Chapter 44
"Yeah mom, where did the money come from?" Xena ran over and endearingly called Fiona "mom".
Fiona was stunned for a moment before looking excited. "Girl, what did you call me? Didn’t you call me
Aunty before this?"
Xena became shy and said in embarrassment, "Aunty, I'm sorry. I've been wanting to call you 'mom' for
some time, but I was never brave enough to do so. I accidentally did what I've been wanting to do just
now!"
"Hey, that's great, girl. You should call me 'mom' and not 'aunty' then. Your dad and I like you, so just
call m e 'mom' from now on. You've been in a serious relationship with Ben and are going to get
married someday anyway, aren't you?"
Fiona was so happy that the smile on her face was extremely bright.
"Mom, you haven't told me, where did the money come from? Why is there so much money? Could it
be that there’s a rich Master somewhere trying to marry my sister and giving this as dowry?" Ben asked
excitedly. I t seemed like he really wanted his sister to marry a rich guy so that his family would be able
to live better again.
"No, it's not dowry!"
Fiona forced a smile before looking at Fane and said," It’s Fane’s money for Kylie. There's 950
thousand bucks here, he should be giving this amount!"
"He gave this?"
Ben looked back at Fane with a peculiar gaze. "Could h e really have withdrawn this much money?
Does being a soldier pay this much?"
“You don’t know this, but I’ve heard that those who leave the army will get compensation. Those who
spent a shorter time in the army could get about 100 to 200 thousand bucks so since Fane spent five
years in the army, he should be getting more!"
"If this bastard could get a million bucks, I think he must’ve achieved meritorious service in the army.
Otherwise he wouldn't be able to get this much!"
Fiona smiled and lifted the heavy bag while saying," This bastard is a bit compassionate after all. He
brought some money back for us as compensation. If h e died at war, we could've gotten nothing!"
Ben nodded. "Since he had the decency to bring money over, that’s alright of him. However, Fane,
don’t you dare think that making me call you my brother-in-law is this easy!"
"The money is for Selena to buy groceries and register Kylie for school. Selena should be keeping
this!” Fane said coldly while looking at Fiona's grip on the bag of cash.
“You don’t need this much money for groceries and school, do you? Even if you're looking at a fancy
kindergarten, it should cost about 10 or 20 thousand bucks per semester, shouldn't it?" Fiona said.
“How much does the best one cost?" Fane asked Selena.
"It must be about 50 thousand bucks, but that's for a year!"
Selena forced a smile and said, "Is it really necessary t o go to such a good school?”
"Of course, Kylie must go to a better school!"
Fane nodded and stared at Fiona.
Fane's gaze was threatening; even Fiona did not dare look straight at him.
"Fine, fine, here's 100 thousand bucks for Kylie’s school fees and the living expenses for now. When
you're out of money, take some from me!"
"I'll hold onto the money, otherwise, I won't feel secure about it!"
Fiona counted 100 thousand bucks and passed it to Selena. She was adamant on not handing over the Exclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.
other 850 thousand bucks.
"Mom, there's still 850 thousand bucks and I'm out of money. Since there's so much, you should give
me some, shouldn't you?" "On top of that, Xena's been dating me for so long but
I've yet to buy her anything nice..." Ben said shamelessly.
"Fine, fine, here’s 50 thousand bucks. Go get a gift or something for Xena!"
