Chapter 26 You Think Too Highly Of Yourself
Perhaps I pulled too hard, and blood immediately overflowed from the back of my hand with the
needle inserted.
Mason lowered his gaze and looked at my hand, his beautiful eyebrows burrowing dangly I was afraid that he would get angry, so I quickly let go of his hand
Rosalie suddenly held onto Mason’s arm, her entire body almost leaning appar kom, and sandsy smiled at me.
“Ms. Clark, do you have something to say to Mason?”
It’s okay, Mason is

Isaw how clingy his sweetheart was to him, so I didn’t dare ask him in front of his sweetter if he would come back at night.
If I made him sad, let alone borrowing money, he might punish me in some way, Just when my mind was in a state of chaos, Mason suddenly asked me indifferently, “What’s the
matter?”
This moment was considered the best opportunity to borrow money.
Because I couldn’t guarantee whether he would go back at night, maybe once he walked out of the hospital, I would never see him again.
Seeing that I hadn’t spoken for half a day, Mason turned around and le
I hurriedly said,“Can you… can you lend me some money?”
Mason’s footsteps halted.
He turned around and looked at me, with a deep and mocking expression in his eyes. “It turns out you were borrowing money.” He chuckled lightly, with a hint of coldness and self–mockery in his laughter.
I couldn’t understand his expression.
I said, “I will definitely give it back to you.”
He sneered and asked, “What do you have to offer?”
I looked into his eyes, filled with icy disdain, and suddenly remembered the dream from last night.
What he wanted most was to humiliate me and make me suffer.
I pursed my lips and said with difficulty, “However you want me to repay,
“…Ha,” he sneered, “You think too highly of yourself.”
You thought too highly of yourself!
Yeah, the one he liked was never me.
I will repay.
Where did my confidence come from again, always thinking that he would help me. A sudden pang of pain shot through the heart, and the eyes welled up with a wave of bitterness.

cold dance and then turned around and walked Rosalie quickly grabbed him and exid,“Mason, just lend her some money, after all, she is your ex–wife, just pity her a line?
Toor her?” Mason sneered, “There are so many páriful people in this world, do I have to pity every single one of them?”
The two of them entered the elevator, and as I watched the closing elevator doors, everything in front of my eyes became blurry.
A little girl passed by and exclaimed in surprise, “Oh my goodness, sister, your hand is bleeding on the back, did you accidentally get a cut? Hurry up and go ask the nurse sister to rebandage it for you,”
I watched the little girl, tears kept falling down.
The little girl quickly comforted me, “Sister, don’t cry. Pe strong, I also stayed in the hospital alone. My mom and dad brought me here and then left. They said they were busy.” I wiped away my tears and smiled at her, “Sister didn’t cry, sister just wanted to go to the bathroom, no one helped, so she was a little anxious.”
“Then I helped my older sister.”
The little girl said and then took the IV drip from my hand and held it up high. I looked at the little girl, and my sad mood was instantly healed.
Yeah, what’s there to be sad about?

The effect of hanging water is much better than the effect of antipyretic medicine 1 no longer felt dizzy and lightheaded, and I also felt much I was just very anxious in my heart.
While I was fetching water, my dad called me and asked if I had raised the money I said I would reply to him later.
But he seemed impatient, as if he couldn’t wait, and called every ten minutes. In total, he made four calls.
I finally said angrily, “If they really want to cut off your limbs, then I’ll take your place and let them cut off my limbs. That should be fine, right?*
My dad finally calmed down.
But it was already evening, how could I raise money?
Who else can I find besides Mason?
But Mason also refused to lend me money.
What should I do?

I sat by the roadside in a daze for a long time before returning to the villa.
Paulina had already prepared the meal. When she saw me coming back, she quickly greeted me to come and eat.
But I had no appetite at all.
I returned to the room, exhausted, leaned against the door panel, and started crying helplessly.
At that moment, Grayson’s phone rang.
I quickly wiped away my tears and answered the phone, “Brother.”
Grayson asked anxiously, “How is the money coming along? It’s already the third day today.”
Afraid that he would worry, I pretended to be cheerful and said, “You don’t need to worry, already raised the money.”
Grayson was surprised, “How did you manage to raise the funds?”
I have
He paused for a moment, then exclaimed with sudden realization, “It’s Mason, isn’t it?”
I remained silent, and he continued, “That’s true, three million is just a drop in the bucket for him. If you ask for his help, he will definitely assist you. His generosity is much greater than imagine.”
I was taken aback, realizing that Grayson still didn’t know that my dad had lost another 5 million.
Well, in this situation, my dad definitely wouldn’t dare
to tell Grayson.
I reckon my dad didn’t even know that Grayson was hospitalized.
Grayson added, “However, no matter how wealthy Mason is, we borrowed from him, and we will definitely have to repay him in the future.”
“Well, I know,” I said with a cheerful laugh.“Brother, don’t worry, just focus on recovering. I’ll come see you tomorrow.”
“Okay.”
Hung up the phone.
I leaned against the door panel and daydreamed.
Soon, my mom’s phone call came again.

As soon as the phone was answered, my mom started crying, Aria, can we really raise that money? Your dad can’t have his limbs cut off by them.”
“Aria, no matter what, you must find a way
“Yeah, daughter…”
My dad snatched the phone and said, “Just try to please Mason more. If he’s happy, he will definitely give you money. One or two million is not much for him.”
I closed my eyes in discomfort, without even the strength to acknowledge my father.
My dad and my mom were arguing again over there.
My mother said, “It’s all because of you. You made the whole family worried. If you gamble again in the future, I will divorce you!”
My dad:“Blame me, blame me. You always blame me every day. When I used to make money to give you a good life, why didn’t you say anything?”
My mom:“What money did you earn before? That was nothing but…”
My dad:“Alright, alright, the most important
important thing now is to raise
money.”
Then my dad asked me,“Aria, when exactly can you raise the money? Dad is really scared in his heart.”
I closed my eyes and weakly said, “Before midnight.”
If I couldn’t raise the money by twelve o’clock, then I would go to those people at the gambling den and let them chop off my limbs.
