Chapter 105

105 A Million Dollars
Margaret replied with a smile, “Alright, Adam. I understand, thank you.”
It would mean a lot if someone could help them at such a moment. But it was expected that people
wouldn’t help them. Margaret knew that too well.
Adam tried to convince her, “You shouldn’t reopen the clinic. Margaret, honestly, your won’t be able to
reopen the clinic. If you need some money to live or eat, perhaps we
could still help you out in secret.”
Seeing how he said they’d help her in secret, Margaret could tell what was actually going on. Five
thousand dollars wouldn’t mean much to families like theirs.
It might not even be enough for Wanda to treat her guests to a meal. But she just didn’t want to lend
her that money, nor did she want anybody else to do that for her.
People usually described mother-in-laws as evil. Little did many know that some daughter-in-laws were
the actual coldhearted ones.
Wynter’s eyes grew dark. Placing her hand on the table, she tapped on the table randomly. She
seemed unbothered, but she exuded a dark aura. Only her eyes were bright, which looked dangerous
amidst the darkness.
Wolf’s eyes gradually turned bloodshot. He was just about to get up. The Scott family was really
insufferable.
Wynter reached out to press him down casually. “Just eat.

There was no expression on Wolf’s youthful face. He could only gesture with his hands. Placing her
cutlery down, Wynter wiped the corner of her l*ps with a napkin. Don’t worry, we’ll get them back.”
Instantly, Wolf became excited. Sometimes, Margaret couldn’t understand the secret codes between
these two. But she understood this. “Wolf has really grown up. He
wants to avenge Grandma.”
“Hmph!” Nobody could bully Margaret!
Margaret had a warm smile. “You can avenge me. But don’t get into a fight, or you’ll

be detained at the police station.”
“Hmm…” Wolf became defeated. He wanted to beat Wanda up before bringing that man Adam down.
Not getting to fight would place limits on what he could do to
them.
Wynter could tell what he was thinking. Chuckling, she said something indirectly.” Grandma’s right.
Fighting is illegal. But for some people, it would be even more painful for them to lose everything
instead of suffering from physical pain.”
Wolf suddenly raised his head. His eyes lit up. Wynter wouldn’t talk much about things like that in front
of Margaret. She merely checked her bank account on her phone and changed the topic. “Grandma,
look at this.”
When Margaret saw the balance, she thought something was wrong with her eyes. After putting on her
glasses, she counted the digits again. Only then did she speak with her eyes widened. “A million
dollars? Wynter, where did you get all that money
from?”
Wynter only showed Margaret the amount she used as her pocket money. She knew that it would
terrify Margaret to see an even larger sum.
She spoke with a lower voice, “That friend of mine introduced a patient to me. The patient is from a rich
family. This money is from all the medical fees that they paid and our trip to the Scott family yesterday.”
Margaret was shocked to hear that. “Is the consultation fee that high?”
“Do you not know what kind of family the Scott family is? Wouldn’t it be embarrassing for them to pay
just a small amount?” Wynter simply came up with anything just so that she could make Margaret
believe her. “Of course, it wasn’t just the consultation fee. Wolf and I sold them some herbal medicine.”
After hearing his name, he nodded profusely.
Margaret was happy and shocked. Looking at the balance on the phone, she couldn’t. help but smile,
especially after knowing that the money came from clean hands.
“A million dollars! It’s actually a million dollars!”
“Yes, Grandma. It’s
a million dollars. We don’t need extra money for work or reopening the clinic anymore.” Wynter smiled
softly. “Spend it on anything you need.

We’ll be even richer than now after we reopen the Empathy Clinic.”
Hearing her granddaughter’s words, Margaret suddenly felt hopeful about their lives. from now on. “We
can earn even more than one million?”
