The Soldier's Unsurpassable Honor novel Chapter 198

"You said it. You said it yourself. I don't care. If you can't recover the money, you'll have to give me 3.8 million!" Upon hearing Fane’s response, Fiona immediately stood up and grabbed onto Fane's collars and made unreasonable demands.

"Ma, it's not Fane that took your money. How can you b e like this? He can at most help you look for it and see i f he can recover it. Even if he fails to recover the money, you can't demand the money from him, right?”

Selena was speechless. Her own mother was being too unreasonable to expect Fane to take responsibility for this matter.

"I don’t care. He's the one that claims to recover the money for sure!"

Fiona did not let Fane go.

"Sure, sure. If I can't find it, you can take it from me!”

Fane was speechless as he moved her hands out of the way. "Mother, don't you worry. You're Selena’s mother, that makes you my mother. I won’t let your money be taken away from you just like that!”

"That's better!”

Fiona finally stopped crying and went back to smiling. She then asked Fane, "You better give it your best. Give me a deadline. I can't be waiting forever,

right? Can you get it back in a week?"

"Ma, how can it be that easy? Do you think we're picking up money from the floor? Who knows where they will be hiding after taking the money?!"

Selena felt the need to stand up for Fane as her mother made it sound like Fane owed her the three million bucks.

"He agreed to it himself. You can’t blame me, right?"

Fiona had seemingly realized her own unreasonable behavior, but she still crossed her arms and replied, albeit without much confidence.

Having said that, she then looked at the nosy crowd around her. "What're you looking at? There's nothing t o see here. Get lost!"

"Alright, Mother. I’ll promise you to get them back in one week, okay? If I can’t recover the money, I'll add it t o the betrothal gifts during Grandfather’s birthday. How's that sound?"

Fane comforted.
