Half an hour later, after all the dishes were served, Laila wolfed all the food down, looking as though she had been starved for a long time.
Rosalie and Justin sat opposite her, with Steve in Justin's arms.

"Now that you're done, tellabout my biological parents." "At least givesliving allowance." Laila didn't have a single cent on her and she had to worry about her next meal after this. It would be foolish of her to miss this chance to fleece smoney from Rosalie.
"Take your phone out. I'll transfer you smoney," Rosalie said.
"I don't have a phone. I sold my phone away. I need cash." All her cards were frozen and she couldn't receive online payments, only cash.
"I don't have cash with me." "I don't care. Givecash or I'll keep silent." Laila was at the end of her tether. She couldn't be bothered with anything else except for getting her hands on smoney right now.
Rosalie turned around and said to Justin, "Justin, I'll withdraw smoney from a bank nearby. Helpwatch my aunt and don't let her run." Justin nodded. "Go ahead." "Don't worry, I won't run," Laila said. "I'm still waiting for you to givemoney." Rosalie walked out with her bag in hand.

"What is your relationship with my niece? Is this baby yours?" Justin's brows furrowed. Laila sounded as though she had no idea about the baby, so Justin said, "If you want to know the answer to that, ask Rosalie about it when she returns." He knew he couldn't shoot his mouth off before this woman while Rosalie was away. He could tell that this woman wasn't a good person.
Laila wanted to sound Justin out, but since he refused to speak, she could do nothing about it. What's more, Justin looked like one not to be messed with; the murderous aura about him frightened her.
There were many banks nearby and Rosalie visited the nearest one where she withdrew scash. Very soon, she returned to the restaurant and handed Laila the cash.
"Here's 3,000 dollars. Speak now." "3,000 dollars only?" Laila said, upset. "You're so rich, giving300,000 dollars would be nothing to you. Why are you so stingy?" "Laila, don't push your luck. If you don't want the money, et it. It doesn't really affectwhether I can find my biological parents, anyway. My curiosity isn't worth that much. et it if you refuse to speak." s en.kikistories Rosalie made a move to take the money away.
"Oh, don't!" Laila snatched the money back and stuffed it into her pockets. “I was just making a passing remark! Don't be so petty." 3,000 dollars was still money, and it could last her a while if she were careful with spending it.
"Now that you've taken the money, speak. Don't you dare skimp on the details, or I'll be nasty!" Rosalie's patience was slipping away. She had no feelings of kinship or affection for Laila who was way too wicked and selfish. Laila was capable of hurting her for personal benefit and wasn't worthy of her iveness. en.kikistories "Your parents were infertile but they wanted a child very badly. They tried many ways and means to get pregnant but their attempts were all in vain, so they ended up adopting a child from an orphanage," Laila began. en.kikistories n
