Chapter 881
Mason nodded and looked at Father Ben again. "Father Ben, Alexander really wants to see you. Can we arrange it for the next time...?"
"Alright." Father Ben gently wiped the tears off Mason's face. "Finish your watermelon, and stop crying. The Bible hasn't been finished yet. You need to continue today."
Mason fell silent, feeling even more crying.
Father Ben said, "When you finish, you can give it to Alexander the next time he visits."
Mason was puzzled.
"These are the Bibles he started copying as a child." Father Ben sighed softly. "They have been here for so long. It's time to return them to him."
Although Stella was full, she stuck to the plan and went to the coffee shop, packing up what was suitable for two portions.
Good friends shared delicious food!
Alexander also let Stella do as she wished.
"Preston said he checked on Wyatt yesterday," Alexander said as he drove, "Wyatt's issue may not be small, but it's manageable with some adjustments."
"Did Preston take any money?" Stella cut to the chase.
Alexander smiled. "I didn't ask about that."
Stella immediately called Preston.
Coincidentally, Preston was with Wyatt.
Wyatt looked a bit better but still pale. He glanced at the screen showing Stella's call.
Preston stood up and said, "Mr. Durham, excuse me for a moment. I need to take a call from my family!"
With that, he went straight out.
"Stella, what's up?" Preston asked.
"Did you charge Wyatt for the treatment?" Stella asked seriously.
Preston hesitated for a moment, uncertain whether to admit to charging or not.
In fact, they hadn't discussed payment.
"No... no..." Preston answered honestly.
"How could you not charge?" Stella slapped her thigh and said, "Not only should you charge, but you should charge me double. Trust me. He's wealthy!"
Preston was speechless.
Was this the ex who turned hostile?
"Alright!" Preston said, thinking, 'It would be foolish not to make money when there's wealth involved.'
He hung up and turned back.
Wyatt was staring blankly out the window.
Summer had officially arrived in Bay City, and through the window, one could almost see the heat waves.
"Mr. Durham!" Preston spoke.
Wyatt snapped back and asked, "What did Stella say? Did she remind you to charge?"
Preston was taken aback. "How did you..."
Before Preston could finish his sentence, he fell silent.
Stella and Wyatt's mutual understanding was quite vexing.
"Never mind." Wyatt lowered his eyelids, somewhat self-deprecatingly. "We've spent half our together, so there's some understanding. Let's go with her suggestion, triple the fee, Okay?"
Preston was surprised that Wyatt had figured this out.
Although it wasn't exactly what Stella suggested, it was close enough!
Preston said, "Even though it's annoying to say this, I don't think you're the kind of person who would let her down."
Which scumbag could predict what his ex-girlfriend was thinking?
"Right." Wyatt smiled faintly. "But I did let her down."
"Let it go. It's all in the past." Preston quickly waved his hand. "I didn't know you well before, but after these days, I feel you're a good person. You'll meet someone good for you!"
