Attracted By My Ex-wife

Chapter 525 A Complicated Situation

Luke furrowed his eyebrows and stared coldly at Alan. Suddenly, his behavior changed for the worst. He snorted loudly and rested his feet on the tea table in front of him. "I'm not leaving this place unless you give me some money."

It was clear that Luke had everything planned. After Cherry escaped, he had foreseen the future. Considering her status, she must have kept an infinite amount of gold and silver jewelry. Unfortunately, he couldn't find any in the house.

In fact, Cherry left as fast as she could. She might have taken some away, but it was safe to assume that she must have left behind most of it.

If Luke wasn't able to find the invaluable jewelry on his own, then there was only one possibility. That was Alan had taken them.

Luke had lost his job and he had yet to recover from his injury. Of course he wouldn't leave without getting anything.

"How much do you want?" Alan turned to Luke with a faint smile.

Suddenly, the latter's body stiffened under Alan's sinister gaze. Fortunately, Luke noticed his own abrupt change. So, he puffed up his chest and pretended to be unfazed by the tension. Cherry and Alan were nothing alike. In fact, he figured that Alan was just playing with him and that, in reality, he wouldn't even dare to kill a fly.

'Why would I be afraid of Alan?'

Luke completely forgot the reason why this man had been imprisoned.

"Five hundred thousand!" he said without batting an eye.

That wasn't even what ordinary people would save in half a lifetime! For a star like Cherry, however, she probably wouldn't even notice that sum of money was gone from her bank account.

Therefore, this task was a piece of cake. Alan wouldn't have any difficulty in getting that amount of cash.

But he had forgotten something major. He furrowed his eyebrows as he squinted his eyes at Luke. Cherry might be oblivious, but she was not a fool. How could she tell him the password without asking why he needed it in the first place? Alan had some money; he had just sold her jewelry!

Five hundred thousand, however, was just too much for him!

Besides, why would he willingly share the money he got of the sell-off with Luke? Cherry owed Alan, not him.

After all, Luke had nothing to complain about, since he had enjoyed some time with the beautiful star. Even if it was only for one night.

"No!" He denied directly, "I won't give you a penny!"

Luke's face contorted with anger due to Alan's refusal. "Do you really want to end up like this? Don't burn the bridge, Alan, otherwise I won't speak for my actions."

The latter could only sneer. He wasn't bothered at all by that ominous threat. "Really? What do you plant to do?"

Luke stood up abruptly and walked up to Alan with sinister eyes. "Give me the money, or I'll personally throw you in jail," he returned without batting an eye.

Alan snorted loudly. "And how will you do that?" he asked confidently.

Indeed, he was the one who used Luke to make Cherry suffer. However, he didn't force him to do so. What was more, what charge could Alan be convicted of?

As far as he knew, no one could be put in jail for that.
