Chapter 72: Chapter 72: Spending Money to Hit You
Translator: 549690339
Magâs face was insured for over 60 million dollars.
In comparison, the value of Xavieraâs life was worth far less.
âLily, donât say anymore⊠Sis, donât think too much about it. Dad just bought me full-body insurance out of love for me. My face is only insured for 60 million dollars⊠Your life is valuable too, really valuableâŠâ
Mag didnât know how to explain without hurting Xavieraâs feelings. Tears almost welled up in her eyes when she took out a check, wrote down a number, and said with blurry vision, âSis, hereâs 600,000 dollars, just take it and spend it. Consider it compensation from me. Whether you believe it or not, I never thought about killing you. How could I dare to kill someoneâŠâ
600,000 dollars? Is her life worth only 600,000 dollars?
Xaviera was grateful that she didnât die today. Otherwise, she would be choked with anger after learning that Mag was getting rid of her life for 600,000 dollars.
Slowly she took the check, her smile meaningful, âSo, this 600,000 dollars is your compensation for attempted murder?â
Magâs voice choked, âSis, donât say it like that. I donât mean to say your life is worth only 600,000 dollars, itâs just that Dad says some money shouldnât be spent recklesslyâŠâ
âStop it, Xaviera! Just be satisfied.â Lily couldnât bear it any longer, âYouâre just here for the 600,000 dollars, arenât you? A woman from the countryside dares to show off in front of Mag. Disgusting! Let me make it clear today. 600,000 dollars can buy your life! In fact, your life isnât even worth 600,000 dollars.
Mag is just being kind-hearted. Donât be greedy!â
Xaviera raised her eyebrows and pressed a button on her phone.
â600,000 to buy my life. Fine.â
Lily continued with arrogance, âShameless! Youâre just taking advantage of Magâs kindness. A life worth less than dirt, and yet you dare to compare yourself to Miss Mag! Take a look in the mirror and see if youâre worthy!â
Tap-tap-tap. Before she could finish, there were uniform footsteps from downstairs. Everyone instinctively turned to look.
Outside, a circle of bodyguards was formed, with the leader of the bodyguards walking respectfully to Xaviera, âMiss Xaviera, weâve brought the things you requested. â
Xaviera showed a satisfied smile, âGood, letâs get started.â
As soon as her voice fell, the bodyguards instantly separated Mag and Moore Mamet. The bodyguards formed a circle, surrounding Mag in the middle. Moore and Lily were panicking and shouting outside, but Xaviera ignored them. She took out a check, filled out a few numbers, and gently threw it in front of Mag.
â60 million dollars, little sis. Make sure to keep it safe.â
A bad feeling crept into Magâs heart, âWhat⊠what are you trying to do?â
âNothing much.â Xaviera sat on a chair brought by the bodyguard and leisurely sipped hand-ground coffee, âIâm just using 60 million dollars to buy your face. Alright, letâs start.â
What?!
Magâs pupils shrank. She thought she understood the meaning behind
Xavieraâs words, but deep down, she didnât believe she would actually do it. Fear took over her when the bodyguard grabbed her arm and swung powerful blows at her face.
With just one slap, her well-maintained face instantly swelled red.
Moore Mametâs scalp tingled as he watched, âXaviera, make them stop! Mag is still your sister, how could you treat her like this!â
Xaviera played with the fruit knife she had found in the clutter downstairs, and said absentmindedly, âHow can this be considered bullying? Iâm paying for it. After all, if she can use 600,000 dollars to buy my life, why canât I use 60 million dollars to buy her face? At least Iâm being more generous.â
The leading bodyguard chuckled, âMiss Xaviera, you donât have to waste your breath on people like this. If Miss Mag Evans doesnât want to be hit, we can just release the surveillance footage. I wonder what will happen to Magâs reputation if the news of her deliberately plotting to kill her sister gets out?
Her image in the eyes of the students will probably be greatly discounted.â
Xaviera nodded, âYouâre right. My sister is someone who values her reputation the most, so letâs just keep hitting her. The surveillance footage absolutely canât be leaked; otherwise, how will my sister go on at school?â
Lily furiously called out, âXaviera, you bitchâ!â
With a whoosh, the fruit knife in Xavieraâs hand flew like it had eyes, firmly sticking into the wall behind Lily.
âWhile Iâm still in a relatively good mood, just shut your mouth.â
âXaviera!â
Moore Mamet shuddered as he stared at the fruit knife, unable to understand why Xaviera had become like this.
Slap after slap landed on Magâs face until she was nearly unconscious. Her face swelled like a risen steamed bun, and only then did Xaviera lose interest and waved her hand, âAlright, stop..â
