Chapter 3 Borrowing Money

After walking out of the gate, Suzy, who was penniless, hesitated for a moment. Then she borrowed two dollars from passers-by and took the bus to the center of Somo City. Looking at the tall buildings in front, the signboard of "The Hughes Group" was printed in front of her. Suzy walked in and came to the front desk. "Hello, I want to meet Mr. Hughes." The receptionist glanced at her as if she had gotten used to this scene. She said disdainfully, "I"m sorry, Miss, but you must make an appointment to meet Mr. Hughes." "Why don"t you call him? Just tell him..." Suzy thought for a moment and continued, "If he leaves irresponsibly after sleeping with me, it will be bad if this kind of dark behavior goes viral on the Internet." The receptionist, who was at the front desk, was stunned. Suzy finally made her meeting with the big boss of the business circle in Somo City, Evan Hughes, nicknamed "Satan." He was only twenty-five years old, starting from scratch to establish the Hughes Group, which had been listed for three years. Now, the industries under the banner were worldwide. A cry came from inside when Suzy arrived at the office door and was about to knock and walk in. "Mr. Hughes, I"m sorry. I was wrong. I drugged you because I was possessed. I"ve been your secretary for five years. Please consider our past connection and don"t ban me from the industry. Please." "Get out," the man said in a low voice. After a long while, the office door was pushed open, and a woman came out crying. Suzy was a bit surprised, and then she pushed the door open and walked in. "Hello, Mr. Hughes, I"m Suzy Carters," she said indifferently. Evan was sitting on the sofa; a noble and cold aura was exuded from head to toe. He glanced at her indifferently and said coldly, "What do you mean by the irresponsible scumbag? Miss Carters, if I remember correctly, you were willing last night. Why do I need to be responsible for that?" Suzy pursed her lips unhurriedly, "What Mr. Hughes said makes sense, but no matter how thought, I feel I"m at a disadvantage." "So? You came to me and want me to take responsibility for you? Do you want to take this opportunity to be my girlfriend? I advise you not to waste your efforts or end up worse than the woman just now." Suzy blinked. "No, I came to borrow money from you." "Borrow money?" Evan raised his eyes to glance at her before he said, "Fuck off." Suzy said, "Mr. Hughes, I don"t have the money to buy birth control pills. I believe you don"t want to cause any trouble, do you?" Evan was speechless. He narrowed his eyes slightly and took out his phone to dial his assistant"s number. In a low voice, he said, "Buy a box of birth control pills." This time, it was Suzy who was speechless. The situation fell into a deadlock. Suzy thought for a moment, then took out the jade pendant from her pocket. "Well, it"s not too much to ask Mr. Hughes to lend me some money with this important proof, is it?" Looking at the jade pendant, Evan"s pupils contracted, and he immediately stood up. Just as he was about to reach her, Suzy took a step back and waved the jade pendant in his hand. In a soft voice, he said, "Mr. Hughes, stop there. It won"t be good if you accidentally break it." A gloomy atmosphere filled the office. "How dare you threaten me?" "It"s not a threat. I truly want to borrow money from you. I will return it to you." Evan stared at her. After a while, he asked, "How much do you want?" "100 million dollars..." Suzy felt a little guilty. She had no true friends in the entertainment circle, and the only capable person who could lend her such a sum was Evan Hughes.
