I grabbed the water glass on the table and splashed it directly in Nathaniel’s face.
“It’s no big deal?!”
“She smashed a thousand-year-old antique to pieces, and you’re going to teach me a lesson on her behalf?”
Nathaniel wiped the water off his face, expressing grim.
“Vivian, stop talking nonsense!”
“It’s just a broken bracelet. Isn’t Emily repairing it?”
“Besides, Emily’s crying. What else do you want?”
She cried?
So her tears are worth 200 million? Can they save my life?
I smiled bitterly and picked up my phone.
“Fine. Then call the police. Emily trespassed and damaged the antique. Let the law decide the punishment.”
Nathaniel slammed my phone down.
“I won’t allow it! Do you want her to have a criminal record and ruin her life?”
“Vivian, be more generous! If everyone were as calculating as you, the world would have ended long ago!”
Unable to contain my anger, I raised my hand to slap him, but he grabbed my wrist.
“You’re saying all this just to get money? I’ll pay for Emily, okay?”
I gritted my teeth and stared at him.
He thinks paying money will solve this? How can a mere employee like him cover it?
In my previous life, I borrowed from friends and family, emptied my savings, and sold my studio to raise 200 million dollars, but I only transferred 500.
He had said,
“Baby, I’m saving money to support our family. I won’t let you suffer in the future.”
Will I not suffer?
But he gives Emily $2,000 a month for living expenses. Our five years of love are worth only 500?
When I had a heart attack and was loaded into the ambulance, he hugged Emily and whispered comforting words without even glancing at me.
Now he’s even more desperate for her, isn’t he?
Fine, I’ll grant his wish.
“Let’s break up. I won’t be your co-debtor.”
Nathaniel’s pupils shrank sharply.
“Break up? Just because of this little compensation?”
“This little bit?”
I almost laughed in anger, about telling him the amount.
Emily suddenly rushed over, holding the jade bracelet, completely stained with glue.
“Vivian, look! I fixed it!”
“Actually, restoring antiques isn’t difficult at all. It only took a few minutes.”
She winked at Nathaniel triumphantly.
“Nathaniel, am I super talented?”
Nathaniel chuckled.
“Yeah, our Emily is the best.”
Emily’s confidence soared after hearing his compliment. She pulled out her phone and started a live stream.
She held the glue-soaked jade bracelet directly in front of the camera.
