Josh and Alison looked at each other.
It was true.
Compared with money, they didn't feel reluctant to transfer the ownership of the house to Paul.
"Yes. You can't have the cake and eat it too. If we can handle Paul sooner, we can live a rich life sooner!" Alison made a final decision. "Let's change the ownership of the house and transfer the money to Paul tomorrow morning. In the afternoon, we'll go to the wealthy family and ask for a house," Alison continued.
"In addition to the house, let's ask for another five million dollars in cash?" Josh said, thinking for a while. "We can't ask for too much because that would show how greedy we are. We'll only demand a house and money!"
"That's right. The death compensation of Paul's parents is only one million dollars. If that rich family gives us five million dollars, we still earn a lot of money!" Olivia said excitedly.
They would have five million dollars and live in a fancy apartment.
They would have a bright future.
Their faces lit up. They didn't even feel reluctant to return Paul's parents' death compensation.
Josh knocked on Paul's door in person.
He told Paul he agreed.
Paul acted as usual and closed the door.
Josh was enraged and scolded him again.
They had no idea what was going on.
After Paul closed the door,
he took out a very old mobile phone from his schoolbag, switched it on, and dialed a number.
Early the next morning,
his uncle, aunt, and cousin were more anxious than Paul.
Paul was eating breakfast unhurriedly.
"Hurry up!" Josh urged impatiently. "Stop dawdling! You're just like your father!"
However, Paul ignored him.
After breakfast, he used the landline at home to call the head teacher and ask for leave.
After that, he went out with Josh, Alison, and Olivia.
They went to a nearby bank first.
Josh transferred the death compensation of Paul's parents to Paul.
