17 thousand?
Aurelia looked at Leslie in disbelief.
Judging from his expression, he wasn’t lying.
Jackson had actually spent 17 thousand to book the entire restaurant.
Clearly, Millie hadn’t anticipated this either.
Her face turned pale, but she quickly regained composure.
She laughed coldly and said, “He didn’t do it for Aurelia. Jackson booked the restaurant for me! Don’t get ahead of yourselves! He loves me!”
“Enough!”
Mrs. Parker couldn’t bear to watch Millie any longer.
“This has nothing to do with Aurelia. I’ve sold the items in your closet. Had I not done so, I wouldn’t have known you were hiding nearly over a hundred thousand at home. You took out loans just to buy these things, yet you won’t even spend money to save your dad’s life!”
“Mom! What are you saying? You sold my things? Why? Those were gifts from Jackson! What right do you have ah!”
Before Millie could finish her sentence, she received a slap on the face.
This time, it wasn’t from her mom. It was from Aurelia.
“Did that wake you up?” Aurelia asked.
“Aurelia! Ah!”
Aurelia delivered another slap.
“The first one is a payback for the slap you gave me. This one is from me personally!”
“Arev
you insane?” Millie was at a loss for words.
“Wake up! You haven’t married Jackson yet, and you’re already burdening your entire family with an enormous debt! What do you have left? Will Jackson help you? He’s leaving the country soon, you think he would help you then?” Aurelia asked.
“Who says he won’t help me? I’ll go with him in a few days.” Millie smiled.
‘Are you insane? Your dad needs you by his side right now, and you want to go abroad with Jackson? Do you know how much money that requires?” she questioned.
Just because you’re broke doesn’t mean I can’t afford it.”

Millie turned to her mom, holding out her hand.
“Mom, you said you sold my things. Where’s the money?”
Mrs. Parker looked at Millie with despair.
“You… What are you saying?”
Millic frowned.
“Give me back my money. Don’t worry, Mom. Our good days are still ahead.”
Mrs. Parker stared at Millie, finally accepting that her once cheerful and considerate daughter is gone.
“Thanks to Mr. Synder’s help, I managed to sell them at a pretty good price. I used some of the money to pay off some of your loans, and the rest will be used for your dad’s treatment.”
“You’re lying! I don’t believe you!”
Millie took out her phone and tried logging into her parents‘ bank account to check the balance.
However, no matter how she tried, the login password was always wrong.
“I’ve already changed the password. Since you aren’t reliable anymore, I have to start looking after my savings myself. Oh, I sold the ring you secretly kept in the drawer too.”
Millie’s eyes flashed with anger and she stormed up to her mother.
“You sold my ring? That was my engagement ring!”
“Engagement? With whom? The receipt in the box showed you bought it yourself. Did you propose to yourself?” Mrs. Parker said.
Millie cried. “Mom, why don’t you understand me? I need to present myself in a certain way to gain recognition from Jackson’s family!”
Mrs. Parker was sick of reprimanding Millie and frowned in silence.
Seeing as her mother wouldn’t help her, Millie walked up to Aurelia.
“Aurelia, you were the one who told my mom to sell my things, right? Who do you think you are? Pay me back all my money! Hand it over!”
“What are you, a bandit? Do you really think I’m a pushover? You claim to be Jackson’s soon–to–be wife, so all that money shouldn’t mean much to you. Are the Morrisons actually really poor, or are they refusing to acknowledge you?”
Aurelia didn’t mince her words.
Leslie raised an eyebrow and gave her an approving look.
From the beginning, Millie’s words were contradictory and unreasonable.
The fact that she had to make a loan to look like she was living a luxurious life proved that her

relationship with Jackson was coming to an end.

“Aurelia, my mom is easily influenced. Your husband was the one who told her to sell my stuff. If the two of you don’t pay me back that money right now, you aren’t stepping out of this hospital!” Millie
shouted in frustration.
