Chapter 9 - Chapter 9: Favorability plummets, happy birthday to you

And, 3.8 million!

Evelyn Steele is really bold, asking for 3.8 million!

Where does she get so much money?! She is not from high society, she doesn't have rich parents, how can she earn so much money by herself?

She felt annoyed when she thought of her mother at home who always cried and asked for money.

If the other person was not still useful, would she have gone to such great lengths to save him? Was Evelyn Steele's medicine so easy to get?

If Richard Steele regrets his decision, he will definitely feel resentful towards her. How can she carry out her future plans?

Lila Carter returned to her room, closed the door, and then called out in her heart: "System, what is the current favorability of Richard Steele and Matthew Steele? Also, how can I make 3.8 million as quickly as possible?"

Lila Carter was also bound to a system called Heartthrob by chance.

She can gain points by increasing the favorability of male targets, and redeem them for all kinds of incredible rewards, thus reaching the peak of her life.

This made her ecstatic. She knew that she was born extraordinary and was destined to be the phoenix soaring into the sky.

And Evelyn Steele is her stepping stone, the one she wants to replace.

"Richard Steele's favorability has dropped to 50%, and Matthew Steele's favorability has dropped to 1%." A cold mechanical voice rang in Lila Carter's ears, causing her heart to sink.

"How come it dropped so much?" It's ok that Richard Steele was pretending, but Matthew Steele almost dropped to zero!

Fortunately, she has been helping Matthew Steele to make connections with Emily Roberts. Even for an important occasion like yesterday's birthday, she lowered herself to invite Emily Roberts, a poor guy, to attend.

"Forget it." Lila Carter didn't think about it too much. Things had come to this point and there was no point in thinking about it. She might as well think about how to get out of the current predicament.

"System, I remember that when the points reach 10,000, they can be directly exchanged for cash." Lila Carter thought for a moment, "Just exchange it for 3.8 million for me."

"10,000 points can only be exchanged for 100,000 cash." The system voice was still cold and ruthless.

Lila Carter frowned, "Why is there only so little money?!"

This system was very generous in other aspects of reward, such as giving her skin that was as smooth as a baby's, eyes that could charm the world, and various luck bonuses, health bonuses, and other priceless treasures. But it was very stingy when it came to money.

The points she had worked so hard to earn were only enough to exchange for 100,000 yuan!

But, never mind, something is better than nothing. "Never mind, 100,000 is 100,000, just give it to me quickly!"

Richard Steele and others knew her current financial situation, and if she rashly took out 3.8 million, people would probably question whether her money was unknown.

She took $100,000 and said it was earned through hard work from her part-time job, which was just enough for her to show Evelyn Steele her determination to repay the loan, and it also made everyone think that Evelyn Steele was aggressively forcing her to pay back the money.

Finally, you can also gain some sympathy points.

Killing three birds with one stone, perfect. Lila Carter couldn't help but smile with satisfaction.

The Charming System paused for a moment before the mechanical voice sounded again: "...Sorry, host, you don't have enough points now and cannot redeem."

"Not enough points? How is that possible!" Lila Carter was speechless. She had confirmed this morning that she had at least 18,000 points.

Even if Richard Steele and Matthew Steele's favorability values dropped, they were still at least over 10,000 points.

System: "...Currently, the host has a total score of 6,000 points. Please continue to work hard to reach the target favorability value in order to earn more points."

Lila Carter's heart sank to the bottom. She was not stupid and quickly reacted, "What is the current favorability score between Ethan Cole and Jason Bennett?"

System: "...Ethan Cole's favorability value has dropped to 10%, and Jason Bennett's favorability value has dropped to 60%."

Jason Bennett's favorability value is still within an acceptable range, having only dropped by 10%. Ethan Cole's original favorability value was 60%, but it also dropped to 10%.

It seems that these two also know what happened just now.

Ethan Cole is indeed cold-blooded and ruthless. It is so difficult to increase her favorability, but it drops very quickly. He is basically treating her as Evelyn Steele's living bone marrow bank!

Lila Carter's teeth were almost broken, and she had no choice but to flip through the book.

Fortunately, the aristocratic school she attends, Shengyang High School, has various scholarships. She has exchanged her smart brain through the system and is determined to win the first-class scholarship in this monthly exam.

——

After Evelyn Steele finished her bone marrow donation, she took the IOU and looked at it, feeling very satisfied.

She had no intention of making things difficult for Lila Carter, but she couldn't allow herself to be bullied.

As for the future, if Lila Carter really acts like what is written in the novel and relies on stepping on her to get to the top and become famous, then she can just prepare to be slapped in the face by her.

She put on a mask and prepared to go to Richard Steele to discuss going to school.

When I opened the door, a small and exquisite Black Forest cake was suddenly handed to me.

A candle was burning quietly above, illuminating the delicate eyebrows and eyes of the young man in front of him, as if they were coated with a layer of warm color.

"Happy birthday to you~Happy birthday to you~" Jason Bennett's fox eyes were full of smiles, and he hummed the birthday song in a low voice, his voice tender and gentle, "Evelyn, happy birthday to you."

"I wish you..." The tip of his tongue touched his teeth, as if he was praying devoutly, just like in the past, "Long life."

Yesterday was Evelyn Steele's birthday according to the Gregorian calendar, but both the Yan family and the Xi family are traditional families and have always only celebrated their children's birthdays according to the lunar calendar.

Mother Victoria Steele was particularly fond of her youngest daughter and even prepared a grand birthday party for her twelfth birthday.

On that day, Victoria Steele fainted due to exhaustion from hosting a birthday party. She was rushed to the hospital and was diagnosed with cancer. She died less than three years later.

Evelyn Steele's birthday according to the Gregorian calendar became a pain that the Xi family was unwilling to touch. After that, no one celebrated her birthday on this day, and Evelyn Steele had no intention of celebrating her birthday.

But by that time Jason Bennett had already returned to the Fu family. The teenager still stubbornly believed that his sister Evelyn was destined to live a long and happy life, so every year on the second day of her birthday on the Gregorian calendar, he would come to celebrate her birthday and send her birthday wishes.

"Thank you." Evelyn Steele smiled and glanced at the cake indifferently, "But I'm afraid I can't eat the cake. I can only ask you to help me solve it."

The smile in Jason Bennett's eyes froze for a moment, "Evelyn, you're not going to invite me in to sit for a while? You haven't even made a wish and blown out the candles."

Evelyn Steele pointed to the mask on her face and said, "Sorry, I'm afraid it's not convenient for me. Besides, I have something to do right now. Let's talk again when we have time."

Jason Bennett showed a helpless smile on his face, "You are always busy."

After a pause, he spoke again as if inadvertently, "If I didn't know what kind of person you are, I would have thought you were deliberately avoiding me."

Evelyn Steele smiled. Even though her face was covered with rashes that looked disfigured, her eyes were still breathtakingly beautiful. Her smile was filled with starlight that made people's hearts tremble.

"You will always be my best brother as long as you are willing." Evelyn Steele said meaningfully.
