Chapter 0051

When they returned home, Amber quickly got to work treating Susanne’s bruises. The slap on her

mother’s face not only hurt her mother,

but it also hurt her as her daughter, too.

Tears fell at the thought.

“Don’t cry. Amber. I’m fine.” Susanne wiped away Amber’s tears, having regained her composure after

some time.

If it were not for Amber and Alexander, the police would have truly locked her up in prison. That would

have been humiliating! She was already so old. If she were sentenced to prison, she would not want to

live any longer!

“Come, Alex. I’d like to talk to you.” Susanne put on some medication and entered her bedroom. She

waited for Alex to enter before closing

the door.

“Mom, today’s incident is all my fault. I didn’t explain the card’s details to you,” Alexander admitted his

Susanne looked at Alexander with a complicated gaze.

The manager told her that the card had at least 150 million dollars. Sure, Susanne supposed Alexander

had a substantial amount of money after he bought the car, but she did not expect him to be that

Alexander smiled. He knew he could no longer hide from her. “I was homeless five years ago, and the

company I founded was taken from me, too. I almost starved on the streets. It was Amber who rescued

me. She made me who I am today.”

He took a deep breath as tears welled up in his eyes. “I left for five years because I wanted to make a
