Instant Millionaire novel Chapter 38

After getting rid of the others, Quincy and Jane walked to the side of Redby Lake. At this time, it was almost dark, and the lake looked so quiet and beautiful, under a few evening clouds in the sky.

Jane squeezed the corner of her clothes and walked along the lake, looking absent-minded.

"What's wrong?" Quincy was a little worried.

"I never thought that you are from such a rich family." Jane looked at the lake, instead of looking at Quincy. She said with a bitter smile.

"Do you hate me for lying to you before? Jane, you got to believe me. The reason why I didn't tell you was that I felt that it was not the right time yet. I never thought that I would keep hiding it from you..." Quincy explained to Jane anxiously.

What Quincy said made Jane feel touched, but at the same time, she felt more and more anxious and confused with herself.

"I know, but..." Jane sped up. She walked to a big rock next to the lake and sat down. She picked up a few stones and threw them aimlessly into the lake.

"But what? Do you doubt my loyalty to you? I can prove it to you now." Quincy was very anxious when he couldn't figure out what Jane was thinking.

"No..." Jane became less and less confident under Quincy's questioning. She turned to Quincy and stared at his eyes, "You are from a super-rich family, and I am just a poor village girl. I don’t deserve you. When I think of what happened before, I feel I was ridiculous. I even bought rotten fruit for you to eat. You can give away 1 million without hesitation. So of course, you wouldn’t have cared about the little money of buying cheap fruits..."

After saying so, Jane felt that her beautiful 10 days had come to an abrupt end, like waking up from a dream. She stood up and was about to leave. She decided in her heart that she would never have any connection with Quincy anymore.

Of course, Quincy wouldn’t let her leave like this. He quickly grabbed her hand. But because Jane walked so quickly, Quincy grabbed her with great force.

Jane fell in his arms under the big force from him. Quincy took the opportunity and embraced her tightly. Jane tried to free herself a few times, but Quincy didn’t let her go.

"Let me go. We are not matched at all..." Jane said in Quincy's arms. She had mixed feeling at this moment. If Quincy was just an ordinary student, she would want to spend her life with him no matter what.

Quincy did not speak. He just looked at her quietly with a gentle smile.

"What are you laughing at?" Jane finally raised her head and looked at Quincy. When she saw his smile, she got puzzled and even angry.

Now she was talking about an important thing, how come that he was not taking it seriously at all?

"I was wondering what you were worried about. Now I know you were worried that you don’t deserve me. Don’t worry. I will go to my family tomorrow and tell them that I will not inherit the family property in the future, nor do I need financial assistance from them. In this way, you don’t have to worry anymore. Right?"

"Are you stupid?" Jane couldn't help cursing when she heard Quincy's absurd thoughts.

"I'm not stupid. Comparing to the family's wealth, I want more to pursue what I care about" Quincy said seriously, "Do you still want to leave me?"

At this moment, Jane was moved by what he said. She felt sweet and warm in her heart.

"When did I say I will leave you?" Jane lowered her head slightly, and said in a low voice shyly, which made Quincy feel so sweet like he just ate cotton candy.

Quincy's face slowly approached Jane’s. Jane also realized what he wanted to do. Her heart started beating so fast. She felt so nervous and didn’t know how to react.

Just when Quincy got so close that he could even feel her breath, Jane stopped him with one finger on his lips, "You must first promise me not to give up the right to inherit."

If Quincy made such a ridiculous decision because of her, Jane would be very self-blamed in her heart.

"Okay, I promise you!" Quincy was particularly excited at this point. After speaking, he continued to press his lips on hers.

Jane's lips were so thin, so soft, and so sweet. Quincy felt that he was in heaven. He wished that he could stay at this moment forever, and he could hold her in his arms forever.

After a long time, Quincy reluctantly released Jane.

Quincy then took Jane to the cafeteria for dinner. Just after walking for a few steps, Jane noticed that there was something reflective in the bush. They walked over to have a look. It turned out to be a mobile phone. The phone’s SIM card was gone. All the messages on the phone were also deleted. But the phone was quite good.

"I don't know if this phone was lost or thrown by its owner." Jane held the phone in her hand, feeling a little confused.

"I think it must be thrown by someone. Didn't you see that the SIM card and the data on the phone were deleted? Jane, how about you take it yourself?" Quincy wanted to buy Jane a new phone for a long time, but he knew that Jane wouldn’t accept it. This mobile phone was at least better than Jane's old one. That was why Quincy wanted Jane to use it.

"No, what if someone else lost it?" Jane smiled and glared at him, "I will keep it with me for a while. Anyway, I come to Redby Lake all the time. Maybe I can find its owner. If no one wants it after a long time, I will use it myself then."

"Good idea." Then they wanted to continue walking to the cafeteria.

At the same time, Quincy received a message from the class group, which was sent by teacher Dante, "@All, everyone goes to the Classroom 1302 in Area A for a meeting right now. No one is allowed to take leave. Anyone who is not showing up will be deducted!

