had left.
Upon calculation, she found out that she only had a little over two hundred remaining. How could she make up
the remaining sum? She pondered and considered borrowing from Oliver. No, she could it anytime soon.
borrow money from a worker because she wouldn’t be able to repay.
In the end, she took out her phone, gritted her teeth, and dialed a number. Using the capitalist’s money for a good cause would be considered a good deed, wouldn’t it? This money could save a life, which was better than doing any charity.
As she tried to calm herself down, the call suddenly connected, and Jonathan’s deep, magnetic voice said, “Angela?”
“Jonathan, have you had lunch yet?” Angela asked sweetly with a sheepish laugh, behaving exceptionally obedient. In reality, she felt very diffident inside.

On the 15th floor of an office building, Jonathan set down the file in his hand and signaled for the secretary reporting to pause.
The secretary immediately fell silent, afraid to make a sound, thinking in amazement, Wow, just now the boss’s voice was so gentle, not at all the usual emotionless tone. He called her Angela… Is it a girl on the phone?
Jonathan replied softly. “I’ve already eaten, so you can go ahead and tell me what
Biting her lip, Angela wished that he could pretend to be polite just a little.
you need.”
“I don’t think it’s good that I’m asking you for money every time I open my mouth. Will it affect your mood?”
Her voice sounded aggrieved, which made Jonathan smile silently. “How much do
you need?” you
950, is that okay?” Angela asked nervously. “Don’t worry, I won’t borrow it for long, I’ll pay you back in installments! In six–No, in twelve–month installments. I’ll pay you back 79.16 cach month!”
In the darkness, Oliver was shocked, his eyes filled with confusion. Is this the spice between husband and wife? Angela, who was worth millions, borrowed over nine hundred from her husband, and in twelve–month installments, paying back 79.16 each month.
He didn’t understand the situation and reckoned that this was the reason he was still single. Taking out a small notebook, Oliver wrote down the first move in love tactics–borrow money, pay back in installments.
Angela lowered her head, kicking a small stone with her toe. On the other end of the phone, a man’s voice said warmly, “I’ll round it up for you. Let’s make it a hundred each month.”
Shocked, Angela thought, This is not rounding up to the nearest whole number! “Jonathan, to round it, shouldn’t you round it to eighty?”
Playing with his bracelet casually, he said, “I can make more money if I round it to a hundred.”
Angela couldn’t help but gasp in disbelief. This was the cunning nature of capitalists–they would even take advantage of passing dogs. But since she was in need, she gritted her teeth. and agreed, “Fine, I’ll pay you back a hundred every month!” After saying that, she hung up the phone with a snap. At that moment, the cold–heartedness of the capitalist overshadowed her gratitude.
Oliver had excellent hearing and heard the whole conversation. He took out a notebook and added a note–with interest.

Knowing that Oliver was nearby. Angela called out his name. Oliver finished writing the last note, hid the notebook and pen behind his back, and quickly appeared in front of her.
She took out her bankbook from her bag and handed it to him. “Will you please go to the bank and transter 1,200 to Horace Swine’s account?”
Oliver took the bankbook and asked curiously, “Mrs. Lawson, are you really giving away 24.000
With narrowed eyes, Angela smirked and replied, “Hmph, he doesn’t deserve it.”
