Aurelia Shaw's lips curled into a faint smile, "How could I forget? I've been so busy lately. The filming for the drama just wrapped up, and I'm preparing for the next role. It's been so hectic, Grandpa, your birthday is next month, isn't it?"
Old Master Nightshade laughed heartily, "I thought you, little girl, might have forgotten."
"How could I forget!" Aurelia raised her voice, "Even if I forget my own birthday, I wouldn't forget yours."
Old Master Nightshade was the one who genuinely treated her well in this family. However, many things happened later. Half a year before her accident, Old Master Nightshade had a heart attack and suddenly passed away.
At that time, she was filming with the crew and missed the chance to see him off for the last time.
This has always made her feel very guilty.
Kai Nightshade laughed twice, "Come back with Mason for a meal in a few days, don't really wait until my birthday to come, otherwise I'll feel like you've 'used' me and then ditched me, little girl."
Kai Nightshade mumbled, a bit playfully.
Aurelia couldn't help but chuckle, "How could I dare, I'll come to see you in a few days."
Seeing that she didn't mention Mason at all, Kai Nightshade sensed something and casually added, "Bring that boy Mason back with you, after the wedding he hasn't come back to see this old man. Hmph! Once back, I'll have to give him a piece of my mind!"
Aurelia said nothing, but after a couple more reminders from Kai Nightshade, the call ended, and she glanced at the time—it was already 8:59.
Is Jovana Shaw really bold enough to intend not to give this money?
Just as this thought hadn't settled, her phone dinged with an incoming message, a bank deposit notification: "An amount has been transferred to your account online, deposit amount 1000000, account balance is..."
They actually transferred it right on time.
Jovana's monthly allowance was only about two hundred thousand, considering her personality, she would never ask other wealthy girls to lend her money. The fact that she dared to agree must mean she thinks her allowance card is still with Clara Philips.
Too bad, she had already secretly taken that bank card back.
Surely by now, that mother and daughter pair are still puzzled over where the bank bit has gone.
This one million must have been pieced together from Clara Philips's private funds.
Aurelia suddenly felt joyful, she made a call to a mysterious number, "Hello, help me send something to City First High School, yes, specifically for Jovana Shaw, the student council president, to receive..."
At this moment, Jovana Shaw and Clara Philips sat dejectedly on the ground, the bedding overturned, the room in disarray. Clara clutched the phone, her arm weakly hanging to the floor, her gaze forward filled with a mix of heartbreak and deep-seated malicious hatred.
"Mom, what should we do now? Is that one million just going to Aurelia Shaw?" Jovana Shaw's eyes also glinted with reluctance and hatred.
Aurelia dared to calculate against her!
"How could I let her have it so easily?" Clara Philips gritted her teeth. A whole million felt like a chunk was carved out of her heart, "I must find a way to get it back from her!"
Clara's eyes glittered with a fierce and greedy light.
"But mom, I feel like Aurelia is different this time. Has she found out what we've been doing?" Jovana asked suspiciously.
"Impossible!" Clara said with certainty. That girl had been deceived by them for over ten years. If she had discovered something, she would have found out long ago, not just now. Yet, reflecting on recent events, Clara wasn't so sure anymore.
