Chapter 453 Not Charlene McKinney âWell, letâs go back.â
After Declan got to the ward, Declan remained in the ward until he received the phone call that he had to leave.
Deirdre remained by Kyranâs side all the time But Kyran was still slumbering After a long time, a nurse knocked on the door, came in, and asked, âMiss McKinnon, itâs almost nighttime. Do you want something to eat? Iâll go to the cafeteria and get you a meal box âNo.â Deirdre smiled. Thank you, but Iâm not hungry yet âBut⦠Miss McKinnon, you havenât eaten all day Even if youâre not hungry, your body needs food The nurse was worried âHow about I bring a bowl of porridge over? Just take a little Otherwise, Mr. Reed will be in distress when he wakes up later Deirdre really didnât have much of an appetite. But when she thought that she might not make it through the night if she didnât eat, she nodded hesitantly âThank youâ
On the other hand, Blake made a phone call at the hotel. As soon as the call was connected, he reprimanded furiously, âWhatâs going on? What about the money you promised me? Why havenât i received it yet? We agreed on 50,000 dollars! Are you reneging after youâve only paid 25,000 dollars?â
Upon hearing Blakeâs accusation, the other end was enraged âHow dare you still call me? What a troublemaker! That woman was not Charlene McKinney at all. She was just an ordinary passerby! I trusted you, but now I have received the courtâs summon âWhat?â Blake was incredulous âAre you kidding? That was indeed Charlene McKinney!â
In fact, Blake somewhat felt guilty. Although he was assured, he had no way to prove that Charlene McKinney was the woman who should be in prison.
But again, they shouldnât have any evidence to deny it.
âWho is that woman? I think you know better than I do! Weâve already received her information. Her name is Deirdre McKinnon, an ordinary woman!â
âDeirdre McKinnon?â Blake suddenly panicked and forcibly calmed himself down. âYou werenât deceived, right? Maybe itâs just a random piece of informationâ¦â
âIf I were not sure, would I not report such news? On the contrary, I trusted you so much, but you ended up deceiving me! You better quickly return the 25,000 dollars, or you know my tricks!â
After hanging up the phone, Blake panicked. His dream of becoming a rich man had come to naught.
He knew what tricks he would have to face if he didnât return the money, so he hurriedly called his girlfriend. The phone was connected almost instantly. Blake heard Lily walk aside amidst laughter, who said excitedly. âDear, you are really great! I managed to show off in front of my friends! Iâm now doing my shopping and bought myself a set of beautiful clothes, remember to come to me at nightâ¦â
How could Blake care about all these things? He was so devastated that he asked cautiously. âLily, how much have you spent from the 25,000 I gave you?â
âEightâ¦â
âEight? In that case, it should be just 800 dollars at most.â
Just as Blake was about to breathe a sigh of relief, Lily said playfully, âItâs 18,000.â
Blake was rendered speechless.
âWhatâs the matter?â Noticing that Blake remained silent, Lily frowned, pursed her red lips, and said, âAre you unhappy that I spent so much? Blake Dunn! Donât forget that when you transferred me the money, you already told me to spend it freely, and you said you would support me. But in the end, youâre showing your true colors when I just spent a little of your money?â
Blake was sweating profusely. âNo, Lilyâ¦please listen to my explanationâ¦â
