Chapter 257
"Luna, have you changed the password of the credit card?" Trissy returned home from the luxury store. As soon as she entered, she angrily walked to Luna and questioned her. Luna sat on the sofa, looking calm. She just raised her eyebrows slightly and glanced at Trissy. She nodded and said faintly, "Yep. What's the matter?"
"What's the matter? How dare you ask me that?" Trissy froze first and then said angrily, "Do you know how embarrassing it was when I couldn't swipe the card to pay the bill? Why didn't you tell me that you had changed the password?"
"How much money do you think we have now? If you spend it all, what are we gonna do when we have no money at all?" Luna gently stroked her long hair and said.
Ever since Justin drove them out of the hospital, their life had become more and more difficult. What happened at the wedding had left Lucas in a great deal of trouble. Luna once went to the Thomas Group to see Lucas, yet Vincent asked her to leave before she could even enter the building. Lucas did what he said. Ever since they met at Luna's place last time, Lucas never offered the Cheek sisters any financial support again. But Luna and Trissy were already used to living a luxurious life. They splurged for two months before Luna finally realized that they couldn't afford to live such a life anymore.
"What do you think we should do, Luna? Do we really have no chance to talk to Lucas again? What about Rebecca? Why don't we go and see her?" Trissy asked as she sat beside Jessica. Trissy knew about their financial difficulty. But she didn't want to give up. "Do you think Rebecca can speak up for you and give you a place at their house again? Stop dreaming. You were the one who told me what status Rebecca had in the Thomas family. Do you think she is able to take care of you?" Luna curled her lips in disdain. Trissy knew that it wouldn't work, but she wasn't that smart to figure out another way.
She was down-hearted now.
Just as the two of them were at a loss, Luna's phone suddenly rang. She glanced at the screen. The number was not her contact. Luna originally wanted to hang up, but after hesitating for a moment, she still picked up the call. "Hello, Miss Cheek." A low and deep voice came from the other side of the line. His voice was cold, not really pleasant to the ears. "May I ask who is speaking?" Luna frowned. "I'm from the Thomas family. I think there's a deal you may be interested in, Miss Cheek." The other party chuckled.
At 3 pm, in a café not far from the Thomas Group in downtown LA, Luna and Trissy sat in a booth nervously. Trissy couldn't control herself. She kept glancing around. A tall man walked in. Trissy felt his gaze and immediately looked away. A moment later, the man walked to their booth and sat down. "Good afternoon, Miss Luna Cheek and Miss Trissy Cheek." From the moment the man appeared, Luna had been silently sizing him up. "You are not from the Thomas family! I have never seen you in Thomas' house!" Trissy looked at the man in a daze.
"Let me introduce myself. My name is Oscar, and my father is Louis Thomas." Oscar smiled and introduced himself. "You are that illegitimate child?" Trissy blurted out subconsciously, then she immediately realized that her words were inappropriate. She awkwardly picked up her cup and took a sip of coffee. "Oscar, what do you want from us?" Luna gave Trissy a warning look, then turned to look at Oscar and asked. "I'm here to get you two out of trouble, of course," Oscar said with a smile.
"What trouble can we have? You must be joking." Luna did not know what Oscar held, so she had to be alert. Oscar leaned forward and said in a low voice, "We don't have to beat around the bush. You keep pestering Lucas because you want to join Thomas' family, right? We share the same goal. I also need to be a Thomas officially. If we cooperate, I believe we can achieve our goals very quickly." "My sister was Max's wife. We are part of the Thomas family already. Thank you for your kind offer, but we don't need it." Luna found Oscar dangerous, so she refused him. "Don't joke around. Max is already dead. Justin will never acknowledge your sister. Moreover, the place where the two of you live now doesn't seem like a place where people from the upper-class circle will live."Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
