Chapter 1793


    Sean nced at his phone screen, and with a sly smile, Arabe teased, "Sean, you lost."


    The rule they had set for their game was clear: No peeking at the phone, not even once.


    "Ahaha, I did! I just couldn''t resist. A bet''s a bet."


    When Sean checked his phone, as expected, there was a notification for a deposit of 5 million dors.


    He considered the windfall a reward and without hesitation, he transferred the whole sum to his sister''s


    number through the mobile banking app.


    Then he texted David, [Let''s see if you dare to trick me again.]


    David hadn''t anticipated that Sean would actually pull a fast one on him. How scheming he was! Did he


    have to do this to him for 5 million dors? He almost believed something happened to Be!!


    [You...you got me good!] David was at a loss for words, but relieved that Be was fine, the weight in


    his heart lifted.


    Arabe’s phone chimed with the transfer notification as soon as she powered it on. She uttered


    immediately, "Sean, it’s just a game; you really don’t need to send me the money."


    She hadn''t intended to win Sean''s money; it was all just for having some entertainment with Sean since


    there was nothing much to do.


    "Don''t you dare send it back. We agreed on the rules, and besides, spending money on you makes me


    happy. Plus, I''ll let you in on a secret: this cash came easy; I didn''t break a sweat earning it!" Sean''s


    mood was clearly buoyant as he added, "Get some rest. I''m gonna take a shower."


    As Arabe watched him climb the stairs, her phone buzzed again with a message from David asking


    what she was up to, along with eleven missed calls.


    [Needs me for something? I was just ying a game with Sean] she texted back.


    [What game?] David had a hunch that this game was somehow connected to the 5 million he''d just


    lost.


    [Sean bet on who could go without touching their phone for half an hour. The winner got a $5 million


    prize.]


    So that was it! Sean had swindled his money to cheer up his sister! Sneaky dog!


    Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDra/ma.O(r)g!


    But in the end, it was all going into his sister’s bank ount, so David couldn''t really feel bad about it.


    As long as she was happy, so was he.


    Louisa was strolling through the garden, arm in arm with Keh, when a servant abruptly approached


    with news.


    "Mrs. Collins, Mr. Cooper is here. He''s waiting at the gate. He’s concerned because he hasn''t heard


    from Serena in two days and came to check on her."


    Louisa hadn’t expected such devotion from that young man toward Serena and casually instructed,


    “Tell him the girl has made a mistake and we’ve confined her as punishment.”


    “Yes, Mrs. Collins,” the servant promptly replied and withdrew.


    "Martin''s a good kid, too bad." Keh couldn''t help butment, "If only the girl knew how to cherish


    him, with Martin doting on her, she''d be living a charmed life."


    Walking behind them, Eunice, who was holding Bard''s arm, added in a soft voice after hearing what he


    said, "If she knew how to cherish her luck, she wouldn''t have ended up in this situation. It’s her own


    insatiability that''s to me, not anyone else’s."


    After a while, the servant returned, "Mrs. Collins, Mr. Cooper insists on seeing you. He seems even


    more anxious now."


    "I will not see him," Louisa stated, not wanting to waste words.


    "Mr. Cooper says he''ll wait outside until you agree to meet him."


    Keh sighed, "The boy always had determination. If we don''t see him, he might indeed wait out


    there for a night or two."


    After all, it was with that same determination and patience that he had built his sessful business at


    such a young age and won Serena''s heart.


    "Fine, bring him to the garden."


    If he wanted the truth, she might as well tell him everything and let him see Serena for who she really


    was.
