"Alright, stop wasting time with her. It makes things easier for us since Melody said it's enough." BD tilted his head toward Melody. "Melody, have you figured out which card you want to use to pay us?" The moment had finally arrived, and Melody, pretending to be calm, had the blonde hand over her phone.

"I haven't used up my pay, but I forgot which card has money in it. I need to check first..."

The blonde, upon hearing this, could not help but marvel in admiration. 'So this is what the life of a wealthy person is like! They have so much money that they couldn't even keep track of which of their cards have how much money inside!'

"Don't worry, we still have time to swipe through them one by one. As long as we swipe enough to cover the remaining two million dollars, I guarantee you can walk out of this abandoned building unscathed today," BD said with a smile, but a hint of darkness lingered in his eyes. "However, we'll have to find another way if you can't come up with the two million dollars."

This was clearly a test for Melody. She forced herself to remain calm and said with a faint smile, "You don't have to worry about that. I was the one who suggested hiring you, and I wouldn't have done that if I didn't have the money."

BD and Melody locked eyes, but neither of them looked away.

Melody knew that if she looked away first, it would mean conceding to the fact that she had no money. She had to keep up the pretense. This was a life and death moment for her, after all.

BD was the first to look away. "Very well, as long as you have the money. Hey, blondie!" S~ᴇaʀᴄh the Findɴovel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

The blonde approached with a phone in hand, opened Melody's payment app, and asked her to choose a card.

"The one at the bottom is my boyfriend's. Let's try that one. It's the supplementary card for the Centurion Card, you know," said Melody with a sly smile.

In Wendy's eyes, it looked like she was showing off.

'Why does she get to live the life of the rich and famous after moving out of the house? D*mn it! She even got a boyfriend! No, wait. Not boyfriend. More like sugar daddy! Didn't she threaten to kill herself rather than agree to an arranged marriage before?' thought Wendy.

Wendy was furious that Melody was living a better life than her. Between the two of them, it had always been Wendy who looked down on Melody.

"Hmph! You can drop the act, Melody. No man would be willing to spend so much money on a woman like you! You're stiff and uncharming, like a block of wood. Pah! Only men who are blind will be interested in you!"

Melody smiled. "What can I say? My boyfriend's eyesight is perfect, so you don't have to worry about that. Time will prove whether he's willing to spend money on me or not!"

Her words were infuriating, and the impact on Wendy was magnified tenfold. Wendy was so enraged that her chest heaved. She would have rushed up and ripped Melody's mouth apart if she was not tied up. Ignoring the ongoing dispute between the two women, the blonde asked Melody, "What's the password?"

"12398," Melody casually replied.

"Your balance is insufficient. Please use another card."

The blonde instinctively glanced at BD, who signaled him to continue.

"Sorry, it might be because I splurged on a bag while traveling abroad last month, and I haven't topped it up this month." Melody had to make up a story on the spot.

She acted as if she did not particularly care, as if she was confident that she would eventually find a card that had three million dollars in it. She showed no signs of nervousness at all.
