Chapter 32: A More Cost-Effective Way of Cooperation

~7 min read 1,247 words

"Fuck you, Henry, you and this Easterner teamed up to play me?"

Olivia Hill flew into a rage instantly.

This Easterner knows everything; then the things I planned with Henry Thomas this morning were just a joke.

As for some Eastern Wizard, did she think Olivia is the kind of idiot who reached twelfth grade but can't read a full lesson text? She herself graduated from a prestigious school, was once a social elite with a good job; God is for praying and building social connections, not for taking seriously!

If God were useful, what would we need guns and rockets for? So there's only one explanation: Henry Thomas teamed up with this Easterner, wanting to get something from me.

Right, this bastard must want to do something to me! That's why Henry discussed with me, using a brilliant plan, to get 100 grand from this Easterner right in front of me.

The final price was just Audrey marrying him in a fake marriage, not even needing to sleep together, but needing to act out a play.

Henry deliberately gave a low price first, but when it came to Olivia, he wouldn't acknowledge that price, yet that Easterner could only sort out his status through her.

Finally, Henry and Olivia, these two who had planned it in advance, slowly ground the price up, grinding it to 100,000 US dollars, this very suitable price.

Since the other party wants to sort out status, they're definitely rich, but since they're an illegal immigrant, they definitely won't have too much, won't have the money for investment immigration.

But definitely not too little either; according to Henry's estimate, this 100,000 US dollars is probably about 1/3 of the other party's assets.

Spending 1/3 of one's assets to exchange for an American green card, although the transaction cost is high, the other party should be willing to swap.

Moreover, this deal has no risk; even if that Easterner is assessed as unqualified by the Immigration Bureau, it has nothing to do with Olivia Hill's family.

After deducting the 35% to be split with Henry, she could still keep several tens of thousands of US dollars in hand; with this money, as long as the Tax Bureau doesn't discover her tax evasion, she can hold out for a few years.

This way, she can calmly find a suitable job, and the three children, because they don't have to wander in displacement, can continue studying.

Audrey, in the fake marriage, can also redo twelfth grade properly and get into a decent university.

Henry said this morning that after she finishes twelfth grade, he can write Audrey a recommendation letter, recommending her for admission to California State University as an outstanding alumnus.

All this, Henry painted very beautifully this morning; for Olivia Hill, who was about to fall into despair, this was a ray of dawn, a ray of dawn crossing from hell into heaven.

To tell the truth, she's almost broken now.

The deal Henry spoke of this morning is already her last life-saving straw!

But after she gets kicked out of this single room with 800 dollars monthly rent, the court will strip her of custody of the two children under 18, send them to the welfare institute, and arrange for others to adopt them.

For her, this is a disaster! It's hell.

But fortunately, Henry came so timely.

But now, she realizes it's all fake.

Henry scheming the Easterner with her is fake.

The fake marriage business where she was about to get 100,000 US dollars reward is also fake.

The feeling of her about to break free from hell is even more fake!

Fuck!

"What?"

Henry, who was also a bit surprised, hearing Olivia's angry cursing, felt a bit baffled.

But on second thought, he understood what Olivia's words meant.

"No, you misunderstand, Olivia!

I didn't team up with him to play you! Okay..."

He turned to face Chen Yaozu, his face no longer wearing a fake smile, but asking very seriously.

"When did you find out about my plan with Olivia?"

Chen Yaozu stared at this lawyer and let out a cold laugh: "Just now, I did a divination the moment I met Ms. Hill.

Through divination I saw the details of what you discussed this morning.

What a huge appetite! Wanting to get 100,000 US dollars from me, too bad you picked the wrong target."

Olivia Hill thought in her heart this was still the Easterner in front of her and Henry acting in front of her; only Henry knows how wronged he is.

He indeed did not reveal any information, any plan, to this Eastern Chen in advance.

But the other party could actually clearly state that he only accidentally learned of old friend Olivia Hill's predicament and situation this morning, and just happened to recall that Grilos mentioned last night that an Easterner wanted status.

Only then did he accidentally think of this plan, which could both help that Easterner get status through marriage and help old friend Olivia Hill's family tide over the crisis.

The only cost was just letting that Easterner pay double the dollars.

Yes!

Marrying foreigners to help them get American green cards, this business has existed since long ago.

The recent price requires a cost of 50,000 US dollars; this is the market rate.

And he, Henry, just wanted to help his old friend get a bit more money, and get a bit more commission income himself.

All these thoughts arose only this morning by sudden coincidence; the only one who knew his plan was Olivia.

Looking at Olivia's expression just now, it's absolutely impossible she leaked it; then there's only one truth.

A truth hard to believe: that this Eastern Wizard truly possesses miraculous abilities as he himself said, for example right now...

"Of course, if you still don't believe I'm a Wizard, then I can tell you one more thing!"

Gaining trust, using it here seems inappropriate; putting it another way, Chen Yaozu needs to use his miraculousness to awe these two people, so his process of obtaining status has no major twists.

"Ms. Hill, your daughter has already gotten out of that neighbor's car behind the woods and is walking this way! Though her spirit seems not too good, like she hasn't slept enough.

She fell asleep in the car, just woke up and got out, so she stumbled and fell in a daze; a can of near-expiry kidney beans fell out and got a bit of mud on it! But the person isn't injured!

Look... she's back!"

Amid the two's shock, a young girl detoured past the greenery trees by the house lawn and appeared in their sight, indeed holding a bag of food in her arms, walking this way.

The two little ones originally standing to the side watching the adults chat, seeing their sister... holding food, ran over yelling excitedly.

Olivia Hill had sharp eyes, seeing the food bag the smiling Audrey was holding, the very top was indeed a can of kidney beans.

And Audrey's pants also indeed had a bit of what should be garage dust stuck to them.

So, what this Easterner said is true!

He truly saw, miraculously, that he really was a Wizard! Most importantly, he had just said he could see other people's future difficulties and Solve them.

Olivia Hill's eyes brightened; she Suddenly thought of another cooperation model, absolutely far more worthwhile than taking 100,000 US dollars!
