Still Wanna Escape After Stealing My Heart? novel Chapter 2322

"Let's run away! I really don't want to have any relations with the Shaw family anymore. James, I just want to be together with you. Oh, right, James, I have something that I have been keeping from you. Don't blame me for it, alright? You also know that at my age, it's impossible for me to pour my heart out to you. However, now, I won't ever hide anything from you anymore." Gloria looked at James incomparably apologetically.

James was slightly surprised. "What's the matter? What are you hiding from me?"

Gloria's face turned slightly red. She mumbled for a while. "I have another house in the suburbs and I have kept a lot of jewelry there. It's the jewelry that was given to me by my daughter and also some that my mother had kept back then. Those jewelry are worth at least more than ten million dollars. We'll take that jewelry and run away. The jewelry is enough for us to use for the rest of our lives. Alright?"

James was stunned for a long while after hearing that. "You, yourself, actually still have more than ten million dollars worth of assets?"

Gloria nodded. "Mm-hmm."

In fact, she did not have it. She was a person that had never cared about money but only the relationship with her family. All this while, no matter if it was money that was given to her by her daughter or her nephew, Marcus, she basically refused them all. To Gloria, money was dispensable. She only wanted to have a relationship with her family. What mattered to Gloria the most was to be able to see her daughter have a very good life, have a husband that loves her very much, and have three healthy children.

Gloria had been living a very disciplined and frugal life. Even if she was teaching the children piano, she only collected a very small fee from them. That was because she did not teach the children from wealthy families. She only provided help to those children who loved music but had no money to pay for lessons.

Therefore, Gloria's savings was less than 10,000 dollars, let alone more than ten million dollars. The fact she said that she still had jewelry that was worth millions in the suburbs was clearly a trap she set up for James. That was the only way she could attract James' entire gang, and then have them all arrested in one fell swoop.

"Does y-your father, no, no, no, Old Master Shaw know that place?" James asked exploratively.

"He doesn't know," said Gloria.

She sighed and then her tone became miserable. "He had never acknowledged me as his daughter since I was a child.

When I turned eighteen, my mother died, I had no money for college, and I became a homeless orphan. I really had no way out anymore at that time. After that, my adoptive parents adopted me. My adoptive parents were farmers. They had never left that big mountain all their lives. They had always been farmers who were honest and kept to their lanes. If I were to say whether I have parents or not, I do."
