Awakening the War God novel Chapter 254

Chapter 254 Counting Money

Gabriel's ears were extremely sharp.

He could even hear the dice in the casino and determine the points. In such a close conversation, he naturally heard everything clearly.

He also heard what the stranger on the other end of the phone said.

After finishing the call, Priscilla immediately became restless and anxious.

Sixty thousand dollars was not a small amount!

Right now, she only had a little over twenty thousand dollars in her savings.

In this society, gathering money was extremely difficult!

Seeing Priscilla's anxious look, Gabriel advised her, "Miss Weber, let's eat first. You can only focus on it after having a full stomach!"

"You eat first!" Priscilla waved her hand, walked into her room with a frown, and closed the door behind her.

She hesitated for a while before making a phone call.

She could only borrow money shamelessly now.

"Hello? Linda, do you have any spare money on hand? Can you lend me some for a while?"

"..."

"Hello? Emily, can you repay me the money you borrowed last time? I need it urgently!"

"..."

After more than ten minutes, Priscilla came out of the room feeling discouraged.

Borrowing money was too difficult.

She made nine phone calls, and only three people agreed to lend her money.

But it seemed that it still wasn't enough to reach sixty thousand dollars.

Gabriel nonchalantly finished a plate of spaghetti and wiped his mouth, saying, "Miss Weber, if you have any difficulties, you can tell me. Maybe I can help!"

For him now, sixty thousand dollars was nothing.

Considering Priscilla's help to him last night, he could give her the money to help her out.

After hesitating for a moment, Priscilla shook her head and said, "It's fine. I can handle it myself. But thank you anyway!"

She had just met Gabriel, and borrowing money from him was not something she could do easily.

Since Priscilla didn't ask, Gabriel naturally wouldn't offer to lend her money.

He leisurely walked over to the sofa and turned on the TV again.

The news was playing Tim's case again.

When he saw Tim, he wanted to beat Tim up...

Gabriel rested peacefully at Priscilla's house.

Besides watching TV, he slept!

He hadn't been this comfortable in months.

Meanwhile, Priscilla was struggling. Not only was she busy with work, but she was also busy borrowing money.

Two days later, it was Saturday!

Priscilla didn't need to work on weekends!

She sat on the bed, took out her own money, and also took out the borrowed money.

"Seven hundred and forty, seven hundred and sixty... Seven hundred and eighty-nine, a total of fifty-seven thousand, seven hundred and eighty-nine dollars!"

She counted three times, even using coins, but she still needed over eight thousand dollars.

She was extremely distressed and conflicted.

It had already been two days, and the person who had the video should be contacting her soon.

But what should she do if she didn't have enough money?

"Miss Weber, so much money?" Gabriel suddenly stood at the door, leaning against the door frame, squinting his eyes and smiling. "You're really bold. I am here, and yet you're openly counting money. Aren't you afraid that I'll rob you?"

In his eyes, Priscilla wasn't bold, but rather a bit foolish.

As a police officer, she had no sense of guarding against bad people.

He didn't even know how Priscilla became a police officer.

Priscilla shook her head and said, "I can tell that you're not a bad person. With your skills, you probably wouldn't care about this small amount of money!"

"Eh..." Gabriel was suddenly speechless.

He had just said that this woman was a bit foolish, but she unexpectedly said something so insightful, making him feel a bit unaccustomed.

Ha-ha, she really had great discernment!

"Ding Ling."

Just at that moment, Priscilla's phone rang.

Priscilla took out her phone and saw an unfamiliar number.
