After hanging up the phone, Jane Sampson only saw the WhatsApp messages from Brooke Black before sleep.
Only then did she know that Jillian Carter had met with Christopher Chip alone and gave him one million in cash.
Brooke Black had sent this news to Jane much earlier, but Jane wasnât holding her mobile phone to check WhatsApp at that time, so she didnât know. "Whatâs wrong?" James Black noticed Janeâs unusual expression and asked in a low voice.
"Auntie told me that Jillian Carter met with Christopher Chip alone and gave Christopher Chip one million in cash." Jane said, staring at James with wide eyes.
The surprise on her face was not concealed at all.
"It was anticipated, I just didnât expect that it would be so much." James raised his hand and gently touched Janeâs head.
"The Chip Family loves to cling to people, I thought Jillian Carter would eventually be entangled and have no choice but to settle their usury, but I didnât expect that upon meeting, sheâd give one million directly." Jane was somewhat tongue-tied, "Opening this door, thereâll be countless millions in the future. The Chip familyâs greed, one million, wonât satisfy them, and to them, this one million is too easy to get."
"Auntie said that in the afternoon, Mr. and Mrs. Chip were taken away by the police again, and Christopher Chip escaped, then called Jillian Carter in her office, threatening to find journalists to reveal her identity. Jillian got scared, left work, and met Christopher Chip alone, then took one million in cash from the company safety deposit box and gave it to him."
For the Chip family, being poor for half a lifetime, suddenly getting one million in cash is getting rich overnight for them.
The sudden wealth gap would only make them more shameless, not knowing their limits, and more tightly clinging to Jillian Carter.
"I thought Jillian Carter could hold on for a little while longer." Jane said, "Did she not consider, even if Christopher Chip finds reporters to reveal, would anyone believe it? Would anyone dare to publish such a story?"
Jane spread her hands, "The main point is, doesnât Jillian Carter know, the whole Chip Family canât provide evidence to prove she is Lily Chip, so even if they find reporters, why should she fear? Unless the Carter Family openly admits she is the Chipâs daughter, otherwise, as long as she doesnât admit it, the Chip Family will have no relation with her forever."
"What you can see through, those involved may not have your calmness, nor your astuteness." James Black rubbed Janeâs face, "Even if the Chip family finds a lawyer to sue Jillian Carter, forcing her to support her biological parents, itâs as you said, the Chip family canât provide evidence to prove Jillian Carter is their biological daughter."
"Previously, I asked Nina Rice, she said, as an adult, Jillian Carter has the right to refuse a paternity test with the Chip family, and if the Chip family wants to sue Jillian, they need to provide proof of blood relation with Jillian." Thus, Jane dared to easily let the Chip family know about Jillian Carterâs matters.
What she initially thought was merely to have the Chip family entangle and disgust Jillian Carter.
But unexpectedly, Jillian Carter let the situation develop to this extent, and unexpectedly, due to her guilty conscience, in a rush to break free from the Chip familyâs entanglement, she took out the first one million so easily.
"Letâs not talk about her anymore, whatever fortune awaits her is her own path to walk, now, close your eyes, sleep, we have to get up early tomorrow morning." James Black pulled Jane into his arms, seeing her still blinking and staring at him.
