As a result, I soon discovered that she didn't answer or reply to my calls and text messages.
When I went to her house, the door was closed.
On the third day, she blocked and unfollowed me on various social media.
Just when I thought Saya's family was about to disappear from my world.
On the morning of the fourth day, she suddenly added me on WhatsApp again.
Meanwhile, her attitude changed a lot.

[Honey, I miss you.]
[You finally contacted me. Where are you?]
[I'm shopping at Avalon Mall, buying daily necessities for our child. Can you pay for me?]
Many payment links then were sent, but only more than three thousand dollars was for baby products.
Most of them were payment links for luxury brands, such as Hermès and Chanel.
There was a ZIPPO lighter, and it was a limited edition!
I wondered why she bought a lighter.
After all, she didn't smoke.
All of them cost more than 400 thousand dollars in total.
"Why did you buy a lighter? You don't smoke!"
"It's for my dad. He always wanted it."
I didn't pay in full but clicked on the payment link for the baby products.
Also, I paid for a not-so-expensive Hermès bag and a lighter.
After the payment was completed, Saya disappeared again.
It turned out that the Rice family was treating me as a cash machine!
No one could take my money so easily without paying the price.
The Rice family was no exception.
The next day, I brought 300 thousand in cash and met with Dalli, Saya's brother-in-law.
I should understand what they were planning.
Dalli had been married into the Rice family for 10 years, and his life was miserable.
After drinking two glasses of liquor, he began to complain.
At this time, although I had predicted the Rice family's intentions, what Zoe had done disgusted me even more deeply.
Dalli seemed to be almost driven crazy by the family over the years.
Two years ago, he was bewitched by Zoe and raised more than four million for her to invest in second-hand houses.
As a result, the epidemic hit. Although he acted in time, he suffered a net loss of more than one million.
By comparison, Zoe seized the chance to make a fortune.
Helplessly, Dalli and his family had to live in Zoe's house.
However, no one in the Rice family liked him, and everyone treated him like a servant.
Tessa even would call him a loser.
