?Chapter 725:


    “Miss Bailey, as the Bailey family’s heiress, surely you can manage such a trivial sum. Or, Mr. Wheeler, will you stand by and watch your fiancée default on her debt?” Katelyn’s voice was light but dripping with sarcasm, a faint smirk barely visible beneath her mask. Taking advantage of her seemed an impossible task.


    Lise nced desperately at Neil for assistance. It wasn’t that shecked the funds; she simply didn’t want to spend them. If Neil covered the expense, she could save herself the trouble. Feeling somewhat aggrieved, she spoke up. “Neil, my expenses have been quite hightely, and there’s not much left in my ount.”


    Neil’s expression darkened with frustration. Was Lise always going to be a source of trouble for him? Suppressing his irritation, he responded coldly, “I’ll transfer the money to your ount shortly. For now, change out of the robe.”


    Katelyn’s eyes sparkled with amusement as she held up three fingers, waving them slightly. “I expect to see that transfer within three minutes.”


    Lise’s eyes brimmed with resentment. What a detestable woman! It was no surprise she was friends with Katelyn; even their infuriating demeanors were alike. What was the rush, anyway? The wealthy Wheeler family wouldn’t be troubled by such a sum. Clenching her fists and gritting her teeth, Lise managed to hold back her anger. With a haughty tone, she said, “Since we’ve paid for this robe, it’s mine now.”


    “Please take it off.”


    Katelyn’s eyes shed with wariness as she replied coldly, “I don’t have any spare clothes with me right now. I’ll give it to youter.”


    Lise scoffed, her tone sharp and decisive. “No. It’s mine now, and if you want to keep wearing it, you’ll need my permission. I want it now!” Having paid two hundred thousand, Lise was determined to expose Katelyn.


    Katelyn’s gaze grew icy as she stared at Lise intently. This was clearly a provocation. “If I give you the robe, what am I supposed to wear?” she asked, her tone t.


    “That’s not my problem. There are plenty of uniforms worn by the medical staff in the hospital. Why don’t you borrow one of those?” Lise’s mind whirled with ns. Once the robe was removed, she was certain that, even with the mask, she would recognize Katelyn immediately.

    Neil stood silently beside them, the sharp glint in his eyes betraying his interest. He, too, was eager to uncover the identity hidden behind the mask.


    Katelyn’s demeanor turned colder, but a sarcastic smirk yed on her lips. “Alright, no problem. I’ll take the robe off right now.” Her calm resolve seemed to cut through Lise’s scheme effortlessly. Trying to outmaneuver her with such petty tricks appeared futile.


    Lise’s expression faltered, a wave of doubt crossing her features. Hades had been so resolute in her refusal just moments ago. Why the sudden change of heart? Was she being outmaneuvered again by this cunning woman?


    Katelyn’s voice was cool and deliberate as she stated, “Money first, then the robe.”


    “Show me the transfer, and I’ll hand over the robe.”


    Neil pulled out his phone and transferred two hundred thousand directly to her ount. Having dealt with Hades before, he easily located the ount again. His expression remained serious as he watched Katelyn intently. “The money has been transferred.”
