Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle novel Chapter 1487

Jean thought since she was being straightforward, he would not beat about the bush either. He said directly, “Transfer 20,000 dollars to me now to pay for Mom's medical bills.”

“20,000 dollars?” Nina raised her eyebrows.

"You know how expensive the new medicine is. 20,000 dollars is cheap enough. Including the cost of the nursing expenses as well as the food expenses, we need money to pay for all of that,” Jean said without feeling an ounce of guilt for demanding such a huge amount of money.

Nina had already known that her brother was hopeless. Fortunately, she had been keeping her eyes on him.

“I’ll transfer 5,000 dollars later. That’s all,” said Nina.

Jean replied with a higher pitch, “5,000? How is that enough?”

5,000 dollars was just enough for Anna’s medical bills. It was not nearly enough to cover the food expenses and his living expenses.

“Yes, it’s not enough. I’ll transfer the money for Mom’s food expenses and nursing expenses to Aunt Susan. If Mom wants to have anything, Aunt Susan will get it for her,” said Nina.

Jean bit his lip. Anna mentioned that Nina seldom went to the hospital, so she did not know much about what had happened.

“5,000 isn’t enough to pay the medical bills. The medicine is expensive,” he said. He had no money left, so he could only take some money from Nina. After all, money was not a problem for her.

“I’ve asked how much Mom's treatment costs. 5,000 dollars is enough. As for the extra 15,000, I’m not going to give it to you. If you’d like to watch Mom die, then you can take the 5,000 for yourself,” Nina said heartlessly. Although Jean had turned into a bad person, he still cared about Anna.

It was because he knew that if he wanted money from Nina, he would need Anna to do that.

If Anna was gone, Jean could not get money from Nina anymore. Hence, he would not dare to take the 5,000 for himself.

As for the nursing expenses, Nina dared not give the money to Jean.

After all, he was not like he used to be. He was unscrupulous. Nina had to transfer the money separately.

When his intention was exposed, Jean swore, “B*tch!”

Nina heard it, and she paused for a moment when she was transferring the money. How hilarious it was. Her biological brother was scolding her with such words.

B*tch… Hah.

Nina's heart was almost numb. She eventually transferred the money. "I've transferred the money to you. Mom's life is in your hands, so it's your choice to make. And times have changed. I'm broke, and I can't afford to pay for your extravagant spending habits. Jean, get a job."

“Hmph.” Jean hung up the phone angrily. He refused to listen to Nina’s advice.

Broke? He would not believe that unless the Mallory family went bankrupt. Only then would Nina be broke.

Nina listened to the busy tone of the call, smiled bitterly, and put down the phone.

After she transferred the 5,000 dollars, she transferred another amount of money to the care worker, Aunt Susan, for the nursing expenses and Anna's food expenses.

Even though it was tough for Nina, she did not let Anna suffer. She was paying for the most expensive set meal in the hospital’s canteen for Anna.

…

On the other hand.

Luke and Luca got into the car after they left the apartment.

Luke was speechless. What she said was indeed true. Nina was just an ordinary woman. What purpose could she serve Luca?

Could it be that Luca wanted to get closer to Nina to obtain the trade secrets of Brilliant? Luca did not have to. Brilliant was just a small company. Even if one of their employees was awarded the International Design Award and they became the hottest company, it was unlikely for Luca to want to steal any secrets from them.

Besides, there was no way Nina could obtain the trade secrets of T Corporation. She was not even interested in Mallory Corporation’s secrets.

Although it seemed strange for Luca and Nina's friendship to develop that quickly, there seemed to be no conspiracy theories behind it. Perhaps it was really only because the two women hit it off.

Luca got out of the car at the entrance of T Corporation.

A few employees in the hall saw her and whispered to each other. It was because they recognized the car. It was Mr. Crawford’s car.

Luca was a little frustrated. She was planning to get out of the car at the previous junction and walk back to the office. It was to avoid her from being seen going in and out with Luke. However, Luke did not do that and even parked the car beside the road.

If it was the basement parking lot, that would be acceptable for her. Moreover, it was not after working hours now, so no one would be in the basement. If she did not take the same elevator with him, no one would even realize that they returned to the company at the same time.

However, he said he was going to park the car in the parking lot beside the road as he would be going out later. That was why he stopped the car at the company’s entrance and dropped her off there.

The car stopped. Luca had no choice but to push the car door open and shot a glance at the receptionist inside the building. She knew that the matter about her getting out of Luke’s car would be spread throughout the company soon.

She scurried her way to the elevator without considering whether Luke had already parked the car or if he was following behind her.

There was no need for Luca to turn around as she knew everyone was looking at her right now.

She let out a sigh. The rumor that she had been avoiding would probably be spread around again.
