Medical Genius's Unspeakable Marriage novel Chapter 898

Chapter 898 A Scammer

When Matthew and Sasha came back home that night, they saw Helen on the sofa, spacing out.

That afternoon, Tate and Minerva asked her out and tried to persuade her into lending them ten million. She kept refusing, but the siblings knelt before her in the end. She couldn’t keep refusing, so she agreed to transfer the money to them. But when she came back and realized what she had done, she was terrified. After all that had happened, she knew Minerva and Tate couldn’t be trusted, so she was worried that something might go wrong.

“What’s wrong, Mom?” Sasha asked, puzzled.

Sasha didn’t believe it. She doesn’t look fine.

A while later, Helen couldn’t take it anymore. “Sasha, can you come here for a second? I need to ask you something.”

Sasha sat beside her. “What’s the matter, Mom?”

Helen took a deep breath and whispered, “I-I have a friend who’s handling a new project recently. If he succeeds, he’ll make hundreds of billions with it. But now he needs money to continue the project’s development, and he needs a few million. What do you think about this investment? I… I need your opinion.”

A frown creased Matthew’s forehead. “That’s a scammer, Helen.”

Sasha nodded. “What kind of project is it? Did you hear it from him? If the project can make that much money, he’d have investors lining up to fund it. He doesn’t need your money, unless he’s a scammer. This is how they scam people out of their money. Don’t fall for it.”

Helen looked horrified. “B-But he’s a foreigner…”

After Matthew saw her off, he whispered, “We might be too late, Sasha. Helen has probably given the money away.”

Sasha’s face fell. “What? Impossible. W-Why didn’t she talk it through with us? No. I have to ask her about it…”

Matthew stopped her. “Don’t. She won’t admit to it now, and you might start a fight.”

That made her panic. “What should we do, then? This is a few million we’re talking about. We can’t just ignore it.”

Matthew gave it some thought. “She doesn’t have that much money in hand, but the pharmacy does. If you want proof, we can check the pharmacy’s accounts tomorrow.”
