"Honey, to be honest, the 100 million bucks is very tempting. After all, you would have had enough money for grandfather's birthday if we took it. But come to think of it, we can't take the money."
They went back home and had their bath. Selena was lying sideways on the bed while looking at Fane lying on the ground as she smiled and said, "Honey, I realize both of us might be meant for each other. Sometimes, we just seem to have the same thoughts!"
"If I saved the boy for the money, I would've taken it. However, the money wasn't on my mind when I was saving him, so I wasn't going to take it!"
Fane smiled and looked at Selena who was dressed in sexy sleepwear. Then, he said, "Honey, Kylie seems to be fast asleep. Can I kiss you?"
Selena instantly rolled her eyes at Fane, "In your dreams. But I have a question for you. What are you going to do with the stolen 3.8 million? Don't forget that mom set a time limit for you!"
Worried, she spoke again after she was done talking. ' Also, we agreed to give mom only 10 million worth of betrothal gifts. You're the one who allowed her to take advantage of you and now she's asking for 20 million. On top of that, you have to compensate Ivan 10 million bucks and gifts worth a few ten million bucks. You have to prepare 40 million bucks in total on
grandfather's birthday. How are you going to find that much money?"
"Don't worry, honey! I have my own ways!" Fane said, unconcerned. 1
He finished talking and after thinking for a few moments, he continued, "By the way, didn't you think Xena was suspicious? What if we put on a show with your mum? What do you think?"
"My mum? Will she work together with us? What if she doesn't want to work with us?"
Selena was shocked. She wondered what Fane was plotting now.
"Haha, don't worry. If she doesn't want to put on a show with us, I'll tell her we’re never going to get the money back! If she works with us, we’ll get the money back very soon. What do you think? Anyways, knowing her personality, I think she'll agree to work with us!"
Fane laughed as he briefed Selena on the details.
The next morning, Fane and Selena drove to work respectively.
