“See for yourself whether it’s true!” Jason retorted feebly. While he had long since been chagrined over Helen hurling fruits at him for no good reason, he was far more distressed over losing an opportunity to negotiate with her.
“Hannah Young from X City, born on x/xx/199x…” Helen couldn’t help reading it aloud. With every sentence she read, her voice shook a little more, for everything matched her sister’s description.
“Hmm? The deputy general manager of Phoenix Group?” She stopped short at that. As far as I know, Hannah is just an insignificant journalist. So, how could she have possibly become the deputy general manager of Phoenix Group?
Thus, she felt that it wasn’t her sister. Of course, she didn’t think that Jason was deliberately tricking her. Rather, she was certain that he, too, had been duped.
“What an idiot! This isn’t my sister. My sister is a journalist, but this person is a deputy general manager. That’s a huge gap, okay? Furthermore, she doesn’t have two hundred million. If she had it, she would’ve surely shared it with me. Am I not right, Hannah? Anyway, I think you’ve been duped as well, so I’ll let you off this time. Next time, however…” Hannah’s words were directed to both Jason and Hannah.
Unexpectedly, before she had even finished speaking, Jason interrupted her. “You’re the idiot!”
Without giving her a chance to counter, he turned to Hannah and asked, “Hannah, do you know the name of Fabian’s company?”
At that, puzzlement swamped Hannah. What exactly is on the cell phone? Why are they talking about two hundred million and asking about Fabian’s company now? Has his company made a profit of two hundred million? But what has that got to do with me?
Despite finding Jason’s question bizarre, still, she replied, “Phoenix Group. Why?”
“And what’s Fabian’s position in Phoenix Group?” Jason continued questioning.
“The president.” Exasperation engulfed Hannah. Don’t tell me he asked me these two pointless questions just to point out the grandeur of Fabian’s status?
“Very well!” Jason nodded. Subsequently, he looked at Helen smugly. “Now, read that again.”
“The deputy general manager of Phoenix Group!” Helen’s face was a mask of shock. Her eyes popping out of her head, she dashed over to Hannah’s bed and demanded in stark disbelief, “When did you have two hundred million, Hannah?”
Upon hearing that, Hannah couldn’t help rolling her eyes. What kind of joke is this? Could I possibly have two hundred million? Ah, if only I have two hundred million, I wouldn’t have to calculate how to pay Fabian back every day! I’ve long since had enough of his capitalist reactionary expression! And he even dared to demand that I pay him back with my body! Why won’t he just die?
“And… And you actually donated it away!” Helen swallowed before exclaiming, “I’m also poor, Hannah! Why don’t you donate some of it to me? I’m not greedy, so I don’t need two hundred million. I’ll be content with just a pittance of it!”
Hey, I’m not mad! Would I have donated the money if I had two hundred million? That would be insane!
Curling her lips, Hannah scoffed at her, saying, “Alright, my silly sister. How could you believe such a thing? I would’ve definitely given you some if I have two hundred million. We’ve always shared everything equally since young, so I would even give you a hundred million, not to mention a pittance. But I really don’t have that money!”
She chuckled dryly, making it apparent that she didn’t believe Helen at all.
“Of course, you don’t have it! That’s because you’ve donated it!” Helen retorted with a bitter expression on her face. Then, a smile bloomed on her face as she gazed at Hannah. “However, you’re now a celebrity in the eyes of the fellow students and teachers.”
While she spoke, she handed Jason’s cell phone to Hannah.
Taking the cell phone, Hannah looked at it with some curiosity. What kind of novel news is it that has managed to pull the wool over both Jason and Helen’s eyes?
“Hannah Young…” Hannah again read it aloud from the very beginning. As she did so, she inwardly mused, The Internet is really advanced these days that they managed to get all my information without making a single mistake. It must be some software that has leaked my personal information. No, I’ve got to be extra careful in the future!
