She would continue being with him.
“But, I can be his secret lover,” Lulu said again.
She said it so casually, but Larry was thunderstruck. Blood rushed to his brain, and his temples started throbbing.
“Larry, I love you, and I can’t bear to see you hurt,” Lulu went on. “If I become this man’s lover, your parents won’t
need to move out of their house. You wouldn’t need to be troubled over money, too.”
She started crying.
“My parents wouldn’t force us to fork out 150,000 dollars, either. If I don’t get married, my brothers won’t be able
to get a share of my betrothal gifts.”
Larry wasn’t cunning, but he wasn’t a complete fool either.
He was simply too well-protected by his parents, and seldom encountered such a sly and conniving person since he
was a child. In addition, most of his colleagues at work were technical geeks.
Everyone spoke using technical terminologies, and few beat around the bush.
He quickly understood what Lulu actually meant, despite her saying she wanted the best for him. His grip tightened

“You just want to be a homewrecker, right? How much is he giving you each month, that you’re willing to give up on
our love?” he barked.
Lulu refuted his claim immediately. “I’m no homewrecker! His home is already wrecked. I’m sure he has other
secret lovers aside from me.
“Larry, don’t put it this way. I’m doing it for your sake. Really!
“He said that he’s giving me 300,000 dollars a month. I have no choice.”
Lulu shrugged; there was disdain in her eyes as she looked at her phone, as if Larry was standing right before her.
Before, she fancied him because he was born and bred in Richburgh. But now, his identity as a local in Richburgh
was nothing compared to cold, hard cash.
They haven’t even gotten married, and his family was already having trouble getting a mere 150,000 dollars.
If she married him, would she be able to enjoy life? No, she would probably suffer big time!
But if she went with her rich supporter, she wouldn’t need to work hard to maintain her social media account and
her fans. With all the coins and gifts from him, she could earn a fortune each month. 300,000 dollars per month
was equivalent to over 3 million dollars a year!
She could give up being a live streamer and just focus on serving him!
Larry’s heart turned cold at Lulu’s words. “You’re giving up our love just for 300,000 dollars?”
Love?
Hah. Was there any love between them?
Right from the start, Lulu simply felt that he was a good marriage partner.
Honestly, she sometimes felt disgusted kissing this fat tub of lard.
But seeing how simple and honest he was, and how well he treated her, she bore with it.
However, the talk of money right before marriage reminded Lulu that a family like Larry’s wasn’t good enough for
her!
Lulu was very clear in her calculations. “I can earn 300,000 dollars a month. Why should I sell my life to your family
for a meager 150,000? Larry, we aren’t suited for each other. Take your 150,000 dollars and go back home to your
parents. I don’t need them to move out of their house and make things difficult for them.”
They didn’t find things difficult. Things could always be worked out with family. As long as they had genuine love for

Life would go on, and things would always get better.
Larry wanted to say more, but his throat felt like sandpaper and he couldn’t speak.
Lulu was the one who spoke first. “Larry, you’re not good enough for me. Truly, it wasn’t love between us right from
the start.
“Goodbye. Don’t come looking for me in the future!”
With that, Lulu didn’t see Larry ever again. She didn’t even contact him, not even once.
Larry’s parents moved out of their house according to plan.
Having forked out 150,000 dollars, the old couple was left with only one person’s retirement fund. They had to
worry about having enough for medical insurance, and to give monetary help to their potential daughter-in-law
after she married Larry. Otherwise, she might get upset.
Therefore, they didn’t rent an apartment and instead stayed in a single-story house.
After things stabilized between Larry and Lulu, the old couple considered moving to another city and buying an
affordable apartment.
For the time being, they had to stay here.
