Chapter 127
Not long after, the general manager arrived.
In his fifties, he was an intimidating man. He glared at Jennifer and questioned, “Miss, can you please tell me how you got this card?”
“It was my ex-husband's,” Jennifer answered.
The general manager observed Jennifer. She was indeed exquisite. However, based on how she dressed and acted, she didn’t seem like a wealthy person. She had to go through eight cards to cash out a little over two hundred thousand. He had seen many people like her, all of whom were average citizens.
Therefore, he had reason to believe that Jennifer stole the card.
“Who is your ex-husband?”
“Donald Campbell,” Jennifer replied. This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
The general manager gave it some thought.
Since there were only fifty black cards available, he could remember every owner's name. However, he couldn't recall a Campbell.
“I have reason to believe you stole this card,” the general manager concluded. “This card has a limit of one hundred billion. Do you understand?”
Jennifer was utterly shocked.
Isn't this Donald's card? Why is there so much money¹? Besides Charles and Lana, who else would have a hundred billion?
“No! You guys must be mistaken!” Jennifer tried to explain herself.
However, the general manager was not listening anymore. As he was about to leave, he said, “Report to the police. Keep an eye on her. Contact the central bank and look for the owner.”
Jennifer was losing it. “I have to go!”
She tried to leave in a hurry, but the branch manager forcefully held her back and pushed her to the ground. “You are quite beautiful. Why must you become a thief?”
He looked at her condescendingly with a mocking expression on his face.
“But I have to thank you for getting me a merit.” The branch manager laughed. Once the owner of the black card finds out how I've helped to locate his card, I'll surely be rewarded. I'll get a promotion and a pay raise!
Jennifer stood up and said nothing. She got out her phone and quickly made a call.
“Donald, I'm facing some issues at the bank on Pollerton Road.”
She also explained briefly what had happened.
After hearing from Jennifer, Donald hung up and head toward Pollerton Road in silence.
Nobody knew what was on his mind.
The only reason he left her the card was so that she could use it in times of need. He never expected Jennifer to be humiliated. Furthermore, at this rate, his identity could be exposed!
The Parasite had not shown himself yet, so Donald still had to lie low and keep his
identity a secret!
If his identity was revealed too early, it would not help Jennifer at all.
Back in the meeting room, Jennifer's wrist was swollen. The branch manager chuckled some more as he teased her, “Miss, you really are quite beautiful. How about getting into a relationship with me? I will give you eight thousand as your monthly allowance.”
He wanted her to be his mistress.
Jennifer stared at him furiously. “Disgusting!”
The branch manager got more excited. “You only have a little over two hundred thousand after cashing out eight cards. It goes to show that you're not very well off. Getting eight thousand to spend monthly is not a small amount. I can even recommend you to work here at our branch.”
Jennifer did not want to waste her breath on this man. She waited for Donald patiently, hoping to get answers when she saw him later.
The manager refused to give up. He walked up to Jennifer and proceeded to sniff her. “You smell very nice. Which shampoo brand do you use? Tell me.”
His right hand sneakily moved to her behind and copped a feel.
Jennifer immediately smacked his right hand away.
The manager's face turned cold. He raised his hands and slapped Jennifer's face, causing her to stagger. He mocked her, “You b*tch! Let me tell you, you're in deep trouble. The owner of this card is of a high position, and you've stolen his card. You're doomed! Your whole family is doomed! Submit to me, and I will find a way to plead on your behalf. Otherwise, you're done for!”
