"h.e.l.lo, Angela Si. You might not know about me, but... you do know Baron Li, right?" the woman said on the other side of the line.
Angela was perplexed at the woman"s words. She wondered how Baron had anything to do with this.
But she suddenly remembered her bet with Baron. He lost the bet, and he was supposed to go streaking around the city tomorrow. Was he mentally prepared to do it?
So Angela answered, "Yes, yes, I know him. Is he eager to go streaking as soon as possible? If that"s the case..." She wanted to say that she had nothing to do at the moment, so they could make it one day earlier.
But the woman laughed and cut in, "No. Miss Si, that"s not why I called."
"What? Then, who are you?"
"Do you remember a yellow-haired boy who was with Baron?" The woman asked and then paused for a moment, giving Angela time to recall the memory.
Soon enough, Angela remembered a Ferrari car, then a boy with yellow hair. She then said, "Yes, I remember." She had crashed her car into his Ferrari! Of course, she couldn"t forget him.
Thinking about it, Angela wondered why hadn"t that boy come to ask her to compensate for it. Also, Baron was awfully quiet these days. He wasn"t causing any trouble.
Then, she heard the woman say, "Hmm... okay. I"m the boy"s mother. I"m calling you to offer my sincere grat.i.tude."
"What grat.i.tude?" Angela couldn"t believe what she had heard. Shouldn"t she ask her for compensation? Was she being sarcastic?
"Yes, thank you. My son"s name is Malik Jia. His car was damaged by you, and after that, he was afraid that his father would teach him a lesson, so he went to look for a job."
"..." Angela still couldn"t understand what was happening.
Malik"s mother continued, "Let me explain. Malik has been brought up with luxury and wealth ever since he was born. He graduated from school three years ago, but still hasn"t gone to work yet. He keeps going out, picking up girls, and stirring up trouble."
"After his Ferrari was damaged, he found a job for himself. He"s now living a normal person"s life, earning his own money. I had someone follow him. In the first few days, when he got off work, he still went to bars and night clubs to have fun. But none of these p
It all starts on that fateful night.
When Ella, who is the dear sister of Samuel’s best buddy, sneaks into the hotel where the drunken Samuel resides and gets pregnant…
"I don’t want a divorce!"
"I don’t want a divorce!"
"I did no such thing!"
Ella jumped on the bed and cried out. “I don’t want a scheming woman as my wife. Just sign the paper...
t now, she happened to see her again.
Angela felt speechless. After a moment"s hesitation, she probed, "How about I give your son a new Ferrari instead?"
"Oh, no. Miss Si, I know you are a kind woman. But I really want my son to change. Please help me save him. Please..." Malik"s mother sounded like she was about to cry.
Angela really felt helpless! Why did she involve herself in this matter...
"Okay, fine! I"ll give it a try. But I"m not sure whether Arvin will agree or not, so please don"t keep your hopes up!" Angela conceded.
"No problem! You can also tell Mr. Gu that if he agrees, I"ll help him persuade Sansa Ye!" Coincidentally, Malik"s mother had been friends with Sansa Ye for a long time.
"Who is Sansa Ye?" Angela wondered. She had never heard of this name.
Malik"s mother paused. She then said, "I don"t know how to explain it to you. But Mr. Gu will understand. Please just tell him these words, okay?"
"Okay! I will, " said Angela.
"Thank you, Miss Si. Will you be back to the Oujing Apartment later?"
"Um... I don"t know yet."
"Well, if you come back, please tell me. I"ve made some desserts today, and I want to give some to you."
"..."
Malik"s mother was too enthusiastic!
But Angela was amused, so she nodded and said, "Okay, thank you!"
"You"re welcome! Please go on with your work. Feel free to come visit my house downstairs." She even invited her over.
Facing her enthusiasm, Angela nodded and said, "Okay, I will."
