Wanted: Billionaire's Wife And Their Genius Twin Babies novel Chapter 79

Ian looked at Jodie as she stared at the bracelet, his face gradually showing some guilty conscience.

"Jodie, do you like it? It's okay if you don't like it. I don't know what you like, but I wanted to get you something as an apology.

Jodie put down her hand and grinned. "No, Ian, I like it."

Ian nodded, but he still stood in the office with no intent to leave.

After a pregnant silence, Jodie asked, "Is there anything else, Ian?"

Ian considered for a long time before nodding. "Yes."

Jodie smiled. "Ian, you can just tell me."

Ian waited a while more before he told Jodie, "I transferred 30 million pounds from the finance department."

Jodie's smile froze immediately.

She jumped up from her seat in a shock. "What! Ian, you took 30 million from the company?!"

Ian nodded without any expression of worry or guilt. "Don't worry, it's just 30 million pounds, right? When I have the money, I will return it to the company. Please don't tell dad or mom."

Supporting herself with her hands on the table, Jodie said, "Ian, 30 million is not a small amount! What do you need that much money for? Are you in trouble? Why didn't you tell me?"

Ian frowned. "What would it look like if I take money from my sister?"

Jodie grabbed Ian's sleeve anxiously. "Why do you need so much money then? You have to tell me before I know how I can help you!"

Ian pursed his lips and looked at Jodie, finally telling her. "The Bennets got into trouble, they need 30 million pounds."

"Ian, how does the Bennets' trouble affect us? Our families have already severed our relationship, we can't help them!"

Perplexity was written all over Jodie's face.

Ian shook his head. "No! If the Bennets are in trouble, Rue is in trouble. If Rue's in trouble, I cannot leave her to the dogs! Jodie, you understand that, right?"

Jodie's hand slid down Ian's sleeve as a bitter smile appeared on her face.

'Rue, it's Rue again...'

"Ian, I understand, but you can't use our company money to help her! If mom and dad found out..."

Before Jodie could even finish, Ian had left the office.

"Don't worry, if you and I don’t tell them, they wouldn't know. Don't worry, I will return the money as soon as I can."

Click— The office door closed slowly.

Jodie leaned back against her seat with her head in her hands, her face turning pale.

'How can you not care about your family and the company for Rue's sake?'

Jodie held her fists tightly and slammed on the desk.

Even though she knew Rue was just using Ian, there was nothing she could do!

With that, Jodie pressed her lips tightly, picked up her phone, and sent Rue a short message.

Quite the contrary, the Bennets would think she was unable to capture Edward's heart. As long as Edward did not care about her, her value to the Bennets would continue to fall.

To maximize her benefits, she only had one choice.

Furthermore, Ian was completely willing to help her, she did not force him.

'Since one was willing to give and the other was willing to take, why not?'

Rue put on a simple makeup and took her BB cream. When she was preparing to dab it on her neck to cover up the love bite, she paused.

Her arms fell to her side as she smiled lightly.

Instead, Rue covered her neck with a scarf, changed into her dress, and put on her shades before she left the hotel and headed for the Bennet villa.

At the Bennet villa, both her parents stood outside to receive Rue.

It was rare even for her to get a reception like that.

Rue narrowed her eyes, took off her scarf and shades, then handed the cheque to her father. "Dad, this cheque is worth 30 million pounds. Whatever difficulties you might have in the future, tell me. I'm your daughter, after all!"

Mr. Bennet took the cheque with a wide grin. He was silently regretting not telling her to get 50 million pounds sterling earlier.

However, Mrs. Bennet saw the love bites on Rue's neck and was a little stunned. "Rue! What are those on your neck! Did you even go home to the Bluemels' yesterday? You and that man..."

When Mr. Bennet heard that, he looked over with furrowed brows. "Rue, explain this."

Rue stomped the ground, pretending to be upset. "Mom, dad, what are you talking about! Of course I went home to the Bluemels'! How else would Edward give me the cheque!"
