Chapter 187 At Least Ten Billion

Oliver pouted in disagreement. “We can’t stay here forever. There are still a lot of things to be done!”

I want to earn lots and lots of money…

Jasper commented with a grin on his face, “We shall hide for some time and get out when Benjamin stops the search!”

Oliver flicked Jasper on the forehead and retorted, “Are you nuts? Benjamin already knows of your existence. There’s no way he’s going to give up now!”

Jasper ran out of words. Instead of arguing, he rubbed his head and approached Arissa. “Mommy! Did you see that? He hit me!”

Arissa chuckled. “You should fight back!”

Upon hearing that, Jasper backed down. Now that Oliver is in charge of the finances, that’s not a good idea. What can I do? Hmph! I will just let it go!

While wearing a pout, Jesse added, “I shouldn’t have wanted to turn on the television. What a party pooper!”

Everyone was amused by her reaction.

Gavin chimed in, “Indeed! Party pooper!” He never expected Benjamin to take such measures.

What a bad guy! How could he? Mommy will be accused as a human trafficker!

Bradley quipped, “Boss, do you think Benjamin will give me ten million if I turn all of you in?”

As soon as the words left his lips, the kids glared daggers at him. “Mr. Hinton, that isn’t the right thing to do! We had a hard time escaping!”

Zachary narrowed his eyes and gave the older man a sharp stare. “Are you willing to sell us out for only ten million?”

At that moment, he looked like Benjamin.

Bradley was amused. “I was joking!”

Jasper commented, “Mr. Hinton, I’m absolutely sure that you won’t get the money if you turn us in. Moreover, you’ll be blacklisted by Daddy!”

Oliver adjusted his spectacles and nodded. “That’s right. He might even give you a beating!”

Bradley was shocked. “Seriously?”

A gentle smile appeared across Arissa’s face as she watched the banter unfold. She then added, “Don’t you think turning us in for ten million is a loss? At this point, I’m pretty sure Benjamin knows about Oliver and Jesse as well. There’s no way five children are only worth ten million.”

Bradley’s eyes instantly lit up. “It should be at least fifty million!”

Arissa’s grin widened as she remarked, “No. At the very least, five hundred million.” NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

If Benjamin had offered five hundred million, she might even consider turning in the kids herself.

The kids rolled their eyes.

Are the adults currently discussing our value?

Oliver was the first to object. “Mommy, do you think we’re only worth five hundred million? How disappointing!”

We’ll definitely be able to earn way more than that sum in the future.

“That’s right, Mommy. Your expectation for us is too low! Do you really think five hundred million is a lot of money?”

Zachary’s expression turned sullen. In fact, we have more money saved up, but Mommy doesn’t know about that. Maybe that’s why she assumed five hundred million is a huge amount.

“Mommy, I have five hundred million in my bank account. You should request for ten billion instead!”

Gavin’s words caught everyone off guard, and the others turned to look at him in astonishment.

Bradley was dumbfounded. “Did you just say you have five h-hundred million?”

Gavin nodded indifferently.

Noticing Arissa’s shocked expression, he explained, “That’s the money that I have saved up so far!”

Even if Daddy wanted to, he can’t do anything to the money.

Arissa was amazed. “Sweetheart, it looks like I’ll be depending on you from now on. You’re amazing!” With that amount of money, I won’t have to worry about a single day of my life after taking revenge.

Gavin beamed and nodded. “Sure. You can count on me, Mommy!” he replied in a serious tone.

As for the four other kids, they were overwhelmed, staring at one another.

Apparently, they were stunned by the news.

Although Jesse might not know how great the sum was, Zachary, Oliver, and Jasper understood its value.

They were well aware that they would have to work hard for a long, long time to be able to have that much money.