Coincidentally, Jane also received the same message.

It seemed that something happened among the whole major.

Quincy and Jane had no choice but to separate and walk to their own classroom.

When Quincy arrived in the classroom, the rest of the students had already arrived. Quincy walked over and sat down next to Milo and Rocco.

"Hey, Quincy, look at Yair and Vicky. They usually act like jerks, but I don’t know what happened today. They look so timid today. When they saw me just now, they looked so scared and nervous instead of mocking me as before. What is wrong with them today?" Milo said amusedly.

Quincy glanced at Yair and Vicky for a second. When they met Quincy’s glance, they looked scared and looked away immediately, as if a mouse had seen a cat!

Quincy smiled lightly. It seemed that he gave them a deep impression this afternoon at the Art Building.

At this time, teacher Dante walked in. Dante was bold and now he looked even sadder with a miserable impression. Everyone stopped talking and they all were curious about what happened to make teacher Dante so depressed.

"Everyone, some unexpected situations happened today..." Dante cleared his throat, and said solemnly to the students, "Floriculture Teacher and stuff from finance department, Ms. Kadence is responsible for the 2 million funds, which is for the school building a new practice base. Someone stole the account and password today. All the money was taken away. If the money cannot be taken back, Ms. Kadence would be fully responsible for this. If she can’t pay back the money, she will be in prison..."

"When Ms. Kadence found out she lost the money, she fainted. She is still receiving treatment at the People's Hospital..."

"If you have any clues, report to me immediately..." Dante said from the podium.

Hearing what Dante said, the whole classroom fell into chaos. They didn't expect such a thing would happen to Ms. Kadence. When they heard that Ms. Kadence had lost 2 million, each of them opened their mouths wide and felt scared for her.

2 million! If no one could find the money, did it mean that Ms. Kadence would spend her whole life in prison?

Quincy was also shocked by big time. The first thing he thought of was how to help Ms. Kadence. When he thought of that Ms. Kadence must feel so scared and worried now, he felt particularly tortured in his heart.

"Mr. Kadence, how about we do crowdfunding!" Quincy said directly out of worry.

"Crowdfunding? Do you think it's a good idea? Then what reason do we put on the application for crowdfunding?" Dante always had no good impression of Quincy, “How about we write that we need to do crowdfunding because a teacher lost 2 million from her own mistake? How about that? Everyone on the internet will give us a big lesson. Quincy, even if you are shameless, Ms. Kadence and the school are not shameless to do such thing. Quincy, Ms. Kadence is always so nice to you. Why would you do this to her? Thank god she is not here now. If she is here, she would be in the hospital again hearing you saying so!"

"Stupid…"

"How come he is so stupid like this?"

"Is he trying to frame Ms. Kadence? Ms. Kadence is always so kind to him, she must never expect him saying so!"

Quincy really wanted to help Ms. Kadence. He thought that if they did crowdfunding online, he could donate 2 million to Ms. Kadence anonymously.

After hearing what Dante and other classmates said, Quincy calmed himself down and realized that it was not a realistic idea.

"Well, everyone, remember: as soon as you have a clue, report to me immediately. Now the meeting is over!" After saying that, Dante walked out of the classroom with a bitter expression.

Quincy walked out of the classroom and found Jane. They wandered down the campus road.

"Last semester, it was Ms. Kadence who helped me get the poverty scholarship. She always took care of me. How could this happen to her?" Jane frowned slightly. She was so worried for Ms. Kadence.

Ms. Kadence also helped Jane. Seeing Jane’s sad face, Quincy was even more determined to help Ms. Kadence.

"Quincy, why don't we go and check on Ms. Kadence together? She must be very helpless at the hospital now..." Jane looked at Quincy.

"Well, Jane, you can go first. I still have some things to do. Say hello to Ms. Kadence for me and tell her: Don't worry, everything will get better soon!"

Jane was a little bit disappointed knowing Quincy wouldn’t go with her to the hospital. But she trusted Quincy very much. She knew he must have something important to do. Jane nodded and went to the People's Hospital alone.

Quincy had already made up his mind.

He was going to write on a note: "Ms. Kadence, I’m sorry. I’m the bad guy who took the money from your card. Now I realize my mistake. Please post your bank card number on Weibo, I will transfer 2 million back to you!"

In this way, when Ms. Kadence returned to the office from the hospital, she would see this note. Quincy would then transfer 2 million to her account, and everything would be resolved!

Quincy made up his mind and walked to Ms. Kadence's office.

At the same time, the door of teacher Dante's office was also opened, and a girl walked in with a strange smile on her face.

"Vicky, it's so late now. Are you coming to my office for..." Dante looked at Vicky’s pretty body wondering that was she here for having sex with him to let him gave her a high score for the middle-semester test?

However, he was wrong. Vicky closed the door and said excitedly, "Teacher, I know who took 2 million from Ms. Kadence."
