Wade never knew that his father had entertained the idea of throwing him out yesterday.

If he had known, he definitely wouldn't have dared to ask like that.

Susie and her grandmother went out as well, and Craig went along too. Ryan took on the role of the driver.

When Zachariah arrived home, he figured that his brother had already gone to the office, so now he should have some time to check his phone.

So he sent a message in the family group again.

Ryan: "Guys, our big brother has a secret, do you want to hear it?"

Michael: "What is something we didn't know? Like when he used to wear his underwear inside out when he was a child?"

Jonathan: "Big brother had no secrets that we didn't know."

Judah: "This statement cannot be said too confidently."

Kellen, who had just finished the closed-door meeting, said, "Huh? Uncle has a secret? Tell me about it."

Ryan secretly counted: 1, 2, 3...

Ding dong~

Dear esteemed VIP customer, your account ending in 8888 at the Wealth Bank has received a total income of 10,000,000 dollars. The remaining balance is...

On that day, Ryan followed suit, spoke with a panting breath, and received a total of one billion in hush money from his elder brother.

Upon seeing this, Craig couldn't resist keeping some secret money. So, he also sent a message to Martin.

Craig's private message: "Recently, there's a project that I wanted to invest in, asking for a billion from me."

Martin: Which project? I can do it.

Craig: "About how to supplement calcium."

Martin was spechless.

Never in a million years did I expect that his father would be such an old man.

What happened to being serious and not joking around?

Martin: Did you check Mom's account?

Craig immediately replied, "No, hit my account."

Martin first made a transfer, and then took a screenshot of the transaction record and sent it to Craig: "Do we need to send this bill to Mom?"

Craig: "..."

Although he extorted one billion, he also left a handle in his son's hands.

If he dared to be greedy or share the morning's events with other sons again, this bill would end up in the hands of the old lady.

Craig regretfully put an end to the idea of continuing the investment project.

Martin finally managed to plug a loophole.

Before Ryan could launch the next wave of attacks, he took the initiative and killed him in the past, sending Ryan a photo.

In the photo, a child stood by the river, holding a slipper and crying loudly, while the other slipper had slid up to the ankle.

What's even funnier is that his underwear had a big hole in it, exposing half of his butt.

Martin: Suddenly, he pulled out an interesting photo.

Ryan was speechless.

Okay, another opportunity for extortion was also shut down.

The people in the group were still arguing and complaining.

Michael: "Ryan, you are such a tease, just hanging us out like that."

Judah: "If I talk to you again, I'll be a pig."

Paul: "The plane had already flown to Moscow, and you still hadn't even said anything."

Huck: "I finished the new task, and you were still dawdling."

Jonathan: "The scene has changed, but you still haven't said it."

David: "Tsk."

Kellen: "Give me ten minutes."

Martin: "..."

Ten minutes later, Kellen sent a private message: "Uncle, are you okay?"

Martin: "..."

Kellen: "Sorry, I was being impulsive, but yesterday I found a royal gemstone queen crown from the Gralan Royal Family. It would be suitable to keep it as a dowry for Susie in the future..."

Martin: You could be even more abrupt.

This was the first time Martin had experienced such a continuous defeat.

He looked up and glanced at Jinny, who was studying intently on the other side of the office.

I will ask Susie one day if Jinny still has a chance to fully recover as a normal person.

Martin originally thought that Susie's words were exaggerated, but now it seems that there wasn't a single punctuation mark that was false.

How could this happen?

Jinny looked up and asked, "?"

***

Let's talk about Susie later.

After Susie arrived at Zachariah's house, she entered the room holding a large bouquet of flowers and cheerfully said, "Old friend, I've come to see you!"

Zachariah was happily pushed out, and as soon as he saw Susie, he felt very good.

"Susie came!" he pointed to the side, "I was trying to see if I could draw with my left hand..."

Susie took a glance and saw a painting on the table. It only had half a flower painted on it, indicating that she intended to paint flowers. However, her strokes were very clumsy and awkward.

Crooked and twisted, the ethereal beauty of the flowers was not captured. The former freedom and artistic conception are also gone...

Zachariah sighed, "Oh well, it didn't work..."

Susie smiled and said, "Who said that? My old friend drew this very well!"

She picked up the pen and, using the power she had cultivated through drawing symbols, she drew the other half of the flower in one go.

Still a naive brush, it can be seen at a glance that it was drawn by a child, because it carries a hint of the childish and tender feeling unique to children's drawings.

However, when these two halves of a flower are combined, they have a strange beauty, somewhat abstract, blending growth and aging...

Half of the flowers bloomed brilliantly, while the other half showed signs of decay.

Zachariah's eyes widened in astonishment.

Susie said, "Draw another flower stem~"

She boldly made a big stroke, not at all timid. If it were an adult, perhaps they would hesitate, afraid of ruining the artistic conception of this flower.

Susie was not afraid. Not only did she draw the stem, but she also drew leaves, with highly saturated green colors.

Two strokes distinguished the picture, separating light from dark. In an instant, the half of the flower Susie painted seemed to be sprinkled with sunlight, making the contrast with the half of the flower Zachariah painted, which was in the shadow, even more apparent.

Zachariah stared blankly...

At this moment, Evelyn arrived.

Evelyn was Zachariah's favorite disciple, and the Lau family knew her well. So when she came, it was usually like opening the door and coming back to her own home.

She saw Susie drawing at a glance, while the teacher stood dumbfounded on the side.

Evelyn glanced and immediately fell silent.

Ha, what a piece of crap this is.

Especially the half-blossomed flower in the dark area, it is simply indescribable.
