Chapter 90
Throughout the years, James had met a lot of people who would try to bring down the price as much as possible. However, it was his first time hearing someone raising the price Instead, let alone doubling it entirely.
“or course,” Daphne said while opening het bag. Then, she took our a card with her slender fingers “We only live once, right? Since I’m an A–lister, there’s no way I’ll be short on money. I’m taking the seventh floor today.
Wendy didn’t know what Daphne was planning. She tugged on Daphne’s sleeve and feminded her with a worried look, “Daphne, you have to calm down. It isn’t worth spending this much on this place.”
Daphne shot Wendy a glance, telling her not to worry. “Don’t worry, I know what I’m doing.
Every time Yvonne interpted the conversation, she would do it at just the right moment. “Wilson, let’s just stop fighting with her. You don’t have to protect me all the time. I can manage without a team…!!
When Wilson beard that, he continued raising the price in his deep voice, “Thirty million dollars.”
Daphne didn’t know if she should praise him for being generous or call him dumb. After all, he was going to spend 30 million dollars just to make Yvonne happy. With that thought in mind, Daphne reached out her hand and said, “Forty million dollars.”
Wilson knew Daphne had limited funds, so he smiled in disdain. “Fifty million dollars if you keep this up, you won’t be able to fork out the money”
Although she was an A–lister, the industry had always focused on having the best of the best. So, she wouldn’t be able to accept too many jobs each year. Not only that, but Leena had always publicly opposed Daphne as Mrs. Farrell and showing up in front of the camera all year round. So, Daphne’s income was way smaller than other top actresses. With that in mind, Wason had a clear idea about her financial capabilities. “Stop while youcan, Daphne. Otherwise, I can’t promise if you can get anything from the divorce.” He wasn’t giving an empty threat at all, and when Daphne heard it, she looked furious. If you’re not going to let me take the money, your mistress can forget about being the next Mrs. Farrell! So, you want the place, huh? Fine! You can have it! You’d better watch out from now on!!
She stopped arguing with Wilson and Wonne. Wilson spent so million dollars to buy the office in the end. Since it was only worth ten million, he didn’t really win the fight Wendy was still feeling scared after returning to the car.
“When you said you were going to spend to million dollars just now, I was shocked. How could you possibly have that much money? You haven’t been working much in the past year, and Mr. Farrell’s mom only allowed you to take one project each year. If I have to guess, I think you’re almost running out of funds.”
After that, she noticed how Daphne was smiling cunningly in the rearview mirror. “I knew that Wilson could buy the office easily. Since we couldn’t win against him, I figured we might as well let him waste as much money as possible. Besides, I managed to make a fortune as well_”
“What do you mean? Wendy was confused
Soon after that, Liliana’s voice message came. “Oh, Daphne, you really are cruel for extorting your ex–husband like that. I’ve already transferred you go million dollars. If something as good as this comes up again, remember to let me know.”
“Why did you transfer me 30 million dollars? Didn’t we agree that I’d take just 20 million dollars?” asked Daphne
“It’s your ex–husband’s money, after all. Besides, you’re the one who got the money, and I’ve already made ten million more than expected. So, I can’t let you draw the short end of the suck. Just take the money”
“Well…Alright. Just let me know if you need any help in the future.”
Suddenly, Wendy slammed on the brakes and asked, “Daphine, did you purposely raise the price earlier just so you could split the money with Ms. Tucker?
“Why else would I do that? Since I can’t win against Wilson, I can’t possibly let myself lose in vain, right?” Daphne leaned back in the seat in satisfaction and closed her eyes.” Let’s go. Since we have the money now, we can find ourselves a better office”
dy couldn’t find a
To her, finding an office was Eke finding a suitable life partner. There was no way she would go with one that was flawed. However, Daphne, Ava, and Wendy suitable place after searching together

When Daphine thought about the omillion dollars she had just received, she agreed to it happily.
