Chapter 79 (Part Two)
"Oh, did you shoot a movie?" It seemed that his grandpa was very happy. He even whispered a few words to her grandmother and then said to her with a smile, "We're lucky enough to have a chance to get on the big screen. As long as everything goes well, that's enough."
"How is my father now?" Melissa was worried with saying.
Grandpa's joy disappeared. He sighed and said, "The same as before, he was unwilling to go to the hospital."
Melissa was also sad. After a short silence, she said, "Grandpa, I remember that my father has an old comrade in armed group who is on good terms with him. That man is Austin. He often came to our home in the past. Do you remember him?" I think he is the only one who can persuade my father. "But now I don't know where Austin is. I want you to find him through my mother's connections and ask him to come out to persuade my father. I think my father will not listen to anyone but
Austin." NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.
Her grandpa thought for a while and replied, "It seems that there is such a person, but he has disappeared for a long time. He hasn't appeared since something happened to your family!"
Melissa explained, "Austin don't disappear. He hide himself." You have to ask my parents first. You can ask him to come out. As for the medical fees, you don't need to worry about it. I will transfer it to your card. When the time comes, you can say that the money is raised elsewhere. Anyway, it can't be said to be my money. In this case, my dad may go to the hospital. Please let him go to the hospital on Monday. That's the last day. Grandpa, please do me a favor!"
Her grandpa continued to asked, "But Melissa, why do you have so much money?" "It is one million!"
Melissa pretended to positive and said, "Grandpa, I'm acting." I've already had enough money for my wage and the past savings. Don't worry. I'll transfer the money to your card next Monday."
After she reassured her grandpa for a while, he was relieved and hung up the phone. She thought that her grandfather would be able to persuade her father after this call. Then if that case was settled, the rest would be the medical fee.
At that moment, Melissa's phone rang. She took out her phone and saw it was a call from Eric. She stared at the phone and hesitated for a while. At last, she closed her eyes and hung up the phone. But anyhow, she couldn't bother Eric any more. She were poor, but she couldn't always compromise to fate. Moreover, her situation was not yet out of control. It was Wednesday and she still had a few days left.
Then Melissa switched off her phone and began to search online. She found that there was 200 thousand in her savings over the years. She had received 200 thousand for a film or advertising endorsement. Although being a star was a little more hard and more complicated, but she earned money very soon, so she had also earned 200 thousand for an unknown person like her. In fact, she did save some money afterwards after she stayed with Colin. And it was useful at present.
Melissa rummaged through all the drawers and suitcases in the house. Then she found all the jewelry that Colin bought for her, such as the designer handbags and even the clothes. She packed them up and put them in two big suitcases. After that, she called several stores of second-hand luxury brands to charge them. After her negotiation, she sold for 300 thousand and was given a check.
In fact, over these years, Colin had invested her, including jewelry, designer clothes and shoes bags. All of this was worth several millions. But she didn't expect the deal to be sold at the price of more than 300 thousand. It was a great loss for Melissa. But she had no other choice. In the urgent situation, she had to sell the most expensive thing. And it was useless to keep them. And she would not give them to Colin.
Melissa thought that she deserved all this. After all, she had devoted five years of youth and a glorious career. If she hadn't been banned, it wouldn't be difficult for her to become a queen and she could make several millions in a short time as she had planned since she became a popular star before. But all of them were killed by Colin, so she wouldn't give back to Colin.
When Melissa gathered so much money, she immediately went to the bank to transfer the money.
When she went back home, she was still a rich woman wearing famous brands and carrying expensive purses. However, when she came out of her house, she found that she was so poor that she could only wear T-shirts, jeans and a very old bag, which were all the things she used in the University five years ago. After Melissa went to the bank, she transferred all the money to her grandfather's card, with only a few thousand left in her hand. Then she went to the telephone service center and changed a new phone card. When she finished all her work, it was already 8 p.m.
When she was hungry, she went to a very cheap rice noodles store on the street and bought a bowl of rice flour for dinner. Perhaps it was because Melissa was hungry, her bowl of rice powder and soup were all finished. After she finished the meal, she walked downtown for a while. In order to save money, she didn't dare to take a taxi. Instead, she found a bus stop and took a bus home.
Sitting in the car, Melissa stared outside at the twinkling neon lights. Suddenly, a heartfelt smile broke across her face. Although she was poor, she felt that she was very happy, as if she had returned to the college, without any shackles and pressure. Her life had just begun. Although she was in debt, she was free both mentally and physically. This was better than anything else. She felt that she would not fall so easily. Melissa's life was just about to cheer up!
