NovelOnlineChapter 224
Sensing her troubled thoughts, Scott took out a bank card.
"Mommy, don't worry. We can pay for it."
The money in the card was Scott and Stellan's earnings over these few months of designing anti-
malware software for a few companies.
Although they were not yet ranked on the list of top hackers, they left their contact details on the dark
web because they were interested in the field. Since their quoted prices were not overpriced, there
were many small companies that sought them for programming services. As a result, the siblings had
earned a lot from doing that.
Patricia reached out and stroked his face. "Did you guys invest in the stock market with Zachary again?
I told you guys not to get involved in that. Don't worry about the money, I'll sort it out."
However, Scott shook his head. "Mommy, you told us not to get involved, so we won't dabble in that
again. This is what we earned from programming; it's legal."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtPatricia knew that the boys loved programming and had been taking lessons recently, but she did not
expect that they would be able to earn money from that.
She smiled. "Is that so? I've misunderstood you guys. Thanks, boys. I'll definitely work hard to earn
more money so you guys won't have to worry about money."
They walked over to ask for the bill from the nurse. Subsequently, they headed to the payment counter
on the first floor and paid the bill.
It was indeed expensive for merely one night's stay and some basic treatment. The total bill came up to
nearly twenty thousand.
Glancing at the bill, Patricia was relieved that Sylvie was fine despite wincing from the hefty cost.
Scott stuffed the bank card into her hand. "Mommy, from now on, you can keep this card with you. If
you wish to buy property, you can start taking a look too."
Scott and Stellan both knew that she was intent on purchasing her own property so that they would
have somewhere to call home and would not have to worry about all the constant moving.
Patricia's eyes instantly lit up. "How much is there in the account?"
A property would cost a significant amount.
Yet, Scott responded calmly, "It's slightly more than two million. It should be enough for a small one."
As soon as Patricia heard that, her eyes widened.
"That's such a large sum there!" The two boys are so capable! They've actually earned so much!
She hugged him. "We're about to have a place to call home!"
As soon as Scott saw the happy look on Patricia's face, he also revealed a faint smile.
At that moment, Patricia looked like an elated child while Scott seemed like a composed adult.
"Mommy, although Isaac helped you out last night, you've got to be able to differentiate things. This
should not affect your relationship at all. You don't need to feel indebted to him and feel obliged to
agree to be his girlfriend or provide any compensation to him. Stellan and I will express our gratitude,
so let us deal with that."
After all, he was someone who was about to get engaged last night and this man had called off his
engagement without much hesitation. Evidently, he was not a responsible person at all.
Scott and Stellan no longer trusted Isaac, so naturally, they did not wish for Patricia to be linked with
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmhim. It was enough for their relationship to be one of a boss and subordinate. That was it.
As Patricia listened to her son's words, she could not help thinking, Scott, you're just five years old.
You're just a kid… Sigh. My two sons are like adults. I wonder where they learn it from?
Eventually, they bought two sets of breakfast and she carried them, but Scott attempted to take them
from her.
"Scott, I can hold it."
"You're a girl, so let me do it."
After saying that, he turned around and left with the breakfast in his hands. Patricia glanced at his
straight-as-a-ramrod figure and smiled. This kid is quite the gentleman. I'm sure that he will treat his
girlfriend well in the future.
With that, she entered the hospital empty-handed with him as they headed back to the ward.
Inside the room, Sylvie sat on the bed with a Barbie doll in her arms and her large eyes flickered.
Stellan was fast asleep as he enjoyed sleeping the most, especially after staying up for the entire night.
Therefore, he could sleep the whole day without any guilt today.
She glanced toward the couch and noticed that Isaac was not present, prompting her to ask, "Where's
Mr. Arnold? Tell him that it's time for breakfast."
As soon as Sylvie heard that, she scanned the room. "Is Mr. Handsome here? Where's he? I'm in pain
and I need him to blow on my wound!"
