Married a Secret Billionaire novel Chapter 1574

At the party.

Sasha seized a moment to excuse herself temporarily. She pretended to head to the restroom but instead sought refuge in a secluded corner to make a phone call. She needed to reach Zachary and seek his guidance regarding the situation.

After a prolonged ringing, a deep voice finally answered on the other end of the line.

Sasha impatiently asked, "Why did it take so long for you to answer?"

She was unaware that Zachary was now in a police car and could only take her call with permission. "Zachary! I called for something important. What's going on?"

With a heavy heart, Zachary softly called her name, "Sasha..."

He wished to say more, but a police officer had already aimed his gun at Zachary's waist.

"Alright, alright!" Sasha said impatiently. "I just have one question... Earlier, Pamela asked me for a 700,000 dollars gift. Should I give it or not?"

"700,000 dollars?"

"Yes!" Sasha, still oblivious, added, "I don't know what kind of arrangement Lena had with Pamela, but as soon as Pamela saw me today, she mentioned her daughter's newfound ability to speak and requested a congratulatory gift. It's some... some cat's-eye gem worth 700,000 dollars!"

Zachary immediately understood. This wasn't what Lina wanted—she was asking on behalf of Kasey. Regardless of how Sasha acquired the money, she would return it the same way.

Zachary closed his eyes and sighed deeply.

"Zachary? Zachary!" Sasha couldn't wait. "Can you please say something? Should I give it or not?"

"Sasha, you have grown up and should... make these decisions yourself."

"If I could figure it out myself, would I need to ask you?" Sasha furrowed her brows. Zachary's behavior was strange and out of character. "Actually... I don't really want to give it. Giving such an expensive gift to a child is absurd! But..."

Sasha hesitated. "But I'm afraid it will raise Pamela's suspicions."
