Bumpkins Rich Handsome Husband

Chapter 75

“There’s…”

Just as Floch tried to figure out a reply, Elizabeth suddenly poinied out, “At the very least, there should be a minimum of three to five million for it to be acceptable.”

“Three to five…?” Rachel froze and her tears halted all of a sudden. She turned back to glance at Elizabeth, but she didn’t dare to say a word despite her anger. On the contrary, she went along and nodded with an apologetic smile. “You’re right, Old Mrs. Kings. You’re quite right indeed.”

However, Floch didn’t pay much heed and he instantly lied through his teeth. “Yeah, I think so too. There is about three million in there. The money is compensation for the poor girl.”

He was quite the two-faced person and at that moment, he was utterly tempted to wring Veronica’s neck.

“You…”

Just then, Veronica lifted her hand to take the card and she was just about to say something when Elizabeth stood up abruptly and walked toward her. “Veronica, give the card to me and I’ll check the balance for you.”

Elizabeth was very insistent and she clearly showed that she was on Veronica’s side. The former’s action was an obvious indicator that she didn’t trust the Larson couple as she snubbed them directly.

Meanwhile, Veronica was stunned at first and soon after that, a wave of gratitude flooded her. Elizabeth is too kind to me! I must have been an exemplary human being in my past life to have been granted this encounter with her in this current life.

“Mr. Randall, call and check for the balance on this card.” Elizabeth handed over the card to her servant by the side and muttered, “We must be clear with matters that involve money. Otherwise, it would be troublesome if anything got mixed up.”

“Yes, of course. You’re definitely right!” Floch hastily agreed but he couldn’t control himself from wiping off the beads of sweat on his forehead guiltily as he regretted his actions.

Meanwhile, the servant named Mr. Randall took the card from Elizabeth and walked off to find out the balance.
