Chapter 1740
Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort
âHe must have lied to me! He is such a liar!â
Francesca was fuming mad. She had handed the two sacks of money over to the bankers and let them count while she talked to her kids over the phone.
After that, she took her ATM card and left. She didnât even bother to ask how much she had.
Francesca didnât realize she was paid peanuts up till this day.
I thought something was wrong with the internet banking system just now. But now that I think about it, I must have been deceived by Zachary.
âZachary Nacht!â
Francesca ran down furiously to get even with Zachary. However, Zacharyâs Rolls-Royce had sped off by the time she reaches the porch.
She stomped her feet in anger and cursed through gritted teeth. âYouâre a big fat liar!â
âCalm down, Francesca. Tell me whatâs going on. Iâll deal with it.â
Charlotte chased after her and coaxed.
âOh, right. His wealth is shared with you since youâre a couple. You can deal with itâ¦â
Francesca led her upstairs and said vehemently.
âIâm being reasonable here. Let me show you the medical bills. Iâve recorded it all down everytime I treat your husband when he was on his death bed. He even stamped it with his thumbprint. This is the money that saved his life. He canât just take advantage of me like that.â
âThatâs right. I wonât let that happen. Iâll pay you the money.â
Charlotte said airily. However, she was stunned when she saw the bill. âF-Fourteen billion?â
âYeah.â Francesca pointed at the bill and explained each item to her. âThese are his medical fees. These are the fees I charged for saving his life. These areâ¦â
âI couldnât be bothered to keep track anymore toward the end and suggested that he pay with half his wealth. He agreed but only gave me five million. He even lied to me. This is totally unacceptable!â Francesca added.
âYouâre right. He shouldnât have done that. I apologize on his behalf.â Charlotte felt that it was a sticky situation.
âBut I donât have that much money right now, Francesca. How about I give you part of it first. Iâll deal with him when he returns.â
âI am right about you, Charlotte. Youâre a reasonable woman, unlike your husband and your brother.â
Francesca grabbed Charlotteâs hand and said excitedly, âThis is my bank accountâs number. You can transfer it to me.â
âOkay.â Charlotte transferred the three billion she had on hand to Charlotteâs account and even threw in some jewelry.
âFrancesca, this ruby necklace is worth one billion. This black diamond bracelet is worth 80 million. I have yet to appraise the Heart of the Ocean, but itâs probably worth a few billion. You can have it firstâ¦â
âCharlotte, youâre such a darling. I love you so much!â
Francesca wrapped her arms around Charlotte excitedly and kissed her on the cheek.
âFrancesca, these jewelries are worth a lot of money. Their value might even appreciate in the future. You must take good care of it and donât lose it.â
Charlotte held onto Francescaâs hand and said solemnly, âAlso, I will send someone to escort you back to Erihal. You must work things out with Danrique once you meet himâ¦â
âOkay. I promise you.â
Francesca was overjoyed. She held on to the jewelry and asked, âCharlotte, how much is the pink diamond ring you gave me when we first met worth?â
â70 million at the momentâ¦â
â70 million?â Francesca smiled happily. âThen all these add up to more than ten billion.â
âYou can say so.â Charlotte nodded. âItâs a lot of money. Take good care of it.â
âHaha. Iâm rich now. Danrique wonât dare look down on me ever again. Haha. Iâll rub it into him if he ever dares look down on me again.â
Charlotte was speechless.q
