Chapter 902 A Pro Actor
Minerva and Helen cried in each other's arms, regretting everything they did. It took them a long tto calm
down, and finally, Helen sighed. "Now, what should we do? It's ten million, not ten dollars. How am supposed to
tell James about this?"
Minerva had an idea. "Aunt Helen, Liam is managing a construction company, so he must have a lot of money.
He probably won't ask you to return the ten million soon. Why don't you ask him to give it to you so you can tide
things over. As for me... Tate and | will start working and pay you back once we make enough money."

If anyone else was there, they'd know Minerva was just lying. After all, it'd take the both of them a few lifetimes
to make ten million.
Minerva sighed. "This is our fault, so of course we'll have to pay you back. I'm sorry, Aunt Helen. | really want to
kill myself, but | can't do it. Not when | know you'll have to shoulder this debt alone. Don't worry, Aunt Helen.
Tate and | will save up and pay you back no matter what."
Touched, Helen patted Minerva's hand. "Don't blyourself, Minerva. I... I'll try to cup with something.
Worst-case scenario, James will givean earful, but we're already married for a long time. He... probably won't
chaseaway. Don't put too much pressure on yourself. Look livelier, okay?"
Helen calmed the siblings down and left, looking worried.
The moment she left, Minerva and Tate started smiling. "Told you. Just act innocent, cry a bit, say you'll jump off
a building, and she'll start to pity you. And now she doesn't even want us to give her the money back anymore."
Tate laughed.
Minerva had a smug look on her face. "I did well, right? Cried a lot thanks to the eye drops | put in beforehand.
Couldn't have fooled her otherwise."
Tate gave her a thumbs up. "You rock, Minnie!"
Minerva let out a chuckle, but then she sighed. "Goddammit. | didn't see that one coming. Never thought Peter's
a scammer. And he scammedout of seven million! Why did | even fall for him in the first place?"
Tate spat. "Foreigner my foot. He's worse than your regular Cathay guy. You shouldn't put your trust in them from

Minerva waved him down. "No, Tate. You can't make a hasty generalization about them. Peter's one person.
Foreigners are still better in general. Besides, it's all Cathay's fault he turned out this way. He used to be a good
guy. It's the people here who led him astray."
Tate pouted. He didn't think his sister's reasoning was logical. "Enough talk about him, Minnie. He's already
gone."
Minerva gritted her teeth. "But he scammedout of seven million!"
"So? It's not your money. It's the Cunninghams'. Why are you so angry about it? Besides, we still have three
million left."
