Spoiled by the President novel Chapter 610

No matter what choices he made, he would be losing Lucy as a long-term financial support.

If he was given a chance to choose, he would not have chosen either option.

The best plan would be to keep to what he had been doing all along — asking Lucy for money whenever he liked.

Nevertheless, those men were pretty insistent in reminding him that they would kill him on the spot if he did not agree to do what they wanted.

After all, they had influential backgrounds and were not someone Fourth Cecil wanted to mess with. All he could do was to follow their orders.

However, back at the warehouse, when he heard Lucy said that she had a collection of jewelry and antiques at her house, he was moved by greed.

How amazing would it be if he could hoard all of that money to himself?

He did not dare to defy those bullies who asked for compensation back then because of his poor financial status.

Though if he had all that money, he had no one to be afraid of!

Not only that, he could use those cash to get himself out of the country, escaping everything that tried to tie him down here. What did it matter if they found that he had killed someone? They would not be able to find him anyway.

Besides, he knew that those jewelry and jade stones definitely cost much more than just 20 million yuan.

That was one of the reasons why he kidnapped Lucy.

Money made the world go round. What more could you say about someone who loved money as much as he did?

When it was time for him to escape, he certainly would not keep his daughter by his side.

If he managed to sneak out of the country, he would be a free man!

A mad and deranged look graced his face at this thought.

He knew what he was doing right now was risky, and there was a huge chance he would ruin all of the plans he had made before this, but it was too late to turn back now.

If he did not get his hands on that money, he would not be able to flee the country even if he killed Lucy.

The only option left for him then was to kill himself, but he did not want to die.

That was why he decided to gamble.

Fourth Cecil had lost a lot of money these past years on gambling. He was addicted to the practice, so it was not surprising to find that he would take the risk rather than give up in a moment like this.

At last, he agreed to Lucy’s request.

He pulled out Lucy’s phone but did not hand it over to her. Instead, he ordered her to unlock the phone while he held it up.

“What’s his name?” he asked.

Lucy paused and said, “‘His Uncle’.”

Fourth Cecil was dumbfounded.

What?

Whose uncle was he now?

Lucy looked a little embarrassed, and she gave him an awkward smile. “It’s how we have fun. We’re a couple, you know?”

Fourth Cecil was speechless.

Lucy was kicking herself over this. She had changed Joel’s name because he was always bullying her, and she wanted so much to tell him off but never got the guts to actually do it.

The only thing she could do was to change his name on her phone to “His Uncle.”

That was such a gratifying moment for her.

When Fourth Cecil found the name on the phone, he dialed the number and passed her the phone.

Joel was waiting for any news his men might be bringing him. However, it seemed as if Fourth Cecil had vanished into thin air. Nobody could figure out how he accomplished that and where he was right now.

Joel was getting desperate and aggravated, but he was now more convinced than ever that Lucy’s disappearance had something to do with Fourth Cecil.

His phone rang just then, pulling him away from his worries.

He had initially thought it was his subordinates who had finally found something useful, but he was taken aback when he picked the phone up.

The screen of his phone showed that it was Lucy calling him.

The car then launched in the direction of Villa Orchid at the speed of a flying arrow.

Fourth Cecil tied Lucy up again once they were in the house.

He bound her by the bedpost to prevent her from doing anything suspicious. Then, he stuffed a piece of cloth into her mouth to make sure she could not scream for help as he upended every room in the house.

Lucy could not do anything else as she had already done everything that she could. The only thing she could do now was to wait and see if Joel could get here in time.

Fourth Cecil found the check for 20 million yuan in the bag she had mentioned to him. After that, he went to the storage unit in the house and found all the jewelry and antiques she told him about.

In reality, Lucy came to know about the valuables in the house when she stumbled upon them accidentally the last time she was here.

Joel had told her this was the house he had prepared for her and her mother. Who was Joel Foster?

He was known in his circle for being an endlessly generous Young Master.

Since he knew that Lucy was the one for him, he definitely would not treat her badly.

That was why he had already furnished the house with extravagant jewelry before she even agreed to move into the house.

As for all the antiques, they were all for her mother whom he heard liked old paintings and calligraphy.

She had abandoned the interest as she grew older and when their businesses failed.

That did not mean she had lost the interest and her ability to admire these works of art.

Joel wanted more than anything to be with Lucy, so it was natural for him to please her mother in all the ways he could think of.

That was why he spent a large sum of money purchasing all these priceless antiques for her.

Among the collection were books, paintings, and jade pieces.

The jade jewelry set he bought Mama Katz was one of them. It was purchased at an exorbitant price.

All of those things were stored inside a room, and Lucy knew about this then.

At this moment, Fourth Cecil was raiding that aforementioned room. The sight of multiple bags filled to the brim with valuables was enough to make his eyes go red.
