Chapter 368 - 367: Completely Devastated
"Still wrong, keep guessing." Bella Acker shook her head triumphantly.
"Two hundred thousand?" Damian Sinclair had initially said a lower amount to make her happy and satisfy her sense of achievement in earning money, but now he was genuinely surprised.
"More than that," Bella Acker said mysteriously and proudly, "They ended up settling twenty-six thousand as my pay, and I paid Shannon ten thousand and still have twenty-five thousand left. Am I awesome or what?"
For Damian Sinclair, anything over twenty thousand wasn’t much, but for some reason, hearing that she could earn over twenty thousand in just a few months made him happier than if he had made two million himself.
He even felt a bit proud.
Bella Acker looked at Damian with sparkling eyes, just waiting for his affirmation and praise.
Damian Sinclair curved his lips slightly and said, "Bella, this is surprising to me, you’re amazing."
Though it was just a simple sentence, Bella Acker felt incredibly satisfied. It seemed that the hard work over several months, where sometimes she could only sleep two or three hours a day, meant nothing.
Bella Acker took out a wallet from her bag, pulled out a newly issued bank card from inside, and said, "There’s twenty-five thousand left on this card, minus the money to take Aunt Sienna to the hospital for a check-up and preschool for Ethan, there’s still quite a bit left. I’m going to save it up, so after buying a house for Aunt Sienna and Ethan, I’ll have enough to support you too."
Damian Sinclair’s foot almost hit the brake.
He steadied the car, raised an eyebrow at her, "Support me?"
"Yes." Bella Acker nodded, "Even if your business fails and you go bankrupt, I have the money to support you. So you don’t need to feel so much pressure at work anymore. I’m here to back you up."
This could barely count as a love confession, but why did it sound so awkward to him?
Was she planning to keep him?
Damian Sinclair was a bit speechless, never in his twenty-eight years had he heard a woman say she wanted to keep him.
After a long silence, Damian Sinclair said, "Then I’ll wait for Bella to take care of me, but don’t go back on your word."
"Don’t worry, I promise I won’t go back on my word." Bella Acker patted her chest, filled with heroic spirit, and said, "If you’re not assured, take this bank card. It’s my salary card, all my future salaries will be deposited here."
She actually handed over her salary card!
Damian Sinclair’s mouth twitched slightly, just as they reached the traffic light and were waiting at the red light. He slowly stopped the car and turned to look at her, "Bella, I need fifty thousand for a custom suit, and a Patek Philippe platinum watch 5002p costs seventeen million; you need to work harder to support me."
Bella Acker’s eyes widened in shock at the prices he casually mentioned.
Damian Sinclair saw her shocked expression and found it amusing, feeling somewhat satisfied. He thought, of course, it’s better for him to take care of his woman. As for her work, let her do it if she likes, as a pastime.
Bella Acker suddenly reached over, took his wrist, pointed at the watch on his hand, and asked, "How much is this watch?"
"Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore 26473BC.ZZ.8043, I don’t remember the precise amount, maybe over eleven million." With the traffic light turning from red to green at the intersection, Damian Sinclair answered her question while slightly turning the steering wheel with one hand to drive the car out.
Bella Acker released his wrist and looked at him as if he were some kind of monster.
