    Chapter 146 Elsie ys Possum Again


    Owen snapped, “Whatever you’re nning, stop it right now!”


    Yunice looked up at Wyatt, but all she could see was the sharp profile of his face.


    He was staring straight at Paul, showing no sign of exining anything to her.


    Finished


    She had no idea what he was trying to do. Ignoring Owen, she turned to look at the tall walls surrounding the Saunders


    mansion


    From behind the walls, four cranes suddenly rose into the air–one from each direction–lifting a massive that stretched across the entire courtyard of the Saunders mansion.


    Lily gasped in horror, clutching Owen’s arm. “What are they doing?”


    Elsie shrank into Paul’s arms, <b>calling </b><b>his </b><b>name </b>in a panic.


    But <b>Paul </b>didn’t have <b>time </b>tofort her. He was staring up at the rising overhead


    Quinton, meanwhile, looked back and forth between Yunice and Wyatt. He’d heard about their engagement, but the rumors <b>said </b>the Powell family had arranged it just to rein Wyatt in.


    Judging by the situation now, though, it didn’t seem to match those rumors.


    After all, Wyatt was known for keeping his distance. Quinton had seen it himself–there was that one time a woman had tried to touch him, and Wyatt <b>had</b>…


    Quinton didn’t get to finish that thought. Out of nowhere–whack–something smacked him right in the forehead. A sharp pain made him instantly clutch his head.


    Instinctively, he looked up–just in time to see a backhoe arm extend over the Saunders courtyard, carrying a full load of coins directly above his head.


    The bucket was overloaded, and as it moved, some coins slipped through the.


    Quinton happened <b>to </b>be standing right beneath it.


    A massive <b>shadow </b>passed overhead; Paul and Elsie stood frozen in its path, eyes wide


    “Watch out!” Owen shouted.


    But it was already toote. The <b>backhoe </b>tilted, dumping the full <b>load </b>of coins onto the giant. The, acting like a sieve, scattered the coins evenly before they poured down like a rainstorm.


    Screams rang <b>out </b>from every direction, voices all tangled together–no telling who was shouting what.


    Quinton ducked, covering his head with both arms. Through the chaos, he looked toward Wyatt and finally <b>realized- </b>nothing was <b>falling </b>in their direction.


    <b>No </b>wonder Wyatt had led Yunice over there; he’d nned it all <b>out</b>. And he was on Yunice’s side–yet didn’t even give Quinton a heads–up!


    That sneaky bastard, Quinton muttered and bolted toward Wyatt and Yunice.


    Paul and his group weren’t so lucky.


    The <b>coins </b>fell with <b>serious </b>force, like a hailstorm from the sky. They dented the cars in the courtyard<b>; </b>forget people–this thing was brutal


    Chapter 140 Elsie ys Possum Again


    Of course, it hurt, She didn’t love Paul anymore, but seeing this scene made her feel miserable.


    It was like no one <b>had </b>ever truly loved ben


    Just then, she felt someone grab her arm and pull it clowe


    Finished


    Startled, she turned her head and saw Gill standing beside bet, ring at Paul with righteous anger while clinging tightly to Yunice’s arm.


    Noticing Yunice’s gaze. Gill leaned in and whispered. “Miss, you betare not rum over there. Don’t feel sorry for him–he deserves il


    So that’s what this was–<b>Gill </b>was afraid she hadn’t let Paul ye


    Yunice looked <b>at </b>Gill’s serious expression and couldn’t helpughing her eves, though, turned red. Who said no one had coer leed me Hadn’t Gill always stayed by my side wavering”


    She really had been foolish–feeling hurt over someone like


    What she should’ve cared about were the people who truly looked out for her Everyone else wasn’t worth the emotional toll.


    As soon as Gill saw her eyes fill with tears, she quickly turned Yunice’s face away and whispered anxiously. “Don’t cry, don’t


    -Mr. Cooper might see you<b>!</b>”


    “Men are all perry. You’re about to marry Mr. Cooper, and you’re crying over some other guy? Come on, does that seem right


    Yunice snorted. Paul doesn’t deserve it.”


    Gill immediately dabbed her eyes with a tissuepletely unaware that Wyatt had caught the whole exchange out of the corner of his et


    Up above the backhoe buckets kept dumping coins like it’d never end.


    Paul wasn’t bleeding but he was a mess; his whole body was battered, with welts rising all over the back of his head.


    Sering he couldn’t take much more, Elsie clenched her jaw and threw herself over him to shield him with her own body


    Paul looked at her, iquched. “Eksie…”


    Ease’s voice trembled through the pounding coins. <b>“</b><b>Paul</b>, I love you! You’ve already taken enough for me- can’t keep
