Quadruplets Unite: Mother's Words Are Law

Chapter 919 Adam Asks His Mother for Money

"One billion dollars," Benjamin said impassively.

Adam involuntarily gasped.

He had heard before that the Wonder Doctor might charge billions of dollars for her services.

When the Murphy family asked the Wonder Doctor to treat Evelyn's paralysis, they spent a billion dollars too.

This time, however, Adam was extremely reluctant to pay the amount.

He could have his condition cured for free. All he had to do was to hand over the full antidote to Emmeline.

He only had himself to blame for trying to trick Emmeline. That trick cost him a billion dollars!

The more Adam thought about it, the more frustrated he was. That triggered Living Agony, and the pain made him groan.

Benjamin suddenly heard the other party groaning. He guessed that the person must be suffering from the effects of Living Agony.

He really wanted to laugh, but he knew he could not.

"If you can't afford the consultation fees, I'd advise you to seek help elsewhere. The Wonder Doctor is very busy," Benjamin said and pretended to end the call.

"Wait!" Adam said hastily. "I'll pay! It's only a billion dollars, right?"


"Mm. I'll give you the bank account details soon. You can pay half the amount as a deposit, and the Wonder Doctor will meet you tomorrow."

"Alright! Just send me the details," Adam said.

Shortly after the call ended, Adam received a message containing the details of an offshore bank account.

He ordered his assistant to transfer 500 million dollars to that account.

There was still 500 million more to pay!

Now that he had lost the Imperial Palace, he did not have any means of making major transactions.

It was very hard for him to earn one billion dollars!

He thought for a while and made a call to Meriwether Mansion.

The butler answered the call. When he heard that Adam was the one calling, he said, "Mr. Adam, who are you looking for?"

Adam thought for a while and said gruffly, "My mother!"

"Of course. Madame Ryker has just come home from her weekly bridge gathering. I'll inform her."

"Mm."

A few minutes later, Julianna's voice was heard. "Adam? Is that you?"

"Yes, Mother," Adam said sullenly.

"You sound ill. What's wrong?" Julianna said.

"I did tell you I'm ill!" Adam huffed. "I wonder if you ever cared about me!"

"You're ill because you drank too much, right? That always happens to you, isn't it?" Julianna said.

"It's different this time. I'm really ill!" Adam said.

Julianna was shocked. "You're really ill? Are you okay? What illness is it?"
