His Versatile Gorgeous Wife novel Chapter 1768

Holding onto the card, Rayson felt as if it weighed a ton. Deep down, there was a burning urge in him to ask if Susanne wanted to save the money for the rainy days ahead. But at the same time, he thought it was not a very appropriate question. That'll sound like I'm cursing Mr. Nightshire.

“I'll save this sum of money as our last resort.”
