Chapter 902 A Pro Actor

Minerva and Helen cried in each other’s arms, regretting everything they did. It took them a long time tocalm down, and finally, Helen sighed. “Now, what should we do? It’s ten million, not ten dollars. How am Isupposed to tell James about this?”

Minerva had an idea. “Aunt Helen, Liam is managing a construction company, so he must have a lot ofmoney. He probably won’t ask you to return the ten million soon. Why don’t you ask him to give it to youso you can tide things over. As for me… Tate and I will start working and pay you back once we makeenough money.”

If anyone else was there, they’d know Minerva was just lying. After all, it’d take the both of them a fewlifetimes to make ten million.

Helen, however, looked at her lovingly. “Oh, you silly girl. That’ll be too much for you and Tate.”

Minerva sighed. “This is our fault, so of course we’ll have to pay you back. I’m sorry, Aunt Helen. I reallywant to kill myself, but I can’t do it. Not when I know you’ll have to shoulder this debt alone. Don’t worry,Aunt Helen. Tate and I will save up and pay you back no matter what.”

Touched, Helen patted Minerva’s hand. “Don’t blame yourself, Minerva. I… I’ll try to come up withsomething. Worst-case scenario, James will give me an earful, but we’re already married for a long time.He… probably won’t chase me away. Don’t put too much pressure on yourself. Look livelier, okay?”

Helen calmed the siblings down and left, looking worried.

The moment she left, Minerva and Tate started smiling. “Told you. Just act innocent, cry a bit, say you’lljump off a building, and she’ll start to pity you. And now she doesn’t even want us to give her the moneyback anymore.” Tate laughed.

Minerva had a smug look on her face. “I did well, right? Cried a lot thanks to the eye drops I put inbeforehand. Couldn’t have fooled her otherwise.”

Tate gave her a thumbs up. “You rock, Minnie!”

Minerva let out a chuckle, but then she sighed. “Goddammit. I didn’t see that one coming. Never thoughtPeter’s a scammer. And he scammed me out of seven million! Why did I even fall for him in the firstplace?”

Tate spat. “Foreigner my foot. He’s worse than your regular Cathay guy. You shouldn’t put your trust inthem from now on, Minnie.”

Minerva waved him down. “No, Tate. You can’t make a hasty generalization about them. Peter’s oneperson. Foreigners are still better in general. Besides, it’s all Cathay’s fault he turned out this way. Heused to be a good guy. It’s the people here who led him astray.”

Tate pouted. He didn’t think his sister’s reasoning was logical. “Enough talk about him, Minnie. He’salready gone.”

Minerva gritted her teeth. “But he scammed me out of seven million!”

“So? It’s not your money. It’s the Cunninghams’. Why are you so angry about it? Besides, we still havethree million left.”
