Maddox's lips curled into a cold smile. His voice was deep and cold, as if wrapped in a bone-chilling coldness. "One million dollars? Alright, I agree."
I was slightly stunned. I didn't expect Maddox to agree so quickly.
When Rebecca heard this, she suddenly stood up from her chair. Her face instantly contorted and was filled with ferocity.
Her lips trembled, and the napkin in her hand was gripped tightly. She wanted to say something but hesitated.
After a long while, she sighed and gritted her teeth. "Alright, Maddox is now the head of the Parks family. You have the final say. Don't regret it in the future."
Rebecca snorted and glared at Maddox fiercely. She turned around and pushed the chair away. With the help of the servants, she left the dining table angrily.
At this moment, Kailyn was also stunned. She didn't expect that not only did I not receive Maddox's reprimand, but I also got what I wanted.
Maddox asked for my bank account number. In less than half an hour, my phone dinged and the transfer information came into view.
"Laurel, you're really capable! The moment you came back, you angered Grandma quite a bit and even made requests to your father. How dare you?" Kailyn's face was filled with disdain as she scolded angrily, "Do you really think you can get much benefits from the Parks family?"
I was in a good mood after receiving the money. I said perfunctorily, "Aren't you going to buy clothes? Time waits for no one. It's a waste of time and money. After all, there are many reporters waiting to take photos at the entrance! If you don't go, I won't refund the money."
"You're really thick-skinned! If it were me, I wouldn't have returned to the Parks family at all. You husband's whereabouts are unknown, yet you still have the mood to make money here. I really didn't expect you to be such a person. Back then, you married Alex for money, right?" Kailyn frowned and stared at me with disgust in her eyes.
"That's right. I did it for his money, but also for him. What's wrong?" I smiled and replied unhurriedly.
Kailyn was stunned. Anger surged on her face. Her gaze was as if she wanted to skin me alive. Jealousy and unwillingness surged in her eyes.
A moment later, she seemed to have suddenly thought of something and sized me up with a complicated expression. Her lips curled into a disdainful smile. "It's getting late. Let's go shopping. Don't let others think that the Parks family has mistreated you."
I nodded slightly and smiled indifferently at her sudden change in expression. I felt that it was worth it to put on this show for one million dollars.
Kailyn held my arm affectionately. The cameras kept flashing. I smiled sweetly at the camera.
Beside me, her warm breath was mixed with the sweet smell of perfume, making me nauseous.
In order to show how much the Parks family valued me, Kailyn had invested a lot this time.
Since I am being paid, I naturally couldn't ask for more.
I picked out a lot of clothes that I liked and planned to shop for two hours. Unexpectedly, Kailyn found an excuse to rush back.
Rebecca's birthday party was just around the corner. There were only two days left.
In the residence, the servants were busy decorating. The entire villa was immersed in a joyous atmosphere.
In order to comfort Rebecca, Maddox asked Kailyn to stay with me.
"My mother has been discharged from the hospital. How have you been recently?" Maliyah called. I had just woken up from my sleep.
Ever since Maddox agreed to my conditions, Rebecca did not come looking for trouble.
I sat up and rubbed my sore neck. "I'm fine. How's Javier?"
"You know about what happened?" Maliyah sounded surprised.
I nodded and realized that she couldn't see. I quickly added, "If anything happens in the future, remember to tell me immediately."
"I know. I'm just worried that you'll be worried."
Maliyah paused for a moment before continuing, "Javier's matter has been settled. It seems that the family who extorted us was arrested by the police. The old lady admitted that Javier didn't push her. Why do you think this person is like this?"
Actually, I had long heard from Sophina that Javier was fine.
The old lady's family was not easy to deal with. After the old lady fell, she knew that her son and daughter-in-law could not fork out the money, so she extorted Javier.
When her son ran into Sophina's parents on his way to the hospital, he used the same trick to blackmail them. In the end, he encountered a tough opponent, and the two of them fought.
When the couple was arguing with Sophina's parents, they said something they shouldn't have, and it was all recorded by the recording pen.
In the end, he did not get a single cent from Javier and even compensated Sophina's parents with 7 thousand dollars.
What was even more ridiculous was that Sophina's father actually broke his leg for 7 thousand dollars.
They did this not only for the money I gave them, but also to take the opportunity to ease the conflict with Sophina.
After hanging up, I was in a good mood. I took Sophina downstairs.
As soon as we reached the door, we saw Kailyn walking over. "It's Grandma's birthday tomorrow. Have you prepared a gift?"
"Gift? What gift?" I looked confused.
"There will be many guests tomorrow. Grandma will be angry if you don't prepare a gift. Besides, it's not like you don't have money."
"Kailyn, if it wasn't for your mother, how could my mother have died? I'm so angry when I see you. What do you think I should do?"
Kailyn's smile instantly froze, but she quickly sneered. "Laurel, your mother overestimated herself and wanted to climb up the social ladder. She ended up like that. You're the same. Do you still want to keep the status as Mrs. Herrera?"
She took a step forward and said mockingly, "I heard that the police have found your husband. He hasn't contacted you yet, right? Do you know why? He has fallen in love with his savior!"
"Is that so?" I narrowed my eyes and looked calm. "If he really fell in love with someone else, I don't mind. After all, I want his money. Besides, I'm not as stupid as my mother to choose to leave with nothing. I'm still pregnant with his child."
Kailyn was stunned. Clearly, she did not expect me to not care about the rumor.
"Do you think that without the Herrera family as your backer, you can still rely on the Parks family?" Kailyn had a contemptuous smile on her face. "If you have no value, do you think you can still be here?"
I smiled, and my eyes met hers faintly. "You're right," I said softly but firmly. "At least I'm still useful. What about you? You've already lost once, so there'll be a second and a third time. I'll take back what was mine, step by step."
When Kailyn heard this, she was stunned on the spot. Two seconds later, she snorted and mocked, "Laurel, what do you think you can snatch from me?"
"Everything that belongs to me."
I was slightly stunned. I didn't expect Maddox to agree so quickly.
When Rebecca heard this, she suddenly stood up from her chair. Her face instantly contorted and was filled with ferocity.
Her lips trembled, and the napkin in her hand was gripped tightly. She wanted to say something but hesitated.
