Chapter 478
Franklin lowered his head and saw the card in Lucille's hand. It was the same blue card that she said
she would return to him.
"I thought you weren't playing tricks?" Franklin narrowed his eyes and smiled scornfully. "Since the
betrothal gift is given to you, then it's yours. There is not much left in it, anyway. We have made a
premarital agreement, and you won't get a penny from me after the divorce."
"What are you talking about? What divorce?" Alma panicked.
"Lucille, are you going to divorce Franklin?" Natasha was anxious too.
When Alma and Natasha heard the news, they were so angry that they almost stomped their feet.
Lucille was not bothered to pay attention to the two of them. She looked at Franklin and answered, "I
am only using a little of the money. When my father recovers, I will definitely return this to you."
After she said that, she quickly bowed her head and walked towards the hospital.
Alma followed her quickly. "Little b*tch. What the hell are you doing? What divorce?"
Lucille ignored her and went to pay for the operation fee immediately.
As for Natasha, she stood where she was.
Franklin had always looked gentle. At this moment, even if he was angry, he did not show it on his face.
His eyes were still clear and dark.
Natasha looked at him and asked in a delicate voice, "Franklin, why do you want to divorce Lucille?
Although she is not good at words, she is a kind person. More importantly, we all like you."
"Like me?"
Franklin lowered his head to look at Natasha with his handsome gaze. Her face suddenly turned red.
"Yes." This was the first time that Natasha had a good look at him. The man's face was so good-looking
that he was more handsome than the school hunks in her university.
"That means that you like me as well." Franklin suddenly turned sideways, and his slender fingers
hooked Natasha's small chin. "Right?" 'I... "
'What's the answer?" He asked intently.
"Of course. I like you too, Franklin."
Natasha did not expect that he would hook up with her so soon, and her heart was beating fast.
That was what she meant. Using Lucille's identity to borrow money to buy a car might not necessarily
be successful, but if Franklin was interested in her, it would not be difficult to buy any luxury car or bag.
Franklin heard her answer and laughed. He calmly retracted his finger and asked, "Which ward is your
father in? I'll go and take a look at him."
"Over there."
Natasha did not understand what Franklin meant, and she did not dare to ask further. Therefore, she
could only obediently lead the way for him.
When they arrived at the ward, Lucille was already there.
As soon as Lucille went in, Marvin's first question was, "How about the workers' surgery fee?"
"I have already paid for it," Lucille explained.
"You paid for it?" Marvin glanced at Alma next to him when he heard Lucille's answer, and his
expression was a little complicated. He pulled her aside and said, "Don't worry. When I get better, I will
return the money to you. I did not have a choice when I borrowed money using your name."
"Okay, don't worry. Your health is more important than anything else."
Lucille was somewhat relieved when she heard her father's words.
When Natasha went in and saw that Marvin was awake, she immediately rushed over and cried, "Dad,
are you okay? I was so worried about you."
When she spoke, the tears that had welled up in her eyes fell as soon as she finished speaking.
"I'm fine, I'm fine." When Marvin saw her tears, he quickly patted her on the shoulder and comforted
her, "Don't cry. I'm fine now. It's just a small wound on my arm. I will be fine after resting for a few
days."
"I'm still worried. Why don't I accompany you to the construction site in the future? I can protect you this
way."
Natasha said as she wiped her tears, and her makeup was ruined.
"I promise you that nothing will happen to me in the future."
Marvin loved Natasha. Although she was not his biological daughter, he treated Natasha no worse than
Lucille.
"Lucille, thank you for paying for Dad." When Natasha noticed that Lucille had stood up and stepped
back, she quickly pulled her. "I'm sorry, I don't have money to help Dad to pay. When I earn money, I NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.
will not bother you. I know that the money was your dowry. We should not take it."
"Natasha, you are really sensible." When Alma heard Natasha's words, she almost grinned to her ears.
"It's okay. It's okay." Lucille knew that Natasha was pretending, but she did not know how to expose
her.
When she was a child, she had told Marvin about it, but he thought that she was lying and told this
matter to Alma.
Because of this, Lucille was beaten by Alma.
She walked over to Franklin, looked at her watch and mumbled, "Let's go now. We should be able to
arrive at the Civil Affairs Bureau before they get off work in the afternoon."
"No need." After Franklin said this, he took a step into the ward and claimed, "Since Marvin and Alma
are here, I will say a few words."
Everyone in the ward looked at him after he said those words.
In particular, Natasha thought that what Franklin was about to say had something to do with her.
Hence, she quickly asked, "Franklin, what do you want to say?"
"Marvin, after I got the marriage certificate with Lucille, you borrowed eight million dollars from a small
loan company in her name. I know about this."
"Well, I had financial problems for a while, and there was no other way." When Marvin heard what
Franklin said, he felt a little embarrassed.
"It's okay. As long as you admit to it, I will not hold you accountable, but!"
"If such a problem happens again, whoever in your family borrows money under Lucille's name, not
only will I force them to return the money, but I will also put them in jail."
When Franklin talked about this matter, he looked at Alma and Natasha with a smile in his beautiful
eyes. It did not seem that he had said any harsh words at all.
However, Alma was so scared that she stood rooted to the ground and did not dare to make a sound.
When he finished speaking, he turned around and pulled Lucille away.
"What, what did you mean by this?" When Lucille heard that Franklin had said her name, she was a
little excited.
She seemed to understand the meaning of Franklin's words, but she was also afraid of
misunderstanding him.
"Me?" Franklin raised the corner of his mouth. "We can't divorce now, or there will not be a show to
watch."
"What show?" Lucille asked.
"Nothing, go home and cook for me. I think the food you cook tastes good." Franklin shook his head
and held her hand as they went out.
Before Franklin reached the entrance of the hospital, he heard Natasha's words. Just now, he also saw
her acting like a good daughter, with tears in her eyes.
He suddenly felt that the Jules family, especially Natasha, was fascinating.
After Marvin was discharged from the hospital, the first thing he did was invite Franklin and Lucille to
have dinner at home.
Although Lucille was very reluctant, they were a family, after all. She could not refuse their invitation.
Since the incident at the hospital, Franklin would come home to have dinner occasionally at night, and
their relationship eased a lot. This time, he agreed as soon as Lucille asked him.
On the evening of the dinner, when Franklin and Lucille arrived at the Jules family's door together, they
saw Natasha come out to open the door for them.
That day, she was dressed in a pink dress with cute light make-up. She did not seem to be attending
an ordinary family dinner at all.
As soon as she saw Franklin, she greeted him with a shy face. "Franklin, you're here."
