    Chapter 631 Hock


    In the next morning.


    Casey was awake, but he didn''t get up. Instead, hey on the sofa with his eyes closed, having a rest


    while thinking about his n.


    At this moment, Annabel sat up and stretched herselfzily. She had long not had such a sound sleep.


    After getting out of bed, Annabel quietly came close to the sofa. Seeing that Casey''s eyes were closed,


    she thought that he was still asleep.


    "Humph, you were so stubborn. You deserve to sleep on such a hard sofa. I was so generous that I


    agreed to share a bed with you, but you should not cherish it. Stupid!"


    As she murmured, she pulled the nked for Casey.


    Then she came close to the bed, took a watch from the table and stared at it for a long time with


    reluctance.


    "That bastard needs to buy a mobile phone. I can only sell you. I hope that I can find a good host for


    you today. You can''t be with me in the future anymore." Annabel spoke to herself.


    These days, Annabel and Casey lived in Christine''s home. It took a lot of money to live and get a


    doctor for Casey.


    Besides, Annabel clearly knew the situation of Christine''s family, knowing that they couldn''t afford to


    support two more people. Therefore, at the very beginning, she sold some of her jewelry and gave a


    sum of money to Herman. Otherwise, they might have been driven out.


    After that, to help Casey recover from his injuries, she needed to get something like nutrient solution.


    Besides, a wheelchair was also needed. Annabel bought all of them with the money she got from


    selling her jewelry.


    When her mobile phone was dropped into the sea, it had been broken. And she was not in the habit of


    taking a bank card with her. Therefore, she could only support their life in this way.


    The pieces of jewelry she sold were her favorite. In the past, she spent a lot of money on them. Now, in


    this strange ce, she could only sell them at a very low price.


    This watch was thest thing she had. She didn''t know what to do after using the money got from


    selling it.


    At this moment, Casey secretly opened his eyes and looked at Annabel, feeling puzzled. Annabel


    spoke in a low voice, so he didn''t hear what she was muttering.


    Before long, Annabel was ready and left with that watch.


    Casey wanted to know what Annabel went out for. Therefore, not long after she left, he hurriedly got up


    and followed her to the center of Q City.


    They had been Q City for a long time. Casey had just been to the wharf for a few times. In the rest of


    the time, he had been staying at Christine''s home. It was the first time for him to go to the center of Q


    City.


    As a rtively remote coastal city, Q City didn''t develop very well. However, although it was a small


    city, it had all the facilities a city should have. Besides, because of the wharf, the trade had developed


    quite well. Therefore, people here lived a life nearly as good as people in other ces.


    Annabel came to a pawnbroker''s shop in the center of the city. After hesitating for a while, she went in


    with that watch.


    The pawnbroker was a middle-aged man in his forties. He wore a mustache and looked a little cunning.


    At this moment, he was sitting at a table and leisurely basking in the sun by the window with a teapot in


    his hand.


    When Annabel went in, he gave her a nce. Then, his eyes lit up. He stood up hurriedly.


    When the employee just approached Annabel, the pawnbroker pulled him and said, "I''ll take care of


    her. You go inside and tell Young Master Huang that the beauty I mentionedst timees."


    That employee nodded at once, turned around and went inside.


    "Miss, youe to hock something again. This way, please." The pawnbroker led Annabel to the table


    with a smile.


    Annabel didn''t talk nonsense, directly handing the watch to him.


    "I want to sell this watch, how much does it worth?" Annabel spoke.


    The pawnbroker took it and looked at it for a while. His eyes lit up at once.


    "It''s a good watch. It''s a Patek Philippe watch. But it seems to be a fake one. It''s a bit rough.


    Considering that you''re a regr customer, I''ll give you five thousand dors. It''s a good price. How


    about that?" The pawnbroker spoke with a smile.


    Annabel frowned and said, "It''s a limited edition watch. I spent more than one million dors on it. And


    you''ll just give me five thousand dors. You go too far."


    "Miss, don''t try to fool me. If you can afford a watch worthy of more than a million dors, you won''t


    need to hock it here. If you can show me the invoice for this watch, I''m willing to give you more money."


    The pawnbroker was cunning.


    Annabel was somewhat helpless. How was it possible for her to get the invoice for this watch now? If it


    were in the past, even if this watch was just dropped on the ground, she wouldn''t bother to pick it up.


    Now, she was forced by life to sell it for money.


    "I don''t have invoice with me. But 5000 dors is chicken feed. At least, you should pay me 500000


    dors. Otherwise, I won''t sell it to you." Annabel said. It was thest valuable thing she had, so she


    had to get more money from selling it. Only in this way could she support the life of Casey and her for


    some days.


    The pawnbroker immediatelyughed and said, "Miss, you''re demanding an exorbitant price. You want


    to get 500000 dors by selling a fake watch. Why don''t you go to rob somebody of it?"


    Hearing that, Annabel stretched out her hand to take her watch back and said, "Then I''m not going to


    sell it to you. I''ll go somewhere else."


    The pawnbroker immediately gripped the watch tightly. He was not going to give it back to Annabel.


    "What''re you doing? Give it back to me!" Annabel became anxious at once, stretching out her hand to


    get the watch back.


    The pawnbroker stood up, looked at Annabel with a smile and said, "Miss, don''t be anxious. In fact, it''s


    possible for me to give you 500000 dors."

    Annabel frowned, stared at the pawnbroker and asked, "What do you mean?"


    "He, he. The condition is that you can take the hint. If you listen to me, I''m willing to give you five million


    dors, not to mention 500000 dors." The pawnbrokerughed obscenely.


    Annabel subconsciously took two steps back, looked warily at the pawnbroker and asked, "What do


    you want to do?"


    Right at this moment, several people came out from inside. The first people toe out was a slovenly


    young man in his twenties. Several bodyguards followed him.


    After seeing Annabel, the young man''s eyes immediately lit up. He hurriedly asked, "Boss Chang, is


    she the beauty you mentioned to me before? Fuck, she''s really as beautiful as a fairy."


    Boss Changnodded with a smile. Then, he looked at Annabel and said, "Miss, I''lle straight to the


    point. He''s Howell Huang, Young Master Huang, the son of the boss of Qiansheng Mall. He takes a


    fancy to you. As long as you''re willing to be his girlfriend, you''ll have money to burn in the future. And


    you won''t have to hock something here anymore. Think about it."
