Jane hesitated again before hesitating, "Ada, your living expenses... Can you give Dad an emergency first?" He seemed afraid that Jessica would be upset, and immediately said, "Dad will give you more soon."
Jessica sighed.
I'm sure the mother at home is up to something. Before Jane is really not easy, there is such a wife at home, do not understand him as a daughter, throw face to him every day.
To save him this time, we have to do it one step at a time.
Jessica fixed her mind and calmly said, "Dad, it's not that I won't give it, but you are in such a hurry that I need to know what's going on with you."
There was a silence. Jane did not expect that her daughter did not shake her face and hang up the phone, but also cared about him in the first place... His nose was sore again.
Originally, I didn't want to tell my daughter what was going on at home. He was worried that Ada would become estranged from his mother if she found out. But now, listening to the quiet voice over there, he suddenly felt that his daughter had grown up, had the right to know something, and could make decisions on her own.
He hesitated and whispered, "It's about your mother..." There was a slight wind on the receiver, and the man seemed to change places before adding, "She, she lost a lot of money at the casino, so..."
After a pause, Jane added, "Ada, don't blame your mother. She too..."
"Also" behind, he did not think of what to say, is a little embarrassed, the daughter spoke, the voice is still very calm: "How much money?"
"..." Jane hesitated.
He was surprised by his daughter's calm reaction, but he was reluctant to talk about the exact amount, for fear that she would worry about it.
After a few moments of relative silence, Jane said with some difficulty, "more than a million..."
This is no doubt not a small amount for a family like theirs, even if the domestic pay is good in the Luo family, the monthly expenses are also quite a lot.
It all depends on Jane's wages. Women don't go out to work. So, even if the salary is good, the savings are only a few hundred thousand.
Jane opened her mouth, trying to comfort her daughter: "I'm not afraid of this. I have savings at home, so I can't borrow much money. It will be over for a while. Ada, don't worry too much.
Jessica sighed and touched her bank card. Lord Lowe just handed it over in the car, and there's a million dollars for the month.
The Lowe family is not short of money.
But this contrast, the gap is too obvious.
Jessica frowns, thinking about her identity in this world for the first time, whether she can successfully get to the young master of the Luo family... But this idea is also a flash, she thought, "Dad, I have something to tell you, the phone is not convenient, where are you?"
Jane froze and said, "Still at home."
Their home is not in the capital, but it is not far, a few hours by car.
"Come over, then, and let me know when you come." Jessica thought. "I can get the money."
She's worried Jane won't take it seriously if she just says something. Now he said he could get the money, the phone side, the man was really nervous: "So much money, how do you get it?" Ada, Dad can turn it around. Don't do anything... Ok, you wait, Dad will be here soon, you are at school first."
All morning later, Jessica had just finished lunch when she got a call from Jane.
She packed up her things, asked the guide for leave, and went home with the bank card.
Jane has a rented house in the capital, but the father and daughter do not often come back, Mo Ada lives in school, and he is often busy until late at night, so in order to save the idea, the rent is not big, the location is not good.
As Jessica walked in the door, she saw someone else -- a woman.
She said nothing.
It had been expected that the woman would come with Jane, after all, she owed a debt and felt uneasy, Jane gave her a sense of security at this time, where he was going, the woman did not shout with him.
Jessica doesn't say anything. The woman glances at her, frowns at her country dress, but doesn't say anything. She turns to Jane and asks, "What's the hurry?" Money for Can you raise enough?"
This time she really played big, so the tone is not as impatient as before with her husband, but more cautious.
Jane is also tired, did not reply to her words, a little anxious to Jessica, "Ada, you tell dad, what is your problem?" You can't mess around."
"Well," Jessica nods, "Dad, don't worry, I have a sense of proportion. Come in, I'll tell you."
'she said, and walked into the room.
The two people behind were stunned, and the woman's face suddenly changed: "Mo Ada, what do you mean?" What can't your own mother hear?"
Jessica looked back: "You poke such a big basket, clearly do not care about this family, I also help you because you are my own mother." What have you got to complain about?"
