Chapter 278 Don’t Be Blinded by Money

Millis’s eyes were opened by Morgan. With his help, she was able to put her plan into action.

However, Millis might be young, but she definitely wasn’t an idiot.

She did make the recordings, but she lied to Morgan and said that she couldn’t make the videotapes because of Manny.

However, she secretly recorded Morgan planning the blackmail operation, which was on the videotape that had a unique number on

Millis had placed the hidden camera disguised as a piece of artwork in Manny’s room to test that it was working while she was putting on her makeup.

Her declaration about teaching Manny a lesson and making Jennifer listen to her was all about the videotapes.

If she did get ten million dollars, she certainly wouldn’t work as a maid anymore.

Furthermore, the perfume was something that Morgan had gotten for Millis, which had an aphrodisiac quality. The last time Millis had put on a bit of the perfume, neither Jennifer nor Manny had noticed anything out of the ordinary, and instead had been very stimulated. So, Millis planned to use more of it this time.

With the perfume and the cameras, she would be able to shoot a lot of scandalous things about Jennifer.

She had come up with an excuse, then gone to her room to fetch the perfume. Fantasizing how she would become rich off the recordings, she made the gloating statement in front of Manny’s mirror while freshening up.

On the other hand, Thomson had been hitting on Manny while they worked together, and had promised that he would marry her after he divorced his wife.

While Manny was older than Millis, she wasn’t as cunning, and she did plan to be together with Thomson.

Sensing that Jennifer preferred Millis, who was younger, Manny had planned to resign as well.

However, she was reluctant to say goodbye to her paycheck and her “special” bonuses.

Thomson occasionally asked Manny for money, and had her transfer it to his mother’s account, with the excuse that he didn’t want his wife to have access to it.

Last night, Thomson went looking for Manny on the spur of the moment.

He didn’t find Manny in her room, and instead found Millis talking about monopolizing Jennifer’s love and money.

Manny had been waiting for Thomson’s divorce to go through. She had transferred a lot of money to his mother’s account, but still hadn’t got any updates on the divorce.

She grew suspicious of Thomson’s motive, and was reluctant to give Thomson’s mother more money.

However, Manny gave him the excuse that Jennifer liked Millis more, so she didn’t get as much of a “caretaker fee” anymore.

Manny claimed that Jennifer was mentally weak and couldn’t fall asleep unless someone was next to her at night, and whoever spent the night with her would receive a “caretaker fee.”

Thomson didn’t doubt that. He could tell that Jennifer liked Millis better after the latter was hired.

Divorce proceedings weren’t going well for Thomson. It was likely that he would lose all of his money and have to pay years of alimony.

Manny had no money either, and judging from Millis’s statement, it seemed that she was about to oust Manny.

For Thomson, that was like breaking his moneymaker.

Thomson, who had been feeling anxious all this time, exploded with rage, and smashed Millis over the head with a random thing that he grabbed behind her. After he came back to himself, he cleaned up the mess, but mistook Millis’s perfume for Manny’s and left it in Manny’s room. After the assault, Thomson couldn’t leave the mansion to dispose of the weapon, so he could only hide it in the communal bathroom.

That way, nobody could trace it back to him even if the weapon was found. After learning of Millis’s injury in the morning, Morgan, who had been conspiring with her, knew very well that Millis shouldn’t have been in the living room at all because she had videos to take that night.

Jennifer, Manny and Millis couldn’t have been the only ones in the house last night.

Recalling how Millis told him that Manny was in her way, and thinking that he had lost ten million dollars, Morgan was so enraged that he stole Thomson’s baton and attacked Manny from behind.

He didn’t know that, just like him, Thomson could sneak into the mansion through a window.

The only difference was that Thomson snuck through Manny’s window, while Morgan snuck through Millis’s. Little did he expect that Luke would show up that morning. As a result, his simple yet effective plan to set Thomson up failed.

Selina, who had finished dinner and was resting as she digested the food, remarked, “Those men and women certainly worked really hard for the money, didn’t they?”

Luke agreed with her. “So, never be blinded by money.”

Selina rolled her eyes. “I’m very poor. You can stop worrying about that, because nobody has ever bedazzled me with money.”

Luke was amused.

While Jennifer and Manny were innocent, everyone else involved deserved what happened to them.

Jennifer Perry had paid for those special services, but nearly lost everything for it.

Neither Millis nor the security guards had been satisfied with their salaries, and they all wanted to earn more from the owner of the mansion.

Actually, everybody involved in the crime, including Jennifer herself, were slaves to money and desire, and couldn’t resist temptation.

Luke subconsciously looked at Selina, who was rolling over the couch like a caterpillar, and was amused. At the very least, he knew someone who preferred food over money.

Selina didn’t take a shower before dinner. Hence, while she was resting after dinner, Luke said, “Since you haven’t showered yet, and we didn’t work out during the day, we’ll go to the gym now.”

Selina was lost for words.In the end, Selina took a shower and went to bed before twelve without needing Luke’s help.

She had exercised her brain more than her body today, which was practically a holiday for her compared with the training she had suffered in the last few days.

After his shower, Luke confirmed that Selina had indeed gone to bed. He then returned to his workshop and continued working.

It was a blessing to be ignorant sometimes.

Selina, for example, could sleep soundly at night, while Luke had to bustle about every day.

What was ironic was that he had earned the ability to overwork by overworking. It was quite hilarious.

However, he wasn’t sure if Bullseye had already left, so Luke couldn’t go out just yet to clean up the streets, and could only stay home at night to make equipment for himself.

He actually quite enjoyed the work.
