"Mom, don't panic. I'll find a way and obtain the money," said Lily gently as she bit her lips.
"How? How are you going to obtain the money?" Samantha was extremely anxious. "It’s close to a hundred million! Previously, you could earn from live-streaming but you haven't done it in a year! And your face..."
As Samantha said that, she noticed Lily's extremely darkened expression and immediately realized her slip of the tongue before shutting up.
She knew she had touched a sore spot with her daughter.
Lily did not mind all these as her mind was in a mess at that moment. She was adamant not to sell the mansion. However, even if she were to borrow from someone, no one would borrow her the money since it was close to 100 million after all!
"Yes!" Lily clapped her hands and quickly headed to her bedroom. She took out an exquisite box from her closet.
The gold-plated box looked luxurious and within it was a pair of crystal shoes. It was the Worship of Crystal!
"Lily, are you planning to sell this pair of shoes?" Samantha could not help but let out a sigh with her pity-filled eyes. "This is your favorite pair of shoes!"
Up until now, Samantha still did not know that Darryl was the one who gave Lily this pair of shoes. She only knew that Lily had carefully kept it and was unwilling to wear it.
Lily bit her lip and stared at the Worship of Crystal before she gently said, "Mom, don’t worry.”
Truth be told, Lily was very unwilling to sell the pair of shoes because every time she saw them, she would think about Darryl, how he used to protect her, take great care of her, and about every single moment she spent with Darryl.
She was extremely unwilling to sell it, but had no choice!
On the other side, Carter Mansion.
The moment they arrived at the room, Jewel was lying in bed in good spirits but her face was still a little pale.
"Jewel!" Darryl excitedly walked over and sat beside her bed before tightly holding Jewel's hand. "You’re finally awake!"
Darryl had not slept well for the past few days from being worried sick for Jewel.
Jewel forced a smile and feebly said, “ Mister, I thought I'd died and won’t be able to serve you in the future!"
'Silly girl. She’s so badly injured, yet still thinks about serving me.' Darryl was heartbroken and touched at the same time before patting her head. "Don’t say such silly things. It’s my fault that I didn't protect you. Don't worry. I won’t allow anybody to hurt you going forward."
Darryl then let out a sigh of relief before seriously saying, "By the way, Jewel, who hit you back then? Is it a stranger or someone you know?"
