Chapter 0013

“But Tina, could you get that bangle back?” Patricia asked.

That bangle indeed had healing properties.

“Mom, it’s just a dirty bangle. I’ll get another one for you. Here’s a million dollars. Take it. The passcode is my birthday. Go and buy whichever bangle you want for yourself. And use the balance to buy supplements for Justin.”

Tina then handed a bank card with a million dollars in it to Patricia.

“Tina, you’re such a wonderful daughter!”

As soon as Patricia heard that there was a million dollars in the bank.

card, she instantly forgot about the bangle. After all, nothing was

more important than money!

“Mom, we’re a family, after all,” Tina said gently.

Patricia sighed. She pretended to look incredibly sad as she said, ” Actually, I’m not that worried about the bangle. I’m more worried about you.”

“About me?”

Tina was stunned.

“That’s right. I’m worried that the jerk will come and bother you aga

Patricia continued with her act. “When he came to collect his thing today, he even swore that he would never let you off that easily. H said that he wouldn’t stop bothering you until you agreed to get back together with him or paid him ten million dollars to stay away!”

“That bastard. How dare he speak like that?”

Tina’s face turned green with anger.

“Tina, he even dared to threaten me and beat up your brother. What else would he not dare to do? That’s why, Tina, you need to confirm things with Mr. Jones as soon as possible. That way, that bastard would finally give up on you!”

Patricia wanted to take advantage of the situation and confirm their relationship as soon as possible.

Coincidentally, Wayne happened to be there, too.

“That’s right, Tina,” Justin said, joining his mother’s chorus.

If his sister married into the Jones family, he would be able to brag about it to his friends for years!

“Mom! How could you say such a thing in front of Mr. Jones?” Tina’s

face was full of embarrassment.

“I’m just worried about you, Tina. I’m worried that you’d lose someone as good as Mr. Jones if you hesitated any longer.”

There was an ulterior motive to Patricia’s words. She turned to

address Wayne and said, “Mr. Jones, thank you for taking care of Tina all this time. We’re sorry that you had to witness such a scene today

“Don’t worry about it, Aunt Pat. Sean just doesn’t know what’s goo for him,” Wayne replied graciously.

“Mr. Jones, what do you think of Tina?” Patricia asked.

“I think Tina is a wonderful person. She’s kind, gentle, and very capable,” Wayne said.

“Haha! That’s good to hear. In that case, Mr. Jones, should we just

set a date for the wedding? That way, Sean will stop bothering Tina,” Patricia said with a satisfied smile on her lips.

Wayne chuckled coldly in his heart.

He saw right through Patricia, of course.

This cunning woman was just interested in his power and riches sol that she’d have an easy life.

But, he didn’t deny that he was attracted to Tina’s body and capability.

She’d taken only five years to build up her business from scratch, expanding it into a corporation worth billions of dollars. She was even chosen as one of the top ten outstanding entrepreneurs in Skye City. That was enough proof of her capabilities.

Most importantly, her company was also working with many huge corporations in Salem City. This was what the Jones family was the most interested in!

He was going to take advantage of Tina’s upper hand in the business world and expand his family’s power.

After getting married to her, he would have a very good reason to merge his company with Tina’s. And once the merger was completed, he would be able to take over the business dealings with all the top businesses in the world.

Tina was just a pawn he could get rid of whenever he wanted to!

He was pretty sure that he’d be sick of her by then anyway.

Wayne’s ambition wasn’t just to conquer Skye City. He was an esteemed young master of a prestigious household name-of course, he would never settle for a divorced woman as his wife.

His target was Salem City or Ace City. He was going to replace another young lady of equal prestige and status there.

Tina was nothing but a stepping stone in his plans.

Otherwise, she wasn’t even worth his investing so much of his time in

her
