Chapter 850 Payment Notification
Jacob kindly reminded: [Ms. Lola Medici, you only have a few days left to make an effort, otherwise, it will be too late. Right now, you're like a discarded piece, and when to discard you is up to Mr. and Mrs. Medici.]
Lola: [So what do you think I should do?] She was genuinely anxious, otherwise, she wouldn't have asked.
Lola: [I've done everything I can, but it seems like nothing I do works.]
She told Jacob about all her efforts over the past few days.
Lola: [What do you think I should do]
No matter what she did, her parents ignored her. She was really out of options.
Jacob: [Ms. Lola Medici, have you noticed that everything you've done is either through a screen or from a distance? After all, Mr. and Mrs. Medici raised you for eighteen years, not eighteen days. If they see you showing weakness in person, they might change their minds.]
Lola: [You mean I should appear in front of them? But they want me to stay here and reflect on my mistakes. I'm afraid of making them even more upset.]
Jacob: [Mr. and Mrs. Medici said you should reflect here until you realize your mistakes, and now you know you were wrong.]
A light bulb went off in Lola's head.
Yes, if she shamelessly appeared in front of her parents, crying her heart out, they might forgive her.
After all, they used to spoil her so much.
Jacob reminded again: [Ms. Abella Medici just left with a backpack.]
Lola could hardly contain her excitement. Every time Abella went abroad or left home for a few days, she would carry a backpack.
Where was she going this time? As long as she wasn't home, it would be easier.
Jacob: [I heard she's going to Britonia. With her gone, Ms. Lola Medici, you can do as you please.] Jacob reminded her, feeling a bit embarrassed to guide her any further.
Lola: [Thank you, Jacob, I have an idea!]
Meanwhile, the topic of Blake and Summer's relationship was getting more and more heated, with no signs of cooling down.
Blake even retweeted a post titled #Top Ten Pieces of Evidence Blake and Summer Are Dating# on Twitter, saying: [I'll join this discussion too.]
Everyone was confused. Were they not together? Their behavior clearly suggested they were a couple!
[Is Blake afraid of affecting his career, so he doesn't dare to admit it?]
[If they are really together and Blake denies it, then he lacks responsibility!]
[So Summer is being wronged in this relationship.]
[I was worried that Summer's face under the mask wouldn't match Blake's.]
[What are you talking about? With Summer's talent and voice, she will always have a higher reputation than Blake. I even think Blake doesn't deserve Summer.]
The internet was divided into three camps: one supporting Blake, one supporting Summer, and one just watching.
Meanwhile, Blake received messages from Steven.
Steven: [Blake, why is Abella willing to wear the same shoes as you? Did you force her?"
Ethan: [Why are you and Abella wearing the same brand of clothes? Did you have to persuade her to wear them?]
Winston: [Can't you buy Abella a new in-ear monitor? Why make her use your old one? So stingy.]
Blake: [You guys are just jealous. Abella wore the same brand of clothes at the concert because she was helping out last minute. The dress was originally prepared for another female guest, and she wore it because she was helping out. She didn't have an in-ear monitor, so she used mine temporarily. The shoes were a gift from me a long time ago, and I didn't expect her to still be wearing them.]
He sent these messages to his brothers, who then fell into deep thought.
Were they not giving Abella enough pocket money, so she had to wear the same pair of shoes for so long?
Was she often busy making money, perhaps researching drugs or something, and in need of money?
Most importantly, would she be away during Easter and not stay home for the holiday?
With these thoughts, they suddenly had an idea.
Abella was already on her way to Britonia.
She closed her eyes and took a nap on the plane until her phone vibrated a few times. She looked and saw bank deposit notifications. The senders were Steven, Ethan, and Winston. Her three brothers had each transferred two million dollars to her.
‘What day is it today? Why are they sending me money for no reason?' She thought.
Soon, her phone vibrated again with messages from her brothers.
Steven: [Abella, Easter is coming up. I sent you some pocket money to buy new clothes, especially shoes.]
Ethan: [Abella, have you seen any shoes you like recently? Ethan sent you some money to buy a few pairs. Of course, buy some clothes and bags too. Easter is coming, and you should look beautiful.]
Winston: [Abella, I've been busy lately. Easter is coming, and I haven't had time to take you shopping. Here's a little something for you. Buy yourself a few pairs of shoes and treat yourself well.]
Why did her brothers specifically mention shoes? Was there something wrong with the shoes she was wearing?
She looked down and seemed to understand.
The shoes she was wearing were the same as Blake's, so her brothers thought she had been wearing them for too long, suspected she was financially struggling, and couldn't afford new shoes? Or were they trying to compete with Blake for her favor, wanting her to wear shoes related to them?
Whatever the reason, Abella found their behavior a bit childish but endearingly so.
Abella: [No need, I have plenty of shoes. The ones Mom and Dad gave me are still unworn.]
She remembered that on her first day back with the Medici family, Beckett had custom-made a hundred new outfits, a hundred pairs of shoes, and a hundred purses for her.
Later, Phillipe also gave her many more.
She really couldn't wear them all.
Abella was about to transfer the money back to her brothers when she received their messages.
Steven: [Don't you dare send it back, or I'll have my assistant transfer it back to you today. If you send it, he'll send it back until you accept it.]
Ethan: [Do you think I don't earn enough? Are you embarrassed to accept it? If you don't take the money, I'll be very sad and feel like I'm not capable enough, making you worry about my income at this age.]
Winston: [You must accept my gesture. Don't forget, I fully support you and Phillipe being together.]
Seeing that none of them would let her return the money, Abella replied: [Alright.]
She would do what she did last time and invest the money. Last time, she had already helped her parents and brothers make a lot of money, which she kept in different accounts. She planned to return it all to them when they got married.
