“It’s far from that! There’s only fourteen million, one million less,” Suzie cried with flushed cheeks.
Only fourteen million? Franklin was amused by Suzie’s expression.
“Honey, why don’t you look surprised at all?” Suzie leaned backward and pouted in confusion.
Franklin pinched her ear affectionately and shook his head with a smile.
After what happened at Oriental Tower just now, he wouldn’t be surprised by the five million or the twenty million anymore.
Unaware of the news that her husband was now the owner of a building worth more than a billion, Suzie frowned worriedly and mumbled, “But I was so worried when they suddenly sent us such a huge sum of money.”
“Oh, by the way, there’s this too.”
Saying that, she broke away and turned to take a file from the couch. “This is the memorandum of transfer for Rowan Lane. I called to ask an ex-classmate who’s now working in the Institute of Urban Affairs. He said this piece of land is worth at least eight billion currently!”
A cash of twenty million plus a piece of land worth eight billion. It’s normal for one to be reluctant to give them away!
Putting himself in the others’ shoes, Franklin had an idea all of a sudden.
Seeing Franklin space out, Suzie pouted and complained pettishly, “Hey, I’m talking to you. Are you listening?”
“Yeah, yeah.” Franklin nodded immediately.
A second later, he shrunk his neck with a guilty look. “By the way, what were you saying just now?”
Suzie rolled her eyes at Franklin. “Hmph! I’m in a good mood today so I’ll let you off!”
After pausing for a moment, she pulled a long face and said anxiously, “Honey, do you think we should receive this money? Why would someone send us money for no reason?”
“Of course we should!” Franklin replied affirmatively and pulled Suzie into his arms. “You’ve had a hard time these few years. We should take this money.”
Although he knew the money and land were from Leonard, this Tiger from the South wouldn’t be willing to fork out these gifts if it wasn’t for Jacob.
Since the credit goes to his son, Franklin thought it was reasonable for him to receive the gifts.
“But…” Suzie, who was still unaware of what happened, gazed at Franklin and batted her eyelashes.
Discerning Suzie’s concern, Franklin patted her shoulder and coaxed, “It’s just around one hundred million. Just take it without worry.”
Suzie pursed her lips. “Honey, I realize you’re being bolder these few days.”
“Am I? I don’t think so.”
Franklin blinked and was proud deep down. I have such an outstanding son. I can afford to be bold!
Although he didn’t know how successful Jacob was in these six years, the latter easily gave him a tower worth a billion as a gift. Despite it being a gift from a son to his father, it showed that the son had a successful career!
At this thought, Franklin cuddled Suzie proudly and declared with a delighted look, “Suzie, Jacob presented me with a gift today.”
