172: Chapter 171 Asking Edwin Blake for Money 172: Chapter 171 Asking Edwin Blake for Money “What!
Really!”
Leon Peterson was ecstatic.
“Don’t use Lynn’s na, use my own.
The timing of this competition should not overlap with the Chinese dicine contest.”
Ivy River curled her lips into an amused smile.
“Alright.”
Leon Peterson and Ivy River discussed their work matters and then left.
…
Isla Sutton was staring blankly at the initial version sent by Ivy River.
She glanced at so information on Baidu Baike.
Lynn’s design style is simple and elegant, but the final product carries a sophisticated aura.
Professionals find it captivating, while non-professionals have the urge to purchase it.
She pondered for a while.
Started considering adding so fortune-attracting jewelry on the tablet, and added many butterfly pendants.
In the end, she felt that the ornants looked nice.
“Indeed, popular items are market-certified.
Otherwise, why would so many jewelry stores sell so well?”
Knock knock knock—
Ava Sutton knocked on the door, cautiously poking her head in.
“Mommy, are you busy?”
Isla Sutton replied, “Just say what you want to say.”
“Can you give two hundred yuan?
The teacher said today, if the book fee isn’t paid, they’ll take my books away.”
Ava Sutton stood by the door, trembling.
Isla Sutton imdiately questioned loudly, “What book fee do you need to ask for?
Why hasn’t your teacher called ?
Are you lying to !”
“Oh, you little thing, you’ve learned to cheat for money at such a young age, what else won’t you learn when you grow up?
Just like your father, exactly!
Just like your roots!”
Ava Sutton started crying, she had no ability to retort.
“Why are you crying?
If you’re going to cry, get out.
If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t be so poor now, having to pretend to be nice in front of Edwin, who am I doing this for!”
Ava Sutton sobbed, “For, for …
Mom, don’t be angry, I didn’t lie.”
“Dare to lie!”
Isla Sutton stord towards Ava Sutton and slapped her directly.
Ava Sutton didn’t dare to dodge.
She had to bear it silently.
It hurt so much…
“Mom, I—I was wrong, please don’t hit …”
Isla Sutton’s heart was already filled with anger, she had no idea where to get the final paynt for the bracelet.
And yet Ava Sutton was still asking her for money.
“Cheating money!
I’ll teach you to cheat for money, not learning good things at such a young age…”
Once Isla Sutton was too tired from hitting her, she had Ava Sutton stand as punishnt and forbade her from eating.
She lay on the sofa and started playing with her phone.
When she opened WeChat, she found that Ava Sutton’s class teacher had sent her many ssages.
Even called three tis.
A quick glance.
It was about needing to pay for book fees and materials fees, all totaling 205 yuan.
Edwin Blake only paid the tuition and al fees when Ava Sutton started school.
He hadn’t paid the book fees and miscellaneous fees.
She glanced at the wronged-looking Ava Sutton standing in the corner, knowing she had blad her wrongly.
“Ava, co here to Mom.”
Ava Sutton quivered instinctively upon hearing her voice.
She cautiously walked to Isla Sutton’s side, keeping her head down, not daring to speak.
Seeing her timid appearance, Isla Sutton’s anger flared up, but then she rembered it was a misunderstanding on her part, and patiently asked, “You only asked Mom for two hundred, where will you get the remaining five yuan?”
Ava Sutton was a bit confused, her brain hadn’t caught up yet.
“The teacher said the miscellaneous fees are 205, where will you get the remaining money?”
Isla Sutton’s tone was full of interrogation.
“Oh, oh, it was Uncle Harry who gave pocket money before, I—I still have five!
That ti Uncle Harry gave money, I told you, please don’t hit …”
Ava Sutton ca to her senses and said softly.
Hearing this made Isla Sutton uncomfortable, she reached out intending to hug Ava Sutton.
But she dodged.
“Mommy, don’t hit , I really know I’m wrong, next ti I won’t make you angry, but I really didn’t lie.”
As she spoke, tears began to fall from Ava Sutton’s eyes.
Isla Sutton’s heart ached, she directly picked up Ava Sutton, “I won’t hit you, I’ll transfer the school fees to your teacher through WeChat now.
Next ti, when you need to pay book fees or such, just co ho and tell Mom.”
Ava Sutton trembled, “I told you, but you wouldn’t listen…”
Isla Sutton paused, recalling that it seed to be the case.
She awkwardly said, “Next ti just say to pay the fees, then I’ll transfer it to the teacher via WeChat.
I was too busy today, Mom didn’t check the phone, it wasn’t intentional, does it hurt?”
Ava Sutton got off and shook her head, “Mom, I still want to go read for a bit, I don’t hurt, you don’t need to feel guilty.”
Seeing her about to reach the door.
“Stop, co back!” Isla Sutton’s commanding voice echoed in her mind.
Ava Sutton hesitated, unwilling to go back.
But she couldn’t disobey.
She turned around, eyes brimming with tears.
Isla Sutton frowned at the sight, “I’m not hitting you, who are you putting on a show for?
Go and call Uncle Blake, tell him I’m not ho and you have no money for food.”
“Should I use my phone?”
Isla Sutton coldly replied, “Yes, say what you want to eat, then say I’m not ho and not picking up, you have no money, ask him for so money!”
“What if Uncle Blake doesn’t answer my call?” Ava Sutton thought of the bad things she had done recently, suspecting Edwin Blake might not want to answer her call.
“If he doesn’t, co up with a way!”
Ava Sutton listened to her sharp voice, fearing another beating, she quickly said, “Okay Mom, I’ll get my phone now.”
“Co here to make the call!”
Ava Sutton cautiously nodded, returned to her room, took her phone, and gulped down so water to calm her nerves before hurrying back.
“When you make the call, be sweet, don’t sound lifeless, rember to ask for more money, Mom is really poor right now.”
Isla Sutton continued instructing just seconds before the call connected.
Edwin Blake didn’t want to pick up but checked the ti.
In case sothing urgent happened, he answered.
“Hello?”
Ava Sutton froze, unsure what to say.
Seeing this, Isla Sutton pinched her, mouthing the word, “Talk!”
Ava Sutton spoke softly due to the pain, “Is it Uncle Blake?”
“What’s wrong, is there sothing?”
Edwin Blake asked.
Ava Sutton replied softly, her voice sounding very aggrieved due to the pain.
Upon understanding, Edwin Blake said, “I’ll transfer you money now, do you know how to order takeout?
If not, have Uncle Harry get so for you, or buy so and bring it ho.”
Ava Sutton said, “I can, when Mom’s busy I order by myself, or you, Uncle, can also help order.”
Hearing this.
Isla Sutton was filled with anger.
She twisted Ava Sutton’s waist.
Who asked him to order takeout?
What was the goal?
It was to get money!
That girl didn’t follow the plan!
“Ah!”
Ava Sutton couldn’t help but scream.
Edwin Blake frowned and asked, “What happened!
Are you alright?
Harry!
Go check on Ava Sutton…”
Hearing his loud call.
Isla Sutton panicked and mouthed to Ava Sutton to say everything was fine.
