Nancy curved her lips into a cold smile. "What's our relationship? Why should I help you?"

Hearing this, Vivian burst into tears. "Nancy, I know I wasn't nice to you before, but that's all in the past. My dad is now your Master. Please help me for my dad's sake. I'm begging you, please..."

"My Master?"

Nancy's voice softened, she sounded a little helpless, "Alright, what's the matter?"

"I... I..."

Vivian sobbed as she spoke. "This afternoon, my dad scolded me. I was so upset that I went to a casino to vent. I... I lost all my money and even borrowed some high-interest loans. Now, they're forcing me to pay back, saying if I don't, they will... do something to me..."

She's quite good at making up stories!

With Vivian's talent for lying and acting, Nancy thought, it was a waste she wasn't in the entertainment industry.

Nancy humphed impatiently. "Why don't you ask your dad or your husband for help? Why come to me?"

"God... What do I do..."

Vivian sobbed a few times before suddenly turning angry. "Alexander? That freeloader? He's already doing well not to ask me for money, how can I expect him to give me any? And my dad? He's always scolding me for everything, thinking everything I do is wrong. If he finds out I went gambling, he will definitely kick me out of the Lesser family!"

Alexander, "..."

Andrew, "..."

Well...

Interesting....

So, this is what Vivian really thinks of them in her heart!

It seems Vivian has been holding these thoughts in for a long time and finally voiced them out...

Nancy apologetically looked at Alexander and Andrew. She had spoken that way earlier to prevent the kidnappers around Vivian from getting suspicious. She didn't mean to lead Vivian into revealing her true thoughts...

Her tone impatient, Nancy asked, "So, how much do you owe? Let me tell you upfront, I don't have much!"

"Not much, not much..."

Vivian, believing that even if Nancy had married Charlie and seemed to be pampered by him, wouldn't have access to cash from Charlie.

To lure Nancy out, Vivian had already thought it through. "Just two million! Nancy, I know you have it."

Any more than that, she figured, would be beyond Nancy's capacity to provide.

Nancy bit her lip hard, just two million!?

To underestimate her like that!

But Nancy wasn't angry. Given her relationship with Vivian, even twenty dollars would be too much to give.

Seeing Nancy silent, Vivian thought she was unwilling and began to cry again. "Nancy, I know you don't have much money, but please, save me. I promise I'll pay you back. Please, save me..."

Nancy rolled her eyes in disbelief. "Fine, we'll talk about it when it's light..."

"No!"

Vivian yelled in panic. "It can't wait until morning! They are holding me opposite the hotel right now. They said if they don't get the money within ten minutes, they will... they will do something to me..."
