NovelEnglishBonnie didn't miss out on the subtle triumph in Billy's eyes. Her lips curled slightly as a hint of coldness flashed in her eyes.
'I knew it. Billy isn't skind-hearted soul. I should tread more carefully when I'm dealing with him.' She pretended to be deeply moved when she looked at him. "Thank you, Billy. I mean it. There's hope for my mom now." He stuffed the bank card in her hand and said, "This is but a tiny favor. Take the money and settle your mom's medical bills. If everything turns out fine, I'm going to hire the most famous doctor in Yale to treat her." 'I'm talking about the tests I've prepared for him, of course. After all, Barrett's talent is priceless. I could spend millions on him and still feel that it's worth it.

She had never had to say something like this to anyone. After all, she had always stood at the top of the food chain everywhere she went. She needed no pity or mercy from anyone, nor did she have to bow down to anyone. "You don't have to repayor anything. Just show up and do everything I tell you to do when I need it." "Roger that, Billy. You've donea huge favor. I promise I will do anything you askto do!" She responded firmly.
When she looked at him, her eyes were filled with gratitude, as if she would go to the depths of hell to fulfill his request.
Meanwhile, Billy was very satisfied with her response. "Wonderful. I feel much better after what you said." 'It took merely one million dollars to make Barrett so grateful tothat he'd jump in the lake if I ordered him to. What a sweet deal.' "Um... Can I be excused back to my room, so I can transfer the money to my mom? She can pay the hospital I'm worried that the doctor will stop all treatment if we drag the payment for too long." She wore an Ov expression of worry and urgency as she spoke.
He read her expression and decided she wasn't faking it. So, he agreed to it immediately.
"Alright. I can understand how anxious you are now. So, go ahead and do it now! I'll have Francesco fetch you from your room when dinner's ready." She relaxed a little and scurried back to her room with the bank card.

Billy watched her leave, a glint of light in his eyes. Francesco saw it and couldn't help but walk over to his leader and ask, "What are you looking at, Mr. Billy? Are you suspecting that Barrett lied to you?"
He shook his head in response. "Barrett doesn't seem like a liar. I'm looking at him because'm thinking about the best way to maximize his talents. It would be best if he could develop a chip that's better than the one the Nidhogg created. "If that future should cto pass, then I'll be able to realize my dream of ruling over every international organization someday."
"You're having such high hopes for him, Mr. Billy. What are you going to do if he turns out to have sulterior motives?" Francesco's voice was thick with concern. Billy gave him a sharp glare. "Do you think I need your advice in dealing with him? When have I been wrong about a person?" Francesco hunched and said hastily, "Of course, you've never been wrong about anyone. However—" Before he could finish, Billy cut him off.
"That's enough. I have no interest in listening to your crap. Get back to work now!" X
