Chapter 898 A Scammer

When Matthew and Sasha came back home that night, they saw Helen on the sofa, spacing out.

That afternoon, Tate and Minerva asked her out and tried to persuade her into lending them ten million.She kept refusing, but the siblings knelt before her in the end. She couldn’t keep refusing, so she agreedto transfer the money to them. But when she came back and realized what she had done, she wasterrified. After all that had happened, she knew Minerva and Tate couldn’t be trusted, so she was worriedthat something might go wrong.

“What’s wrong, Mom?” Sasha asked, puzzled.

Helen trembled, but she waved her down. “I-I’m fine.”

Sasha didn’t believe it. She doesn’t look fine.

A while later, Helen couldn’t take it anymore. “Sasha, can you come here for a second? I need to ask yousomething.”

Sasha sat beside her. “What’s the matter, Mom?”

Helen took a deep breath and whispered, “I-I have a friend who’s handling a new project recently. If hesucceeds, he’ll make hundreds of billions with it. But now he needs money to continue the project’sdevelopment, and he needs a few million. What do you think about this investment? I… I need youropinion.”

A frown creased Matthew’s forehead. “That’s a scammer, Helen.”

Sasha nodded. “What kind of project is it? Did you hear it from him? If the project can make that muchmoney, he’d have investors lining up to fund it. He doesn’t need your money, unless he’s a scammer.This is how they scam people out of their money. Don’t fall for it.”

Helen looked horrified. “B-But he’s a foreigner…”

Sasha snickered. “So? Doesn’t mean they won’t lie. Remember my friend, Penny? Her foreigner fiancésaid he’s Carlson Group’s president, but Tiger exposed him. Turns out he’s just a tutor at a kindergartenunder Carlson Group. That’s a big fat liar. Don’t just trust those foreigners blindly, Mom. We’re aspowerful as them now.”

All the color drained from Helen’s face.

Sasha started panicking when she saw her mother looking like that. “Mom, don’t tell me you’ve given himthe money?”

Helen quickly waved her down. “Nonsense. I didn’t do anything like that. This is a big deal. Of course I’lltalk it through with all of you. I’m not that stupid.”

Sasha heaved a sigh of relief. “That’s good to hear. Don’t fall for their lies, Mom. Just run the pharmacyand leave everything else to us.”

Helen nodded and told them she was feeling unwell before hurrying away to her bedroom.

After Matthew saw her off, he whispered, “We might be too late, Sasha. Helen has probably given themoney away.”

Sasha’s face fell. “What? Impossible. W-Why didn’t she talk it through with us? No. I have to ask herabout it…”

Matthew stopped her. “Don’t. She won’t admit to it now, and you might start a fight.”

That made her panic. “What should we do, then? This is a few million we’re talking about. We can’t justignore it.”

Matthew gave it some thought. “She doesn’t have that much money in hand, but the pharmacy does. Ifyou want proof, we can check the pharmacy’s accounts tomorrow.”
