She took a piece of tissue and wiped her lips, pretending to be calm.

"Why are you stopping me?"

“I’m in urgent need of money now, I have no other choice."

Ethan’s eyes smoldered with anger.

"How much money do you want? I’m your husband.If you’re going through any problems, why can’t you tell me? Why would you do something like that?"

Janet had been short of money ever since she was a child.

Her words silenced Ethan.

"Let’s calm down first and then solve this problem."
