Chapter 277
Two million was not a big amount for Aliyah, so she paid it off. After the men left, she went over to untied Charles from the rotating table.
"Aliyah, glad to see you are here. Otherwise, I would've been a human dart board tonight." Charles was relieved.
Aliyah looked grave as she said, "Didn't I tell you to drop gambling? How dare you?"
Charles ducked his head in embarrassment. He found it strange because those men were supposed at the bar tonight. He didn't expect to meet them at the restaurant he purposely picked to avoid them.
Could the ugly kid be right about those karma things? But how did she know that? NôvelDrama.Org (C) content.
After a while, Charles came back to his senses and repented to Aliyah guiltily. "I'm such a loser. Are you happy now? Remember the mudslide? I had a high fever and almost became an idiot when I ran around for help under pouring rain. You must hate a loser and want to get rid of me, right?"
Aliyah had to yield every time when he mentioned that accident.
How could she be angry with someone who saved her life?
"Charles, come on. I just don't think gambling is good. How about this? I'll give you five million to start some business, and if you lose it again, it's still on me." Aliyah suggested.
Charles nodded reluctantly, "Alright."
That night, Bonnie discovered the bump on Erika's forehead.
After figuring it through, she was furious and planned to go to Charles for an explanation.
"Mummy," Erika quickly stopped her, "I'm fine. Don't worry."
"How could you be fine with such a bump as big as a fist?" Bonnie was angry.
She had her bottom line - her children. Bonnie would fight with her life for protecting Erika.
Erika grabbed her arm and whispered, "Mommy, didn't you tell me to keep a low profile in Grant's house and not to get any attention?"
Why did her mom forget all about this?
Hearing this, Bonnie's anger was quenched.
When they moved to the Sunshine Villa, Bonnie repeatedly told them to keep a low profile in Grant's house. The lesser noticed them, the lesser chances for them to be stalked. When she found Natan, Bonnie could run away easily.
Bonnie felt guilty for not helping Erika, rubbing her forehead while saying, "Does it hurt? Mommy will take you to the hospital for an examination to see if there is a concussion."
"Okay." Erika nodded.
Bonnie drove Erica to the hospital. After confirming it was fine, they returned to the villa.
The round trip took them almost three hours, but no one in the Sunshine Villa noticed.
That wasn't a surprise. After all, the servants were sleeping. Who would care about this?
Bonnie carried Erica back to the children's room and coaxed her to sleep. She was exhausted and when she walked back to the room, Bonnie jumped directly onto the bed with the light off. In the next second, there were muffled groans of the man in the dark and a crackling sound!
