As expected, when Casper answered the phone, it was Hilda on the call.
She sounded gentle and caring, which was unlike her usual arrogant self.
She was speaking in a low and soft tone.
If Casper didnât know about her personality beforehand, he wouldâve mistaken her as a kind and loving mother.
âHello, Casper. Iâm Ameliaâs mother. Well, would you like to meet with Amelia? You guys should communicate more often, you know? Honestly, I really like you.â
Casper found her words ironic. Keeping his composure, he replied, âMs. Hilda, do I need to pay two hundred thousand every time I want to see Amelia? If thatâs the case, Iâll never be able to see her again.â
Casper added, âYou should stop trying to scam me, Ms. Hilda. If I were rich, I wouldnât have pursued your daughter. There are a plethora of women that I can choose from who are way more stunning than her. Iâm not stupid, you know? I would rather spend my time doing something more meaningful than this.â
He paused for a while before continuing, âYou should show me some sincerity if you really want me to meet her. If not, I believe our conversation here is over. Amelia simply isnât worth sacrificing this much for. By the way, let me give you a piece of adviceâ cupidity will only bring harm and destruction.â
After hearing Casperâs statement, Hilda was agitated.
Heâs right. A billionaire wouldnât have paid two hundred thousand to see that abhorrent daughter of mine, to begin with.
Hilda was cognizant that her daughter wasnât up to standards.
She then cajoled, âCasper, regarding the incident last time, it was all my fault. Iâm sorry about that.â
Casper was unperturbed. He remained taciturn as he waited for Hilda to continue.
What else can I say after apologizing? Hilda was gritting her teeth.
This boy is so damn irritating!
With no other options, Hilda added on, âCasper, I promise you that I wonât make the same mistake again. You donât have to worry about that anymore.â
Ms. Hilda felt like her heart was bleeding as she said that.
After hearing those words, Casper finally responded, âWell, all right then. Let me thank you in advance, Ms. Hilda. Since Iâll be coming over more frequently from now on, I hope youâll be kind to me.â
Enraged, Hilda was about to smash her phone onto the ground.
Realizing that her phone was still new, she held back from doing so.
Meanwhile, Cody was by Hildaâs side as he listened to their conversation. It seems like Casper will be quite troublesome to deal with.
Heâs not one of those incompetent rich kids.
That being said, I donât think heâs as smart as he thinks he is.
Just as Cody was about to snatch over Hildaâs phone to give Casper a piece of his mind, Hilda stopped him from doing so by shaking her head.
Although Hilda was getting riled up from her conversation with Casper, she was able to calm herself down after seeing Codyâs face.
Gazing at the screen of her phone, Hilda suddenly seemed so composed.
âOf course. Youâre also welcome here. Iâll be happy to have you,â she replied with a soothing voice.
Upon hearing her words, Casper felt a shiver up his spine.
She is such a hypocrite! That is quite terrifying.
Whatever! The most important thing is that Iâm free to visit Amelia now.
Having achieved his goal, Casper gave Hilda a terse response and hung up the phone.
Ugh! Finally, I can have some peace of mind. Her voice is so annoying, not to mention her very presence.
Meanwhile, Hilda had a delighted look on her face.
She was rather proud of herself for conquering Casper.
It felt like she was the predator and Casper was the prey. Now that I have you in my claws, I wonât let you get away.
Iâll make sure to torture you slowly.
Sorry Casper, but letting you go unscathed just isnât part of the plan.
Seeing the sinister smile on his motherâs face, Cody put on a menacing smile as well.
Mother must have a plan in mind. It looks like we will be living in luxury after this.
I donât care what methods we use as long as we get rich.
Cody was willing to do anything for money.
