NovelEnglishChapter 1955
Ellen took his arm, saying, “Let’s go.” Olivia's eyes were full of bitter resentment as she followed the couple with her gaze. She
looked back and scolded her husband, saying, “Connor, why did you give her the money so readily just now?! Now we're not
getting anything!”
Jared took Ellen to a bank nearby. After confirming that there was indeed 7.5 million in the bank account, he had the amount
transferred to her account immediately.
However, Ellen wasn't delighted by the sight of the phone notification showing the account balance. Instead, her heart was heavy,
and her feelings were complicated.
“It's still early, so lettake you somewhere for fun. Let's go!” Jared said to her in an attempt to make her happy. Ellen nodded
before getting into the car with him.
Meanwhile, Olivia and Connor quarreled as they left the cafe. In the end, Connor left first by cab in a fit of rage, leaving Olivia at

After getting the phone call, Selena hurriedly took a cab here to pick Olivia up. When Olivia told her about their family’s situation,
she immediately got anxious. So, my family is penniless now? “Mom, have you estimated how much money we have left?”
Olivia's head was throbbing at this moment; she felt there was no hope left in her life. “If we go back and sell sfurniture, we
can probably raise around 15,000.”
Selena replied, “Ellen’s so heartless! Does it make her happy to leave us homeless?!” She was filled with hatred for Ellen. Now that
Ellen’s gotten the 7.5 million, she’s definitely going to be very pleased with herself in the future! After all, she just turned into a
rich lady in an instant.
Olivia said, “She wouldn't have been so cruel to us if she had a conscience. | pleaded with her today to let us keep 750,000, but
she wasn’t even willing to give us a single dime!
She's really hungry for money.” She thought that what Ellen had said at the end of their conversation was just an excuse she had
made to refuse to give them the money.
At this moment, Selena’s feelings were also complicated, because she had a big secret that she dared not tell Olivia. It disgusted
her that Connor had another family outside of his marriage to her mother.
She wondered how much money the mistress had gotten from her father with her amazing capabilities. She must've gotten a lot of
money from Dad. Perhaps they're even better off than us! “Mom, you have to keep an eye on the money at home. Don’t let Dad
spend the money out there.”
Olivia replied, “How much money could your dad spend, anyway? He only spends money on drinking tea apart from smoking.” She
was still not alerted even now. In her mind's eye, Connor was frugal despite his incompetence. His monthly allowance wouldn't
exceed 150 apart from the money he spent on gas.
“Mom, you have to control the purse strings of our family. We can’t let Dad do that anymore,” Selena insisted vehemently.
Olivia asked, ‘Lena, | gave you 15,000 before. How much money do you have left now?” At this moment, she hoped that Selena
would spend more thriftily.

However, Selena had always been a spendthrift since she was little, so how much money could she save? She had spent several
thousand in: the blink of an eye while staying at a five-star hotel over the past few days. “Mom, | don’t have much left. | have only
about 3,800 left in my bank account.”
“How could you spend so much money in just a few days?!” Olivia's head instantly throbbed again in anger. ‘You can’t spend
money like this anymore. Our family can’t afford to let you be so extravagant anymore. We all have to live a frugal life from now
on.”
Selena felt very displeased as she listened to this. Olivia had never said such things before, but now she reprimanded her like this.
When they returned to the Aguirre Residence, Connor was already packing their belongings. He had rented a three-bedroom house
from a friend and was trying to move to a new house tomorrow.
However, Olivia protested the instant she heard that the house was in Lockwood Village, where she had lived before. “It's so out of
the way! How are we gonna go shopping in the future?!”
“How are you gonna go shopping when we've got no money anymore? It's nice enough that we have a place to stay and have food
to eat at the moment!” Connor barked at her.
Olivia was stupefied for a moment. “Can’t you rent someplace else instead? We can’t even hold our heads up if we move back and
run into someone we know.”
