Chapter 237 Sometimes Accepting Money May Not Be Fun



When everything was done, Javier who felt very refreshed brought Jade and Ciara with him as they gathered with the others in the living room.


After breakfast, the group went to visit Zephiel.


After all, Zephiel was the oldest person on the island, so it was certain that they should do so.


However, what they did not expect was that Zephiel would bring an envelope with him.


“This is a little something for each of you. May you all live a lucky and prosperous life.”


Zephiel smiled as he spoke to everyone. Meanwhile, his butler handed out envelopes.


Luca takes Zephiel's "little thing" literally when he feels the envelope is very thin.


He then rubbed the envelope and knew that it was just a piece of paper. In addition, he was very sure it was not a check because the check had a certain dimension. The envelope is so small that a check must be folded once to fit inside.


Fortunately, Luca doesn't seem to be bothered about this and thinks that he should count his lucky stars that he can meet the oldest man from the Kersey Family. Therefore, he did not mind whether he received the envelope or not.


Fortunately, that day many foreigners and famous people visited Zephiel, so the crowd did not stay for long. They all left a while later.


However, when they leave, Luca happens to nudge Lloyd as they walk side by side.


Lloyd then turned around involuntarily and whispered to Luca, “See there. Don't you think that blonde guy looks familiar?”


Following Lloyd's gaze, Luca turned his head and cursed softly. 'D* mn, what do you mean he looks familiar ?! He's usually on the news! That's president Tolk! I didn't expect to see him come here to visit that old man!'


Luca is in such disbelief when he sees a man so powerful that he can attack or sanction anyone he wants.


While Luca was still in a daze, the blond president turned around and looked into his eyes.


The president then smiled and bowed slightly before saying, “Halo.”


Luca was so embarrassed that he didn't know what to do. Therefore, he decided to imitate the movements and tone of the president.” Hello."


The president then left with a smile and returned to visit the old fox.


After leaving the house, Luca told Lloyd, “Hei, do you think I should send you some money? The president really just greeted me!"


Lloyd took it very seriously. "Sure! How about this? Go ahead and post on your social media when we get back, and I'm sure many people will like your post.


Luca is very happy. "What a great idea! But. I think I should just let it go. After all, I'm not shy enough to post something like this. I have to leave that to Javier.


As the two of them were chatting, Chad who was next to them suddenly shouted, “Greetings old man!”


Everyone took their eyes off and noticed that Chad was holding a piece of paper with a QR code printed on it. Also, Chad held his phone in his right hand while shouting in shock.


It was only then that Luca realized that the envelope contained a QR code.


He quickly opened his own envelope and scanned the code.


A moment later, he shouted in surprise, "Damn it!"


Everyone looks at their own cell phone, which shows the exact same amount: 3 million dollars!


Filled with disbelief, none of them could believe their eyes. They do not believe that they have just received 3 million dollars as goodwill throughout the year.


'If someone could buy one Ferrari for about 450,000 dollars, the old man really just gave us seven Ferraris! 1 Luca was shocked as he counted the number of people at the scene. “There was Chad and two of his family members, Lloyd and his girlfriend, Edelgard and me, Sam, Herschel, and two others. There are 11 in total


people at all, which meant the old man had just given away 33 million dollars!


Luca did not dare to imagine. In addition, the money he had scanned was directly sent to his bank account.


Luca gulped in fear as he told Javier, “J-Javier! I'll give it back to you!”


Chad said the same thing. After all, he had more family members, so he had just received 9 million dollars out of nowhere and felt guilty about it


Although Sam had received 3 million dollars, he was also very frightened. He could accept it if it was 30,000 dollars, but 3 million dollars was too much for him to accept easily. Although Sam's fortune was over 30,000 dollars, he had never seen someone who could spend money so easily.


'3 million dollars per envelope. Is the old man trying to drown us all in money?'


Javier just smiled and waved his hand. “It's a gift from the parents, so just take it. Why did you all want to return it to me when Jade, Ciara, and I received an envelope as well?


As she spoke, Ciara lifted her own envelope, filled with excitement.


Jade, on the other hand, was a more conservative person, so she kept hers in her bag and did not dare to scan it.


Judging from how happy Ciara was, Jade knew that the three of them must have received different amounts. He could not bear to overcome his shock if he scanned and learned that he had received a large sum of money.


So, under Javier's instructions, everyone received the money that had just been given to them


At the time, everyone was convinced that the Kersey family was really rich, but none of them dared to try to guess how much they had overall.


As they were walking, Mary Jane suddenly appeared out of nowhere and approached them.


Everyone started greeting her, while she smiled and gave each of them an envelope as well.


"I'm not as rich as an old fox, so this is just a little bit of me."


Everyone holds their envelopes, knowing that Mary Jane also gave them a QR code with 300,000 dollars in each red packet.


'Wow! He gave us a total of 3.3 million dollars!'


When it all ended, Mary Jane told the group, “The old fox has never been so easy to accept. The more you get, the more effort you need to put into it. Right, I have to go now to visit my biggest boss!”


After saying that, Mary Jane left with a smile.


It was then that the troupe realized that the old lady who seemed to be always watching television was not as simple as it seemed


Even though he didn't say much, his intent was very clear…


Depending on the money they receive, they must make equal efforts while working for Javier. If they fail to do so, they will be in hell…


However, none of the people present dared to slack off, as they were already very surprised by the amount of money they received.


In the past, they always felt happy every time they received money. But now, they were all shocked and scared.


This is the first time anyone has experienced how money received is not necessarily a good thing.


After having fun on the island for longer, Javier heads to the cliffs of the island and finds a large cruise ship. Then, he transported the entire group from the island.


Back then, they all had money and were still overseas, so how could they not go shopping?


Everyone seemed very happy as they gathered around the deck, while Jade and Ciara hid inside the cabin and scanned their QR codes.


Ciara scanned hers first. He was filled with anticipation at first, but it quickly turned sour. 'Why did Grandpa do this to me ?!


Jade looked at Ciara's phone screen and saw that she only received 10 dollars! Therefore, Jade was getting curious to check out hers. He wondered how much he would receive from his QR code.
