Roy took out ten taels of silver and handed it to I in front of the camera. "This is from the Emperor. Be grateful to him. We have food and drink thanks to him."


    I looked at the money anxiously.


    Wynter knew that I needed the money. She looked at I. "Do you want it? You can have it. I won''t object to you taking it."


    She looked serious as she spoke. "But what I want to tell you is, you might lose more by taking this money


    because you don''t know what the person giving you the money wants."


    I bit her lip. She wanted it. Her mother was sick, and her father needed cigarettes.


    They all needed money.


    But she still remembered how her sister had been taken away by these people!


    At that time, they had also given her father ten taels of silver, saying they would bring her sister back after


    taking a photo.


    But her sister had been gone for seven days and still hadn''t returned!


    While I and her mother were worried every day, her father had just gone to the tobo shop with ten


    taels of silver.


    I waited for her sister every day.


    No! She didn''t want this dirty money! She just wanted her sister back!


    "I don''t want their dirty money!"


    Even though the fear in I''s eyes was evident, there was also hatred within them.


    She was proud and unyielding. Perhaps one didn''t need to be an adult to know what one should and and shouldn''t do. One should hold onto principles even in the face of strong temptation.


    "Did you hear that?" Wynter raised her eyebrows, ced the money back in Roy''s hand, and said bluntly,"


    Get lost."


    Roy had never been so humiliated. They were in an era dominated by the Foplyans. He had never been yelled at like this before, especially in front of Foplyans! He could still endure it even if the Quinnells and the Whitmans looked down on him. But Wynter was just


    amoner!


    Rory gave him a warning look. Hence, Roy dared not reveal anything through his expressions. He bowed and stepped aside to let Wynter and I pass.


    Although the onlookers hadn''t dared


    toe forward to stop the


    Foplyans, they were all watching


    Wynter with expressions of


    incredulity and inexplicable


    admiration.


    They were poorly educated and couldn''t understand why ady who had dared to be disrespectful to the Foplyans had been able to leave unscathed!


    The more they watched the scene, the more they admired Wynter.


    If they retreated and showed any signs of weakness, the Foplyans would bully them to death and even treat them worse than a dog.


    Only when they were stronger would the Foplyans dare not tread on them.


    Yet, there were some people who analyzed it more deeply. For instance, the people in charge of the Youth Daily deliberately bumped into Wynter as she walked by.


    "Turn left up ahead, go to Peace


    Hotel in the east, and find the


    president of the Chamber of


    Commerce from the Quinnell family. Someone will help you. The


    eyel?


    Foplyans won''t keep their word. You must be quick!"N?velDrama.Org: owner of this content.
