Chapter 636 Different
“Money?” Marcus bellowed as though she cracked a joke. “How much are you offering?”
“A million,” Yara answered.
“A million? Yara, are you kidding me right now? That’s just change for the beggars.” He warned, “I managed to survive through so much hardship, even ending up being a cripple. Don’t you offer me such a small amount like that ever again.”
She never thought he would be so greedy. Despite being furious, she couldn’t rebuke his words.
“How much do you want then?”
“I want thirty million.” He drawled out, “Nothing lesser than that. Else I’ll expose all your bad deeds to the public and, of course, reveal the truth to the Bowers family. I want to see how the Bowers will treat you once they know about the truth.”
“Don’t.” Yara shouted, “You can’t do that!”
She panicked, thinking she would lose everything when she speculated Natalie was still alive, but Kenneth’s attitude didn’t change. That meant Kenneth and a majority of the Bowers family members didn’t know about her past.
Kenneth could never find out about the bad deeds she did before. Otherwise, he would retract his support for her immediately.
Yara’s reaction was what Marcus wanted.
“I have given you a chance. Ten million, and I won’t expose your actions. Don’t worry. I’ll quietly leave Chanaea once I have the money in my account,” Marcus said casually.
“I’ll give it to you.” Yara sucked in a breath. “But it’ll take some time. Give me some time, and I’ll think of a way.”
Hearing her agreement, Marcus let out a gleeful laugh. “Excellent! I’ll wait for your good news then.”
The minute the call ended, Yara plucked the Bluetooth headset from her ear and threw it out of her rolled-down car window.
How dare a scum like Marcus threaten me?
Ten million is nothing to me, but he is a greedy bastard. If I give him ten million this time, he’ll extort more money from me every time he needs it. His existence is like a ticking time bomb.
A gleam of hatred flashed across her eyes as she gripped the steering wheel tighter.
“You need to be alive to take my money, Marcus.” The corners of her mouth quirked into an evil smile. “You managed to survive with a limp six years ago. You won’t be as lucky now. I’ll make sure of it.”
The next day, Natalie and Samuel went to work as usual.
Xavian, Clayton, Franklin, and Sophia huddled in a corner in the kindergarten.
Clayton said in a grave tone, “Franklin, Sophia, we found our biological father.”
“Really?” Franklin asked curiously, “I’m curious what kind of man Mommy likes. Can you show me his photo?”
Sophia nodded her head, agreeing with Franklin’s request. “I want to see it too.”
Xavian and Clayton didn’t plan to hide it from Franklin and Sophia, so taking out their phones and showed Marcus’ photo to them. “This is our biological father.”
Two furry heads leaned closer to the phone.
All they saw was an average-looking guy with a hostile look.
No matter how they look at it, Samuel was a hundred times better than him. There was nothing he could compare to Samuel.
“This is your biological father?” Sophia blinked her eyes slowly with confusion. “It’s weird, Xavian, Clayton! You don’t look like him at all.”
