Chapter 810: Chapter 808: 50 Million Dollars Compensation

"Sisters are the best."

Aria Rowlett sighed softly, put down her fork, and the smile on her face faded considerably.

She tilted her head back and finished the remaining beer in one gulp.

"Baby, let me ask you something."

"Hmm, go ahead."

Aria rubbed her brow, frowned in silence for a moment, and then asked, "If I told you that I accepted that check, would you think... that I’m very greedy?"

"Should I have torn up the check in front of him and told him not to trample on my dignity with a check? Actually, I did think about doing that at the time, but then I thought, why shouldn’t I accept it?"

"He dared to send it, why shouldn’t I dare to accept it? Just to show off that I’m proud and have self-esteem, I should reject 50 million dollars when it’s offered to me? That would be stupid."

"Anyway, I probably won’t see him again after this. Since he felt guilty and willing to make amends, I’ll accept the money. To be honest, there will be plenty of times when I’ll need money in the future. With that 50 million dollars, I can solve a lot of problems."

"Besides, I’m trying to raise funds for a script right now, and I’m short of money. His money came just in time."

Joanna Lawrence listened to her and thought for a moment, "If it were me..."

"Hmm, what would you do?" Aria stared at her intently.

Joanna thought for a moment and then honestly said, "I would also take the money."

Tearing up checks is something that only happens in stories about overbearing CEOs.

Who could withstand the temptation of 50 million dollars?

Especially when it’s offered to you on a silver platter.

Only a fool would reject this huge sum of money for the sake of so-called dignity.

However, the man who had a one-night stand with Aria last night must have a very complicated identity.

There aren’t many people who can give 50 million dollars at a time.

For a casual fling like theirs, even if an ordinary man was willing to compensate, giving several hundred thousand dollars would already be incredible.

million dollars...

Indeed, it’s a huge sum.

Although you can’t tell much just by looking at the money.

But the fact that the man was willing to give Aria so much money should mean he likes her a bit.

Or at the very least, he was very satisfied with her.

But he didn’t even show his face, letting his assistant bring the money, obviously not wanting Aria to know his identity.

Or perhaps, once she saw him, Aria would know who he was.

So Joanna guessed that maybe she knew the man too.

Perhaps he was a well-known figure.

"Do you really think so?" Aria seemed to have put down some psychological burden, and her face looked better than before.

"Yes," Joanna nodded, "50 million dollars, not 5,000. I think no ordinary person can resist this temptation. After all, like you said, he gave it willingly, so why not take it?"

"Yeah, that’s what I thought too."

Aria’s smile returned to her face, "So I accepted it without hesitation. Hahaha, do you know what kind of expression Luke had on his face at the time? I think he thought I’d be angry and refuse. But in the end, I happily accepted the money."

"Anyway, his face turned black all of a sudden."

Joanna tried to imagine the scene and couldn’t help but laugh.

"I think Luke must have read too many overbearing CEO novels, otherwise, why would he think you would refuse the money?"
