Chapter 66 Adeline's Trap

Steffen's heart skipped a beat!

He would be screwed up! He should not have said so much!

So, he quickly replied, "No! Mr. Riley used to be rich. We bought many things in advance. We've prepaid in full for the Kobe beef for the next fifty years. General can eat it until it dies!"

Hearing the word "dies", General fiercely bared his teeth at him. Then, it continued to eat the beef.

Adeline glanced at Curtis and asked, "Is what he said true?"

Curtis nodded.

"So, you have no money now?"

Curtis calmly responded, "I'm much poorer than before."

"It means that General can eat the beef because of your previous glory."

Curtis nodded, "Yes."

"You feed your dog with the Kobe beef transported by aircraft. But our children can only live a normal life because of your current economic condition. Your children's life conditions will be inferior to that of your dog. Am I right?"

Curtis was speechless.

Steffen applauded Adeline in his heart, thinking she was clever.

Seeing Curtis not reply, Adeline couldn't help secretly laughing.

Did he think she was stupid? She would be a fool if she still believed he was poor.

However, it was not surprising. Mr. Riley used to be influential in Prodiff. He was not an idiot, so he must have prepared before stepping down.

Adeline didn't bother to expose his lie. Anyway, she did not hate money. It would be better if she did not need to lead a poor life.

She sat at the dining table, opened the breakfast brought by Steffen, and was stunned.

"It looks similar to what the maid cooked here before."

Steffen nodded, "It's her who cooked it. Mr. Riley thinks her cooking breakfast here will affect your rest, so he asked her to cook in my apartment. And I'll bring it over every day."

Adeline felt warm in her heart. She had never expected Curtis to be so considerate.

She casually asked, "Where do you live?"

"I also live in this community. Mr. Riley bought me a small apartment here for the convenience of my coming over in the morning."

While speaking, Steffen felt a little awkward.

Curtis gave him a deep look, praising him for finally knowing who the boss was.

Adeline was stunned and said, "You don't need to explain. He must have bought it with the money he earned in the past."

Steffen dryly laughed, "Mrs. Riley, you're right."

After breakfast, Adeline left home. When she went out, she received a text message from Curtis, saying, "Honey, I was wrong."

While waiting for the elevator, she asked, "What's your mistake?"

He replied, "I confused what I think is poor with what you think is poor."

She was speechless.

He added, "I didn't lie to you. My wealth has greatly shrunk. I lost about half of it! I'm much poorer than before."

She was at a loss for words, thinking she should not have underestimated his wealth.

He continued, "But my money is enough for our children to live better than General."

She did not know what to say because he was much more eloquent than her. So, she walked straight into the elevator without replying to the messages.

After a while, her phone rang.

After Adeline answered the phone, a crying voice said, "Adeline, please forgive Logan. I was so sad last night that I couldn't fall asleep. It was all my fault! You can beat me and scold me. Please don't ignore Logan. "

Adeline was annoyed and snapped, "Jodie, can you stop pestering me? Don't change phone numbers to call me again. Even if I need to discuss the matter, I will talk with Logan instead of you. It's none of your business."

"No, Adeline! I can understand you are angry with me. I'll kneel for you, okay? I'll make a video call. After you answer, I'll kneel."

As soon as she finished speaking, Logan's voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Jodie, what are you doing? Why are you kneeling?"This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
