Julie spoke in a feeble voice, and her eyes seemed to avoid direct contact. “It’s nothing. I just accidentally fell down the stairs.”

Julie thought of the injury on her face and lowered her head, covering most of her face with her hair. She did not want to show such an appearance in front of Mary.

“That was really careless of you. This is the first time I’ve seen someone injure herself so badly from falling down the stairs.” Mary said casually.

At this moment, Bob, who had just gone to call the doctor, walked in. When he saw Mary, he was stunned.

“Mary, are you also here to see Julie? I just arrived and came to check on her,” Bob said awkwardly.

Mary sneered in her heart. Why couldn’t she see through such an obvious lie in the past?

Bob’s coat was still by the bedside. He actually told her that he had just arrived. Only a fool like her past self would not have been able to see through such a lame lie.

“Oh, then I won’t disturb both of you.” After Mary finished speaking, she turned around and left the ward without waiting for Bob to say anything.

“Wait for me.” Bob ignored Julie, who was calling him from the hospital bed and ran straight after Mary.

“What else do you want?” Mary looked at Bob unhappily.

Bob put on a gentle smile. “I really have to thank you for this time. If it weren’t for you, I don’t know if I would still make it out alive.”

He did not mention anything about drugging Mary, nor did he mention why the elopement had failed.

In the past, as long as Bob showed a little happiness or gratitude, Mary would immediately throw herself into his arms. He thought that Mary must still have feelings for him. Otherwise, how could Gwyn let him off so easily?

But today, Bob’s idea fell through.

“So, you just want to express your gratitude with words?” Mary said with a mocking expression.

“Of course not. Mary, is there anything you want? I will grant anything you wish for.” The man looked at Mary’s graceful figure with lust. Thinking of how she dressed sexily that day, he couldn’t help but lick his lips.

In his eyes, Mary was a fool who chased after him. As long as he waved his hand, she would come over obediently. Even if Mary was a little angry now, as long as he coaxed her, it would be fine.

Seeing his disgusting gaze, Mary took a step back and said, “Then give me ten million.”

Bob was stunned by Mary’s request.

“Darling, stop joking. Please don’t be angry anymore. I promise I will treat you well from now on. I will take you somewhere far away.” Bob thought Mary was joking with him and even did something disgusting like holding her hand.

Mary shook off his hand and said contemptuously, “Is the life of Wilson’s young master only worth ten million? Are you just going to thank me with empty words?”

She deliberately emphasized ‘Wilson’. Mary knew that Bob, as an illegitimate child, had never had much status, so he had always proclaimed himself to be the son of the Wilson family.

It was also because Mary had poked at his sore spot that Bob gritted his teeth and said, “Of course, my life is worth that amount. I’ll do whatever that makes you happy.”

…

Ford and Dole looked at Mary, who was in a good mood. Both of them were speechless.

Looking at how much Gwyn doted on Mary, ten million was definitely nothing to Mary, but why did she have to take Bob’s money?

Dole pondered deeply. He didn’t think that Mary was short of money, at least not the ten million.

Dole considered Mary’s intense animosity towards Bob, and using his knowledge of women, he suspected that Mary had something up her sleeve. However, knowing that Mary always had a contingency plan, Dole found himself admiring her more and more. He thought it wouldn’t be a bad idea to serve as her bodyguard.

Mary had other plans for the money she had extorted from Bob. She intended to invest it and then scam him for even more money. The thought of it made her feel thrilled.

“To the stock exchange,” Mary instructed Ford.

Ford was even more suspicious. When he arrived at the trading center, something shocking happened.

The exchange was already packed with people. It was indeed crowded at this time of the morning.

Seeing Mary bring Ford in, the sharp-eyed staff of the trading center immediately smelled the scent of money. This woman was not ordinary at first glance, and she even looked a little gullible.

“Hello, Miss. How can I help…”

Mary lifted her chin, cutting off the staff member before they could finish. “You don’t have the authority to make decisions for a transaction worth tens of millions. Go and find someone who does.”
