Chapter 175 The Money Tree
The driver didn't care and called his coworkers down from the van, after which the group of men
shuffled to the back of the vehicle. Camilaâs lips quivered uncontrollably when she imagined the size
of the money tree that needed to be carried down by six to seven men.
Out of curiosity, she followed behind the delivery workers to peek.
Aside from her, all the guests at the studio were busy peeking into the van, curious to see the
enormous gift that needed to be moved by a group of men. When Camila finally landed her eyes on
the money tree, she couldn't stand it anymore. Wait! This ain't no money tree! No, technically, it's a
money tree. The âtreeâ was a gigantic safe that measured 1.8 meters in height and 1.2 meters in
width. One side of the cube was made of glass to show the contents. A money tree was placed in
the case, and it was not an average plant. It was literally a money tree with heart decor, gold coins,
and diamonds hanging on its branches. She only needed to take one look at it to feel dizzy. Camila
felt that she was struck by lightning, therefore she stood frozen on the spot. The workers from the
delivery company appeared more composed than her. Not only did they not rob the item, they even
managed to deliver it in perfect condition, which was surprising to her. When everyone saw the
money tree, they could not help but draw a sharp breath. âWhat the heck? Who splurged on that?â
âLook, that is the real money tree. Say, the diamonds and gold coins on the branches must be
genuine, aren't they?â
âShould be fake. I mean, who would put genuine gems and gold on the tree and place it in a
transparent case to show off?â âI think if it's fake, there will not be a safe. Even the huge safe must
be expensive.â âNo matter how expensive the safe is, it's worth less than the tree itself. Even if the
diamonds are fake, the design of this tree must have cost tens of thousands.â People were chatting
in amusement, but Silas was frowning deeply. He suddenly felt that his ads over the city were not as
explosive as the money tree gift. This surprise gift triumphed over his efforts and stole his limelight.
Who was the person behind this gift? Camila sure had a lot of connections. At the same time,
Camila was also dying to know the identity of the sender, whose choice of gift frustrated her. Not
bothering to check the time zone difference, she took her phone and made an international call.
When the call was picked up, she
demanded, âTell me that the money tree was not from you, was it?â A sleepy male voice was heard
from the other end. âCamila? You received it?â She was speechless at the truth. âWait, it was really
you? Do you intend to send it to the robbers or me?â The man sounded like he struggled to sit up,
and his voice returned to a casual tone. "Of course it's for you!â âWe all know that you're a famous
doctor. Those who don't might suspect that you're a diamond exporter from Africa! Why did you
send a gigantic gift? Aren't you worried about theft and robbery?â âDidn't I place it in a safe for
you?â âOh, wow, thanks a lot!" Camila took a deep breath. âBut why did you design a transparent
side? Are you tempting the thieves or testing the features of your safe?â âDon't worry. I've tested it
before. The safe has an automatic alert system. The money tree won't go missing. If the alert is
triggered, you just have to enter your birthday as the passcode on the remote control.â Camila went
silent from astonishment. The man chuckled. âAlright. If you think it's jarring, you can sell it off. I just
wanted to express my good wishes. To be honest, I had wanted to send you some rose tea for
beauty and health purposes, but your juniors kept complaining that the rose tea looked stingy and
wanted me to buy something more luxurious. I was out of ideas, so I picked the money tree!â
Camila was both tickled and frustrated at the same time. âYeah, you're indeed inhumane! You're
really planning to make me lose sleep to keep an eye on that thing all day, aren't you?"
