Chapter 599 Roy took out ten taels of silver and handed it to Isla in front of the camera. "This is from the Emperor. Be grateful to him. We have food and drink thanks to him." Isla looked at the money anxiously.
Wynter knew that Isla needed the money. She looked at Isla.
"Do you want it? You can have it. | won't object to you taking it." She looked serious as she spoke. "But what | want to tell you is, you might lose more by taking this money because you don't know what the person giving you the money wants." Isla bit her lip. She wanted it. Her mother was sick, and her father needed cigarettes.
They all needed money.

saying they would bring her sister back after taking a photo.
But her sister had been gone for seven days and still hadn't returned! While Isla and her mother were worried every day, her father had just gone to the tobacco shop with ten taels of silver.
Isla waited for her sister every day.
No! She didn't want this dirty money! She just wanted her sister back! "I don't want their dirty money!" Even though the fear in Isla's eyes was evident, there was also hatred within them.
She was proud and unyielding. Perhaps one didn't need to be an adult to know what one should and and shouldn't do. One should hold onto principles even in the face of strong temptation.
"Did you hear that?" Wynter raised her eyebrows, placed the
money back in Roy's hand, and said bluntly," Get lost." Roy had never been so humiliated. They were in an era dominated by the Foplyans. He had never been yelled at like this before, especially in front of Foplyans! He could still endure it even if the Quinnells and the Whitmans looked down on him.
But Wynter was just a commoner! Rory gave him a warning look. Hence, Roy dared not reveal anything through his expressions. He bowed and stepped aside to let Wynter and Isla pass.
Although the onlookers hadn't dared to come forward to stop the et Foplyans, they were all watching Wynter with expressions of incredulity and inexplicable
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThey were poorly educated and couldn't understand why a lady who had dared to be disrespectful to the Foplyans had been able to leave unscathed! The more they watched the scene, the more they admired Wynter.
If they retreated and showed any signs of weakness, the Foplyans would bully them to death and even treat them worse than a dog.
Only when they were stronger would the Foplyans dare not tread on them.
Yet, there were some people who analyzed it more deeply. For instance, the people in charge of the Youth Daily deliberately
bumped into Wynter as she walked by.
"Turn left up ahead, go to Peace Hotel in the east, and find the president of the Chamber of Commerce from the Quinnell family. Someone will help you.
The eyel? Foplyans won't keep their word. You must be quick!"
