Chapter 659: The Big Spender
"She’s really seriously ill, I’m begging you to go see her. If you don’t like her anymore, give her some money, save her life, I’m begging Master Connor!"Watt Ginger said, and then started kowtowing again, and not just pretending—his forehead hit the ground with a thumping noise, and soon enough, he was bleeding!
The four people in the trees watched the spectacle with great interest, one even whistled at Connor: "Hey, Brother Connor, is this your father-in-law? Picking such in-laws, aren’t you embarrassed for Young Master Hunter? You’ve got your work cut out for the second half of your life!"
Connor’s face turned grim, he glared at the guy: "Get lost, all of you! Natalie Niles isn’t here with me, whether she’s dead or alive, I don’t know—go look elsewhere!"
Lying on the ground beside them, Zack Ginger’s eyes darted around; he knew who Natalie Niles was since his sister had mentioned her countless times. She was the vicious woman who had snatched away Connor, the money tree, and the violent woman who had punched his hand so hard that it still hadn’t healed from the fracture!
Now that Natalie Niles wasn’t here with Connor, it was just the right opportunity for his sister!
"Master Connor, my sister spent so much time with you, can you really be heartless enough to watch her die? Just consider it a loan to us—once she’s better, we’ll pay you back!"
Zack also climbed up and started kowtowing just like Watt Ginger, thumping his head on the ground.
Bleed from it?
He could do that too!
What’s a little injury compared to money!
Before Connor, two heads were continuously hitting the ground, making him incredibly irritated.
He wasn’t sure what disease Cora had, but if she urgently needed the money to save her life...
He took a deep breath, furrowed his brows, and spoke up: "I’ll give you a hundred thousand, get back quickly and take her to a doctor!"
Zack sharply lifted his head: "That’s not enough! You’re too stingy..."
Before he could finish speaking, Watt Ginger pulled him aside: "Thank you, Master Connor, we’ll go back now! What you’ve given is quite a lot; Cora will definitely be grateful knowing you saved her, and once she’s better, she’ll undoubtedly come to repay you by being a beast of burden."
Connor faintly felt that something wasn’t quite right, and immediately rejected: "No need for her to repay, you two get lost quickly and don’t come back!"
"Alright, alright, we’ll leave now."
Watt Ginger was supported by his son, trembling as they walked away.
Once they had left that villa area, he grabbed his son’s hand urgently and asked, "Did you get the money?"
"Got it!"
Zack showed him the account balance on his phone, grumbling: "I could’ve asked for more, why didn’t you let me speak? And you came out too early—if you’d let him kick me a bit more before coming out, couldn’t we have asked for more money, taking advantage of the injury?"
"If you got seriously hurt, wouldn’t it cost money to treat? Besides, we got a hundred thousand first, there’s plenty of time ahead, and we can slowly ask for more. If you ask for too much at once, they won’t be willing to give next time!"
Watt Ginger instructed his son, walking with difficulty, leaning on a crutch.
Zack felt his dad made a lot of sense, giving a thumbs up in approval: "Old ginger really is spicier than young ginger! Dad, is your leg hurting? Come, I’ll carry you! Let’s go enjoy a good meal today! It’s a celebration for you!"
Watt Ginger was very satisfied, thinking his son was quite filial, he lay on his son’s back, asking: "Does Cora know any other rich folks?"
"None left, just got that bodyguard as a sucker."
"Didn’t she know some wealthy Young Master?"
"Heck, she doesn’t know any Young Master from a wealthy family; she knows the Young Madam of a wealthy family. The Young Master, for his wife’s sake, arranged a job for her and gave fifty thousand once—it was quite some time ago though!"
"Where’s that Young Madam? Her good friend is seriously ill, she wouldn’t spare some charity money, would she?"
Zack’s eyes lit up: "Yeah, right, why didn’t I think of that!"
