As soon as Enna went into the kitchen, he immediately went around the desk and checked everything once again.
Yep, everything was new.
He climbed onto the chair, pulled open the desk drawer, which was empty. His thin lips pressed together more tightly as his gaze fell back on the silk sheets on the bed.
Could it be that the BBC Radio’s annual party benefits are really that good? Or were these won by the women in a raffle at the party?
He jumped off the chair, wearing oversized slippers that didn’t match his age they made a clatter on the floor as he rushed back to his room. He then rummaged through his toy box and pulled out a telescope. He dashed onto the balcony, lifted the telescope, and started scanning the surroundings.
“…No suspicious men.”
After a round of observation, he found no one suspicious nearby.
He put away the telescope, murmuring to himself, “Strange, I can clearly smell a man’s scent in the house. How can there be no one here? Did I overthink it, and it’s just one of the women’s colleagues who came over?”
Seeing no one suspicious, he stowed the telescope back in the toy box, listened to Enna’s advice, went to the bathroom to wash his hands with soap, then found the Boonie Bears video and played it.
At the same time, he got hold of an iPad and opened the stock market page.
As he expected, the market had plummeted, with A-shares wailing all around. However, there was one stock that behaved strangely. Although it was falling as well, it didn’t drop as fast as the other stocks, and its fluctuations showed an occasional upward trend, though it was so small it could almost be disregarded.
Tobias’s finger tapped on the screen, calculating the timing of his next move.
He closed the stock market page and called up his bank account information. If Enna were here, she would have been stunned by what she saw.
Because the balance inside it was not the 4,500 dollars she had imagined, but a full 15 thousand dollars!
Tobias and Baron Lawrence had nearly identical profiles—both incredibly handsome! Once either of them became lost in thought, they focused entirely on the matter at hand, rarely being disturbed by the outside world.
Selling lollipops for so long had earned him a few thousand dollars, and doing small business among the children abroad had barely gathered him another ten thousand. On top of his previous three-thousand-dollar savings, the remaining nine thousand… Tobias’s thin lips pressed into a line as an image with a snotty, not at all ladylike, and chubby-cheeked Little Princess appeared in his mind.
He didn’t expect that after casually mentioning that he was short of cash, Rose would hurriedly hand him a bank card with nine-thousand dollars the following day. She even brazenly said that she was giving it to him.
Although he never planned to borrow money and not repay it, nine thousand dollars was still a considerable sum. He wondered where that idiot got so much money from, and whether it would be troublesome if she had stolen it from her dad.
He couldn’t worry about that now. He wouldn’t take that money for nothing!
Tobias took a deep breath, forcing himself not to think too much about it.
He reopened the stock market page and directly invested the full 15 thousand dollars into the continuously losing stock.
Having done all that, he calmly put away the iPad, focusing his attention on the Boonie Bears playing on the television screen.
Xiong Da and Xiong Er were pretending to be police officers, scaring Bald Qiang. Bald Qiang trembled with fear in the little cabin, occasionally showing his adorable foolish side.
He laughed uproariously, showing no sign of the early wisdom he had displayed when he had just invested 15,000 dollars.
At that moment, Enna came out with the prepared food. “Bobby, dinner’s ready. Hurry up and come eat.”
He pressed the pause button on the TV, jumped off the sofa, and sat down at the table, behaving himself perfectly.
The meal was exceptionally quiet. After he finished eating, Enna cleaned the tableware and sat down next to him, joining him in watching the Boonie
