The situation became somewhat awkward.
na hadn''t caught on yet. "Have I? Howe I don''t remember?"
I replied, "Oh? You don''t?"ConTEent bel0ngs to N?v(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

na cleared her throat, ncing at Frank, her mouth twitching. "Have 1?"
Frank nodded firmly. "You have."
"I have?" asked na.
"Yes."
"Right, I have."
na suddenly realized, smiling at me. "I''m really sorry, I must have a terrible memory. Yes, I did add you on WhatsApp..."
She turned to look at Frank. "When did I add her on WhatsApp again?"
Frank cocked his brows. "During dinner. Did you forget?"
"Oh, right." na smacked her forehead. "Yes, yes, I even asked Frank for your WhatsApp at the time. I meant to tell you about his leg pain!" Then she asked Frank uncertainly, "Is that right?"
Frank gave her an exasperated look.
na smiled and said meaningfully, "That was my second ount, I don''t use it much. Let''s add each other again?"
"Sure."
We exchanged smiles.
After adding WhatsApp, I left Frank''s house and headed to the care home.
After seeing me off, na turned around and looked at Frank.
Frank frowned and asked coldly, "What are you staring at? Do I have something on my face?"
"No no no."
na shook her head thoughtfully, opening her bank ount page. "I''ve recently taken a liking to a bag, not expensive, just around 400 thousand. Could you, Mr. Smith, please cover the cost?" Frank''s face darkened. "Why don''t you go rob a bank?"
"Oh." na nodded, tapping on her phone screen. "I''ll quickly exin to your friend that the previous WhatsApp ount wasn''t mine, so she doesn''t get scammed. It wouldn''t be good, right?" Frank gritted his teeth and said, "Give me your ount number."
"You''re so generous."
na promptly gave Frank her bank ount number and cheerfully said, "I''ll have SA reserve the bag for me right now."
As soon as she finished speaking, her phone rang with a notification. Looking at the ount bnce, her smile became even brighter. She had received 1 million dors.
Normally, Frank was known for being stingy, always saving up and meticulous about money. He was well-known for being cheap.
He always said that he was saving up for his wife.
But who would need so much money for his marriage?
Thus, they all privately concluded that Frank was simply a miser. Except
during holidays, no one could expect to get anything out of him.
After na finished smiling, she felt a bit uneasy Something unusual was happening, "When did you be so generous?"
"The money''s to shut you up ''Frank gave her a sidelong nce. "By the way, you have a close friend who is a celebrity Tave her help find out what''s going on with Yasmin''s daughter that sudenly appearedst year."
Upon hearing this, na finally felt reassured. As expected, Frank wouldn''t do anything that didn''t require payback. She patted her chest. Okay, I''ll take care of it."
Then she cocked her brows. "Why are you suddenly so restless? Have you given up on ying hard to get and began pretending to be pitiful?"
"Give my money back," said Frank.
na red at him. "You really are something. If you don''t want to tell me, that''s fine."
"Now that you''re back in Jeswood, shouldn''t you be picking up Danny?" said Frank. "Yes." na felt a bit guilty about her son. "I''ll go get him tomorrow. It''s the weekend."
After the divorce, getting full custody of the child from her ex was already a huge relief.
Frank nodded. "Aren''t you busy with dating? After you pick him up, I''ll take care of him."
"You?" na was stunned.
Frank was notoriously impatient, especially with children. After Lily went missing, he became irritable around kids.
na reached out to touch his forehead. "Are you sick?"
Frank impatiently moved away and said, "Didn''t they say women like children?"
''She, too, should like them,'' he thought.
na wasn''t stupid and quickly understood his intention, chuckling.
"So, you want my son to help you pursue a woman?"
"Is that not okay?"
"Well, it is..."
na smiled and reached out her hand. “But there''s a separate fee. Danny is a treasure of the elders of the Jackson family. We''re not short of money, you can decide how much you give." When na got married, it was more of a business arrangement. Unfortunately, she and her husband were both stubborn, neither were willing topromise.
She couldn''t understand how someone just six or seven years older than her could be so conservative.
She wore a sexy nightgown, and her husband immediately covered her with a robe,pletely unromantic.
She endured it for a while but eventually couldn''t take it anymore, leading to their breakup.
Frank readily agreed, "No problem, I''ll pick up Danny tomorrow and give him whatever he wants."
"You promise?" na looked at him suspiciously. "You''re not lying to me?"
Frank squinted his eyes. "Why would lie to you?"
Children were easy to please. One could ask them if they wanted a Superman figure or 200 grand and they would still choose the
Superman figure..
Adults didn''t believe in magic, but children did.
Frank maneuvered his wheelchair to the window, gazing out at the dark
night. His eyes seemed to blend into the night.
He didn''t believe in magic. He only believed in Lily.
Or perhaps, Charlotte.
The Charlotte that he knew right now
