Sweet Wife in Hidden Marriage novel Chapter 2

Joanna's sarcasm was too harsh to ignore.

But what she said was true.

Lilian's eyes looked down and tried not to look embarrassed. She said as calmly as she could, "Mr. Palmer, I'm here to borrow money. Zoe's having another health issue tonight. She's in the emergency room now, and I don't have enough money, so..."

Sebastian frowned even harder upon hearing that.

This hateful and boring woman spoiled his fun in the middle of the night just for money.

"I should have known..." Joanna sounded even meaner, "Money is the only reason which could drive Mrs. Palmer here in the middle of the night, but..."

She turned around and hugged Sebastian. "Don't be so petty, Sebastian. She's your wife anyway. I know you were forced into this marriage by your father... but she seemed really worried, why don't you give him a few grands?"

A few grands?

Lilian clenched her fists. They were taking her as a beggar.

She knew how generous Sebastian was to Joanna. He spent millions on her every month.

"Lend me 100 thousand yuan, Sebastian. I promise I'll return it to you soon."

She had been called Mrs. Palmer for three years, yet she had never got a penny from Mr. Palmer or his family. This was the first time she asked Sebastian for money. The number was way less than he had spent on any of Joanna's clothes. She thought Sebastian would lend it to her.

The next second.

"Lilian, you've crossed the line. I know your daughter is sick, but why don't you figure out the solution by yourself? What do you expect me to do? Shame on you for asking! Why do I have to help you?"

Lilian almost cried when she heard that. It was not because of Sebastian's attitude; she was worried her daughter would die if she couldn't get the money.
