A Call That Changed Her Entire Life

Chapter 20 No Time To Play With You

"Mom, I've broken up with Jack."

"Errm...emm..." Mrs. Bai cried out helplessly," We've tried out every possible means, but all the money borrowed is merely a drop in the bucket; your dad will just be waiting for death if the medical fee isn't paid in full."

Emily got nervous, she promised," Don't worry, mom, I'll figure something out... I have 40 thousand at hand; I'm going to credit to your account first."

She had just graduated for nearly a year; her salary was not very high, but she saved every penny she could, and so she had 40 thousand by now to give to her parents.

Since her mother had deemed it unnecessary for her to return home to look after her father, the only thing Emily could do to help was to comfort her mother and send her money for her father's treatment. There was a sudden and unwelcome feeling of despair and bewilderment growing in her heart.

How was she going to come up with the money? But, it was her father's life that hung in the balance!

Emily scratched her head and finally remembered the drawing of the jewelry she designed which helped her win the championship... She wondered how much she could earn by selling the copyright.

However, she wasn't completely sure with that idea as well, as her reputation as a designer had been tarnished; it would certainly devalue the design. Fortunately, her parents weren't very active on social media, otherwise, the drama from the competition would give them more reasons to worry about her.

"It doesn't matter!" Emily put that jewelry design drawing up for sale online, even though she knew it was more likely to be a losing battle.

Just as expected, all the malicious comments suddenly surged up like the rising tide of water.

Emily forced herself not to read those reviews, but continued to look for work and kept applying. But so far it was all a dead end. Nevertheless, she received a private letter of intention from someone via the network where she was selling her design drawing.

She exchanged a few words with the interested party, without much hope, but surprisingly, without further delay the person purchased her drawing without any bargaining and haggling.

Emily was a bit shocked when she received a bank receipt message on her cell phone. She wondered whether she had asked for too little as her asking price of 200 thousand was accepted so quickly.

What if she asked for 800 thousand? She'd be able to pay for her dad's medical treatment by herself...
